The 1960 Dodge Matador, a rare single-year model, is a classic boulevard cruiser that encapsulates the essence of vintage Americana. Draped in a captivating navy blue metallic paint, this particular Matador showcases a striking gold roof that adds a touch of elegance to its already impressive presence. Matador logos adorn the body, serving as a subtle reminder of this car's unique identity. Rolling on a set of 14" wheels wrapped in 215/75R14 tires, the Matador effortlessly glides down the road, its chrome bumpers and trim gleaming in the sun.
Slide into the silver vinyl and cloth bench seats, and you'll find yourself transported to a world of vintage cool. The two-tone interior, with its higher back for the driver, is a delightful mix of comfort and style. The carpet, door cards, and headliner are all in very good condition speaks to the car's well-loved history. The painted metal sections and original gauges add to the authentic feel, while the push-button transmission and climate controls are just plain fun to use. And let's not forget the original steering wheel, it's like shaking hands with a piece of automotive history.
Under the hood you'll find a 361 V8 engine with a two-barrel carburetor, ready to rumble. This Super Red Ram big block has been painted silver, with a three-speed Torqueflite transmission that was just recently rebuilt, and an 8 3/4" rear end with 2.93 gears, this Matador is built for cruising. The drums on all four corners and the single exhaust with an aftermarket muffler add to the classic vibe, while the newer radiator, hoses, distributor, power steering unit, and pulleys ensure that this beauty runs as good as it looks.
