1966 Chevelle Super Sport – Two Owner – Sympathetic Restoration – 396 Original Engine with 375 HP overhauled – Matching Numbers – VIN 138176K


By 1966 the muscle car race was on.  Of course the idea of a manufacturer putting big engines in their smaller sized cars certainly did not begin with a GTO or any post war cars.  The whole idea certainly started well before World War II when Buick was dominating the drag racing field by putting their big Road Master engine in the small Buick Special and calling the model the Century.


So it is in 1966 when Chevrolet decided to get into the muscle car race with all of their energy and came up with the Chevelle 396 cubic inch.   This particular car that you see here is a factory SS 396, automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes.  The car is finished in original Chevrolet Atlantic Blue as a repaint but the color is not original to the car.


This Chevelle is a very popular muscle car because it is mid-sized and has plenty of room inside and is a great cruiser with the automatic transmission and lets face it the design lines on this car are just fantastic.  


The Chevelle SS represented Chevrolets entry into the muscle car market in 1966.  However the 1966 Chevelle SS 396 became a series of its own in both the sport coupes and convertibles.  In these cars the frames were reinforced along with revised front suspension that was recalibrated for the muscle car stance and stability.


PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION FROM THE SELLER 


The seller of this New Mexico car has indicated that he bought this car from the original owner several years ago and has pampered it and cared for it as the original owner had always done.  


The seller said that the car was painted Atlantic Blue which is a Chevelle color but not the color the car was born with in 1966.  We totally agree that this is a striking color for showing off the lines of the car.  


The original bumpers were also re-chromed at the time of the new paint.  


The 396 engine with 375 horse power was totally overhauled and only has about 50 miles on it since completed.


The N.O.S. interior with black vinyl bucket seats and N.O.S. carpet, N.O.S. headliner N.O.S. seats and N.O.S. dashboard and it looks very sharp and fresh.  


The original steering wheel was restored to original specs.  


The car has a new heater.  


The original radio in the car has been upgraded with the addition of a new stereo under the dash.   


All electrical on the car has been gone through to make sure it is working properly and all wiring on car is brand new. 


All seals on windows are brand new and all windows work properly.  


Seller has all receipts and paperwork showing work done. 

 

Previous owner gave seller the original owner’s manual.   


The seller has told us this is a no rust car being that is from New Mexico and also has new radial tires.  Check out the original RALLY WHEELS on the car!!

Mike Crown, from Mystery Chevelle is an expert on 66/67 Chevelles, and states that when it comes to the mighty 13817 model numbers, you can tell if the VIN plate is original to the car by looking at the rivets. Factory rivets were rosette/star shaped, while aftermarket rivets typically found in a clone will be round.


This is a beautiful 1966 Chevelle Super Sport and is ready for its new owner!  


Bid with Confidence!


So, if you are looking for a muscle car that is relatively inexpensive in the muscle car world, has great lines and absolutely beautiful color (just check out that beautiful blue) and is highly detailed, this could be the car for you.  The interesting thing about Chevelles is that they not only appeal to the generation that grew up with them but it also seems that the younger generations appreciate the classic lines of this car also.  The current owner is pushing 70 and has decided that it is time for the car to have a new caretaker just as he himself has taken care of the car himself for almost a decade.

Stolen '57 Chevy Returned To Owner After 30 Years

Fri, Feb 21 2014

Three decades after it was stolen, a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air has been returned to a Northern California man - in better shape than when he originally owned it. The Santa Rosa Press Democrat reports Ian "Skip" Wilson was shocked to get a call from the California Highway Patrol informing him that his long-lost Chevy was taken off an Australia-bound cargo ship. The 65-year-old says the car has had a lot of work done on it since it disappeared from his Lake County home in 1984. It was returned with a monogrammed interior, 17-inch racing wheels, rack-and-pinion steering and a 350-horsepower V-8 engine. The retired mechanic says the two-door was in sorry shape when he bought it for $375 in 1975 with plans for fixing it up.

Buick Encore, Chevy Trax earn Top Safety Pick from IIHS [w/video]

Thu, Feb 12 2015

The Buick Encore has been a massive sales success practically from the moment it debuted, and Buick recently decided to increase production to keep up with demand for the premium compact crossover. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety recently put one to the test again, and the Encore earned a Top Safety Pick award. It's the first model from the brand to score the nod since 2013, according to the IIHS, and the rating also carries over to the 2015 Chevrolet Trax. The 2015 Encore scored a Good rating in all of the IIHS' evaluations, including the 40-mile-per-hour, small overlap front crash test. That was a big improvement over the previous model the institute tested, which scored a Poor result in the overlap test. In the first test, about 13 inches of the lower door hinge pillar came into the passenger compartment, and the steering wheel airbag moved too far to protect the dummy's head. Improvements for the latest model year showed six inches of intrusion this time, and the airbags caught the dummy's head well. The dummy's sensors also indicated a low risk of injury. The two CUVs missed out on the full Top Safety Pick+ because the IIHS scored the Encore as only having a basic front crash prevention system, and there was no such equipment for the Trax. To earn the highest mark, models need at least an advanced rating by the institute for this technology. Buick Encore, Chevrolet Trax earn 2015 TOP SAFETY PICK award ARLINGTON, Va. - A small SUV is the first vehicle from the Buick brand to qualify for a TOP SAFETY PICK award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety since 2013. The Buick Encore's newly introduced, lower-priced twin, the Chevrolet Trax, also qualifies for the honor. The Encore's award follows improvements to the SUV's structure for better small overlap front protection. The 2015 model earns a good rating in the small overlap test. In contrast, the 2013-14 Encore rated poor in the test. The driver's space was seriously compromised with intrusion measuring as much as 13 inches at the lower door hinge pillar. The dummy's head barely contacted the front airbag before sliding off the left side, as the steering column moved to the right. The side curtain airbag deployed too late and didn't have sufficient forward coverage to protect the head. In the latest test, the driver space was maintained reasonably well, with maximum intrusion of 6 inches at the door hinge pillar and instrument panel. The dummy's movement was well-controlled.

Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs

Thu, 03 Jan 2013

General Motors says its next-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade models will offer shoppers improved interior differentiation. Car and Driver recently caught up with Chris Hilts, GM's creative manager of interior design, who said that the cabins will all feature unique instrument panels, consoles, center stacks and switchgear moving forward. Apparently GM is now aware that consumers may be bothered by the fact that today's $85,000 Escalade has effectively the same cabin as a $45,000 Tahoe. Hilts says SUV buyers want more refinement than their pickup purchasing counterparts - and those same buyers also want their SUVs to have more exterior differentiation between the company's Silverado and Sierra pickup lines. Shocking.
That all sounds good to us, but we've heard this song and dance before. GM made big waves about how different the new-for-2013 Silverado and Sierra would look from each other, but judging by what we've seen so far, GM's stylists are painting in shades rather than with the full spectrum.
