Vehicle Description
This 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle may have been born a real-deal Super
Sport, but today it's a restomod with so much more. The slick black
paint and custom/loaded A/C interior are terrific
attention-grabbers, it's all built on top of a huge investment in
power. This has a monster fuel-injected 502 V8, and they upgraded
everything from the suspension to the six-speed to make sure you
get to harness this awesome muscle to the fullest.
This coupe is the kind quality that takes a long commitment. That's
why it took two people and over $114,000 in work to get the full
car complete. It was only finished in 2019 and about 200 miles
driven since then. That's why this car has such a clean and
straight appearance. The sheetmetal, panel gaps, and slick black
paint were all held to higher standards. This is a real-deal Super
Sport, and so it has all the right elements, like the blacked-out
grille, faux hood vents, ribbed rocker panels, and proper SS
badging all-around. But there are a few subtle hints that you're
looking at something much more than just a cut-above classic. For
example, the classic Cragar SS wheels are a period-correct kind of
upgrades, except the larger 17-inch size means you can now fit
modern sports tires. And the front fenders now have Chevy's s
classic fuel injection callouts.
Inside is a premium and loaded interior. In fact, the red is so
fresh and bright it looks like hot lava overflowing from within the
dark black exterior. And just like the outside, they made big
investment inside to look stock but upgrade the experience. That's
why the seats, door panels, dash pad, and headliner all appear
factory, but they are now finished in a supple leather. They subtly
integrated more great modern upgrades like power front seats and an
AM/FM stereo with Bluetooth. The power windows (even vent windows)
mean you never have to leave the driver's seat to show off the
pillarless hardtop profile, and the ice-cold air conditioning
allows you to do that comfortably even in the summertime. The
driver experience is upgraded with a Grant wood-rimmed sports
steering wheel on a tilt column, and beyond that is the cool glow
of the full Dakota Digital gauge package. And have you counted the
gears on the Hurst shifter yet?
You'll love lifting the hood at car shows because everyone enjoys
seeing an engine bay stuffed with serious big block power. This has
the fresh look where it's unmistakable that this 502 cubic-inch
crate motor has hardly any miles on it all. So it has the tidiness
and shine that can win awards all on its own. And it's not just
that you have the mightiest crate motor Chevy ever offered, but
also we have a receipt file detailing the huge investment in
fortifying and enchasing the motor for ideal performance. This
includes a Holley tunnel ram electronic fuel injection system, GM
performance aluminum heads, Ron Davis aluminum radiator, and
Headman long tube headers that feed the X-pipe dual exhaust. And
while that makes a sweet sound, there's also electric cutouts
before MagnaFlow mufflers for those times when you want this to
reveal the true growl of the beast. The a Tremec T56 six-speed
manual transmission is a terrific modern upgrade to give you
complete control and overdrive comfort. It sends the power to the
12-bolt Moser rear end. The suspension is also all about control.
That's why you have a full Detroit Speed setup with tubular A-arms
up front, an upgraded four-link rear, and thick sway bars front &
rear. Plus, with Koni shocks, power steering, grippy ZR-rated
tires, and Wilwood four-wheel drilled & slotted power disc brakes,
this is the kind of classic that's as solid as a modern sports
machine.
The sale comes complete with plenty of build receipts documenting
the impressive restoration work. This is a fresh build with sleek
looks, great quality, and a ton of power. So you if you demand the
best of everything, don't let this big block restomod slip away.
