In 1964, Chevrolet launched the Chevelle, a model that would become
one of the brand's most successful nameplates in its history.
Released as an attempt to meet rising demand for smaller vehicles,
Chevrolet offered the Chevelle in several body styles and
appointments. Most notably, the Super Sport, or SS, trim level, was
Chevrolet entry into the muscle car segment. In 1966, the SS396
became a series of its own, growing interest and demand in the
model.
This true "138" SS Chevelle was the recipient of a frame-off
restoration in 2021. It is finished in a stunning "R" code Regal
Red paint job, which is indicated on the car's trim tag as its
original color. Around the exterior of the car, the chrome,
brightwork, trim and glass are in fantastic condition. The car is
powered by correct "ED" code '66 396ci/325hp that was slightly
upgraded with flat top pistons and a Lunati roller cam during the
restoration. The motor is tied to a Muncie 4-speed transmission
with a new Hurst Super Competition Plus shifter. With a 12-bolt
Posi rear end with 4.10 gears, this Chevelle is an absolute blast
to drive. The interior features black bucket seats with a factory
console and the entire interior has been restored including the
door panels, headliner, carpets and more. The car is also equipped
with power steering, F-41 rear suspension, HEI ignition, front
power disc brakes, and custom dual exhaust. For someone looking for
a highly restored Chevelle SS that is also an outstanding car to
drive, look no further.
Unless stated otherwise, mileage shown on the odometer is exempt
