I was over a friends house and he wanted to sell his 65 Coronet 440 wagon.
Needs floors, rear wheel arches, hit on 1 back corner, floors rusted, smells very moldy...leopard skin door panels, was a SB, 3 spd. column car, now NO engine, 904 trans with hurst floor shifter. 8.75 rear (741??) probably open.

No title. He's said he wants $`1500. YIKES! I was thinking $400!

He's on the cronick big time. I don't know if it's worth 400.00. If you're going to restore it is not worth a whole lot when done unless it was a hemi car or a 4spd. My 2 cents.

The complete grill was perfect, the 8.75 was usable, so were some of the parts.
I was disappointed to say the least....

What? No pics of the leopard-print door panels? Those alone raise the value,what,about two bucks;maybe three? Those are his bargaining chips...

I think '65s did come with a 741 rear;if I'm wrong(or mistaken;not sure which),the more knowledgeable here will inform you. And me...

The only way to assess their true value is to put them on Evilbay.


...or take 'em to some big auction in Scottsdale,Arizona...

You could try giving him a cheque.......with the decimal point moved one space to the left.

EVerything is fixable....but the hardest thing to correct in NJ is "no title".

Not worth $1500! maybe a couple of hundred is all.A parts car is all you'd have

It's pretty much worth what you're willing to pay. Pics are really required here though. I bought a '65 Coronet wagon a few years back with a descent more door parts car for $1200.00 and I felt o.k. with that. It had a pretty descent body but the usual destroyed interior. I ended up trading a buddy straight across for my '64.

What are your intentions with this car? If your looking to build a trailer queen (I know your not) then this probably is a bad place to start. It might be a good candidate for a daily driver though.

The more B-body wagons back on the road the better if you ask me.
