Saw that. I was tempted until I saw the E (LA built, almost no hope of a build sheet to obtain info for getting a remade fender tag). I'm wondering if the mileage is true. If it still had an intact fender tag, I could see maybe chasing that one. A66 sunroof car? That'd be a gem.

 :thinking: not a 18K mile car - not a factory sunroof car  :burnout:

That sunroof issue was my million dollar question as well.

The OEM sunroofs were installed by an outside contractor, in the Detroit area, so it doesn't make sense any Challenger optioned with sunroof would be built at any plant other than Hamtramck. Ship the car across town for the work not across the country!

W/o a FT or BS, then can't say if they were original options or not.

That sunroof is probably a non-OEM hack job.

All sunroof cars had vinyl tops.

Not seeing holes for the vinyl top trim.

seems really rough shape for only 18k miles. Even sitting outside a long time wouldn't account for the torn seat, missing carpet, etc.
would a 340 4-speed come with a flat hood? seems odd.

Ad says the front end was hit in the early 70's, had a 71 front end put on it, then parked in 75. The 71 front end probably came with the flat hood, although it looks like they did manage to find a 70 grill.

Really nice looking project. I would probably just AMD skin the roof and forget about it if the price was right. Flat hood is correct on an early A-66. I like the 3 pedals, rallye dash and overall condition.

Cooper Motors was our Chrysler Dealer in Hayward California. We had about a half dozen Doge and Plymouths bought and serviced there. Still remember Eddie was the Service Manager and helped me learn lots about Mopars back in 71-74. Love to have that Dealer frame on my Challenger!
