Do both those options work simultaneously??

Heybuck - good question and here is what I have found. The order code for the "Electro Cruise and Fuel Warning" option was 442 (at a cost of $83.65). The 1966 Pontiac Accessory booklet shows that it was not possible to order both the Electro cruise option and the Safeguard Speedometer option (order code 441). Good eyes!! It has obviously been a while since I have had the car on the road.

The base price for the car was $3,404 - the total cost of the options was $2,321.77 or 68% of the MSRP - the car has pretty much all of the options available from Pontiac for 1966. Even has the long branch exhaust manifolds but I think that these were installed by the dealer after the car was ordered. The car was sold by Stone Pontiac and GMC in Morehead, Kentucky.

Stevep: I rechecked the speedo options available in 1966 on Pontiac B-body cars and here is what I found. If you did not want the basic speedo unit you had the following additional choices:

Code 448 was the "Custom Guage Cluster" which provided oil pressure and water temperature gauges.

Code 441 was the "Safeguard Speedometer [and Fuel Warning Light]" which allowed one to select a desired speed when buzzed the car exceeded the set speed.

Code 442 was the "Electro-Cruise System" which maintained a pre-set speed (also included a low-fuel level warning lamp on fuel gauge)".

Each of these speedo options was mutually exclusive and they could not be combined.

Electro Cruise equipped cars will work as cruise or as speedminder.
I have owned a few.
The owner's manual will tell you.
