Vehicle Description
Motorcar Studio is pleased to offer this 1966 Dodge Coronet 500
Convertible. This Coronet has been with the same owner for several
years, driven as a fair weather car and has been serviced in our
shop since 2013. The unusual color combination of Medium Turquoise
Metallic over cream interior with matching convertible top is
striking. As a top-trim level 500 model this example is highly
optioned with a big-block 361ci V8, automatic, power steering,
power brakes, power top, power windows, bucket seats with console,
tach, padded dash and air. Oil pressure and temp gauges have been
added under the dash for more accuracy and a "Secret Audio" system
is installed so that the clean look of the original radio in the
dash remains. The engine is date-code correct and believed to be
original.
This example shows as an honest and attractive driver throughout.
An older repaint in the original turquoise is holding up well but
has a few minor flaws. The interior is mostly original and shows
well with a light patina, likewise the convertible top is in good
condition with a newer back window. Service records date back to
2001 and both the current owner and previous owner spent
considerable money over the years on service and repairs - items of
note have included brake work, steering box/linkage/hoses, timing
chain, carb rebuild, starter, bearings, A/C service and more. We've
always found this Coronet to be a good performer and nice car to
drive. Service records, service manual, convertible top supplement
and car cover are included.
Equipped with good options and certainly more unique than the
typical offerings, all at an approachable price point. If you are
looking for a classic American convertible with big V8 power,
comfortable seating for four adults and a cavernous trunk that can
accommodate two sets of golf clubs and a tennis bag with room to
spare (sporting goods not included with the sale), then you should
put this Coronet on the short list. For more information about this
