Vehicle History - Attention All Current and Previous 1966 Coupe Owners

[John S.]

Greetings NCRS Members.
I have been on a mission to find any old documentation on my 1966 Coupe. I have found information on early previous owners but not any original documentation, dealer location, original owner name, etc. I am hoping the the historical shipping information from the NCRS will soon give me a fresh starting point. I know from shows that many early Corvette owners have protecto plates that are from other vehicles. It would be great to learn that someone has mine. I am hoping that by posting this thread that someone may see something that provides some valuable information. Finding any thread of original documentation such as the POP would be priceless. Here is the particulars on my coupe.

Note: We believe it was a California car. Anyone that ever owned a '66 Mosport Green Coupe is encouraged to review carefully.

I suggest sending Bill a message from Automotive Ancestry.

He helped us tremendously with tracking down a past owner of our Corvette. I would not hesitate to use his service again!

I second that. Bill is the MAN! Using him as we speak, so far he has found a bunch of owners and a file folder of paper work.
