Vehicle Description
There's just something about a classic Mopar that makes you pay
attention, especially with this 1966 Dodge Coronet 500 convertible.
With V8 power, a terrific color combo, and the distinct
square-jawed look make it definitely attractive.
White is particularly nice when it's done correctly. The respray of
the factory color gives this a nice shine when the light hits it,
and that's what you want in a sunshine-friendly convertible. Dodge
really got the design right in '66. This classic has a wide stance
that can make this intermediate look full-sized. There's plenty of
style touches like the creases along the side that flares out on
the quarters, and that cool taffy-pulled rear end that couldn't
space out D-O-D-G-E any wider if it tried. Bright bumpers, complete
trim, and upgraded alloys with a classic Mag 500 look give this a
nice presence. But our favorite part is the custom pinstriping. The
red draws extra attention to some of the best line in the
sheetmetal, and at the same time, it coordinates nicely with the
interior.
The red interior is a terrific color combo against the white
exterior. These Dodges really had style with a premium ribbed
pattern on the seats that's continues on the door panels and even
the dash. Plus, this is a driver's machine with bucket seats and a
center console. You also have provisions for a power convertible
top. While this all looks quite stock, you do get the right
upgrades. The wood-rimmed steering wheel feels grippy in your
hands. And the AM/FM/CD stereo not only gives you modern driving
music, but also there's a USB input to plug in your iPod or charge
your phone.
The 318 cubic-inch V8 is the correct displacement for this Mopar,
but you can instantly see that this one has been thoroughly
upgraded. Ribbed Holley valve covers and a matching ribbed long air
topper have the look of power. And this V8 delivers that
performance with upgrades like an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor,
an Edelbrock aluminum intake, hi-temp wires, and long tube headers
that feed a sweet-sounding dual exhaust. The Torqueflite A727
three-speed transmission is built to handle the power, and at the
same time, deliver easy automatic shifting. Plus, more of this nice
driving attitude is in the power steering and power brakes w/discs
up front.
Complete with its original warranty card, this Coronet convertible
is the rare treat that offers power and distinction. So you know
it's a deal you want to get your hands on right now. Call
