There is a small u shaped clip holding it on. Look between the panel and the window handle. You’ll probably see the small flared ends. You need to use a pick to spread the clamp and pop it off. Picture of the clips attached

You will get more replies if you pick better subjects. "1966 door panel" could mean anything. I added the word removal to summarize your post.

I have figured it out there is a clip for the crank vent window and the door handles screws heads were stripped. I got it.....

The tool Marc refers to is available at most real auto parts stores. it is relatively inexpensive. It is used to push the clips off the handle from the area under the handle. Tell the pats store guy what you need to do and he can find it for you and should be able to describe how the removal is done.
