Nice seats.
Had a set of sparco’s in mine for a while. Fired them in the bush when I put a proper interior in it

So then last summer found a front clip for sale that had all the trim on it that mine was missing so went and picked it up and put the trim on mine.
Not going to make it a clone with all the badges but I do like the ss hood so put one of those on too.
Glad to see a build thread for this....sick of just seeing a random pic of it here and there.
Don’t see many 66 Chevelles. Very solid looking car!

The only thing I miss is how they hugged you on hard corners. The bench seat doesn’t quite do that well of a job it seems
month after I got the front clip the guy that sold it to me called me and said he was moving to eastern Washington and that he couldn’t take all the stuff he had with him and that I should come take s look.
The guy had a 66 elcamino and his kid a 67 that they where putting together they had taken what they wanted , he didn’t have time to list other things for sale due to his house selling the day after he listed it so I ended up with some nice 66 bucket seats ,a dash pad ,another core support and grill assembly and a complete dash with all the switch’s and such still in it.
So I came home put the buckets in and dash pad and then had fun just cruising around this summer.

Ya but those buckets just don’t look right in the car.The only thing I miss is how they hugged you on hard corners. The bench seat doesn’t quite do that well of a job it seems
Nope they don’t.
I had considered going buckets in mine, but for what most guys want for just a pair of seat frames around here I said forget it and put a bench in out of a 71 cutty.
after the new year and my bank account recovers from everything, anniversary in November, Xmas Daughter’s birthday beginning of Jan and sons st the end , I’ll order up trunk floor and rocker repair panels and some front disc brakes.

I love the 66 Chevelle's. Prob sell off any of my herd for one of those. What's the end result for this? Cruiser, drags, road racing?
Just a good looking car that I could take to cruise nights and have fun with , not going to be s trailer queen or full on drag car .
