Wow, someone will be lucky/pleased to own that one!

 

Nice. Valve covers indicate ram air but how can it function with full under-hood insulation? Was ram air an option yet in 66?

 

My favorite color is original paint.

 

Hmmmm....first 66 GTO I've ever seen with "gills" on the leading edge of the front fender

 

Me too! I guess the original owner liked them and installed them himself soon after purchase. To each his own I suppose.

 

A true ram air car factory built would be a 4M with 433's out back. The block code would be XS.

 

Heck,Nick... the '66 Lemans came stock with these gills... from the factory, no less!

 

From the for sale ad:

The seller add that when the car was one month old his father accessorized and customized with the following touches: faux front fender vents from the Le Mans; chrome headlight covers; red vinyl pinstriping over the standard painted black pinstripe and on the louvered taillights; a hood-mounted bug deflector; curb feelers; and red fender liners.
