66 chevy chevelle 396 with a 5 speed OD Tremec transmission

Description for Chevrolet Chevelle 1966

This is a 1966 chevy chevelle Malibu with a 396 engine and a 5 speed tremec transmission. The engine was rebuilt 10 years ago and the 5 speed was swapped in at the same time in Arizona. I drove this car from Arizona to NY without a problem. about 2500 miles. Engine runs strong. well balanced. no issues with the transmission. Since then the car has been stored. very little miles. started at least monthly and driven a few miles. The car starts up so well it even fires up at the same time during cranking!I replaced just about every mechanical component – radiator. all suspension parts including hotchkis upper and lower control arms. edelbrock shocks. large sway bar. AGR gear box. added a power booster with front discs. replaced wiring harnesses + fuse box. alternator. electronic ignition. custom gauges on dash. all four springs have been replaced as well as the rear control arms. The floor boards have been replaced just before I purchased the car. I painted the undercarriage with por15. the floors are solid no rust. I also had the car painted a chevy metallic blue from the late 60’s. I cant remember exactly the colors name. The car has 17x8 centerline wheels with 255/45 falken tires all around. The carb is a Qjet 750 – 2 years old. The only things I can think of that has not been replaced is the exhaust system. gas tank. and rear differential. What does it need?There is a small dent on the front right fender on the topA tear in the headliner – also needs the rear side panelsThe passenger seat head rest has a small tear. For the interior I have the door panels. a new headliner along with the rear back panels. center console – see picturesFor the exterior I have sill plates. rocker panel molding along with rear quarter. many other chrome pieces for the rear lights. 396 badge - see picturesIn order to match the year. the seats need to be Reupholstered – the covers to not match and are not correct for the year. The front seats are from a 1969 chevy – I preferred headrest seats for safety.
