I have watched others ask how many of these were made with these options, or this color and certain options, many times there is no definitive answer available. So I was just curious as to how many on this forum have 1966 427 cars with factory A/C. If you do just state whether it is a coupe or convertible and color. If you want to give the build date that would be nice.
So that being the request, I will start with mine, Red convertible, radio and A/C only options besides the engine,trans and 336 posi. Also it is a soft top only no HT. Date D 7
I think it will be interesting to see how many of the original production (875) are still around.

I know of two that the owners don't post on Internet forums.

The one is a white on white and blue convertible with all the options and the other is a yellow with black coupe.

I'd ask the mods to change your posting title. "Another survey" is pretty vague. Make it specific to what you want to know and I bet you'll get more responses. Something like "Survey: How many '66 427's with factory AC?"

One of my customers with a collection of about 50 cars, including 24 Corvettes, has a Rally Red and black interior 66 427/390 4 speed air coupe. I think it also has power steering and power brakes.
