I have a 66 Charger, and the DODGE letters on the hood are missing - did they use the same letters on the Coronet, Polara, Monaco and Charger?

Ghoste

The Coronet ones are the same as the Charger ones.  Not sure about the other two.

66 and 67 are different.  66 Coronet is same as 66 Charger.  67 Coronet same as 67 Charger but the 2 years are different.
You can see here what they are supposed to look like.

thank you for your responses!
I purchased a set of raised 1966 letters that stated they were from a Polara or a Coronet for 1966 and I think that they might be the same as for the Charger, but I am still waiting to see them in my mail box.

Part numbers are different.  I'd be interested to see if they are the same.
Polara 2579655 (2) and 656 -657 -658
Charger 2579781 -782 -783 -784 -785  don't forget the center "D" is on a crease in the hood.  It'll be different.
Don't forget to post pics.

I would be interested in purchasing if my hood letters are not correct - my car is at the mechanics right now getting some stuff done and when I get it back I will see if the letters I just purchased fit. I am worried about the middle D though after another members response. I don't need show quality, just decent quality it looks so bare without the word DODGE on the hood of my car.

Dang...so the letters I have all have 26XXXXX

D - 2603883

Polara deck lid.  If you have all 5 you should have (2) 883 and 884 - 885 - 886.
pg 23-118 and 9 of 66 parts book.
