Some of Patrick’s earliest childhood memories were of the iconic taillights and trim covered pieces on the rear ends of 1966 Chevelles and Malibus.
Patrick’s been looking for a mid-sixties investment for several years but would only settle on something that truly spoke to him. When Patrick came across this 1966 Chevelle Super Sport in Daytona Yellow at a local auction it was yelling at him saying;
“Here I am, you had better take me home right now!”
The car was mostly original and fresh out of a frame-off rotisserie when he came across it, SS396-350 horsepower Chevelle with a rare Factory A/C. Ground Up SS396.com has been able to help Patrick out with some finishing touches and fixes for some of the “boo boos” on Patrick’s prized Chevelle. Patrick says;
“I’m very glad to have met a vendor that specializes in hard to find parts for these cherished pieces of Americana!”
