Exterior Upgrades

EE - Danube Blue

When was the last time you saw a Danube Blue, 360 horse, 4 speed, '66 Chevelle SS? 

You're probably thinking to yourself... not very often right?

As this one sits today, it retains all of its original body panels and has had one repaint about 20 years ago. The original bumpers appear to have been re-chromed at some point but all the other exterior trim piece remain untouched. The glass is all original with minor scratching here and there. The door gaps are quite good as well as is the hood and trunk alignment.

While the paint remains in decent shape for it's age except for the paint touch ups, I have no immediate plans to repaint the car.

I was fortunate enough to come across a set of five (5) 7.75 x 14 NOS Firestone Deluxe Champions red line tires which I have mounted on 14 x 6" JK steel rims with the correct "A3" "6" stampings that have been painted black.  I will run standard wheel covers with this wheel and tire combo as seen in the 1966 dealer brochure. Due to the age of the rubber, this set up is for show only even though the tires had never been previously mounted.

For the street, I have picked up a another set of 14 x 6" JK's and painted them Danube Blue along with G70-14 Firestone Wide Oval red lines which are featured at the bottom of the main page.
