You know? I never have even looked on this car??? I will have to look to be sure. Never had the back seat out. I doubt I have the B.S. for it though after all of these years. The car has been apart, repainted etc.

How many A66 owners cars are a JS23H0E (L.A. Cali) built cars? Mine is. Everyone I every see listed for sale or look at some where is always a JS23H0B (Hamtramck) built car.




I am sure you meant JH23H0?

I checked both registries, current counts are 208 known from Hamtramck so far & 67 are known from LA so far.

Two things to keep in mind, Hamtramck was a much larger plant than LA & LA did not produce E-bodies for the entire 1970 model year.

When did they begin production of the A66 cars? I am suprised that the 340 wasn't offered from the begining of the model year.

Ooops yes, I meant JH. I must have been combining my Challenger & Charger VIN's for some reason.

Cool! Now I know all Challenger fenders are this way. I am sure the trim delete, happened exactly like that; managers decreed no wheel trim on these darn 15" tired cars anymore.

As for the car, yup original sublime car, white vinyl top, white/black interior, 727 console shift, air conditioning, stripe delete unfortunately. 56k original miles, Cali. Car. Been in storage since 86.

The Hemi Fenders are rolled much more extensivly. I think that a good picture of the rolled lip on a hemi fender (without lip molding) would help remedy the situation. I have some, but they are bitmaps, so moparts wouldn't let me post them earlier. Unfortunately I don't have access to photoshop to convert them to jpeg at the moment.




OK, I've converted the bitmaps to jpegs and can post them now. I'm putting them on the Hemi Fender thread where it's more appropriate. If anyone's interested, here's a link to that thread... https://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/show...&PHPSESSID=

First two things I notice are black grille and wheel well trim . Neat car with build sheet and fender tag. Would like a better look at build sheet to see if the wwt are on it. Very late build date also.

I'm still confused.

Did ALL A66s had the R/T J54 hood, but only some were on the tag?

Or did some A66s actually have flat hoods on them per the missing J54 on the tag?

My 9-28-69 SPD A66 has a flat hood with (J45) hood pins and I like it. So I would say they did come with flat hoods. As talked about early on in this thread the early (first 2-3 months) cars that came with R/T hood did not have the J54 on the fender tag or maybe their flat hoods have been changed.

No connection to the seller, no idea if they're real (but they look real to me)

Cool!

Hard to see, but it looks like the part numbers are 34332LS & 34332RS.

Edit - Seller has 3443255 in the text, doh!

Great to have a number!
