Go big or go home! From its high-voltage exterior to its pristine interior, to the ultra-potent big block lurking under its cowl hood, this 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS was clearly configured to make a big impact, and suffice to say, those efforts certainly succeeded. Its vibrant red paint retains an excellent gloss, and as you take a closer look, you'll see that its assortment of chrome exterior trim really presents nicely, as well. The cowl hood serves notice that there's some serious power onboard this classic, and the added set of show-stopping 15" chrome U. S. mag wheels accentuate its stance perfectly.
The black vinyl interior has been restored to exacting standards and retains a convincingly vintage appearance, with some top-tier enhancements added to the mix. Both the front buckets and rear bench seat are in great shape, looming over carpeting that's in matching condition. Further forward, the instrument cluster harbors a collection of clear, easily readable gauges joined by an AutoMeter tachometer on the steering column, as well as a trio of SunPro gauges mounted just below to monitor voltage, temperature, and oil pressure. With a Vintage Air climate control system on board and operating in top form, you'll be able to enjoy this ride in comfort year-round, and a retro-look AM/FM stereo with an auxiliary port is at the center of the dash to offer plenty of audio options.
As you raise the cowl hood, the first thing you'll likely notice is the sheer size of the big block V8 lurking at the center of the compartment. It began life with an already expansive 502 cubic inches and was bored out to 540 cubic inches from there. Built by a local shop with only top-quality components, the engine is fed by a four-barrel QFT carburetor sitting on top of an Edelbrock Victor Jr. manifold and produces a staggering 730+ horsepower. The ultra-potent V8 exhales into a pair of long tube headers leading to Magnaflow mufflers that produce a deep, rumbling tone with a tap on the accelerator pedal, and teams with a 5-speed manual Tremec TKX transmission that's geared to take full advantage of its unusually high output. An upgraded suspension at both ends equips this outstanding classic with enhanced handling and agility around corners, and since its power brakes have been converted to a hydroboost system, its stopping ability is downright impressive, as well.
