Thank you all for your great responses! Yesterday we ended up swapping the driveshaft from my father’s 71 RR. Back on the highway and the vibration was still there, but did seem to improve it some. It vibrated from 63-68 MPH but seemed to get better at 70 and above. If at 70 and putting into...

Originally it was bottomed out completely for some reason. We removed the driveshaft, shortened by 1” and reinstalled with new u joints. It now sits about 1” from bottoming out and has room for movement.

That was my immediate thought when seeing the car as well. I honestly don’t love the side scoops at all and prefer them without, but with mine already having them, my plan is to paint them body color eventually.

that is the reaction from the majority of folks seeing it for the first time.

Hey everyone, New to the site and new to B Bodies. Just acquired a 1969 Coronet R/T and looking forward to working on the car and interacting with you all. Car was a California car its entire life until about 3 years ago when it was sold to a new owner in Ohio. Fast forward to 2025 and I’ve...
