Background Story of this 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle

Overview of 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle For Sale by Owner

Chevrolet, a brand that epitomized American automotive excellence during the 1960s, left an indelible mark on the nation's car culture. The 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle stands as a testament to this era, embodying the essence of American spirit through its unadorned and robust design. Unveiled to the public, it became an instant classic, a symbol of grit and inherent power. The 1966 Chevelle Malibu SS 396 presented here is no ordinary classic; it has undergone an extensive restoration with a touch of modern performance enhancements, making it a truly unique machine. With a mere 320 miles showing on the odometer, this Chevelle has been reimagined and is now poised to find a new home.

Exterior and Interior

The exterior of this Chevelle exudes the classic charm of its era, resplendent in a striking marine blue finish. Its bold and unapologetic design, characterized by sharp, angular lines, commands attention wherever it roams. Notable exterior features include a Supersport hood, energy suspension mount body kit, and a complete glass kit. Billet Specialties Mag-GH wheels adorn both front and rear, accentuating the car's strong presence. The owner's meticulous approach extends to the bodywork, which has been subjected to a thorough process, including cleaning and phosphate treatment, multiple coats of Featherfill primer, base coat application, and meticulous hand-sanding and buffing, resulting in an impeccable finish. The interior of this Chevelle exudes a tasteful blend of original aesthetics and modern convenience. The seats, reportedly original, maintain their authentic charm, while original or OEM handles, fittings, door panels, and trim have been thoughtfully retained. The cabin boasts a Vintage Air heating and ventilation system, Dakota digital VHX gauges, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. The black interior, with its meticulous attention to detail, creates an ambiance that is both captivating and inviting.

Engine

Under the hood resides a formidable 396ci V8 engine, derived from an original Chevrolet 396 but subjected to a comprehensive rebuild. With an overbore resulting in a displacement of 414ci and a redline of 6,500rpm, this powerplant is a marvel of modern performance engineering. Meticulously assembled with new components, re-machined surfaces, and precision-balanced crankshaft, it exudes both power and reliability. Complementing this formidable engine is a Holley Terminator EFI system and a manual transmission - a fully-rebuilt Muncie four-speed with a Hurst shifter. The car's enhanced chassis and suspension, featuring tubular control arms, sway bars, a Borgeson polished steering joint, an Ididit tilt steering column, and Shwartz Performance front and rear suspension on a powder-coated chassis, ensure that this Chevelle delivers its performance with confidence and precision.

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$85,000
SOLD

This 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu has been thoughtfully transformed into an SS 454 tribute, combining classic muscle car aesthetics with modernized performance and comfort upgrades. While originally a Malibu, this build pays homage to the iconic SS 454 through its visual presentation, big-block powertrain, and period-inspired details, while incorporating contemporary components that enhance drivability and reliability. Finished in a custom Brush Silver paint and equipped with a cowl induction hood and SS 454 badging, the car captures the spirit of Chevrolet’s legendary big-block era while clearly presenting itself as a tribute rather than a factory-original SS.

1960 Chevrolet El Camino

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$39,900

The Chevy El Camino showed the world in 1959 that a pickup truck didn’t have to be a body-on-frame machine with stodgy styling and uncomfortable riding dynamics. Instead, Chevy created a segment called the Coupe Utility, which was basically a seamless integration of cab, chassis and cargo area into one element. This led to a sportier, lower-riding and more comfortable vehicle that could still carry a decent payload in its cargo bed. After all, many buyers of such vehicles didn’t need heavy load-carrying per se, rather they wanted space. The El Camino also gained a reputation in the muscle car class, since it was available with some truly awesome V8s under the hood. Here, we have a 1960 Chevrolet El Camino that’s received a 383 Stroker under the hood, paired with a 3-speed automatic gearbox and a B&M shifter. With just 23,000 miles on its belt, this machine of multiple personas awaits its new owner in Dana Point, California.

The Chevrolet SSR LS is a uniquely American performance pickup that blends retro-inspired styling with modern V8 power and convertible flair.

This LS-trim example emphasizes comfort, usability, and factory-installed accessories while retaining the bold character that made the SSR stand out in Chevrolet’s early-2000s lineup.

Chevy’s second-generation or C2 Corvette has got to be the one with the shortest production run! It was made between 1963 and 1967, and just under 118,000 units were produced during this time. However, the C2 brought us many Corvette features such as pop-up headlamps, only V8s under the hood, and the Sting Ray badge. That’s why getting your hands on a C2 is a smart idea, albeit not one of the easiest. Happily, we have this 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible for sale from Newtown, Pennsylvania. The car has just 5,764 miles on it and looks fabulous!

1969 Ford Torino Cobra

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$68,999

Ford’s Torino is a midsize car that was sold between 1968 and 1976. It also dabbled in the muscle car segment, with a prime example being this first-generation 1969 Ford Torino Cobra Jet. For buyers who wanted something tamer, there was a host of straight six or V8 powerplants, but the ultimate was the massive 428ci Cobra Jet V8. That’s what this Thousand Palms-based car offers, along with a Marti Report and just 21,000 miles on the clock. In fact, 1969 Cobras like this one are quite desirable due to their rarity since many Torino’s didn’t survive due to a variety of reasons. Perhaps they weren’t quite seen as preservation candidates way back then. Now, a car like this one isn’t a common occurrence, so if you wish to own this Cobra, contact us right now.

Falcon is one of Ford’s best-known nameplates, because its been used for cars in North America, Australia and Argentina. Today’s 1964 Ford Falcon Sprint Convertible comes from the North American line-up and is a second-generation example. With a healthy 119,104 miles on the clock, this fine Ford hails from Chula Vista, California and is a nice, sunny drop-top too. It’s got a 289 paired with a four-speeder, and some fetching aftermarket wheels as well. And that’s before we get to its rather nautical color! In short, this is the perfect first classic for someone looking to try out the American cars of the Sixties, but if you need more convincing before calling us, read on.
