Vehicle Description
Here's exactly what you want in a classic. This 1966 Chevrolet
Impala SS has the look of a full-size hardtop done in a sleek
black. And upgrades like a crate V8, overdrive transmission, and
modern wheels/tires make it even easier to enjoy this classic near
or far.
Chevrolet's best-selling full-size Impala really looked sleek and
striking in '66, and this hardtop coupe represents all of that
perfectly. The black paint is an upgrade later in life, and so it
has the glossy style to let the sunlight highlight the car's best
lines of the body. All the brightwork is correct including the
wraparound bumpers, full-width grille, Super Sport badging, and
sweeping trim line that starts at the front fender and wraps around
the rear. It all looks good, but you can also tell this car was
meant to hit the road. It's in the overall presentation and the
upgrades like the 17-inch Ridler wheels that let you fit modern
tires.
The black returns inside and now it's joined by plenty of white for
the kind of tiles and premium appeal you get in a tuxedo. There are
nice details, like the stylized bucket seats that have a low-back
presentation to give this pillarless hardtop a terrific uncluttered
profile when all the windows are down. In-between is a bright
center console and sporty floor shift. With the door panels,
carpeting, and headliner well presented, too, this coupe is a fine
place to spend some time. And that's a good thing considering the
full-size Impala SS has plenty of room to carry five total in
comfort. This one feels like proper 1960s motoring with the factory
Impala steering wheel, large horizontal speedometer, and plenty of
bright trim. But there are also the right upgrades for a better
modern cruiser, like the auxiliary gauge trio and the AM/FM/CD
stereo with USB for better driving music. There's even an A/C
compressor present (you will need more components and servicing if
you want a fully functioning system.)
You can instantly see the motor was given attention to be a better
driver. The 350 cubic-inch motor is a fresher crate motor. It has
the features you want, like an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, an
aluminum radiator, and headers feeding into the dual exhaust. A
cool hardtop coupe like this was built for cruising, so you'll
enjoy features like power steering, sport tires, and an upgraded
four-speed automatic transmission with highway-ready overdrive. It
also has a 10 bolt rear and the consignor is claiming it to have
posi traction.
Complete with owner's manual, this is luxury and power that comes
together in a distinctive package. So if you love a full-size
classic cruiser, call today!
