Today, Dodge is known for its legendary street racing machines. In the 1960s, the name of the game was the same. Dodge's famous Coronet brings to mind images of big performance and killer styling. This 1966 Dodge Coronet 500 is no exception, with big-block horses running inside its engine bay and its dramatic bodylines and hood scoops. Powered by a Mopar 440 C.I. V8 breathing through a high-rise intake and 4-barrel carburetor, this '66 Dodge packs plenty of punch under the hood. Torque is put to the pavement through a 3-speed automatic transmission with a Hurst "T-Grip" shifter, shifting smoothly and seamlessly. The exterior is covered in an absolutely stunning "Bright Red" paintjob, reflecting like a mirror in the sun after being buffed to a brilliant shine. It makes the laser-straight bodylines of this Coronet really stand out, and the chrome brightwork looks absolutely fantastic laid out against that bright red paint. In addition, the floors, frame rails, trunk, and jambs are all rock-solid and in great shape! Opening the twin doors reveals a beautifully-matching red vinyl interior, complete with comfy patterned bucket seats and a full center console. Options on this mean '66 Dodge include power steering, aluminum heads, an aluminum radiator, MSD ignition, Hedman aftermarket headers, a high-rise intake manifold, a Hurst "T-Grip" shifter, factory gauges, an aftermarket SunPro tachometer, an aftermarket Mopar steering wheel, an original AM radio, under-dash aux. gauges, a heater, an updated AMFM/CD stereo, aftermarket rear speakers, vent windows, hood scoops, and an aggressive-sounding Thrush dual exhaust system. The car rides on a sleek set of 15" Magnum 500 wheels over B.F. Goodrich RWL tires for a look that recalls the glory days of '60s performance! Turn the key and that 440 V8 starts right up, and rest assured, this '66 Cornet is fast, fun, and a joy to drive.
