I got a 66'!

Good evening all, I just inherited my fathers 1966 Toronado and I'm pretty happy. He bought it from the original owner back in 1973 and now it's mine as he's downsizing as he gets older. I currently live in Nova Scotia, Canada. This was our family car back in the 70's and was stored every winter. It...

66' Headlamp dimmer switch

Good day all! I just got my 66' Toro and I noticed I have a bad headlight dimmer switch. It's preventing the low beam headlights from working.

Re: 1966 Olds Chassis Svc Manual / 1966 FISHER BODY Svc Manual

Re: 66 California Toro vacuum lines

I saw that one! Really cool that's you.....

I thought you said during the video that it wasn't a California car......guess i misheard you.

Looks almost identical to our toronado, same colour and everything except ours has AC.

Re: 1966 California Toronado vacuum line routing

Hey thanks for the quick reply. Good question. Did the 67 still use the 425? I would imagine it would be very similar if so.
