1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Description
A real-deal 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS396 with a sharp presentation is already an attractive idea. But dig deeper into all the right features - including the fresh big block power and rebuilt four-speed - and soon you realize just how irresistible this deal really is.
White is the right color when you want a car that has timeless appeal. This is even a later application that has a good clearcoat luster. So it makes an already attractive SS396 even more appealing. And the white paint also means you really pick-up on the black SS grille and blackout rear panel. There are more great Super Sport details, including vent trim hood, ribbed rocker panels, and all the correct badging - right down to the Super Sport scripts on the rear. More than just sporty, the big chrome bumpers, bright Rally wheels, and the flying buttress C-pillars have a sophistication that make us love this year Chevelle.
The interior shows that the overall charm of this pillarless hardtop is as clear as white and black. Nice seats, good door panels, clean carpeting, and a smooth dash give this one an instant appeal. And all this darkness is broken up by tasteful bright trim, including on the seats. This is a car that's comfortable for plenty of family and friends, and there's even an upgraded AM/FM stereo with aux input to keep them entertained. But the true appeal of this coupe is that it's a driver's machine. Bucket seats, a center console, and a bright floor shifter are great classic SS elements. Plus, you have handy upgrades like Chevy's NK4 sports steering wheel and a Bosch gauge package for temp, oil, and volts are cleanly mounted under the dash.
Under the hood is a very clean and mean powerhouse. It's showcased nicely with the fresh and bright big block in the middle of the dark engine bay, and this motor is worth the extra attention. There were thousands $$$$ recently invested to completely rebuild this year-correct 396 cubic-inch V8. It's bored .30 over with a resurfaced crank, new cam, heads, and internals. This reinforced powerhouse has also been enhanced further with a Quick Fuel double-pumper four-barrel carburetor and Offenhauser intake. There even a large aluminum radiator to help keep this big block running cool. It's a great muscle car package, and it makes a terrific sound out of the dual exhaust. The Muncie M20 four-speed manual transmission was rebuilt for this fresh motor, and so you get to control this power with confidence. Stopping is even well in control thanks to power brakes with discs up front.
This SS396 has a great presentation with a serious and fresh power. Oh yeah, this is the ultimate muscle machine, and it can all be yours if you act fast enough. Call now!
