Vehicle Description
Get ready to step back in time with this unbelievable time capsule.
This 1966 matching number big block 396 Caprice is as close to 100%
original as you'll find. I've been a classic car enthusiast all of
my life and this one of the finest example of a true unrestored
classic I've ever seen. Still retains it's original paint, original
interior, matching number, drivetrain (including a12 bolt rear
end), Original A/C compressor that still works! Original paint.
I've looked all over this car and I can't find any paint work. The
matching number 396 runs exceptionally smooth, you can barely hear
it run. By far the smoothest running big block Chevrolet I've ever
seen. The factory Quadrajet is perfect! Never even a hint of
hesitation, not on start off or when the 4 barrel kicks in. Very
dependable, drive anywhere. Starts as soon as the starter turns,
you can't hardly touch the starter without it cranking. The
original turbo 400 transmission shifts excellent, smooth shifting,
responsive, and kicks down into lower gears surprisingly well. Runs
and drives like an absolute dream! Again, it's like taking a trip
back to 1966. Rides like you're riding on air yet handles
surprising good. Not even a hint of play in the steering. Just
really unbelievable how great this car drives. Very rare console
and gauge package (1 of 140 with gauge package) and all the gauges
work! Still has a hint of new car smell in the trunk. The original
lacquer shines remarkably for it's age. Original build sheet as
well as dealer paperwork, owners manual etc. 3 original T3
headlights. Has a very few flaws, there's a few nick's and
scratches but remember the paint is 52 years old. There is one
noticeable dent in the right rear quarter panel, I've done my best
to show it in the photos. The driver seat has one tear, slight side
wear and the dash pad is cracked. The only thing's that I know of
that don't work are the clock, the original am radio and the dash
lights. I assume it's something in the switch. All the headlights,
taillights, turn indicators backup lights, A/C, horn etc. all work
as they should. The headliner has one seam that the thread has
turned loose and one hole in the fabric. There's a new headliner
ordered and the labor has already been paid for. Honestly since
it's the original headliner, I would probably have someone resew
the seam and not worry about the small hole. I will let the buyer
choose. Has all 4 bumper guards. Comes with the original wheels and
hub caps (in great shape) as well as 4 BF Goodrich tires with less
than 500 miles on them, mounted on the original wheels. This car is
listed to sell, not to appraise. I believe in 100% disclosure, bid
with confidence. I hate to let this one go, this is a once in a
lifetime car. Truly a great automobile, in amazing unrestored
condition, not to mention ultra rare. Cars like this don't come up
for sale often. I have done my best to represent the car true. If
you have any questions feel free to email Would be glad to show the
car. Pictures do it no justice, looks even better in person.
