Does anyone know if there are repro consoles for a 1966 dodge dart convertible three speed auto on the floor car???
Thanks.
Thanks.
It seems to me that someone repopped the front 4 speed plate but I don't remember seeing any automatic ones. As long as you're not looking for a mint console, I see used ones all the time in the classifieds here and on E-bay.Does anyone know if there are repro consoles for a 1966 dodge dart convertible three speed auto on the floor car???

'66-8 are the same. The '69-76 consoles will work also but don't have the groove running down the center of the upper plates.I know that console's stayed the same for a couple years. 66 was the first year for that console.
Thanks ToolmanMike,I owe some thanks to you for getting me interested in the Early-A Darts and also FABO.You've done such a great job with her Scott. She really scats! Nice shot with her fronts up in the air. tmm
The damage is all replaceable parts. I can't find any sway in the underhood. There is no damage to the core support or inner fenders.Looks like fun to me! Nice score. except for the front end damage, it looks like it's in pretty good shape. That aftermarket heater is pretty cool. Thanks for posting and keep us informed on your progress. tmm
don't remember if any one answered your question but the 66 console (automatic base) is the same as the 67 68 for sure. I think the top plate has a stripe running through it in one (66) year and not in the later years or I've got it backwards "AGAIN". I used the 68 top plate on my other 66 because the woodgrain was gone and it just looked smoother than the crusty 66 one had. but it's basically the same part function wise.Does anyone know if there are repro consoles for a 1966 dodge dart convertible three speed auto on the floor car???

Here's a photo for Kurt who just PM'd me. He was asking about the red paint or coating on the 66 Dart GT taillight panel. Anyone know what it was originially?
It looks transparent like it is candy apple or anodized. tmm
I just picked up a 66 gt blue with a white vynal top, 273 carter 4bbl red engine with black and chrome valve covers its an auto car and has 2.5 inch single exhaust. The car has disc breaks and a square vacuum box that sits on the inner fender. Does anyone know what type of dart this is? I haven't been able to find another 66 dart with the vacuum box. any info would be great thanks.
That box is the vacuum reservoir for the funky Kelsey Hayes brake booster that year. Sounds like a well optioned Dart GT.I just picked up a 66 gt blue with a white vynal top, 273 carter 4bbl red engine with black and chrome valve covers its an auto car and has 2.5 inch single exhaust.
