From 1959 to 1972, the Biscayne was Chevrolet’s entry-level full-size car (the Del Ray had that distinction in 1958). If you were looking for roomy but stark transportation, the Biscayne was a good choice, and most were purchased with few extras. This 1966 2-door sedan reads like a one-family car that may have been used by multiple family members over the past 60 years. It needs work and has plenty of patina for those so inclined. Located in Albuquerque, New Mexico, this fixer-upper is available here on eBay for $9,999.

This vehicle is described as “Aunt Mae’s” car, but it been sitting long enough for the tires to have gone bad. The mileage is 49,000, and we’re told they’re actual, so maybe this automobile was primarily a grocery getter over the decades. The only options from the factory may have been an automatic transmission (2-speed Powerglide) and power steering. A 250 cubic inch inline-6 sits under the hood, the first year that upgrade to the 230 would be offered.

The photos are few and don’t show the whole car. This car doesn’t appear to be rusty, but it has a small crunch in the driver’s side front fender. That may have led to the radiator brace being bent, or at least that’s what it looks like in one of the photos. The condition of the interior is a mystery, but if the exterior had been weathered by the Sun, the seats may have met that same fate.

Surviving paperwork shows the car was purchased new at Ed Black Chevrolet, which was a local dealer back in the day. So, it’s possible this car has not known what any of the other 49 states look like. The seller says the Chevy will likely need a new master brake cylinder, along with the rubber donuts at all four corners. If you’re looking for a 100% original car to restore, would this bare bones Chevy fit your needs? BTW, thanks, Mitchell G., for the tip!
