I have worked on several 1965 and 66 a/c cars and none of them had an extended timing plate.
Two car were original owner cars owners. I have one at the house right now.

Well '65 AC cars had them and I suspect '66 AC models did too.

You sure, Bob? My 66 A/C 140 didn't have anything special. It used a
standard 330 140 distributor (from the factory) and was no different than a
standard
140. 18 degrees initial advance, I believe. I remember hearing from Mark
that the 67 A/C cars had a special distributor advance that started at an
initial setting of something like 24 degrees. That would need a "plated"
rear
cover, like the turbos. But I don't remember the 65s or 66s having anything
special as a distributor in the A/C cars.

I can only speak from the two AC cars I did extensive work on; a '65 110 AC
Monza convertible and a ''66 110 AC Monza sport sedan and both had the
extender plate riveted on. I'm pretty sure I still have a spare from the '66 in
the "pile" somewhere. Sounds like the 140 didn't have the extender plate.
