This stunning 1966 Chevy II L79 Nova is for sale in our Louisville
KY showroom. The L79 327/350 HP was one of the mightiest small
block motors that GM produced. Available and developed primarily
for the Corvette this motor would go on to be a staple in the
Hotrod community. In 1966 Chevy had a little known code at the
bottom of the Chevy II ordering pad L79. You marked that box and
that box alone wait a couple weeks for delivery and you would have
one of the most underrated cars to ever leave the factory. This
rare Chevy II is what many would consider a true sleeper. The
outside looks like any typical 66 Nova with its light blue paint
appearing almost a shade of silver. The clearcoat is thick and
shows little in the way of degration. With the panel fitment being
of the highest level this 66 is one for the ages. A lot of people
say its clean enough to eat off of but this one is. With the
original style battery set back under the hood and a host of other
things from the manifolds to the aircleaners this 66 is as if just
roller onto the floor. The Muncie M20 transmission is exactly what
you should expect in one of these rare little coupes as an
automatic just was not available. Naturally the rear end would have
to be the best and the best at that time was a 12 bolt Posi unit
giving the L79 one of the most durable drivetrains around. Open the
door and you quickly notice the strangest part of this L79, it's a
bench seat car. Though most L79's were ordered with the SS option
giving them buckets and a console this II was ordered as simple and
basic as possible. With the current owner having this baby for 18
years and only having a believed to be less than 60000 miles on the
odometer this car went from are to "you just don't find". Options
on this 1966 Chevy II Nova include AM Radio, Vinyl Interior, and
Radial tires on Steel Wheels with Hubcaps.To view this 1966
