1966 Chevrolet Impala 396 Big Block, Factory Marina Blue

1966 Chevrolet Impala Sport Coupe, 396 Big Block, Factory Marina Blue This 1966 Chevrolet Impala Sport Coupe is powered by a 396ci Turbojet V8 paired with a Turbo 400 three speed automatic transmission, delivering smooth, confident big-block performance. The car is finished in its factory correct Marina Blue over a black vinyl interior, offering a timeless and highly desirable Super Sport combination. The Impala rides on 15-inch Rally style wheels with chrome center caps and trim rings, wrapped in Challenger Regul Sport tires. Suspension consists of a traditional coil-spring setup enhanced with KYB shocks, while braking is handled by power-assisted front disc brakes and rear drums, providing improved stopping performance. Exterior details include Impala SS badging, quad headlights, dual side mirrors, chrome front and rear bumpers, and dual exhaust outlets, all contributing to the classic appearance. The car presents very well overall, showing as a strong driver with honest character. Inside, the cabin features front bucket seats and a rear bench trimmed in black vinyl, complemented by woodgrain accents on the dashboard and center console. Interior equipment includes air conditioning, cabin heat, an analog clock, and a retro-look digital stereo that blends modern functionality with classic styling. The two-spoke steering wheel sits ahead of a horizontal 120-mph speedometer and fuel gauge, while AutoMeter gauges for oil pressure and water temperature are discreetly mounted in the center console. Under the hood, the 396ci V8 is equipped with a four-barrel carburetor and aluminum radiator, and spent gases exit through a dual exhaust system. Power is sent to the rear wheels via the Turbo 400 automatic transmission and a 10-bolt rear axle. The car runs and drives great, offering a confident and enjoyable driving experience. Nearly $7,000 has recently been invested to ensure the vehicle is fully sorted mechanically and ready for its next owner. This work was completed to bring the car up to par not as a project, but as a turn key classic that can be driven and enjoyed immediately.

While we do our best to provide the highest quality muscle cars with an honest and reliable description and realize the importance of transparency when selling vehicles. That being said, we have not built, modified, changed or personally owned this vehicle. Whether this vehicle is consigned or owned by Past & Present Motor Cars we do not know the vehicles complete history since new. We want to be clear and try to answer any questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we not only welcome but we encourage 3rd party independent inspections. Please inquire prior to purchase to make sure the advertised vehicle has not already been sold. We list our vehicles on multiple websites and a vehicle can sell at any time. If a customer chooses to purchase sight unseen (many of our customers choose this option) the customer accepts the vehicle AS IS and WHERE IS and understands we cannot address concerns after purchase. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
