The Biscayne, a budget-friendly alternative to the more luxurious Impala, was a popular choice among consumers. Originally intended for fleet use only, the Biscayne gained popularity among all potential buyers.
One of the reasons the Biscayne was appealing was its shared roots with the Impala. Despite lacking some of the Impala’s high-end features, the Biscayne still sported similar styling and offered certain engine options.
In 1966, Chevrolet introduced the 427 engine, which was also available in the Impala and produced an impressive 425 horsepower. This powerful engine was offered in the Biscayne as well, providing a thrilling driving experience without the extra cost.
The 1966 Biscayne featured in these photos is equipped with a 283 engine and has remarkably low mileage, with only 30,000 miles on the clock. The car has undergone a complete restoration, although it is uncertain if the original setup was retained. To determine the car’s originality and the quality of the restoration, it is recommended to inspect it in person. The owner is also willing to provide additional images upon request.
According to the owner, the car has always been stored in a garage, and with its flawless condition and restoration, there are no concerns about rust or damage. While it can be driven daily, it would be ideal to keep the Biscayne in a heated garage to preserve its pristine condition and low mileage.
Priced at $18,500, the Biscayne offers good value considering its history as a less successful model compared to the Impala or Bel Air. The car is located near Easton, and to protect its low mileage, it is recommended to transport it on a trailer.
