It has just the right measures of ride-handling and acceleration that would make it the nuts for all kinds of driving, especially long trips. It's a fun car for today's dull traffic, and if it helps relieve the tedium of travel, you can't ask much more." - Hot Rod Magazine, February 1966 According to the original body tag, VIN tag, and Protect-O-Plate, 138176F113879 was completed in the second week of October 1965 at the Flint, Michigan plant as a 1966 SS396 Sport Coupe in Lemonwood Yellow over Ivory Vinyl bucket seats, with tinted windshield, comfort and convenience group, automatic “Powerglide” transmission, center console, rear antenna and rear speaker. Helen Cassida of Indianapolis, Indiana purchased the Chevelle new through Jim Harris Chevrolet-Buick of Greencastle, IN on January 1, 1966. The car eventually made its way East, and more recently, under the care of a prominent Florida physician. Now wearing period correct Marina Blue paintwork, the Chevelle would receive a significant amount of mechanical servicing, upkeep and repairs over the last 5 years under previous ownership. Over $46,500 invested, with all records on hand. This includes attention to all auxiliary systems and components, along with tasteful blend of period and contemporary upgrades for modern drivability, reliability and ease of use.
