Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Chicago is proud to present this clean 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 Factory 4-Speed. When it comes to true American Muscle Cars the name Chevelle has always stood out, and for good reason. Arguably this is one of the most attractive styles with those slick lines, absence of gaudy chrome and trim, and a tidy front and rear fascia. This example is finished in the correct E-Code shade of Royal Mist Metallic top and bottom with black interior.
Performance is key with any muscle car, but heritage is also important when it comes to the investment side of cars, and this one has a lot going for it. The original 396 was replaced with a rebuilt 454 Cubic Inch V8. Before undergoing a full show-quality restoration, this vehicle was purchased in 2002 and was believed to have only 45,500 actual miles. A restoration began with removing the frame and chassis components to be sandblasted and then powder coated. The exterior shell was then stripped to bare metal and any imperfections or signs of rust or filler were replaced with metal and finished off with high quality paint, and even the chrome/brightwork was redone.
On the interior you will see a correct reconditioning of the dash, bucket seats, and carpeting to make the car stand out. The original radio was replaced with an electronic, but classic-looking AM/FM Stereo with input jack and dual amps in the trunk for all your favorite tunes. The cue-ball shifter is ready for you to take hold and get this classic big-block up to speed while impressing your friends and neighbors.
If you have been on the search for a high-level and correct restoration of such a desirable and iconic muscle car, don't let this beauty pass you by.

About Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant is the best selling and biggest brand by General Motors -mainly due to low pricing. No wonder Chevy the "working man's car" has become such an iconic part of Americana in films and pop-culture.
When talking about Chevy one must not ignore Chevrolet small-block V8 the world's most produced engine that has been in production since 1955 and still going strong.
Surprisingly, "America's only sports car" Corvette was introduced under Chevrolet brand rather than its own. To us the most memorable Corvette has to be The second generation (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.
To compete with VW Beatle Chevrolet introduced Corvair a compact automobile built in 1960–1969 It was the only American designed, mass-produced passenger car to feature a rear-mounted air-cooled engine. Corvair handling was deemed notoriously bad mainly due to Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Although, any handling issues were soon solved the reputation did stick.
With Pony / Muscle car mania taking over the Americans, following the introduction of Ford Mustang, Chevrolet came up with one of its most famous models Camaro. During the first year alone they managed to sell 220,906 Camaros.
