Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 (1966)
Kickdown's Take
by Art GeorgesThe Chevelle SS 396 is one of the absolute icons of the American muscle car era, and this particular example makes that especially clear. The Classic Car Group spent over four years completely restoring the vehicle; the cost of parts alone totaled around 23,000 euros. The appraisal report confirms its exceptional condition with a grade of 1-, noting that it has covered only 2,800 miles since the restoration. For collectors seeking a nearly mint-condition American classic, this is a rare opportunity.
