New to me 78 magnum

popinsmoke · Mar 31, 2016

So after searching for awhile for a Magnum, I found one that has good bones and was only 3 hours south of me to boot.

She has good bones, obviously there are a few things I want to change but I think she is a great start.

My goal is a reliable daily driver and the big motor is going back into the 67 Coronet!!!!!!

360 2 bbl, rebuilt tranny, seller claims everything works as it should, I am excited to pick her up.

Is that a real Magnum Force spoiler?

popinsmoke · Apr 1, 2016

My guess is that the spoiler is a reproduction but pretty high quality.

great buy, i was following the magnum on ebay. He started out wanting $4500 and your purchase price was an awesome deal. I purchased one for about half of your price, but it needs a lot of work to reach a point near your new ride.

Nice car. Does anyone know where those seats came from?

Great looking car. The seat color seems out of place is that an original option?

dodge1972 · Apr 3, 2016

I have a 78 magnum with red seats, black seats appear to be original red seats re-covered in black.

Here are a couple of pics of the original seats my Magnum came has for comparison. They are leather.

They look like someone's taken the originals and covered them, mimic's the vinyl type seats, and the backs look era-correct as well

If you can get me the data from the VIN tag, I can tell you what it had. It's a 4 digit alpha-numeric code.

The seats were recovered by the previous owner the car originally was white exterior red interior with a 60/40 split bench, the P.O. added buckets and the console and the seats front and back recovered in black vinyl.
