1966 Chevrolet Chevelle 454 Description

This 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS tribute has everything you want. That means big block power, four-on-the-floor, full midnight package and a muscle car soundtrack that makes traffic clear the way for you. If you're a fan of the early Chevelle bodies, with its beautiful flying buttress C-pillars and subtle aggression, then this car should ring all the right bells. The shine of the black paint takes advantage of modern clearcoat. Underneath, the metalwork is quite good, featuring good... gaps all around and leading to a deep luster that only comes from a lot of hard work. In fact, the mirror-like chrome bumpers rival the paint for shine. This was the first year for the SS396 as its own separate model, and this tribute gets the details right with the blacked-out grille, faux hood vents, ribbed lower trim panels, and proper Super Sport badging all-around. Open the door, and you're greeted to a handsome package that completes the ultra-desirable full black presentation inside & out. The bucket seats with center console perfectly captures this Chevelle's comfortable and performance dual-purpose nature. The seats, door panels, dash pad, and headliner all have a deep, black appearance. So you know there was a quality investment here. And while the clean/crisp look makes this easy to share with family and friends, this hardtop really makes the driver the top priority. You get a grippy wood-rimmed steering wheel on an Ididit tilt steering column, and the Hurst shifter is the ideal place to rest your right hand. Plus, the handy full auxiliary readout package and tach are glowing white within the dark interior. We know this one wears the 396 era-correct badging of the time, but it's always great to see even MORE displacement under the hood. The 454 cubic-inch V8 upgrade is showcased with a bright air topper, fabricated valve covers, and bold block all radiating from within the black engine bay. More than just look nice, this big block has been given a healthy increase in performance with a Holley four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock Performer 2.0-intake, HEI ignition, and a set of long tube headers. Plus, you have complete control over this enhanced V8 and its rumbling soundtrack thanks to the four-speed manual transmission. And any time you really want to bring the thunder, the exhaust cutouts will make this all-black Chevelle growl with intimidation. But no matter how you use this coupe, the power steering, front disc brakes, and modern BF Goodrich tires make it easy to enjoy this powerful machine. The right color, the right power, and the right features combine for the right muscle machine. So don't let this hardtop slip away, call today!
