You've totally lost me here.

Last I remember the 66 Chevelle was offered in a SS.
To me that's one of the legends of Muscle cars for that era, and definitely not of the 50's design genre.

It’s not a SS it’s a Malibu and the dash style differs from the SS, the car itself is definitely a legend in the muscle car world but the non SS interior leaves a lot to be desired. I was going to buy a SS interior and replace it with that but I don’t want to spend that much money when I like the custom look better. To me a makeshift interior that looks more custom and “convenient” not original gives a stronger feeling of the powerful muscle car era. I don’t want a car that looks polished like an original classic that’s been in a museum I want a car that looks like it was made for power in someone’s garage back in the 70’s, a sort of slapped together look, real muscle not just a preserved factory production.
