I figured since most of the restoration guys do not frequent the race section here are a few pictures of the 66 Hemi car that is at Bob George's shop. There are more on that thread in the race section. Anyhow, after a good struggle we got the back seat out. Here is the sheet.

Here are a few items that were under the seat on the floor. Assembly line workers must have had fumbleitis.

A cool package that was in the glove box. In case your state required a front plate. It has the two screws, two plastic bumper nut inserts, and the rubber bumper.

Nice assembly line improv. The best guess I have the spot welder missed finishing the job and it had to be finished by Mig down the line. Nice work. I guess for proper restoration work I have a new skill to learn.

More restoration technique tweaking needed in the paint booth. I just need to remember how to run paint.

When was the last time you saw one of these. The bolt shim plate for the lower pulley. Been decades for me.

The electrical bracket and a Sun Tach Transmitter that was added a week after the car came home.

Finally a cool note Jim wrote to the dealer that all was OK with the car except they needed to remove the 426 Hemi plaques from the fenders and the 426 hood ornament. Thanks to Bob for his hospitality and to Jim for letting me scour over his car and take pictures and make notes. He is a real good guy and told some great stories about the times they had together. Hopefully next summer they will be able to add several more chapters to that book. I have more pictures if anyone is interested in any place in particular and I will be going back as my camera battery died while there.

One more thing. The red X on the trans. I did a 1700 mile 66 Coronet and it had the same red X on the trans. Possibly to denote Hemi/HD trans on the line?

The points were on the floor under the seat. I can see the nuts and the trim clips but the points puzzle me.

Should be left as it is for proper restoration, you have the pictures of the original to prove it.

Looking at the build sheet it came with a standard alternator - was there anything special about 66-67 alternators on a Hemi?
Checked my notes....The standard alternators on 66, 67 and some early 68's was the standard single pulley 537 - used on almost everything back then.
