Volvos sport a unique personality; they aren't the everyday classic motor you see around, and that makes for turned heads and engaging conversation on every drive out. This 1966 Volvo 122S Coupe sports a light blue exterior and really plays into its classic car features. Speaking of its features, a closer look reveals a clean exterior that sports all its chrome and exterior components. You even get a set of period-correct Volvo hubcaps with steel wheels. Need further proof of how clean this classic is? A peek underneath, and you are most definitely convinced that you are in the presence of a machine that has extreme attention to detail. The black interior cabin of this 1966 Volvo 122S is far from what a race-inspired classic should look like, but step in and you may change your mind. The interior cabin is mostly original and features a set of Corbeau Seats that don't take away from that classic car appeal but also give you the best driving position. The current owner reports new wiper blades in place for better visibility, and 3-point retractable seatbelts help uphold that quintessential Volvo personality.
Pop open the hood of this 1966 Volvo 122S, and what you will find in place is some spicy performance that takes shape with a rebuilt 1.8-litre "B18" inline-4 motor that is reported to have been bored 30 over. The current owner reports some very tasteful upgrades for some peppy performance. In place are SU carburettors for smooth performance, and even a Weber 2-barrel downdraft carburettor that is not installed but included in the sale. The performance upgrades are met with Bilstein shock absorbers and rebuilt front disc brakes for enhanced handling. In true tail happy fashion, this Swedish powerhouse channels all its performance to its rear wheels through a manual transmission.

The Corvette bagged the nickname "America's Sports Car" almost immediately after its 1953 debut. The reason being that it was the first American Sports Car to successfully rival European models. The second generation of the Corvette was a significant period for the company. During that time, Corvette saw record sales, introduced a new engine, and adopted the two-word "Sting Ray" branding. This stunning example of the 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible belongs to the second generation. With a reported 6964 miles on its odometer, this beauty is currently located in Round Rock, Texas. If you are in the market for classics that carry a rich history and a Sunday cruiser that harks you back to olden times, this is the perfect car for you.
