Found: 66 SS 396 Chevelle
 

Was visiting family in PA this week, and my brother-in-law took me to see a 66 SS he is contemplating purchasing.

It's a 138 code car, with the paint code: M-M.

It's a 4 spd with a small block now, and I am trying to get the rest of the cowl tag.

Not a supercar, but still pretty cool.

Does anyone know what that paint code is?

OK, figured it out, Aztec Bronze.

So, how do I figure out what engine this car came with, along with options? Is the build sheet pretty much the only thing I can look for?

Paperwork is all gone, but the interior seems to be relatively in-tact.

Yes, unless you're fortunate enough to have a car that was either built in or sold new in Canada. I'm not sure if they were building 66 Chevelles in Canada, though https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

It's partially blue, but mostly rusted primer.

If the Vin is correct it is for a 4 door 66 Chevelle.
