68 Coronet Build

DHD · Feb 8, 2013

I bought this car back in September, it was a complete running slant six, 3 speed car that was last plated in Missouri 1986. The car came with new quarters, trunkfloor, not installed, as well as a good used right rear frame rail which it definately needed

Cool!

Both front rails were worse than I thought once I started poking at them. I found a 70 Coronet parts car with decent front rails, I also stripped off anything else I thought I could use or sell/trade for other parts

My plans call for a 5.9 Magnum so the Slant6 has gotta go, thankfully I found a new home for it locally as it was a very good running motor

Time for the new/used rails!

I started this back in October, I'm just going through my pics and will soon be catching up to where I am at now. I haven't actually done all this work in one week:toothy12:, right now I have the motor/trans in for mock up and working on the wiring harness, I'm hoping to test fire sometime this week

Way to go, love seeing someone not scared away by a little or allot of rust. Good luck

Floor pans

fitting the A518, didn't have to modify the floor but I did have to take a bit out of the floor brace. I will box it again once I am done

Fabbing the new crossmember, still have to drill out two more holes
