No. But Joseph Kwapich's does. This is his:

It's an odd car picked up a factory and seems to have whitewall tires. See the yellow "W"

1966 cars did not have 4-flashers. Intro'd in 1967 as part of increased safety package. 1967 cars also have larger diameter collapsible steering column.

I think I can live with that

Its kinda bugged me it wasnt there , until today


Rumor is they ran out of blue lines and substituted whitewalls in their place.

Thats my story and Im sticking to it

I can say for sure no,, but, in Canada. I thought they may have been mandatory at that time in NY, Cali etc. But not everywhere.
We've had lots of 66 Chargers, majority no 4ways
 
Per my IBM card.
Mine had flashers OE installed.
April 5 , 1966 SBD

After. Note the "Prices reflect the 3/16/66 Federal Excise Tax..." listed at the top of the price rundown.

Couldn't read it, but found it because of the / / . My magnifier gets to fuzzy.
 
Replacing gaskets or a simple cleaning could erase marks.....just saying.....
 
Interesting, those 2 cars (64BEL and gtx6970) were within $4 of each other. Some differences in options (radio, undercoating and sport wheel, one auto and the other 4 speed).
