  • Instead of just slowly driving to a show somewhere I take a beautiful 1966 Chevrolet Corvette on a spirited drive. A couple details are:
    327 with side pipes
    Tremec 5 - speed
    fully restored
    OVER 400 HP to the rear wheels
    This car is fast and the exhaust sounds amazing, it is a great example of a C2 Corvette.

    I love the 327 350. Great street motor. With the 5 speed OD it's also must be a pleasure to cruse on the interstates.

      @@davesracingchannel9261 Subscribed--thanks again for the link. Quarter-mile in the high 7s--that's one helluva mean engine! Is Bill running aviation gas in it? I'd imagine that car would just barely run on the 93 octane stuff you get at the pump. I like watching the throttle linkage behind the carburetor(s)--reminds me of 1960s rails and pro-stocks!

      The good news is, In your lifetime the value of these will drop when there are few people left who want to own them. Everyone will own self driving cars- if they own cars at all. In order to own this car today you need expendable income, storage space and knowledge of how to maintain it. Everyone down to babies in strollers knows it’s cool, but owning one is a different thing. This is not to say you should not have the goal of owning one, it’s just the reality. And when your wife says you need a self-driving mini van because you have 3 kids, you will wind up with a self-driving mini van.

    400 rwhp? You wish! I have a ‘65 injected coupe. The heads have been ported, 1.6 rockers, dyno tuned, and runs 355 @ the wheels @ 7grand……..with 1 7/8” open headers. You have the stock ramshorn manifolds, and if they’re what the car came with, they’re probably the smaller 2” pipe version, which would match the low redline in your tach. Nice car though.

    Is the shifter a MGW or the standard Tremec that comes with TKO600? Also curious if that's a leather stitched steering wheel & where you got it (looks wonderful). We have a Momo Retro 360mm wheel & the standard Tremec shifter (attached to proper round-shaft Hurst I got on eBay) in our '69 Z/28 which has been easy to use & quiet (doesn't transfer trans noises or rattle like some shifters do), but my all-time fave has been the MGW we had attached to a G-Force in our 500 WHP turbo S2000 (w/Cobra 8.8" IRS) for SCCA auto-x. Love the video of this Vette - my favorite body style & ergonomics.

      Because it's the best-looking scooped hood design every conceived... that's why.

    • @Snoopy7666
      @Snoopy7666 5 років тому +2

      it's a restomod... lots of things changed in the restoration process as per the preferences of the owner... and there are thousands of mid-year Sting Rays with the big block stinger design hood... it was incredibly popular, regardless of the engine under the hood... it was the most bad-ass beautiful hood design ever.
