Mine was only a 283 - 2 speed automatic. But they did come with 327, 396 and 427’s.

1967 Chevrolet Biscayne

Rare! #s match, factory a/c, frame off.

My cousin's '65 Chevy ll Nova was like that. He was always starting it, then taking the keys out and putting them back in his pocket....

Yes, I have similar memories about the early-60s GMs.

My 1966 BelAir did NOT allow the key to be removed... not when it was new-ish anyway, it did in later years. Dad bought the car in 1967 and it was in the family until 1982, when I had it at school.

Like @Caman96's Impala, our 1966 BelAir sedan was a 283 with the twin-slip slop-o-matic, no A/C. It's shifter on the tree. I'm guessing @Caman96's had a console shift.

My brother had a 1966 Impala convertable for a time, pretty sure it was a 283 as well because it wasn't a fast car. I remember the shifter was on the console, had A/C.

@Caman96 You could get a 409 in 64 as well

To me, across the board, the sixties were the greatest for muscle cars. So many options…
I knew someone back in the day with an SS 409.

I’ll settle on a ‘68 426 Dual Cross-Ram Hemi Charger then.

His Nova was a 4 door sedan, 283 and powerglide. About three different shades of white outside, but he had a nice blue velour interior in it, and a good stereo, and he'd fixed all the front end issues these are notorious for. As long as you eased into it on a standing start, that car was a hard runner. I shoulda bought it when he sold it(he got a new Toyota 4x4 mini truck because the other guys at work were ragging on him about the Nova). But I had recently bought a project car, and was broke....

I was told those Nova bodies were lightweight, and thus relatively quick, but I can't say I've ever run one across a scale to see how it tips the counterweights.
