1966 Toronado Deluxe - Autumn Bronze
Posted: Sat Dec 26, 2020 11:29 pm
This Toronado is equipped with most offered accessories Including:
Tilt & Trim steering wheel, corning lights, Push button trunk release, Power steering, brakes, windows and radio antenna, factory seat belts and AM/FM radio. No cruise controls. Has Comfortron A/C which is not working even though all AC parts have been rebuilt. Dual remote door mirrors. Chrome factory wheels.
Has the original Switch Pitch automatic transmission # 66-OJ-33250 and I was told the 425ci engine is original to the car. It runs and drives great after a complete rebuild of the original carb by “Sparkeys Carbs”. Best $500 I ever spent!
I purchased a new set of radial tires from Diamond Back Tires. They make a “Toronado” tire matching the original factory narrow W/W using BF Goodrich radials 255 x 70 R15, Widest which will fit in wheel wells without steering issues.
Other items attended to were:
1- Changed oil and filter.
2- Replaced both exhaust manifold to head gaskets.
3- Replaced rear light sockets and rewired rear brake lights and turn signals.
4- Replaced Distributor cap, condenser, points and plug wires.
5- Installed radiator overflow tank. Car never did and does not run hot.
6- Installed Chrome air filter and V/Covers. The very nice originals go with car.
7- R&R fuel sending unit from fuel tank and repair to function.
8- Switched transmission kick-down linkage from carb to throttle pedal (1968 style).
9- Replaced Alternator and voltage regulator.
10- Located and have all original factory service and chassis manuals to go with the car.
Sale price is $24,500. Please call me at (540) 642-6335 to discuss any questions about the car. (I am available from 12 noon to 12 midnight). I’ll be happy to tell you all I know both good and bad. This car will stop traffic wherever you go!!
This car is sold AS IS and WHERE IS and shipping is paid by the buyer. Payment is to be by Wire Transfer only. No checks of any kind. I have a clear, lien free Virginia title in my name to confer along with a full Bill of Sale.
