Featured on AutoHunter.com, the online auction platform driven by ClassicCars.com, is this 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396. 

Power comes from a 1968 396ci Turbo-Jet V8 and is delivered to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual gearbox. Features include bucket seats, power steering, an Edelbrock intake manifold, an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, a 12-bolt rear axle, and power brakes. Finished in red over a black vinyl interior, this Chevelle SS 396 comes with a clear title.  

According to the seller, the body was repainted red under previous ownership approximately 10 years ago. Exterior features include a big-block hood, a fender-mounted antenna, dual side mirrors, wheel well and rocker trim, and a black taillight panel. 

This Chevelle rides on a set of 14-inch wheels wrapped in Firestone Redline bias-ply tires. 

The cabin offers black vinyl seating with buckets in the front row, manual windows, power steering, and a floor-mounted manual transmission shifter.  

Important vehicle information is displayed on a 120-mph speedometer, a dash-mounted 7,000-rpm AutoMeter tachometer, and gauges for the fuel level, oil pressure, battery, and water temperature. The odometer shows 79,740 miles, but the true mileage on this vehicle is unknown. 

Under the big-block hood is a 1968 396ci Turbo-Jet V8. That comes equipped with an Edelbrock aluminum intake manifold and an Edlebrock four-barrel carburetor. The engine sends power to the back wheels through a four-speed manual transmission. The clutch was replaced and the flywheel was resurfaced recently, according to the seller. 

Handling is performed by an independent front suspension and a solid rear axle with a 12-bolt differential. Power drum brakes help bring this Chevelle to a stop. 

The auction for this 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 ends on Friday, July 19, 2024 at 11:30 a.m. (PDT).
