Claimed Original Paint '66 Corvette L-79 Coupe
 
Neat car with terrible pics - but if it's really a 3200 mile car, that's a heck of a find.

I've seen a number of early Corvettes with their odometers rolled back during a restoration...so I tend to doubt the low-mile claim unless I can inspect the car. Door gaps and trim fit also look non-factory to me....

----Reproduction door panels, seats, and carpet. Under hood wrong air-cleaner, replacement radiator, etc, etc, etc! Safe to say the miles may have run over 99,000 or the ODO was clocked!

----Took a second look. Power window wiring tube in the door is now body color (should always be black). Indicates at the very least a partial repaint. Missing all the shielding with the excption of the dist cover itself. Probably way more stuff we can't see!....Bill S

The font on the odometer does not look factory typical

Lots of questions on the sellers claim of milage. Full exhaust has been replaced and the seats look as if they've been recovered. Bill noted other items such as radiator.
