Chevrolet first introduced the Caprice in 1965 as their top-of-the-line full size luxury car in response to Ford's LTD, available only as a four-door hardtop. For 1966, Chevrolet revealed the first Caprice two-door hardtop. The Caprice coupe was not just an Impala with a fancy interior, it had a unique formal roof line, special wheel covers, different rocker moldings and beautiful taillights with horizontal chrome ribs to distinguish itself from the Impala, as well as a luxurious interior. The elegant body lines of this 1966 Caprice are enhanced with a custom silver and black two-tone paint scheme complemented by a set of chrome 17-inch Foose wheels wrapped with Nitto performance tires.
The restored interior features the comfortable original Strato bench seat with fold-down armrest and attractive custom upholstery done in a similar pattern to the original design. A Vintage Air system keeps the cabin cool on hot days.
Highlights:
• First year two-door Caprice
• 396 Big Block power
• Automatic transmission
• Front power disc brakes
• 17-inch Foose wheels

Powering this classic is the optional big block 396 V8 engine fitted with an aluminum Edelbrock Performer intake and Edelbrock carburetor for increased performance and reliability.
