Vehicle Description
This 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454 Tribute is a sleek blue hardtop
with a monster big block crate V8 under the hood. Best of all, you
get to enjoy this full muscle car package from the comfort of a
well-restored A/C interior.
The trim tag tells us this was born a Marina Blue coupe, and the
way it radiates in the sunshine today signals a quality investment
in a modern clearcoat finish. So it can make a great first
impression as people can spot the glow from blocks away. As this
one gets closer, you get to show off the Super Sport upgrades, like
blackout SS grille, matching rear panel, ribbed rockers, and hood
vent trim. Bright chrome bumpers, good body lines, and complete
trim show that this one gets the fundamentals right. Plus, the
large dual exhaust tips and upgraded 17-inch alloys are the kind of
things that signal this one is special even if people don't see the
454 callouts.
The black interior is factory-correct, and the total presentation
has the appearance of all the right investments. The seats, door
panels, carpeting, and headliner all have a deep color and look of
quality. It all makes for a nice coupe to share with family and
friends. There's even more ways to keep them happy with an upgraded
AM/FM digital tuner with aux input and cold-blowing R134a air
conditioning. But this one was really made to keep the driver
happy. Bucket seats and a center console are great classic pieces.
This is joined by upgrades like an auxiliary gauge trio, Bosch
tach, and a wood and chrome sports steering wheel mounted on a
convenient tilt column.
The engine bay was made for you to showcase this motor. The clean
inner fenders and firewall can't help but funnel your attention to
the ZZ454 performance crate Chevy V8 in the middle. This beast of a
motor is nicely dressed with the finned black valve covers, a
matching air topper with 454 callouts, and tidy block radiating
power from within the dark engine bay. These crate motors come
right out of the box with nice features like aluminum heads and a
performance intake. Plus, this one inhales deeply with an Edelbrock
four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with power as Hooker headers
feed the Flowmaster dual exhaust. So while Chevy rates this at 469
horsepower when new, there might even be more ponies in this one!
This has quality pieces surrounding it like a large aluminum
radiator, TCI three-speed automatic, and a stout Auburn
Positraction rear end. And while you have beastly power, it's also
easy to tame with power steering, power brakes with discs up front,
modern performance tires, and upgraded adjustable coilovers in the
rear.
Complete with build receipts and service manuals, this Chevelle is
both serious sleek and seriously powerful. So when it's also loaded
with the best features, you know this is the ideal all-around
muscle machine. Call now!
