The exhaust is also Nassau Blue. But it's my favorite body style.

My grandmother owns a racing red 1966 model, but it doesn't have the original engine, it has a 383 stroker under the hood, but still has the side dump exhaust and rims seen on the car in the video. Also has an all-red interior too. I was told it was tuned to over 400 horsepower and I did get to drive it once in a parking lot with my father, the whole car vibrates at idle. It was heart racing experience even at slow speeds.

That's a beautiful vette, but she's smokin out of the right bank. One of the drawbacks of restoring a car and trying to use every single original part, you can make it look pretty but it's still got some wear on the inside.

Perfect car for a Friday night Cruise by the coast

I got my grandpas corvette it’s been sitting since 1975 it’s a big block manual black interior and the exterior is like a smoke gray it’s all original

I had one just exactly like this one. I can't believe I ever got rid of it. Beautiful car!!!!!!

I bought this exact model and color but with the 450/427 engine. I bought it used 1 year old from a hair salon owner who found the Vette to 'confining' for him. I really miss it.

64,65 & 66 are under priced and overlooked sometimes I think, unless it's a rare optioned one. The 65' 396 vette is an underated one.

probably would have been a good idea to put a new set of rings in that 427 before they dropped it back into that Corvette.

I just got back from driving my 66 427 (450 HP) and yes its true art and scary thrills driving this skinny tire beast.

That looks like it could be the one a friend of mine pulled out of a barn in the early 90's. It was his uncle's who had died in Vietnam. It had the hard top and the fluids had been drained, all we did was fill up the fluids and it was ready to run. Gorgeous car, but he traded it for a semi to make a living for his family.

Gorgeous car it would be a nice one to go for a cruise on nice cool evening love the color and the fact it has a big block

I had a L88 SS Nova copo with a 4 speed And 410 rear gear badass period 💯💯👍👍😎

My mouth is watering. Check out that healthy "scratch" in 2nd gear at 4:03-4:05!

Me: Chrome bumper C3s are my favourite. *Watches MCOTW* daaaaaaamn. Now I want a C2 as well. I have a 1974 L48 coupe, but I still want a BB '69 convertible. That's the dream csr since I was 6-7 years old. But that C2 though...

Beautiful car indeed, but right bank oil burning is awful, what is it, rings???

Would have loved to take this to the American Graffiti Festival & Car Show in Modesto this past June!

Absolutely Beautiful !

stunning, comes to mind....

Man does that thing burn oil

Nassau Blue is named after the speed weeks in Nassau Bahamas not the waters, just about all Corvette paint color names back in the day were named after races or racetracks.

I’m surprised it doesn’t have the original Kelsey knock off rims. I suppose maybe the original owner ordered it with hubcaps ?

Kevin, you're a great guy. But, if the brothers had a knockout blonde with huge hoots and a skimpy Nassau Blue bikini doing this presentation, I for one would have watched it twice.

Needs a ring job on the pistons, the oil is burning Nassau blue!

Thay should do a nother vid on the 1967 l88 vet but drive it around this time

Want to have it all? This was your car. Beat anything that dared to challenge you at a stop light and pretty enough to "wow" any woman you dated on Friday night. An Eat your Cake and have it too car if there ever was one for sure.

Why's it blowing smoke? Seems like someone liked too beat it✓

Not a good car to use as an example, more blue smoke from the exhaust, than the tires....valves or rings, maybe both.....$$$

Still for sale?

Hour about the black white skunk hooded vette behind the blue one being featured?

Do the brothers ever sell any cars?

was the blue smoke comin out the side pipes

336 rear end was not available with a close ratio. Too slow off the line. close ratio was only available 4.11 and 4.56 am I wrong?

I agree with Fred, except the exhaust color in not original. Let me go to the Home Depot and check the swatches.

I wonder if the color (Nassau Blue) would look on a classic first generation Chevrolet Camaro? Speaking of Camaros, can we see a review over the new 2017 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1?

How does the fuel mileage look?

Greg, it seems like you were wanting to add something to your statement about the 4 barrel feeding the 427. Was there another option like a 6-pack choice? This is one sweet Vette!

They had a lot of style and "feel" but the top of the line 2021 model can just about touch 200 mph. Maybe that convertible could use wider tires at the back, are burning up with all the torque that 427 cranks out .A better grip will improve acceleration

keep it cool drive it with out the hood

Needs a set of rings or valve stem seals.

I can't believe they were making that power back then 🤘 But why does it still seem slowwww??

Pity about the valve seals.

I prefer small block high performance engines

I wonder what the 'actual' hp was...

3:36 gears, seems awfully high.?

No A/C??? It was only $400+. By far the most expensive option for the year. ($3,270 in today's dollars). I guess that was a bit much back then ....

Needs new rings or valve seals

66 was the first year of the 427 not 65 .in 65 you could get 396/425 the same motor that was in the z16

oh, what say, the "Brothers" paid about a half-Mil for one ???

Needs a rebuild, the engine is smoking from thr right bank.

i see this engine is burning oil

Oil burner

😊

Pretty car but they drive like trucks, handle like crap and barely can stop.

The smoke is under power. my guess it's the rings.

Sure is burning a lot of oil out of the driver side ..... NOT GOOD.

Like an old old gun...I wouldn't fire it, it's liable too blow up...

A new one makes far more sense. Great for 1966 not so much in 2017.
