1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Convertible, Marina Blue, Matching Numbers 396 4-Speed, 1 of 2,286 Produced When you talk about true American muscle with open-top freedom, this is the conversation starter. This 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Convertible is a rare and highly desirable example one of only 2,286 SS convertibles produced in 1966. That production number alone puts this car in a different category. Combine that rarity with its original matching-numbers drivetrain and documented pedigree, and you have a car that serious collectors understand immediately. Finished in very nice Marina Blue paint, this Chevelle has the stance, sound, and presence that defines mid-60s big-block muscle. The paint presents beautifully, complementing the crisp body lines that made the ’66 Chevelle one of Chevrolet’s most iconic designs. Under the hood sits the original matching-numbers 396 cubic inch / 325 horsepower Big Block V8. This is the real deal not a replacement, not a tribute but the engine the car was born with. It is paired with a 4-speed manual transmission, delivering the authentic muscle car driving experience exactly as Chevrolet intended. Out back is a 12-bolt rear end with 3.31 gears and CF code Posi Traction, giving the car strong acceleration and balanced cruising capability. It is also upgraded with 4-wheel disc brakes, providing improved stopping performance and drivability. Key Features: 1 of only 2,286 SS Convertibles produced in 1966 Original Matching Numbers 396 / 325 HP Big Block V8 4-Speed Manual Transmission 12 Bolt 3.31 CF Code Posi Traction Rear End 4 Wheel Disc Brakes Original Owner's Manual Original Rare Protecto Plate New Convertible Top Original Bucket Seat Interior with Console Factory Knee Knocker Tach Brand New Cooper Cobra Tires 15” Torque Thrust Wheels The interior remains true to its heritage with original bucket seats, center console, and the highly desirable knee knocker tach mounted under the dash — a signature muscle-era feature that enthusiasts love. The cabin presents extremely well and maintains the authentic Super Sport feel. The new convertible top operates as it should and makes this car perfect for weekend cruising, shows, and events. It rides on brand new Cooper Cobra tires wrapped around 15-inch Torque Thrust wheels, giving it the perfect blend of period-correct attitude with modern reliability. Documentation matters and this car delivers. It comes with its original owner’s manual and the original Protecto Plate, which is becoming increasingly rare to find. That level of originality and paperwork adds significant value and confidence for the next owner. Most importantly, this Chevelle runs and drives excellent. It starts strong, shifts properly, pulls hard through the gears, and delivers that unmistakable big block sound that only a true 396 can provide. This is not just another Chevelle. This is a rare, documented, matching-numbers 1966 SS Convertible in one of the most desirable colors Chevrolet offered. This is a great car and opportunities like this do not come around often. While we do our best to provide the highest quality muscle cars with an honest and reliable description and realize the importance of transparency when selling vehicles. That being said, we have not built, modified, changed or personally owned this vehicle. Whether this vehicle is consigned or owned by Past & Present Motor Cars we do not know the vehicles complete history since new. We want to be clear and try to answer any questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we not only welcome but we encourage 3rd party independent inspections. Please inquire prior to purchase to make sure the advertised vehicle has not already been sold. We list our vehicles on multiple websites and a vehicle can sell at any time. If a customer chooses to purchase sight unseen (many of our customers choose this option) the customer accepts the vehicle AS IS and WHERE IS and understands we cannot address concerns after purchase. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale. A Classic Car Warranty is Available for Purchase from a 3rd Party. Please speak to our Sales Associate or Company Representative for more information.
