You are correct, There was no RO/WO designated package in 66 although there was advertising mentioning hood scoop, battery in trunk, radio/heater and sound deadener delete, was never available to general public as such. Sales man was trying to order package that wasn't really available. Also would have been hard to deliver 67 RO 23 car in November of 66 since they weren't built until February of 67
