Google, but it won’t tell you much. Just coupe or convertible, and the series number. You can get a little more information with the trim tag decoder. Color, production date, which plant, but not much more.

Did you try the basic Google search..."VIN Decoder for a 1966 Corvette"? You will get results. Dennis

But it still won't decode anything about the car that you don't already know. No options or features are in the Vin and no records are available for figuring out what your car was except for coupe or convertible. It's not like the modern 17 digit Vin's that gave you all that. The C2's do not have that information available anywhere. I gave the information available if you decode the trim tag, but there is none for the Vin tag. Click here for the trim tag decoder.
