Very Interesting thread considering I just bought my first A66 Car
Triple Black Original Paint Sold new in CA
Solid great driving Car
Some additional information on car
LA Built Door sticker says 10/69 Came with 15 inch Wheels
Fender Tag R11 V1X V9W 26 END M25 M31 N41 N42 N95 C55 G31 G33 J25 J45 M21 V1X A01 A04 A63 A66 C16 TX9 H6X9 000 A03 040164 E55 D32 JH23 HOE 109679
Numbers Matching Engine Trans was a warranty replacement (I have the dealer paper work showing the warranty work in 1971. Owner had to pay $25 deductible)
Nice chrome options.
The paint is still very nice with some low spots, door nicks have been touched up.
I have not looked for a BS yet, the previous owner never looked for it. I doubt its there since its an LA car, but you never know.

Stripe color first, then masked & body color.
Matt, I think your stripe code is actually V9W.
Your right, I fixed it
Thanks Matt

Good luck with the the A66 Challenger. Looks really great in black. Black is a relatively rare color on a Challenger. Did the tire size sticker indicate the E 60 - 15 inch wheels for such an early car? Is it an automatic or stick and does it have the rally dash? It also looks like it has the metal 340 call outs? Enjoy the new toy!

I will attach some close ups of the rear of the car/stripe per request.

Previous owner of my A66 put the SE finish panel on mine too. While it might look good it wasn't correct so I posted an ad here & it sold within a week. It was an NOS piece when installed IIRC. If you happen to do the same, large diameter PVC pipe. Mine was sewer ( clean) pipe. I had to buy a full length piece & it was like $40 but well worth it. Really nice color combo.

Is the rear finish panel not correct in argent? Was that trim package available as a option? Maybe A63? I will admit I am not up to speed on Challengers
This is an original paint car, but it certainly could have been switched out at some point.
Thanks Matt

Neat car, one thing that sticks out is the 340 metal emblems on hood. Seems a little early for them with your cars SPD. Would be curious if it had the original no crunch zone hood as it should for the early build date, if so maybe the emblems were added at later date.
I am trying to learn all I can on these cars. Let me know what you need to see on the hood and I will shoot a few photos and post them up.
