Vehicle Description
Pro Touring means taking a classic look you love and investing
heavily, so that the exterior, interior, engine, and suspension are
all part of a performance and comfort package that leaves you
wanting for nothing. So dig deep into how this 1966 Chevrolet
Chevelle earns its Pro Touring title with the ultra-slick build
that offers a fresh A/C interior, big suspension upgrades,
four-wheel discs brakes, a huge big block V8, and so much more.
The '66 Chevelle is a mixture of intimidation and sophistication.
The crisp hint of a front overhang, SS-style hood vents, and the
extra curve of the profile from the flared fenders make this
instantly aggressive. But there are also great stylistic touches,
like the flying buttress rear pillars on the hardtop silhouette.
It's this mixture of speed and style that make this the ideal
classic to invest heavily for a Pro Touring machine. The Dark
Toreador Red sets the tone nicely as it has the boldness you want
in a muscle car, but with a deeper and more sophisticated tone.
There's a nice metallic glow to the paint, and so it does an
excellent job of showcasing the attention paid to the lines and
gaps of the sheetmetal. And rivaling the shine is a solid
investment in all the brightwork, including the full trim, ribbed
rocker panels, and mirror-like chrome bumpers. And those Weld
forged alloys finish off the package nicely as they give you a
classic name with modern style - just like this whole custom-built
Chevelle does!
The black interior looks great against the deep red exterior. Plus,
they took plenty of time to pay attention to classic details here.
So you get insignia trim seats, buckets up front, and a center
console in-between with working clock. Everything from the
carpeting to the door panels matches this in dark color and
freshness for a great classic car experience. And to make sure you
can enjoy a vintage interior in modern times, you have
well-integrated upgrades. It includes the retro-style AM/FM digital
tuner with aux input and cold-blowing modern R134a air
conditioning. And of course, as a Pro Touring car, this was
upgraded to be a driver's machine. That's why the grippry black and
chrome sports steering wheel is mounted on a tilt column. It gives
you a clear view to not only the nice factory-style readouts, like
the tach, but also the full auxiliary gauge trio.
The engine bay continues this coupe's strength and style packaging.
You have a tidy look with a smooth painted firewall, bold block,
shining ribbed valve covers, and a matching air topper. But what
you'll really love is the substance beyond the style. The 454
cubic-inch big block was larger than what Chevy offered in '66, and
that's just the beginning of the performance upgrade. It was
stroked to a massive 468ci total and given go-fast goodies like
Edelbrock aluminum heads, a Holley four-barrel carburetor,
Edelbrock Performer 2.0 intake, and long tube headers that feed the
Flowmaster dual exhaust. Plus, you have terrific supporting
components that include an MSD ignition and an aluminum radiator
with dual electric fans. It's a strong running package, and that's
because this coupe was meant to enjoy on the road. You have a fresh
suspension full of upgrades like tubular control arms up front, QA1
adjustable coilovers, sway bars front & rear, and Wilwood drilled &
slotted four-wheel discs brakes. Add in power steering and a
three-speed automatic transmission, and you can see why a Pro
Touring car is great for everything from performance driving to
easy cruising.
Speed, style, and comfort come together in one custom package. So
if you like the best of everything, don't miss this hardtop. Call
