1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 Convertible

When it comes to the Golden Age of muscle cars, almost no name can instantly open up a floodgate of memories and a rush of adrenaline quite like the mighty Chevelle. Fully repainted in this enchanting Sky Blue with a complementary white convertible top, this 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 Convertible emanates equal parts style and speed. A straight body, American Racing Torq Thrust II wheels, and freedom-inspiring drop-top demeanor all combine forces to create a boulevard bruiser or cruiser that is unlike anything else on the road.Inside, the supple white vinyl is inversely complemented by a body-color-matching trim and turquoise carpeting. A split bench seat provides plenty of room up front, while a three-spoke steering wheel featuring an SS center cap sits in front of a column-mounted Sunrpo 8,000 rpm tachometer, and beyond that, a classic horizontal 120-mph speedometer, while the throwback sliding HVAC controls (complete with air conditioning) remind us how simple driving used to be. An upgrade AM/FM/AUX head unit handles soundtrack duties, while the floor-mounted stick promises to offer up an engaging ride, whether it's across town or cross-country.Under the hood, we find a transplanted 396 cubic-inch V-8 engine looking right at home with its chrome air cleaner and old-school primer-orange-painted block and intake manifold. A single four-barrel carburetor feeds this beast, while a set of long tube headers feeds into a true dual exhaust to give this old school muscle car the sound it should have. Power flows from that big block to a tried-and-true Muncie M20 four-speed manual transmission, before the 12-bolt rear transfers those ponies to the pavement via fifteen-inch American Racing wheels, shod in 255/60R-15 Cooper Cobra Radial G/T tires.HIGHLIGHTS:Full Blue Repaint White Convertible Top 396ci V8 Single Four Barrel Carb Dual Exhaust Muncie M20 Four Speed Manual 12 Bolt Rear American Racing Wheels Cooper Cobra Tirese White Interior Split Bench Seat Column Mounted Tach AM/FM/AUX Head UnitThis beautiful 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 Convertible rides on a factory-style suspension, featuring a double-A-arm front and four-link rear suspension with shocks and springs at all four corners.
