Vehicle Description
The 1966 Toronado had head-turning styling with pop-up headlights
that swung up in front of simulated hood scoops. Vacuum operated, a
locking system was utilized to ensure the lights locked in the "up"
position when the headlights were turned on. Flared wheel wells and
steel wheels with ten brake cooling slots enhanced the powerful
appearance, and a fastback roof line emphasized the fact that this
wasn't your typical Oldsmobile.
Full-view side windows lacked ventipanes, which were made obsolete
by a new draft-free ventilation system that swept up outside air in
volume, circulated it throughout the passenger compartment, and
exhausted it outside through vents below the rear window. All with
the windows up, and in total silence.
Due to its front wheel drive configuration, the Toronado had a very
spacious interior, with a seating capacity of six passengers. Flat
floors front and rear gave occupants plenty of room to stretch
their legs, and the absence of a hump running down the center of
the car gave new owners something to discuss with friends. Two
interior trim levels were offered: the standard Toronado interior
featured ribbed vinyl upholstery with bench seats, and can be
identified by the short armrests on the front doors and the single
inside door handle to open the door. The optional Deluxe interiors
included Strato Seats in front which featured a center fold down
armrest, full-length door armrests with dual door handles that
allowed rear passengers to open the doors, a choice of all-vinyl or
cloth and vinyl upholstery, and the provision of recessed controls
for the optional power windows, seat, and door locks mounted in the
front armrests.
The Toronado offered a long list of standard features which
included the 425 Super Rocket V-8 engine, Turbo Hydra-Matic drive,
power steering, power brakes, deep pile carpeting, heater and
defroster, ashtrays with individual lighters, padded sun visors,
padded instrument panel, back-up lights, interior courtesy lights,
Guard-Beam frame, drum-type speedometer, and dual-outlet exhaust
system.
