Chevrolet Chevelle 1966

Allmän beskrivning : Sometimes simple is good. This traditional Chevelle is, literally, brilliant proof of that philosophy. With a distinct lack of flashy graphics or questionable body modifications clouding its retro Mist Blue paint, this old school Chevy stands out not because of what's there, but because of what isn't. Of course, when you're building a car that honors a specific era, everything you do HAS to be well-planned and well-executed. From factory-style bodywork to a factory-look powertrain, to a factory-spec interior, there's simply no room for compromise. Mixing 396 cubic inches of pro-built big block with retro style, a proven driveline and ultra clean restoration, this exceptional hardtop is a time-honored stunner. And if you're looking for an awesome classic that's road ready, show-ready and just plain battle-ready, it's the perfect way to prowl the scene and bruise a few egos!
BLUE CHEVY CREW
It seems like Mist Blue is the go-to color for traditional Chevy builds -- rightfully so, since it remains dynamic pigment that often walks a perfect line between timeless and retro. Think about it: when you picture sweet, '60s-style Chevy muscle, it's very easy to envision the car in Mist Blue, right? An authentic V8 Chevelle that still shines in its correct color, this beast is the beneficiary of a detailed, ground-up restoration that was professionally glazed in quality PPG two-stage by Boone, North Carolina's High Country Paint & Performance. And today, the car rolls as one very impressive classic that's poised to cruise and polished to show!
A quick look at our high resolution photos reveals trim and ornamentation that remain mostly as the General specified. At the front of this coupe's chiseled body, a familiar Super Sport grille hangs a prominent 'SS427' emblem between traditional halogen headlights and a polished bumper that's finished with small parking lamps. Behind that grille, a subtle Cowl Induction Hood leads the eye to fresh glass that's caged in straight frames, painted drip rails and polished wipers. At the sides of that glass, 427-amped fender emblems and quarter-mounted 'Super Sport' scripts hint at the true nature of the big block's personality while tasteful door handles and a classy bowtie mirror perfectly complement slim wheel lips and factory rocker guards. And out back, a second polished bumper frames simple taillights and bold 'CHEVELLE SS427' branding that occupies a body-matched cove.
BIG BLOCK BRAWN
Check this classic's Satin Black engine bay and you'll find 396 cubic inches of serious Chevy big block that spins 545 dyno-proven horsepower into 511 lb./ft. of dyno-proven torque! A high-nickel block that was professionally rebuilt by the folks at King, North Carolina's Buck Racing Engines, that hot mill begins at a cowl-fed air cleaner, which drops crisp wind into a big Holley carburetor. A Winters aluminum intake feeds aluminum Winters heads, which stack polished valve covers on Erson roller lifters. Those lifters play well with an Erson roller cam, forged pistons, ARP studs and H-beam rods. A proven HEI distributor sequences spark through loomed Megafire wires. A billet serpentine drive spins a Stewart water pump between a modern alternator, a modern AC compressor and modern power steering pump. Cooling is provided by a factory radiator, which is outfitted with a polished overflow and a slim electric puller fan. Spent gases traverse coated Hedman Hedders. Choice detailing includes a coated fuel pump, a polished flywheel cover and a deep-sump oil pan. And the rowdy motor looks great dressed in a traditional coat of Chevy Orange paint!
SUPER SPORTING INTENTIONS
That lust worthy big block twists torque to a tough Turbo-Hydramatic 400 3-speed. That legendary gearbox spins a Moser 12-bolt axle, which is finished with a Truetrac limited-slip differential and fun, 3.31 cogs. That drivetrain pushes a fully rebuilt rear-clip that's been upgraded with a sway bar, boxed lowers, tubular Edelbrock uppers and quality Eibach lowering springs. A factory-style steering box turns a fully rebuilt front-clip that features a thick sway bar and two more Eibach lowering springs. Factory-style power front disc and rear drum brakes have been supplemented with drilled and slotted rotors. The aforementioned headers create glorious noise through aluminized pipes and welded mufflers. At the corners, timeless Chevrolet Rally Wheels spin 235/60R15 BF Goodrich Radial T/As in front of 255/60R15 BF Goodrich Radial T/As. And overall, this Chevelle's solid, Satin Black are primed for logging miles!
FINE FACTORY FORM
Pop this A-Body's solid doors and you'll find a crisp Super Sport interior that's both attractive and timeless. In the middle of that cockpit, taut vinyl buckets wear date-correct Medium Blue hides. In front of those seats, a classy dash hangs optional deluxe telemetry beside factory-style climate control and factory-look audio. Stainless-trimmed side panels frame fade-free carpet, which frames a tidy console that's centered on a cool clock and a stylish shifter. The driver spins a handsome, Chevelle-branded steering wheel. And the passengers stash essentials in a clean, restoration-fresh trunk.
It's impossible to guess how many hours it took to construct this awesome Chevy. But, given the specificity that defines its build, our asking price probably wouldn't even cover the components, let alone labor. At first glance, the car appears to be a simple retro relic, but an acute attention to detail and amazing quality gain your admiration almost instantly. All that said, one thing is certain: bold and boisterous, there's no hiding how brilliant this Chevelle is when you're sitting behind the wheel!

om Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, som grundades år 1911 av Louis Chevrolet och William C. Durant är den bäst säljande och största varumärke av General Motors -mainly grund av låga priser.

Inte undra på Chevy "arbets mannens bil" har blivit en sådan ikonisk del av Americana i filmer och pop-kultur.

När man talar om Chevy man får inte bortse från Chevrolet small-block V8 världens mest producerade motor som har varit i produktion sedan 1955 och still going strong.

Överraskande, "Amerikas enda sportbil" Corvette infördes i Chevrolet varumärke snarare än sina egna. För oss mest minnesvärda Corvette måste vara Den andra generationen (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.

Att konkurrera med VW Beatle Chevrolet introducerade Corvair en kompakt bil byggd 1960-1969 Det var det enda amerikanska utformade, massproducerade personbil som har en bakmonterad luftkyld motor. Corvair hantering ansågs notoriskt dåligt främst på grund av Ralph Nader s Osäkert vid varje hastighet. Även om var eventuella hanteringsfrågor snart löst rykte gjorde pinnen.

Med Ponny / Muscle bil mani tar över amerikanerna, efter införandet av Ford Mustang, Chevrolet kom upp med en av sina mest kända modeller Camaro. Under det första året lyckades de sälja 220.906 Camaros.
