Equipment
396/375hp, 4-speed, pushbutton radio, heater, console, Rally wheels with hubcaps and trim rings, Wide Oval tires, invoice and Protect-o-Plate documented.
Condition
Impressively flat and even-fitting body panels and even gaps. Some gorilla hit the passenger's door window wit a rotary sander, the rest of the glass is very good. Beautiful paint, pristine upholstery and gauges. The engine compartment is dusty and someone didn't clean up an oil dribble after topping off. These are minor complaints on an exceptional example.
Market commentary
The Kissimmee bidders overlooked the deficient detailing of this SS 396 and instead focused on the quality of the restoration, the drivetrain and the documentation. It's a superior price, but no more than the quality of the Chevelle deserved.
