West Coast Classics are proud to present an absolutely exceptional example of this obviously always beautifully well kept, garaged, cherished and recently restored rust free 1966 Dodge Charger 318 V8 4 2 Door Fastback Hardtop with a 3 Speed manual transmission and with 4 bucket seats with the rear seats folding flat for extra storage, retractable headlamps and power steering!
An obviously always garage kept example with the original floor boards, trunk and all the typical rust-prone areas completely solid and rust-free. There are no signs that the car has had any accidents of any kind - obviously an always cherished car since new! The car looks very impressive and reportedly recently underwent a complete restoration in its original factory color 'Mauve Poly' (Color code 66-1) paint with its original 'White' (Trim code P4W) color bucket seat interior with Black carpeting. The car has all it's original logos and came factory equipped with the three-speed manual transmission. The dashboard, the headliner, the carpets and all the seats and all the chromework are in exceptional condition and the car has factory correct wheels and tires.
The 318 V8 engine is extremely strong and powerful and sounds absolutely magnificent! This particular car literally drives beautifully - must be driven to be appreciated - drives straight as an arrow with no strange road wobbles, shakes or rattles - a truly remarkable daily driver that will give any modern day sports car a run for it's money! The transmission shifts smoothly through all the gears and the temperature always remains cool!
Based on the intermediate Coronet, the Charger created a sensation when it arrived in 1966. The dramatic fastback shape had flashy touches such as the hidden headlight grill and four bucket seat interior! Engines ranged from the 318 c.i. V8 unit to the 361 and 383 up to the 440 Magnum and the monster 425 bhp, 426 Hemi! This was Dodge's answer to the Plymouth Barracuda and the Ford Mustang, but on a much larger scale!
This is a rare opportunity to own a great daily driving, recently restored and obviously never abused example of a fully restored 1966 Dodge Charger! This highly desirable and collectible unabused example is one of the outstanding 'Mopar' designs of the sixties and most certainly one sure-fire investment that's bound to only appreciate over the years for any discerning classic American sixties muscle car collector or simply any muscle car enthusiast!
