1966 Chevrolet Chevy II SS

1966 Chevrolet Chevy II

It is not easy to find a solid Gen2 Chevy II. Nice ones are scarce indeed, but this 1966 Nova sport coupe is an outstanding example of this classic. Based on the VIN (118...), our Nova left the factory as a somewhat rare model – a 'Super Sport' V-8. It has also been the beneficiary of a careful restoration with substantial mechanical upgrades. The Regal Red exterior (R code) was reshot in 2008 and all chrome/stainless trim is in good condition. Tinted windows, 16” Weld wheels w/Goodyear Eagles and Nova SS badging complete the exterior package. A restored red interior includes new vinyl upholstery, carpeting, Sunpro gauges, custom wheel, AM/FM/cassette stereo system (currently inop) and an SS console that holds the 4-speed shifter. A 350ci/4-bolt GM crate motor (based on engine stamping) has replaced the original V8 and is dressed to look very much like the 327/350hp 'L79' of the era. It is fitted with an aluminum intake, Holley 600cfm carb and GM 'rams horn' exhaust manifolds that exit to a stainless exhaust. This potent small-block is mated to a 4-speed manual gearbox and 10-bolt positraction differential with 3.43:1 gears. A solid chassis is fitted with power steering and upgraded power disc/drum brakes w/dual master. This rare Chevy II SS is a very nice performance package - an affordable Bowtie classic for your garage.
