1966 Dodge D/Dart ~ 'Mystery, Myth and Misconception'

For the 1966 Production Year.

A 1966 D/Dart was not on the table at Product Planning or the Special Car Division in August 1965.

Chrysler was still planning to build a 1966 426 Hemi 'Super/Stock Package' again for the B-Body.

But delays and problems on the Plant Line, ended up cancelling the '426 Hemi' Super/Stock Package
in early February 1966.

By February 25, 1966 - the Special Car Division decided to go forth with a 'limited production' special
273 Engine in the 1966 Dodge Dart GT called the 'D/Dart'.

The Dart would be prepared by the Factory, and was to be equipped with few performance bolt-ons.
