Yes. The WS23 tells us it's a Coronet R/T hardtop.

If I could tell what the lower numbers are I would love to. I need the practice
 
I think $22000 is more than a fair price. But you've obviously seen the car in person so you would know better. Barring any huge defects and If a true r/t, I think what he's asking is fair.
 
I came up with: Dodge Coronet R/T 2 Door Hardtop, 440 cid 4-bbl HP V8, 3-speed automatic, 7.75X14 Read Streak Tires, October 10 build date, Vinyl Split Bench Seats, that was pretty much from the bottom line, some of the codes above that and a couple more - hope that helps...

Thanks! It def has cam work…had some floor work done….It's def worthy of a weekend cruiser, local show car..

It sounds bad ***….

You think $22k is reasonable for it even with some bondo on the car?

IDK, i see the guy on here selling his non r/t in buffalo and can't get $13k for his blue one that looks to be in same the condition or maybe even a little bit better…...

I think there is a big difference between an R/T and a non R/T. It's like the difference between a GTO and a LeMans.

Depends on how much bondo there is really. I would use it as a negotiating tool but don't expect it to affect the asking price much. And there is a difference between an r/t and non r/t. The non r/t will always be worth a fraction of its r/t brethren. I also should mention that I'm assuming these cars are rarer in Canada which means their asking prices are higher.

I only found bondo on the rear qtr, at the bottom behind the wheel well

$22k canadian is $19,300 US
 
If it already needs a respray, I would just have a new piece of metal welded in. If paint is good, then I wouldn't worry about it until the bondo possibly separates. I would shoot for $21000.

Still think this is a great price. Is this numbers matching

Good call on negotiating down. I was figuring it was numbers matching. did you ask the guy why he's selling?

he has a lot of cars and his son is really getting into go carts(the fast ones). He is selling to fund that adventure...

the engine is a C440 5 23 hp but the build date on the car is october…I was doing research and in 1967 and earlier, they don't have "numbers matching" as dodge didn't stamp the numbers on the engine..just the build date
 
Im obviously a newbie, but i have another question…is the fender tag number that starts with the ws23 suppose to match up with the vin number that is on the inside of the drivers door?
 
yes, WS23 Is the first four of your vin. WS23 a coronet R/T, think I posted on your other question, about non numbers matching, I didn't see this one. 21K for Non matching? I don't know. I just sold my brothers matching 67' GTX beautiful car for 24K. It was fairly priced. True, Chrysler didn't put the vin on the engine in 67', but that engine build date should be very close to the car date, and not after the build date. If it is after, clearly the car doesn't have the original engine. that fact does
Influence its value.My GTX's(2) both have dates on the block of 10 days prior to the scheduled build date or less. My brothers was 9 days. My 67' Chrysler
440 is 3 days prior. So I don't recommend paying the price of a real original for one that Isn't. I wouldn't, and other 67' experts
wouldn't either. Just be cautious, and keep asking questions!
