Sweet '66 Coupe!

Is there still a 427 under that Big Block style bonnet?.

I think it has a 350 under the bonnet, would be surprised it it was anything bigger than that....

Another pics of said car...

That Corvette must be quick with its fibreglass body. Dont see those anymore. Very nice indeed!

I saw the car a year ago and it was a big block which according to a mechanic was a 454.Also don't think for a moment that a road going 'Vette is light 'cos it's glass. With that ladder chassis and monster motor, box and rear diff they're damn heavy. Grunty.
