Vehicle Description
There's just something about a classic Mopar that makes you pay
attention. You know there were fewer of these made compared to the
Fords or Chevys back in the 60s. So when you see something as rare
as this 1966 Dodge Coronet convertible, you just want to know more.
And since this has a 440 V8 and four-on-the-floor, it has your
muscle car senses revving.
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 flare
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. So it looks
muscular, especially when finished in red. This one impresses with
details like the wide chrome bumpers, complete badging, and good
body lines. Plus, the Coronet 500 has extra trim on the rear
fenders that gives this a hit of an aggressive style. And the
sporty feeling continues on the large dual exhaust tips and Mopar
road wheels.
The black convertible top looks attractive against the red body,
and so it's great to see the same color combo when you take it
down. This full black interior has an attractive and detailed
style. Plus, you can see there's plenty of room to bring everyone
along for the ride. There's room for improvement, including if you
want to add a stereo or the components to return the air
conditioning. It's all part of how the value price leaves room in
your budget for whatever way you want to personalize this drop-top.
But what we love is how you get a driver's classic from day one.
After all, front bucket seats, a center console, floor shifter, and
a three-spoke steering wheel are all going to speak to your
enthusiast's soul.
Under the hood is the mighty Magnum powerhouse. We all love Mopar's
big 440 cubic-inch V8, and so you'll happily lift the hood and show
off that air grabber. It inhales deeply with an Edelbrock
four-barrel carburetor, and the motor end exhales with a sweet tune
out of the dual exhaust. There's plenty of power in this
strong-running motor, and you get to fully harness it with the
control of the four-speed manual transmission. And the power
steering, front disc brakes, and wide Cooper Cobra tires make for
an all-around solid driver.
If you love a great drop-top, it will be hard to get more classic
American metal or classic American muscle for the money. Call
