Many argue that at the height of its power, Chevy's Chevelle was
the king of the muscle cars, and that is a difficult point to
argue. In fact, the only way to make one of GM's baddest cars even
meaner is to use modern technology to improve its performance. That
thinking is why this 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Tribute Restomod
Convertible is the perfect choice for anyone seeking a powerful,
old-school-meets-new-school vehicle that turns heads everywhere it
goes. Fully repainted in this captivating deep blue, this boulevard
bruiser has been upgraded from its stock appearance to a modified
SS trim that screams 'get out of my way!'
Inside, we find a well-appointed, luxurious interior featuring a
pair of vivid vinyl bucket seats. A racy Grant three-spoke,
power-assisted steering wheel sits before a six-pod analog/digital
gauge cluster. An aftermarket AM/FM/AUX head unit also offers
Bluetooth connectivity, and it handles tunes, while the center
console, T-Bar shifter, and air conditioning add a touch of
practical flair, and the analog clock situated just before the
shifter makes it hard not to beat your last 0-60 mph run.
Under the aggressive hood of this Chevelle sits a 5.3-liter
overhead-valve L59 V-8 engine. Decked out with trick LS1-derived
241 aluminum heads, an iron block, and a composite intake manifold,
this motor expels spent gases via a MagnaFlow dual exhaust. That
power is routed through a 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission
before being sent to a 12-bolt rear.
