'66 Chevelle 300 427/4-sp

Use of the Malibu interior kit in a 300 is always a little disappointing. But I guess relatively few folks are willing to spend the $$$ (and wait forever) to get a correct interior from SMS.

But the bigger pet peeve of mine is the red painted metal in a fawn interior. Since they used all the stock Malibu interior parts, seems reasonable to assume they were trying to make it look stock inside; but the red painted stuff just ruins it, IMO.

On a side note, it is amazing the seemingly high percentage of 66-67 300's and 300-Deluxes that you see with factory air, versus the percentage of Malibus and SS's. I had a 67 300-Deluxe awhile back that was a base 6-cylinder car, 3-on-the-tree, no radio, and no options anywhere, except it had factory AC!!
