This is Mike Crowns' Danube Blue '66 Chevelle from S.E. Pennsylvania with the 138176 Vin Number. The 138176 vin is the number sequence which signifies a 66 Chevelle as being a real SS. Danube Blue paint as denoted by the EE paint code on the Trim Tag, is a somewhat rare color. You don't see many 66's painted this color., it's a dark blue and depending on the light, appears black. Danube Blue was a carry over color from the '65 model year, so few 66 Chevelles got this paint color. The car is painted in a Single Stage Urethane, no clear coat. It's an original California car, built at the Fremont, California assembly plant during the 4th week of December 1965. The first owner purchased the car from De Anza Chevrolet in Riverside, CA and took possession on December 29, 1965. I have the full previous owners history of the car, original Owner Protecto Plate, original ( though quite frail ) and various other original documents/paperwork which support this car's history and factory options. The car has been treated to a full Frame Off Restoration with considerable attention given to factory original details, though the photos here just don't show how much finite detail is really present. Many NOS ( new old stock) parts have been used throughout the restoration, if NOS could not be obtained, original parts were restored.
