Having undergone a meticulous frame-off nut and bolt rotisserie restoration just over four years ago, this Chevelle exhibits a level of detail and craftsmanship that is truly unparalleled. The body is straight and clean with gorgeous paint, while the undercarriage reveals the same meticulous attention to detail, completed with factory markings underneath and on the firewall.

Originally coded “65/50” Olympic Gold with a white top, it was repainted to a beautiful light orange during the restoration, showcasing outstanding paint quality. With approximately 4,000 pampered miles since the restoration and all pictures current as of December 2021, displaying minimal wear since completion, this Chevelle SS396 is more than just a car—it’s a testament to the golden era of American muscle.
