Another inquiry about how many FK5 A66 Challengers are in the Registry; Currently, there is a total of 25 FK5 A66 Challengers in the Registry. 17 automatics, 6 4 speeds, and 1 D13 3sp. Interestingly, 14 of these A66's have the H6K4 interiors. 9 have the black X9, 1 with white and 1 with the vinyl/cloth H6K4.
This is out of a total of 235 A66 Challengers in the Registry (with and full or partial data).
Again FK5 was 10.1% of ALL JH23 V-8 production and 9.5% of all JH27 V-8 production. Take the total color percentages for what they are worth!

Another notable data fact from the A66 Challenger Registry; It is rare for any V8 Challengers to have come from the factory with a 3 speed manual trans. A66 Challengers w a 3 speed are even more rare.

In the A66 Registry, we have only 6 total.
4 hardtops
and 2 verts.
Total production of 3sp A66 cars were; 343 HT's and only 20 verts.

Date Code Sleuthing; The question comes up frequently of when was my car built?, often in the absence of a data/door plate or sticker.

When I disassembled my A66 vert, I checked for date codes on parts. It gave me a window of assembly for my Scheduled Production Date of A06 (Sept 6th, 1969) build. Please note the following; water pump 8/5/69, 8/23 radiator, 9/9 lft rear window, 9/17 collapse spare, 9/24 rt brake caliper bracket, 9/29 brake balance bar, 10/1 rt lower control arm, 10/9 brake caliper bracket, 10/11 JP Stevens rug sticker, 10/20 K frame, 10/20 radio speaker and 10/22 carrier stenciled date code still on car. This date range on a car with the A06 SPD. Looking for the date codes is a great way to determine a production window for your car. Even better if you have a tag, and or build sheet.

Congratulations to Tom V who is the new owner of an A66 4 speed project car.

A66 Statistical Information from the A66 Challenger Registry; Bryon H. raised the question of how many A66 cars came with the Rallye Dash option. Specific to our A66 Registry; out of a total of 227 A66 cars in the A66 Registry with full or partial information, 63 A66 cars have the Rallye dash. Not included in the count are 3 A66 Challengers where owners added the Rallye dash. That translates into 27.7% of A66 Challengers in our Registry have the Rallye dash option

A66 Registry Statistics as of June 2023;

Just some A66 Registry Statistics; In responding to Justin's inquiry regarding A66 Challenger verts with AC in the A66 Registry; I went through the files in our Registry. There are 46 A66 convertibles listed in our Registry with full or partial data recorded. From the 46 verts in the A66 Registry, there are only 9 A66 verts with AC. Justin's car is one of them. Additionally, only 8 A66 verts in Registry came with automatic transmissions and AC. Only 6 A66 Challenger verts in the Registry came with an automatic, a rallye dash and AC.​
