Vehicle Description
This 1966 Plymouth Belvedere II has a fantastic presence, a
performance-built 383 V8, and the overall satisfaction of owning a
distinct and complete Mopar hardtop. Nowhere else is a total
package turnkey classic going to give you so much joy for this kind
of money.
Sure, Plymouth had blue in their color palette in '66, but nothing
was as standout as this. Instead, what you're looking at now is an
exceptionally solid investment in serious bold attitude. The light
evenly rolls between each panel so you can really see how nice the
sheetmetal is and how uniform the gaps are. It gives this hardtop a
memorable presence, and that's half the fun of classic car
ownership. And more than just the paint and panels, this one really
gets the details right, too. We know you love features like the
blue dot headlights, correct badging, and iconic American Racing
Torq Thrust alloys with a staggered tire size for a very aggressive
stance. And the way the way the full-length trim has the bold red
accent, you really know this is a quality muscle machine.
Inside, the seats, headliner, door panels, and carpeting have a
deep, dark, and fresh feeling that lets you know there was a solid
investment here. And more than just quality, you'll love it for the
appearance. The factory pattern on the bucket seats has enough
stitch work to look like a custom job, and the center console that
runs in-between is a work of art. The dash panel looks great with
all of its factory-correct element in place, but this one is also
has nicely integrated upgrades, too. For example, while the
original AM radio is still in place, the real tunes come from a
more modern AM/FM/CD stereo with aux input. Plus, the upgraded
three-spoke steering wheel and SunPro auxiliary gauge panel are
great performance upgrades to complement what's under the hood.
This was at the dawn of the muscle car era, and this one celebrates
it correctly. It was born a 383 cubic-inch V8 car, and so we're
happy to see a big block still in this coupe. It's presented nicely
with the painted inner fenders, Edelbrock valve covers, and an air
topper announcing the large displacement beneath it. And when you
look beyond the style, this one also has the performance substance
of a large Holley four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock hi-riser
intake, MSD ignition, and Hedman headers that add more power as
they also contribute to the rumble of the dual exhaust. Out on the
road you're going to feel plenty of power, but there's comfort
present, too. The power steering, three-speed automatic
transmission, and front disc brakes all contribute to an overall
easy cruising feeling in this muscle machine.
Complete with owner's manual, there are few classics that are just
get everything this correct. So whether you're a fan of Mopars or
just love high quality, you know this is the coupe for you.
