Chevrolet kind of quality in a slightly smaller size
Chevelle is for people who want a heaping measure of style and
value in a middle-sized automobile. Trim and maneuverable outside,
yet fit for a batch of six-footers inside.
Four series: Super
Sport 396, Malibu, Chevelle 300 Deluxe and Chevelle 300. And
twelve models: convertibles, sport coupes, wagons, 2 and 4-door
sedans. Even a dapper new Malibu Sport Sedan.
New styling's an important part of Chevelle's appeal. The 1966 models are especially big on looks. Broad new grille and bumper treatment; rakish new roof lines; curved side window; distinctive chrome accents for each series. Chevelle cuts quite a figure.
Under the bonnet, most Chevelles start with a standard 120-hp 194 Six or a standard 195-hp 283 V8 (depending on model). You can specify a 140-hp Six or other V8 power plants ranging up to a 275-hp 327 V8. Super Sport 396 models have a 325-hp 396 V8 standard, and a 360-hp 396 V8 can be ordered. The new Chevelle standard transmission is a fully synchronized 3-Speed.
Inside, a handsome new padded instrument panel groups controls the way they should be-businesslike, easily accessible for the driver. Pattern cloth upholstery carries out interior color schemes with a decorator's touch. As you might expect, Super Sport 396 models and the Malibu Convertible have all-vinyl interiors. Every wagon sports an all-vinyl interior too.
As if the going wasn't already some of the sweetest around, every Chevelle is now loaded with comfort and convenience items. Outside rearview mirror; padded instrument panel; padded sun visors; two-speed, glare-reducing windshield wipers and washers; backup lights; and shatter-resistant inside rearview mirror.
Order your 1966 Chevelle to suit your personal taste. You'll find a large selection of extra-cost Options and Custom Features listed, some of which are illustrated and described in the catalog.
