1970 A66 convertible in storage since 1984
NOS fender added to driver's side back in the 80's
Driver's side quarter to be reworked due to poor body work
Bottom of quarter panel driver's side will need lower patch.
Hood Photo shows 340 decals used on early A66 cars (build date early October 1969)
Original door panels with bottom rugs and reflectors are in good condition, not dry rotted.
Engine can be turned with breaker bar, has not been run since 2000.
Car still has original points non electronic ignition
 
Very cool. My first car back in 1978 was an A66 Challenger convertible in FC7. My car had an SPD in March. I also owned an A66 hardtop in EV2. It had the hood decals. Don't forget to check to make sure they transfered the plastic splash guard to that new fender. I threw two of them out because people didn't do that back in the day. The dirt would get up there and rot the upper front.
 
jeff968,
Thank you for your thoughts. I like the A-66 cars because I always liked the high winding small block 340. It creates a more balanced car in the handling department. You raise a good point; I need the splash shield, the original one was left on the original fender. I will now need to find that part.
