66 Canadian Malibus SS to be auctioned by Mecumn
Permalink  
 


Not E-bay or craigs list; but looks to be a nice 66 convert.  Wish I had that AM radio that's listed in the ad; but looks to be AM/FM in the photo.  Is that how they painted the rear tail panel on the Canadian 66's?

 

What do you think it will go for?  May guess is:  $63,395.

Probably just a poor  re-upholstery job. Maybe they didn't use new buns or enough cotton pading. Yes, looks like the cheap re-pro floor mats that aren't even correct for 66.  Also the brake, clutch, and accelerator pads are incorrect and some engine details, such as the non-dripper valve covers for a 360hp, etc.

Just dependends if it got the original drivetrain or not.  Lots of documentation available for Canadian built 66 chevelles. With the vin, you can determine where and when it was sold, etc. Not so with the 66 US Chevelles.  Certianly did not come with the Towanda sticker on the valve covers. 66 am/fm radio go for $500 plus.  Excellent 65-66 mags go for a metric ton. Original wood wheel, go for $500 plus.

Wierd they didn't re-do the upholstery... the front seats look "tired". The rest of the car is teetering on the edge of "overdone", but then the original seats and crappy floor mats just kind of blow it.

I'd guess $50K
