1966 Chevrolet Caprice Description
1966 Chevrolet Caprice matching number big block 396, turbo 400, bucket seats/console with gauges.Time capsule! Muscle car with luxury features. 70,000 original miles. As close to 100% original as you'll find. Original paint! Original interior, all matching number, drivetrain (including a12 bolt rear end),100% rust free southern car. Original A/C compressor that still works! Yes the original A/C compressor still blows cold!!! Engine runs exceptionally smooth, you can barely hear it run. By far the smoothest running big block Chevrolet I've ever seen.The factory Quadrajet is perfect! Never even a hint of hesitation, not on start off or when the 4 barrel opens up. Very dependable, drive anywhere. Starts as soon as the starter turns, you can't hardly touch the starter without it cranking. Turbo 400 transmission, shifts excellent, smooth shifting. Runs and drives like an absolute dream! Like taking a trip back to 1966. Rides like you're riding on air yet handles surprising good. Not even a hint of play in the steering. Just really unbelievable how great this car drives. Rare console and gauge package and all the gauges work! Still has a hint of new car smell in the trunk. The original lacquer shines remarkably for it's age. Lots of documentation including, original build sheet as well as dealer paperwork, owners manual etc. 3 original T3 headlights. Has a very few flaws, there's a few nick's and scratches but remember the paint is 54 years old.There is one small noticeable dent in the right rear quarter panel, I've done my best to show it in the photos.The driver seat has one tear and slight side wear and the dash pad has a crack. The headliner has one seam that the thread has turned loose and one hole in the fabric. Honestly since it's the original headliner, I would probably have someone resew the seam and not worry about the small hole. Otherwise the original interior is perfect. Even the steering wheel, not one crack or any sign of sun damage as the car has been garaged all of it's life. All the headlights, taillights, dash lights, turn indicators, brake lights, backup lights, A/C, horn etc. all work as they should. Has all 4 bumper guards. Comes with the original wheels and hub caps (in great shape) as well as 4 BF Goodrich tires with less than 500 miles on them, mounted on the original wheels. All necessary work has been done to make this car road ready with oem parts where available. Fuel system and brake system have been gone through, New power brake booster, new master cylinder, wheel cylinders, hoses etc. New original style battery. New shocks, carburetor rebuilt, new water pump, new fuel tank and sending unit, new fuel pump, new points, cap, rotor, plugs+wires, new valve cover gaskets. New fan clutch. New Power steering hose. New belts etc.I have thousands in receipts of recent work done.Needs nothing! I would drive this car to California tomorrow and be glad to do it. Beautiful Color (Aztec Bronze) Would be happy to show the car. Pictures do it no justice, looks even better in person. Car is located 15 mi south of Atlanta Ga. This is a rock solid, rust free southern car that has been in the south all of it's life and garaged all of it's life. You are looking at the original paint. Even the exhaust system is original except for one muffler that has been replaced, There is absolutely no rust on this car. I hate to let this one go, this is a once in a lifetime car. Truly a great automobile, in amazing unrestored condition, not to mention rare. Undoubtedly investment grade that will only go up in value. Unrestored cars this nice don't come up for sale often. Must see to appreciate, No disappointments, I believe in 100% disclosure and I have done my best to represent the car true.
