The Ultimate Blue-Chip Mopar:
1966 was the year Chrysler finally unleashed the legendary 426
Street Hemi onto America's streets to satisfy NASCAR homologation.
While the radical new fastback Charger was an instant styling hit,
very few buyers possessed the bank account or the nerve to spend an
extra $877 (nearly a third of the car's base price) to drop the
race-bred Hemi between the fenders.
Only 468 Hemi Chargers left the factory for the inaugural 1966
model year. More importantly, while 218 buyers optioned for the
TorqueFlite automatic, just 250 hardcore enthusiasts ordered the
bulletproof A833 4-speed manual.
This car is one of those legendary 250.
