    66 Charger Interior Installation Step by Step

    As I installed the interior of my 66 Charger, I wrote down step by step instructions. Hope this helps. Installing the interior? Wondering what the sequence is? Tips? I wrote the sequence down as I put the rear of the interior together. I think it's fairly accurate (from memory). It's long --...

    Repro Positive Battery Cable is so incorrect -- will they ever make one right?

    That's for a Hemi car. You can tell by how short the black lead is.

    Weather Stripping 66 Charger

    It's all fairly easy. Pick one to install and ask for advice if you need it.

    Repro Positive Battery Cable is so incorrect -- will they ever make one right?

    That won't fix the length issue. You'd have to cut the ends, shorten the length, find new terminals and crimp / solder connections.

    You've got that right. And -- the repros are too long.

    Repro Positive Battery Cable is so incorrect -- will they ever make one right?

    You would think they'd make the correct Positive Battery cable for 1966 Dodge Chargers and Coronets. But they don't. The leads at the battery should be red and black (not red and red), and the leads at the starter relay should be black and brown (not black and red). And, the repro cables...

    Very very nice. It's a shame they don't make the correct pos. battery cable for our cars. I bought one and it was way too long and the wrong colors. Coming off the battery should be one red one black. At the firewall should be one red one brown.

    The good thing about a Napa battery is they are smooth on all sides. Peel off the blue Napa stickers and you have a blank canvas. Order cheap Mopar battery stickers and caps online and walla --- you have an old group 27 red cap battery. Mopar Battery S27M red (1966-74) Push in Caps kit - WESKCAR

    Believe it or not, mine is a Napa Battery (it's not a cover). I just made it look like an original.

    It does have the screw on metal plate at the bottom. I looked it up and searched for it at Carlisle 12 years ago. Supposedly the same 26" shroud used on the 426 Hemi.

    Engine Compartment Details

    Restoring a 1966 Charger body and interior is hard enough. Getting engine compartment details can also be challenging. The engine compartment paint on this car is original and just touched up where needed. Note: the brown primer area behind the hood spring -- that's original -- and I've seen...

    A helpful guide to quarter window installation. 66/67 Chargers

    I agree --- someone should have a tool for this. It was the most difficult part of the install.

    1966 Charger Carpet Removal

    Sorry this took so long. I didn't get mass backing. It interferes with the rear carpet insulation. I added insulation myself.

    1966 Charger Carpet Removal

    I bought an ACC carpet kit (23 pieces). The color match for the Dark Olive Green was great. However, I didn't like the color vinyl they used so I ordered a different color. We replaced all the ACC vinyl and stitched in the new vinyl using the old carpet for templates.

    1966 Charger Carpet Removal

    I saved all the critical pieces of carpet during disassembly for templates -- like saving and bagging and tagging bolts/screws etc. The most difficult pieces are the carpets that glue to the rear passenger side panels. The tips of them go under the sill plate. Dodge also sewed Velcro into the...
