1965 Dodge Coronet

[Bigtime]

Hello!
My name is Steve and I live in Virginia. I am [soon to be] 68 years young. This is my first post. I current own a 1965 Dodge Coronet 500 that I recently purchased in late June, having sold my '69 Roadrunner [numbers matching car] which was more of a show car than a driver. The Dodge is a driver. It is in excellent condition and is something I can tinker with. I am going to have a ton of questions and will be looking to the FBBO group for help. I am glad I found you folks! I was a dyed-in-the-wool Chevrolet fan for years....but....NOTHING RUNS LIKE A MOPAR!

Hey Steve -
Welcome to FBBO!
Although I'm a diehard A-body fan, the '65 Coronet is one of my favorite B-body styles. Post up some pics when you get a chance.

Partner, you live in a beautiful part of the country! I have visited and love it. A question....where do I post a question regarding big, tall tires for the back of this 'ole heap?

Welcome from West Virginia. If that's your garage, I'm jealous!

Welcome to the site! Love those 65s!

Thanks so much! I loved my '69 RR but it was really too perfect to drive. A worry to a degree. Now I have a non-matching #'s car with a rebuilt 383 and 727 and can "hot rod" it to a degree! Whoopee! I feel like I am 17 again! Standby....I am gonna have a TON of questions!

Ha! No that's not my garage. I bough the car from a dealer in Morganton, NC....it's his garage. If that were my garage you can bet I would have it cluttered with car parts in no time! Thanks for the welcome!
