'66 Chevelle SS396 Convertible, #s 360hp 4-sp
 
Neat car that sold at Mecum Glendale for $104,500 earlier this year. Apparently the current owner / dealer believes he can get even more for it as it's currently on eBay. Seems like a pretty risky strategy but I'll be watching the auction.

----I understand some modificatios to braking components on drum brake cars. I still wouldn't do it, but each to his own. I might have chosen a more dated looking master if I had done as nice a resto as this Chevelle seems to have had....Bill S

But those hub caps are the bomb.

I agree!! But the caps on this car are the '67 versions, as is the shift lever.

A shadowed pic of the block stamp, none of trans or TT?? (Or carb, dist, alt, starter) An experienced seller like this should offer better.

I can see why this car would bring the money at a Mecum auction, appears like a nice restoration. But for six figures the host of restoration details is like finger nails on a chalk board for me.
Hardware store bolts? Really?? - Bill W

Not to mention the cheap repop air cleaner.

Not if they really don't want them to be seen.....

66 Chevelle...
 
Many auction cars don't seem to hold up well on this site because of the knowledge base...with some exceptions.

Nice looking ride...but I would have a lot of questions. If you can or want to spend that kind of money for a Chevelle like this...I would want the Mike Crown seal of approval.
