Vehicle Description

Stk 2326 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS

There are some great mid-year SS396 Chevelles on the market, but none nicer than this 1966 Retro-convertible. Our SS396 (Code 138....) received a frame-off restoration in 2014 and is pristine. The exterior was re-shot in two-stage with Chrysler Viper Red (9 base/5 clear). It is stunning. Polished American Racing wheels (17") provide a nice accent and the tan power-operated convertible top (w/boot) is flawless. The handsome tan leather interior is much more inviting than GM's original concept. A full console holds the Muncie shifter and a tilt-wheel column mounts a Z-28 style 3-spoke alloy wheel. Comfort features include Saden air conditioning and an AM/FM/Cassette stereo system. The 396ci 'Rat' was bored .040 over and totally rebuilt. This may well be the original motor, but it is difficult to confirm, as most GM engines had no stamped VIN number in 1966. Fuel is furnished by a Holley double-pumper (w/manual choke) mounted on the Chevrolet manifold. Spark is furnished by an electronic ignition and the sound is magnificent through a set of full tube headers and free-flowing exhaust. The 4-speed manual transmission transfers power to a 10-bolt posi-traction differential with 3.70:1 gears. A carefully detailed chassis mounts power steering and power disc/drum brakes. The current owner (5 years) spared no expense to create a very special car. Look at the photos, but understand that this car must be seen to be fully appreciated. This SS396 is ready for a new owner who will truly value this classic Bowtie. . ALL VEHICLES SOLD "AS IS".IS'
