Perfect! This is the answer I was really looking for. 100% agree. Engine - I'll look for the date stamp on the passenger side of the block. If it's prior to 19 May 66 (for my car) I'll say it's original. Transmission - nothing to look for. The build sheet, VIN tag, IBM build card, and fender...

Hey guys, For 1966, is it true that if you have a 66 Dodge or Plymouth and are trying to see if the engine and trans are the same ones that came with the vehicle originally, you won't find a number matching on the engine block, trans housing, and VIN? I've looked through the threads trying to...

Update on progress. Horrible looking tape job after stripping paint off parts of the grill that are supposed to be exposed on a 500. Shot the inside of turn signals with reflective silver. Then shot the front with trim black, and the end result. Not a big job or a big deal but it now looks like...

MOPAR aficionados here will spot lots of era errors in my 1966 Coronet 500 engine bay but, it’s as good as my checkbook says it needs to be.

My man… This is why forums like this are great. I was looking at it and it seemed right and at the same time it seemed a little off, but I couldn’t put my finger on it. You’re right, it’s satin. Just ordered SEM 39143 Thanks all!

Got tired of my 66 Coronet 500 not having the two unpainted stripes across the grill like it should so…Ive stripped the black paint off in the applicable areas and want to reshoot the black areas with as close to correct as possible. I think I saw either here in B Bodies (don’t find it...

Thanks. If you have them can you take fairly close up photos of them? Preferably front and back. Thanks!

Thanks for speaking up and especially for the great photos. I understand much clearer now what they really look like and how the hoses attach. Looks like two small holes get drilled to the bottom of the dash and the two bolts secure them. Thanks!

This is a developing project but the current thought is that everything in the AC system will be aftermarket except the four vents inside. Yes, under the hood would look nothing like stock and I’m okay with that. Inside would look very 1966 except that the switch’s wouldn’t be accurate. Fan off...

I’m looking to add AC to my 1966 Coronet and need to acquire the four AC vents: the two under dash and the two inner dash vents. Anybody got any they want to sell?

Come on down!! Would love to have someone to go rumble around the hood with. Extremely quiet down here. Big retirement community here so everywhere I go people in their 60s and older are happy to come up and see the car. It reminds them of their youth.

Just as a follow up to this thread from last month, I went with Daniel Stern ([email protected]) and got a great product. It’s built exactly like the “original switch?” and has been working beautifully.

Great question! “If” you have a VIN, an approximate time and location of sale for a car you’ve owned in the past, how do you go about finding where it is today? I’m curious as I am in the same boat with a 1970 440 Six Pack, Dodge Challenger R/T. I have the VIN and I sold it in San Diego in 1984...

Went through and got rid of a bunch of little things that didn’t work: turn signals (both dash turn lights and the left side of the switch in the steering wheel),low oil pressure light, parking brake light, console light for the transmission, fuel level gage, etc. Nice having all the little...

Yeah, that was never a thought! I actually have a different thread basically asking “what’s wrong with this picture?” so getting info like this here is fine and dandy. This thread was trying to decode exactly what the fender tag and VIN are saying. Many thanks for calling out what you see as...

Perfect! That’s what I was trying to find. I wasn’t buying the green color as being correct. It’s relatively freshly done so I don’t have any plans to attack it to correct it but, if my investments can come back around and I get a burr up my butt for correctness I understand now what correct is...

Okay, so I’m back at it. Yes, the fronts rub only on the chrome trim but I can pull the crank away from it (for the most part) as I crank it over the trim. Less than ideal. Yes, there are very thin black plastic washers but don’t know that they actually do anything to help. Curious if I can...

I’m out and about. Will check later to see.

Excellent. That’s what I was wondering. And yes, that’s backwards to me.

You’re very astute. They do rub… Now I have another mystery to solve:bananadance:
