Vehicle Description
Chevrolet did a lot right in the 1960s, especially when it came to
the Camaro, Chevelle and Corvette. That's why pedigreed Chevelles
continue to be some of the hottest metal on the collector car
market. This impressive, first-generation coupe has all the right
ingredients to bring big value and even bigger appeal. For
starters, it's an authentic Chevelle Super Sport that features a
numbers-matching 396/4-speed drivetrain. It also combines correct
Marina Blue paint with a correct Black interior. And best of all,
this Chevy has benefitted from a 4-year, professional restoration
that literally left no bolt unturned! Looking for a timeless
Detroit superstar that mixes macho swagger with some of the best
lines to ever prowl Main Street? Here's your next American
idol!
AS IT WAS
Professionally refinished in correct Marina Blue 2-stage that was
sprayed by Collision Bike Works of Indian Trail, North Carolina,
this Chevelle is the beneficiary of a fresh, ground-up restoration
that was conducted over the course of four years. At the front of
the car, a familiar Super Sport grille hangs a bold "SS396" emblem
between a clean "CHEVELLE" header script and a polished bumper
that's finished with bright parking lamps. Opposite that bumper, a
correct Super Sport Hood fronts factory-tint glass that's seated
behind polished wipers and straight frames. At the base of those
frames, a polished bowtie mirror reflects polished door handles,
ornate profile badging and correct Super Sport rocker trim. And at
the back of the car, a striking Super Sport valance centers a
second "SS396" emblem between clear brake lights and a second
polished bumper that's finished with bright reverse lamps.
ORIGINAL, BUT BETTER
Pop the hood and you'll find an original, 396 cubic inch Chevrolet
big block that's been fully rebuilt, completely restored and
thoroughly sorted by Midland Engine Machine of Midland, North
Carolina. At the top of the Chevy Orange mill, a polished air
cleaner feeds oxygen to a reliable Quadrajet 4-barrel that's
centered behind a fresh stainless fuel line. That air/fuel mixture
travels into a painted Q-JET intake, which rides between correct
heads and polished valve covers. Those heads, finished with
hardened valve seats, cap a hotted cam, which breathes through
fully restored exhaust manifolds. At the back of those tubes, a
traditional points distributor shoots spark through fresh Packard
TV R Suppression cables. And in front of those cables, a 4-core
radiator swills water through pliable GM hoses and correct tower
clamps. According to this Chevelle's owner, all that
street-pounding hardware adds up to 415 dyno-proven horsepower. And
naturally, the engine fronts a 1967-exclusive 3902406 casting
number with a correct "ED" suffix stamp and a matching 170508
partial VIN.
JUST THE PERFORMANCE
One look under this storied classic reveals a solid chassis that's
every bit as road-ready as the stout 396. That big block powers an
original Muncie 4-speed, which hangs a correct 3885010 casting
number and a Muncie (P) assembled on February (B) 15th (15), 1967
(7) build stamp opposite a matching 170508 partial VIN. That
transmission spins a familiar 12-bolt axle, which is equipped with
predictable 3.31 gears. That buff drivetrain rides a tagged F41
Sport Suspension, which mixes manual steering with manual drum
brakes. Exhaust flows through aluminized pipes and throaty turbo
mufflers. The body's rust-free floors feature even Satin Black
pigment that's virtually spotless. And at the corners of those
floors, stainless-trimmed Rally Wheels spin 215/70R14 BF Goodrich
Radial T/A redlines.
AS IT WERE
Installed by Teddy Baucom's Auto Repair of Indian Trail, North
Carolina, this coupe's all-business cockpit is splendidly crisp.
Its correct vinyl seats are firm to the touch, showing no signs of
significant wear. In front of those seats, a straight Super Sport
dash frames sly direct-fit audio. Below that dash, fresh carpet
floats a polished shifter between pliable side panels. And the
driver spins a brushed Rally Wheel.
In 1967, this Chevelle was some of the best performance your money
could buy. Currently, it's one of the best investments on the
muscle car market. If you're on the hunt for a first class
collectible that doubles as a killer pavement bruiser, your search
is officially over. Call your friends at RK Motors Charlotte and
claim this sweet Super Sport.
