1966 Chevrolet Chevelle

This 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 Convertible is a real-deal Super Sport that has upgraded fuel-injected V8 power, extra-sleek paint, a five-speed stick, four-wheel disc brakes, and an A/C interior. It makes for the kind of classic that loves to go everywhere and show off its awesome muscle car presence.

The trim tag tells us that Regal Red is the car's original color, but when the sunlight hits this convertible, you instantly can tell it has the extra luster of a high-quality respray. It's great to see someone invest in excellence because we all love it when a sunshine-friendly drop-top looks great in the sunshine. And they also took care of the details with clean glass, good rubber, and nice brightwork trim - including those big wraparound chrome bumpers. A real deal Super Sport is also about the performance style. The blackout SS grille, vent trim hood, ribbed rocker panels, correct badging, and racing flags on the front fenders are all part of this distinction. Plus, the polished American Racing Torq Thrust wheels have a cool classic style, but the larger 17-inch size fills the wheel wells better for a sporty stance and allows you to fit better tires. It's all about a package that looks stylish, powerful, and thoughtful.

The white roof has a timeless appeal against the red paint, and when you take it down, it reveals a white interior. So it makes for an attractive convertible no matter if the top is up or down. The seats and side panels look bright and premium, and it's nice to see higher traffic areas like the carpet, dash, and door tops were done in black (another reminder that this is thoughtfully done to be a car that wants to be enjoyed.) Plus, there are upgrades that make it a nice place to spend some time. This includes the AM/FM stereo with Bluetooth, a cup holder center console, and cold-blowing air conditioning. It has a proper driver's appeal with the front bucket seats, a grippy wood-rimmed steering wheel, power steering, and a shifter that feels like it's calling out for your right hand.

Lift the hood to see a tidy presentation that's full of power. This is an era-correct 396 cubic-inch V8, and it's ready to show off with the bold color, shining valve covers, and an air grabber with big block callouts. And while you have the classic style, this V8 is now topped off with an MSD electronic fuel injection system. That means both greater power and more reliable delivery! There's also investment in the right supporting pieces, like upgraded pulleys on a serpentine belt and an aluminum radiator with an electric fan. It fires up eagerly, and there's a nice rumble from the dual exhaust and Magnaflow mufflers. An upgraded Tremec five-speed manual transmission gives you ideal control over all this big block muscle as it sends the power to a stout 12-bolt rear. There are even four-wheel power disc brakes for superior stopping power.

This is a bright red Super Sport drop-top with the right upgrades for serious style and substance. It makes for an outstanding Chevelle you need to get your hands on right now. Call today!!!
