A curious offering

Is the interior original?  Is that the original carburetor, radiator on the intake?   Why are the lights missing?  James

Carb looks to be a Rochester 4GC which would be one of two correct carbs for that year.  Radiator looks to be an aluminum replacement.

I didn't even know that was a thing, a Fleetwood coupe? I'll have to look that up. There was never a 60s Fleetwood coupe from what I remember.

Bryan,   The seller is mistaken--- it's not a FLeetwood--- I think there were several years in the late 80's and early 90's when a two door Fleetwood was available.  I also noticed that this car has no a/c. It appears someone was in the process of a restoration and stopped.... If the interior is original, it appears to be in very good condition.  Having owned a '65, the engines were not in great condition once they reach 100,000 miles--   Wondering if this one is, in fact, a very much mishandled 47k example, and if that's the case, it might be worthy of someone's interest.   As I mentioned, it's located relatively close by so we're available to take on an initial inspection if there's interest.     James

"if you want to go look at it you can see it out on my sister's lawn next to Husseys general store in Windsor."

Love it!

The seats and the door panels leave no doubt that this is a 1966 Calais coupe. The Calais had its own setup for the power window switches on the doors. I think it was shared with Buick. The dash has the vent levers in the center under the radio where the center A/C vent would normally be, So this is a non-A/C car.

Those seats look to be in amazingly good condition, especially considering the sorry state of the car. I believe that this is a low mileage car that had a really miserable life.
