Description

This is a true attention-getter. After all, if the bright paint doesn't get all the eyes on you, the growl of the big block will. That's why this 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS396 tribute has everything you love, from the iconic hardtop look to four-on-the-floor. This car is quite striking from its first impression as it mixes speed with sophistication. It's in the way the '66 cars blend artful touches (like the flying buttress C-pillars) with subtle aggression... (like the intimidating overhang on the hood.) And this one really does it right. The Marina Blue has a brighter shine that tells you there was an investment in refreshing the year-correct color later in life. Plus, you can tell special attention was paid to the brightwork to make sure everything from the window trim to the chrome king bumpers have a lasting brilliance. This SS396 tribute has been done correctly by giving it the unique pieces with pride, including the blacked-out grille, louvered hood, ribbed lower trim panels, and all the correct badging (including the Super Sport fender scripts.) And of course, no sporty Chevy would be complete without iconic Rally wheels. This handsome bucket seat interior perfectly captures this Chevelle's comfortable and performance dual-purpose nature. The seats, door panels, dash, headliner, and center console have that kind of fresh black appearance that makes us believe there was quite a nice investment inside here recently. This interior is really for detail loves with cool pieces like a working console clock and the wood-rimmed sports steering wheel. And the radio is a retro-style modern AM/FM unit so you get to choose your best music while still keeping the vintage atmosphere. You even have the correct "knee-knocker" tach that goes so well with the Hurst shifter. The engine bay was built for both show and go. The dark and smooth inner fender and firewall funnel your attention to the bold block paint, polished air topper, and matching valve covers. They're all there to showcase the monster motor. After all, a Super Sport needs big block power, you're looking at a 454 cubic-inch V8. Not only is that more displacement than an SS396, but also you have added go-fast goodies like an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake, and long tube headers that feed the rumbling dual exhaust. You're in complete control of this power motor and its muscle car symphony thanks to the desirable four-speed manual transmission. Plus, the power steering, power brakes w/discs up front, and sway bars front & rear make taming this beast easy. Big power and a big presence make this a true standout. So if you love driving an icon, and you love attention, hurry up and grab this turn-key Super Sport tribute. Call today!!!
