in Classics is excited and proud to offer to you today this incredibly rare 1966 Chevrolet L72 Biscayne! We get some amazing cars here at in Classics, but having a car like this one is literally like having a live unicorn in captivity! This fully documented Biscayne is one of only 183 L72-powered ''Bisquicks'' produced and one of 11 believed to still exist today. This car comes to us with a full owner history, original sales invoice, original window sticker, vintage photos of the car, and restoration receipts from 2013. This very special ride was awarded an AACA national first prize in 2014 and was featured in the mber 1989 edition of cle ine (copy included with sale). To make it even cooler, it has only 29,911 documented miles on the odometer!

This Biscayne was originally purchased in the spring of 1966 at son Chevrolet in rior, sin. The first owner, John Enlund traded in his 1965 GTO tri-power for what he knew was a sleeper that would be an absolute beast at the track. He raced his new black beauty at local tracks for only a year before he was called up for service in etnam and sold the car to a 20-year old named . s than a year later, young had pushed the Biscayne too hard at the track and blew the original 427. The engine was quickly replaced by a service replacement block and went on to race and enjoy the car for almost 20 years before treating it to a frame-off restoration in the mid 1980's. Now dressed in a new coat of edo Black lacquer paint along with many NOS parts, the car caught the attention of Joe of New Jersey. Joe corresponded with for 2 years before he finally convinced him to sell him the car ??“ and we actually have a couple of letters that they sent to each other in 1986-87 discussing the car! Shortly after buying the car, Joe found a dated original 1966 4-bolt main 3869942 block, had it rebuilt to factory stock, and put it in the Biscayne. He also removed the headers that were on it and re-installed the original exhaust manifolds, rebuilt the original y carburetor, and added quite a few NOS parts to bring the car back to its original glory. ng the following 25 years that Mr. owned the car he drove it very sparingly and predominately trailered it to r-Chevy shows ??“ taking home more than a few first place awards. In 2013 a gentleman from Ohio named j bought the Biscayne from Joe and immediately set forth on a 300 hour refresh of the car that included work on the original 4-core HD radiator, a transmission rebuild, adding 1966 dated plug wires, paint work, some replating, and a lot of re-detailing. Like Joe, put almost no miles on the car and just took it to shows. The Bisquick changed hands again just 5 years later when another Ohio gentleman took possesion and continued to fine-tune the car with more NOS parts and even more intricate detailing and adjusting. The result of all of this love and labor is the stunningly beautiful black beast of a Biscayne that stands before us today!

The exterior of this Biscayne is a study in artful simplicity. Smooth, deep edo Black uer covers the long laser-straight body. The stainless horizontal front grille sits above a mirror-like chrome bumper and is flanked by dual side by side T3 headlights. On the grille you'll find a small AACA plaque from its first place win in 2014. h the windshield and rear window feature bright trim and all of the glass on the car is original. A chrome side mirror with bowtie insignia and bright door handles add a small spark of contrast against the dark body. 427 -Jet badges on the front of the fenders are the only giveaway of the power that lies beneath the hood. At the rear of the car, rather ordinary rectangular tail lights float between another gleaming chrome bumper, a colorful Chevrolet crest, and an off-set ''Chevrolet'' script. Topping of the cool exterior look are the original 6'' black steel wheels with bright dog dish hubcaps that sport red bowties at the center. The steelies are wrapped in a set of Power Streak blackwall bias-ply tires.

der the big black hood is a truly show-quality engine bay that is home to the same 1966 427 solid lifter V-8 (casting#3. This bright orange L72 big block spins a stout 11:1 compression into a whopping 425hp! Atop the big V-8 are cast iron heads, orange valve covers, a factory aluminum intake, a correct 3246 y 4-barrel carburetor, and an NOS black dual-snorkel air cleaner with ''427 -Jet 425hp'' sticker. present, but disconnected, is the original transistor ignition (now points ignition). Up front you'll find the original, L72 Biscayne-specific CW code 4-core HD radiator with correct shroud and finger guard. Even small details like correct '66 plug wires, GM-branded hoses with tower clamps, GM-coded belts, Delco battery topper, and correct decals have been attended to. Exhaust flows through beautifully refinished cast manifolds, aluminum pipes, and turbo mufflers with a nicely subdued rumble. Other items of note are a single reservoir for the manual drum brakes, manual steering, an NOS fan clutch, and an NOS idler pulley. The powerful 427 is mated up to a 1967-dated M21 4-speed (rebuilt in 2013) that puts down power to the pavement via a 12-bolt GM rear axle with tall 4.56 gears ??“ so be prepared to be thrown back in your seat when you hit the gas! The undercarriage of this Biscayne has been attended to with the same level of quality as the top side of the car. The solid frame and straight floorpans have been coated in the same satin black that details the cars engine bay. The heavy-duty F41 sports suspension has been completely rebuilt and features NOS Chevrolet shocks that offer a smooth ride feel.

The stunning red interior of this Bisquick is done to the same high standard as the rest of the car and is a perfect color pairing with the black exterior. The comfortable cloth and vinyl bench seats have been recovered in correct NOS hides and the front bench has seat belts, just as it came from the factory. The floors are covered in fresh, high-quality red hook & loop carpet that are kept nice with red rubber floormats. ing up from the floor is a dog-leg shifter with finger-lifts and a white pattern ball that controls the transmission. The shifter meets the floor with an NOS black boot that looks perfect. A crack-free red vinyl dashpad sits atop a red painted metal dash that is home to a large 120mph speedometer, fuel gauge, and a rare 7K tachometer that all work as they should. trim surrounds the gauges as well as what we believe to be the original push-button Delco AM radio (that still works!). w the radio are simplistic controls for the working heat and fan controls. Directly ahead of the driver is a red 2-spoke steering wheel with a bright horn ring and a blue bowtie at the center. In front of the passenger is an empty glovebox with an original tire pressure sticker on the inside of the door. head are a tight white vinyl headliner and dual visors. Around back you'll find a simply perfect trunk with a full matching spare, OEM jack, and correct decals beneath the decklid.

This is a rare opportunity to own an incredibly well documented, intricately restored piece of n automotive history! This Biscayne is the type of car that reminds all of us classic car enthusiasts why we love the hobby so much. We urge you to come see this very special car in person ??“ we guarantee you will not be disappointed! our friendly staff a call today and be the one who serves as the next caretaker of this rare and beautiful gem!
