    Does anyone else remember which movie this car was featured in? The villain called it the "High Toned SOB".

      Yep, the black on black makes this look super sinister.

    Great find - my Family had one in FL in '66 - it was about the Journey, not the Destination - well done!

      Yep they're very uncommon to see, much less in running condition.

    This was a great video. You must live in Houston. I saw you drive by my neighborhood at the beginning of this video here in Houston. I recognized everything. I was glad to hear you got parts for your 1990 Toronado as well. I am still looking for a 1991-1992 Toronado myself a non Trofeo model. Nothing has come up yet. I thank you for sharing this journey and the drive. Congrats on the purchase of the 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado. You will get it running and looking great too.

      Hey buddy, thanks for the feedback. Glad you enjoyed it. I'll keep my eyes open for a non-Trofeo Toro for you. More updates on the Toronados soon👍

      Yep, and Cadi borrowed the power train setup from Oldsmobile and substituted their engine in place of the Olds 425/455. Happy Easter to you as well.

      My wife and kids call me the great enabler for all my car buddies. Where's the fun in life if you can't involve like-minded people in your insanity😁.

      It possible. It's been so long since they used that terminology to describe these awesome cars I may have got the words mixed up in my head.

    I hate those windmills we have some about an hour from where I live it looks like something out of a science fiction movie used to be nice farmland I think it sucks

      Yea, they're cool to look Ata for about the first few miles, then they just junk up the landscape.

    Not even a tiny speck of rust?? 🤏

    • @VetteSource

      Nope, this is one of the cleanest mid 60's cars I've run across. It didn't hurt that it has been inside a concrete garage since 1976.
