I'm assuming your 1966 is not an F250 4WD or F350.

Correct: C4TZ-9940700-A .. Styleside Tailgate = 1964/66 F100/250 2WD & 1966 F100 4WD

Looks slightly different: C7TZ-9940700-A .. Styleside Tailgate = 1967/72 F100/350.

All the mounting hardware is the same as the C4TZ tailgate

Its a 66 F100 2wd. So the 67-72 tailgate will work also?

Number dummy is correct on the part numbers for the tailgate. On an interesting note a friend from 20 years ago was knee deep into 1966 trucks and had a factory sales brochure. I pointed out a picture of a 1967 style side tailgate on a 1966 truck.

For the ultimate in barn find tailgates, check out my thread about my Ranger truck here, if you haven't already seen it. I thought it would be a nice tailgate, but it's MINT as my buddy says.
