Coupes were by far the most popular, with over 422,000 copies sold. Convertibles were next, selling over 56,000. Last, were the fastbacks, with slightly less than 28,000 sold. This makes the fastbacks highly sought after by collectors. The AM/FM mono radio was available as an option for the first time in 1966. Optional under the hood for 1966 was a long duration solid-lifter camshaft and 1" thick vibration damper that eliminated the need for a vacuum unit on the distributor and increased the horsepower of the base 289 V-8. GT models got engine improvements from Carrol Shelby, a new gas cap, driving lamps and racing stripes.* *ClassicMustang.com, "1966 Mustangs Information", DynamicMotorSports.com, https://classicmustang.com/1966-mustang-information/.
