The 1966 Corvette styling was similar to the previous model, but there were subtle differences, including the addition of the Corvette script (elongated vertical style) to the hood, and a plated, square mesh, cast grill. The 427 cubic-inch engines were introduced in the 1966 model. Corvettes with these engines received the special bubble hoods first seen on 1965's with 396ci engines. Seats were similar to 1965, but 1966 seats had additional pleats in the upper and lower sections for better weight distribution at the seams. The knock-off wheel option continued, but with a dull-finish center cone instead of bright. The area between the fins was painted dark gray. Back up lights became standard equipment on the 1966 model. They were incorporated into the existing rear inboard taillight housings. Holley carburetors used with some engine applications previously were standard with all 1966 engines.
