Toronado Information:

The 1966 Toronado's styling was based on a drawing completed in 1962 by David North titled "Flame Red Car. " North was an Oldsmobile stylist who didn't have anything specific in mind when he drew it. and the work languished in the design studio files for a time. but when approval from GM came to build a personal luxury car for 1966. Oldsmobile executives began asking for design suggestions. and Flame Red Car got the nod for further design work. and eventually became the 1966 Toronado.

The 1966 Toronado is notable in that it was the first General Motors Corporation vehicle to use a subframe. which ended just in front of the rear suspension. This subframe provided the mounting points for the engine and transmission. the front suspension and steering. and the interior floor pan. This design isolated these components from the body which reduced the transference of noise. vibration. and harshness.

The Toronado offered a long list of standard features which included the 425 Super Rocket V-8 engine. Turbo Hydra-Matic drive. power steering. power brakes. deep pile carpeting. heater and defroster. ashtrays with individual lighters. padded sun visors. padded instrument panel. back-up lights. interior courtesy lights. Guard-Beam frame. drum-type speedometer. and dual-outlet exhaust system.
