    1966 Interior Door Lock Knob?

    I finally have time to go through the new 6th edition judging guide for 1966. Its excellent. Thank you to the team.

    I noticed that the description for the interior door lock knobs has changed from the 5th edition (a plain chrome knob). The 6th edition describes a knob I've always associated with the 1967 model year - e.g., it has the word "LOCK" molded in?

      Ron,
      Are you sure that the "plain chrome knob" isn't referring to the unlock knob?

              there are a few errors scattered through out the the new 66 JG, and you found one of them. Team Leader Bill Calorico has compiled a list of corrections that he will be providing to all Chapter judging chair persons in the near future if he hasn't already. Your 66 lock knob is one of them. The manuscript that was submitted for publishing actually had a comment in it about the unique 67 knob appearing in the last two weeks of 66 production, but somehow it got changed around and came out described as you see it. Here is how the correction should read : The interior door lock knob is chrome plated and has a raised horizontal center portion with fine ridges. It is located at the upper rear of the door panel. An opaque plastic bearing spacer is installed behind the knob.

                  Thank you Don for the clarification.

                  Also, I've been remiss in not thanking you, Bill, Dan Adie, Nick, and especially Tom Ames, for allowing me the opportunity to OJ at the Texas regional. An outstanding learning experience.

                          Don,
                          Is anyone going to publish or list the corrections to the new 66 JG for those of us who bought one? Would sure like to markup my copy with any known corrections.

                              Ed,

                              You should be able to get a copy from your chapter judging chairperson. Once he/she gets the list from Bill C.
