Exterior

Our 1966 Sting Ray is beautiful and has the great repainted Milano Maroon that is the correct 988 code paint flowing over the body with the addition of the stinger big block hood, louvers behind the front wheels that help increase air flow through the engine compartment, and curving rear fenders, that gives it both an aggressive and sophisticated look.

All the 427 emblems, the rear bumpers and taillights, door handles, the flip-up gas cap remain in as-new condition as well and it wears both the black fabric convertible top and a hardtop too.
