Ebay Find of the Day: Perfect 1966 396 Chevelle Super Sport?

In the car hobby the words “original” and “perfect” are usually mutually exclusive. Big Three production tolerances and paint quality in the sixties were certainly passable, but would pale in comparison to a restored car or today’s new car manufacturing techniques. Not to worry though, because If you want an “original” car without the patina niggling imperfections and has been massaged to glowing perfection, RKMotors out of Charlotte, NC has a big block SS Chevelle for you.

Sporting a very attractive Marina Blue exterior over black interior combination this 60,478 mile car has all the right option boxes ticked. A 396 CID V-8 with factory 10.25 to 1 compression, 325 horsepower and a massive 410 foot pounds of torque backed up by a Muncie 4-speed transmission. The dog dish caps and 14 inch steel wheels with 7.75-14 BF Goodrich Silvertown redlines are muscular yet sleepy. This factory spec car will always be cool as vintage General Motors design transcends time, the whims of fashion and never goes out of style.

As you can see from photos, the car has received a spit-roast, nut and bolt restoration with tolerances that were unheard of back in the sixties. The undercarriage is a work of art with shiny black paint on the underbody and nary a speck of dirt or grease in sight. Yeah, it’s “over restored,” and the rat rod guys probably would scoff at this thing as a rich guy’s plaything, but they can debate that amongst themselves. For now, click through and check out what a prefect Chevelle looks like.
