Hello Danny,

Galen Govier says that there were a total of 339 1966 Hemi Coronet 500 2 door hardtops produced, 205 with 4 speed transmissions and 135 with automatic transmissions. The REALLY rare 1966 Hemi Coronets were the 3, maybe 4 four door cars. One in White, one in Red, one in Gold and possibly one in Blue. The Red and Gold cars are automatics for sure and I believe that the White one is as well, but the elusive Blue one is said to be a 4 speed.

The Red car is well documented and I've seen pictures of the White one and the Gold one is now owned by Mike Ross who owns BE&A Restoration Parts in Ohio. I'd absolutely love to see the Blue 4 speed car if it's out there somewhere!

The Red Car.













And Mike's Gold car as it looked when he purchased it a few years ago.

The white one is in the Garltis museum in Florida. That was the car that inspired me to create a copy with my 4-door and hemi drivetrain and hence the name of my handle on this site. Car is coming along, slowly but surely.

Yes sir, here's an article on the Don Garlits White car.

Another interesting bit of information regarding the 1966 Hemi 4 door Coronets. A bit vague, but it does say that 4 of these cars were produced and that the elusive 4th car was exported to Finland. Maybe this is the Blue 4 speed car?
