Malibu Francie? She seems to have the Francie smile. She would have come with a pink top and red shorts.

That's Malibu Francie. She came out in 1971. The reason for the 1966 date is that is the year the twist-n-turn waist was patented. A lot of Barbies will have the 1966 date on them even though the actual date may be years later. It gets confusing that way.
