Found an A66 tag that was posted on a Mopar site (tag only) in October, 2011.
Poster mentioned the car was shipped to Europe. JH23 H0E 114720. Car was an October 23 build w an automatic in FK5 with the rare H6K4 cloth vinyl interior and V9k stripe.
Came with the light group A01, the basic radio group A04 and the A63 molding group/M31 belt molding.
Also had power brakes, a 6 way seat, rear defog, and a luggage rack.
Must have been a stunning A66.

I kept tabs on this A66 Challenger convertible that was for sale on Fast Lane back in May of 2011. Nice, loaded A66 vert, automatic with ps, pb, pw, 6 way seat and factory AC. Car also has hood pins, rim blow wheel and is in FK5/black. Car was sold somewhere down the line. I have it originally listed on Mid American auction and sold in March, 2010. I do have a file on it as JH23 H0B 171654. Anyone know of this car?

Love the burnt orange color on Challengers and Chargers

Interesting data on A66 serial numbers and production plants from the A66 Challenger Registry;

Here is some data; What is interesting are the date codes in relation to serial numbers and order numbers against specific plant production.

The earliest SPD in the A66 Registry is an HOE car with a 9/29 date and SN starting with 108.
(Keep in mind that the A66 package was a late production decision and they did not become "formally" available until mid October 1969.)
The earliest A66 HOB car is dated 9/22 w a SN starting with 130, with heavy Hamtramck production in October, November and December.

Early serial numbers 108 though about 129 was all HOE (as per the A66 cars in Registry) September through December.

On the later end of A66 Production (as per the Registry);

The latest listed HOE hardtop is dated May, 1970 (door sticker only) w a SN starting with 143. No A66 verts were ever made or listed for H0E.
The last H0B hardtop listed is dated 708 w a SN starting with 421. The latest listed H0B vert is dated 622 with a SN starting with 390.

Color Percentages of EW1 A66 Challengers listed in the A66 Registry; A member of the forum wanted to know how many A66 Challengers were in the A66 Registry that are EW1 white; As per the Registry; There are a total of 6 original EW1 A66 Challenger hardtops in the A66 Registry. 1 with a blue interior, 2 black, and one red. (2 unknown color interiors) 4.2% of all JH23 V-8 Challengers (includes 318 and 340 cars) were EW1. If you take 4.2% of 340 Challenger production of 6399; there would be a total of 291 A66 Challengers produced in this color, as a rough estimation.
