I saw head rests in an Olds mounted that way. I thought it was an add on thing. After seeing this car it makes me curious if it could have been an option.
Nice old barge, almost identically equipped to my fathers other than the exterior colour. These were probably the most common 66;s you'd see back in the day
My dads 66 had headrests added like that. They were aftermarket if I remember correctly. The factory ones didn't get ordered too often. Actually now that I think about it factory headrest probably weren't available on the bench seat. More than likely if you wanted them in this car you would have had to order the strato bench.

If I had the ambition and if I wasn't having to live with a very suspicious wife I would pick the thing up and unite it with a 66 396 engine I have hanging around in a rusty 66 hardtop
It would make a really nice, just powerful enough, cruiser with a stock 396 and TH 400 out of the hardtop. (or a powerglide for that matter) Those 283's worked valiantly but tended to have to huff and puff pretty hard to pull those barges around.
