This 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle 300 is a two-door sedan that is said to have been the subject of a refurbishment and custom build completed prior to the seller’s acquisition in July 2021. Work included a repaint in black, refreshing the interior using red vinyl upholstery, overhauling the braking and suspension systems, and installing a 454ci V8 paired with a TKO five-speed manual transmission and a Ford 9″ rear end with Moser axles and a 3.89:1 limited-slip differential. Additional equipment includes a Holley four-barrel carburetor, a Flowmaster dual exhaust system, an Edelbrock Victor Jr. intake manifold, an HEI electronic ignition system, power steering, front disc brakes, Hooker ceramic-coated exhaust headers, 17″ wheels, Optronics LED headlights, and Dakota Digital VHX instrumentation. The car is said to have been sold new at De Anza Chevrolet of Riverside, California, and was acquired by the seller in July 2021. This Chevelle 300 is now offered with service records and a clean California title in the seller’s name.
The car is said to have been repainted in its current shade of black during the refurbishment, which also included replacing the glass, powder-coating the side mirrors and door handles, and installing a silver-finished grille and bumpers. Additional exterior details include a cowl hood, black-finished window surrounds, aftermarket window tint, and Optronics LED headlights, daytime running lights, and indicators.
Black-finished 17″ steel wheels wear silver Chevrolet-branded hubcaps and are wrapped in Sumitomo HTR A/S P03 tires measuring 225/55 up front and 245/50 out back and showing 2020 and 2021 date codes, respectively. The car has been modified with power steering, front drop spindles, rear lowering springs, and power-assisted front disc brakes with a Wilwood master cylinder. A spare 15″ wheel wearing a 195/65 Street-H HH11 tire is located in the trunk.
The cabin was reportedly refreshed during the refurbishment and features front and rear bench seats trimmed in red vinyl with a matching dash pad and door panels. Chevelle-branded floor mats line the footwells, and equipment includes Billet Specialties pedals, lap belts, and a Custom AutoSound radio with auxiliary connectivity.
The Billet Specialties 14″ flat-bottomed steering wheel is mounted to an Ididit tilting column and frames Dakota Digital VHX instrumentation consisting of a 160-mph speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, and auxiliary gauges. The digital odometer indicates 260 miles, approximately 200 of which were added by the seller. Total mileage is unknown.
The replacement 454ci V8 features a Holley Street Brawler four-barrel carburetor, an Edelbrock Victor Jr. intake manifold, an HEI distributor, and rectangular-port cylinder heads along with the following:
- Fabricated aluminum radiator w/dual electric cooling fans
- Aluminum radiator overfill canister
- Aftermarket accessory pulley system
- Double-roller timing chain
- Russell braided fuel lines
- Taylor plug wires w/separators
- Carbon-fiber valve covers
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Tremec TKO five-speed manual transmission and a Ford 9″ rear end with Moser axles and a 3.89:1 limited-slip differential. A Flowmaster 2.5″ dual exhaust system is installed along with Hooker ceramic-coated exhaust headers.
