1966 Chevrolet Chevelle Description

1966 Chevelle - Big Block, 5-Speed - Street Looks, Strip Power

1966 Chevy Malibu - looks so good it was owned by a 23-year Ford employee! The Chevelle was one of Chevrolet's best-selling cars, and with the Malibu as their top-of-the-line Chevelle, it's not hard to see why. The style evolved a little each year, and it's hard to argue with the classic looks of the '66 Chevelle.

This particular car was repainted about five years ago, and looks fresh and clean and glossy smooth. Even the door jambs look great! The interior is fantastic, the seats immaculate, and the carpet perfect. The interior door panels are flawless. The radio is just for looks, because who wants to be distracted from the song of the engine?

Speaking of the engine, despite all the above beauty and perfection, this car has essentially become a platform to hold one of the baddest, toughest, fastest motors available. Built by Mark Jones of VortecPro Racing & Machine in Colorado, this '66 Malibu boasts a bored and stroked 468ci V8 that makes 524 horsepower. It's fast enough to melt your face off. Some people think that's pretty cool. Sometimes their wives don't.

If you're looking for something civilized, please keep scanning our inventory, because-no disrespect intended-this car just isn't for you. If you're looking for an adrenaline rush in a good looking classic Chevy, however, this is your pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. And it won't take a pot of gold to buy, either, although just in case, financing is available.
