Cool. Glad you decided to keep it original. The A66 cars were the only non R/T cars to have the bumblbee stripe or so said the literature that Barry posted a couple of weeks ago. Very cool. Good luck with it  :2thumbs:

Here's a link to the 1970 Challenger brochure from stockmopar.com mentioning the A66 code:

http://www.stockmopar.com/_images/brochures/1970-dodge-challenger-dealer-brochure/original/1970-dodge-challenger-dealer-brochure-11.jpg
1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.

 Thanks for the brouchere Super Blue 72. I appears you could get a 340 without the A66 code.  :clueless:

 The A66 was a "340 only" performance package, what I call a poor man's T/A. :lol2:

I'm glad you decided to keep it OEM. Those A66 cars are a rare and always great to see option on Challengers. I'm sure not many still exist any longer so it would be a shame to mess it up in any way..   :2cents:
