Back in 1966, if you wanted to impress your friends with a high performance car, chances are you ordered up a Chevelle SS, GTO or maybe even a Charger or a Shelby Mustang.
For a select few, a more subtle approach was taken. When the original owner of Ken Tibors 1966 Bel Air visited the showroom, he obviously wanted to go fast, but didn't want everyone to know his intent. 427/425 horsepower engine; check...4-speed transmission; check...posi-traction rear with a stout gear; check!
Now how about a color that even your Grandma would like; yep, Beige with a Fawn bench seat interior should do it! Ken found this car with just over 40,000 miles on the odometer in North Carolina and proceeded to perform a full restoration at his home. Paintwork is credited to Pulera Collision while engine work was handled by Don's Automotive. The car is now restored to "as delivered" condition. Be sure to look for this one at the show and take a peak under the hood to see some real American Muscle!
