Vehicle Description
1966 Chevrolet Chevelle Convertible Restomod
When it comes to blending classic charm with modern muscle, this
1966 Chevrolet Chevelle Convertible Restomod takes center stage.
Built by Metal Works Speed Shop of Eugene, OR, this iconic beauty
is a rolling testament to timeless design and cutting-edge
innovation. Wrapped in a custom Blue metallic paint that shimmers
like a gem under the sun, the Chevelle radiates sophistication. The
gray denim-like cloth folding top adds a unique contrast, while
updated headlights and taillights deliver a subtle modern touch.
With its aggressive yet refined stance on staggered 19-inch and
20-inch Boze alloy wheels wrapped in Continental Extreme tires,
this Chevelle commands attention.
Under the hood lies the heart of a beast: a 6.0L 364ci Chevrolet
Performance crate engine that delivers an impressive 452
horsepower. Featuring an Edelbrock EFI system, LS6 hydraulic roller
camshaft, and aluminum LS3 rectangular port cylinder heads, this
powerhouse provides relentless performance. Polished aluminum valve
covers and an aluminum radiator with dual electric fans enhance
both form and function. Flowmaster long tube headers and a dual
Flowmaster exhaust system amplify the Chevelle's aggressive growl,
while the 4L60E automatic overdrive transmission and Ford 9-inch
rear with 3.70 limited-slip gearing create smooth yet spirited
driving dynamics.
To match its powerhouse engine, the Chevelle's handling has been
elevated with an upgraded suspension. Ridetech front control arms,
coil-over shocks, and oversized anti-sway bars provide excellent
balance and control, while tubular rear control arms add rigidity.
Wilwood four-wheel disc brakes with polished calipers and a Wilwood
master cylinder deliver stopping power as impressive as the car's
acceleration.
Step inside, and you'll find a cabin that redefines luxury. The
custom blue leather interior is an artful blend of detail and
comfort, featuring reclining bucket seats, a full-length custom
center console with integrated rear speakers, and hand-fabricated
door panels with bespoke speaker enclosures. Contrasting square
weave carpet and a leather-wrapped dash pad add a touch of vintage
elegance, while modern amenities like power windows, Vintage Air
climate control, and upgraded retro-look Dakota Digital gauges make
every journey a pleasure. The leather-wrapped steering wheel atop a
tilt steering column enhances driver comfort, while the power
convertible top invites effortless open-air cruising.
Built for both show and go, this Chevelle is as functional as it is
beautiful. The power steering and oversized Wilwood brakes make it
a joy to drive, while custom fabrication throughout the build
showcases meticulous attention to detail. From its high-performance
drivetrain to its luxurious interior, this restomod is a perfect
example of what happens when classic style meets modern
engineering.

delivers top-tier performance, this 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle
Convertible Restomod is your dream car. Whether cruising the
boulevard or stealing the spotlight at a car show, this droptop is
