1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Tribute Convertible Additional Info:

There was extra time, money, and effort that went into this 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS tribute to make sure you get plenty of cool and classic convertible style wrapped around a powerful big block package.
Chevrolet's Marina Blue always looks good on a convertible. It has the cool effect of an ocean wave. So it only gets better on an example that has been given a more recent professional respray of this factory-correct color. This makes for a high-gloss finish that you know will look terrific on a beach road (or just about any road where there's plenty of light radiating on this sunshine-friendly convertible.) And only adding to this car's radiance is the high-polish shine coming off of everything from the big chrome bumpers to the upgraded 17-inch Torq Thrust wheels. But more than just bright, this also has the right aggressive style. As a proper SS tribute, you get nice features like the blacked-out grille and faux hood louvers. And the crisp lines of this iconic Chevelle always look like there's some serious muscle under the hood (and this one certainly doesn't disappoint there, too.)
The black roof looks good against the bright blue exterior, but convertibles are meant to be open to the world. So it's great to see this one upgraded to a blue interior to give this a distinct look inside and out. The seats, carpeting, and door panels all feel nice from a more recent investment. So you know this is the kind of convertible that family and friends will want to go for a ride. But you don't need any of them to have fun in this convertible. It's a driver-oriented package with nice bucket front seats, a center console in-between, floor shifter, and the grippy factory-style steering wheel. And for vintage car lovers, nothing beats the stylish dash where it feels like one continuous panel that has the long speedometer and working factory AM radio.
The dark engine bay funnels your attention to the boldly colored big block in the middle. While the bright Chevy orange might give this 396 cubic-inch V8 a stock first impression, a second glance reveals a bit more. After all, those cool ribbed valve covers with SS 396 callouts were never from the factory. Plus, this big block has extra performance from an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock Performer intake, and shorty headers feeding the rumbling dual exhaust. It's a strong power package you want in a proper SS tribute. Plus, it's easy to show this one off because of nice driving features, like the three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and modern sport tires.
This is a sharp-looking droptop Chevelle built for plenty of big block fun. Don't miss this deal, call today!
