    68 Coronet trunk pan holes

    Hey folks, just replaced trunk pans in my 68, and getting ready to paint soon. My two piece trunk floor doesn't have any of the holes pre-drilled. Are there any of these that really need to be there? I don't plan on drilling out any that aren't necessary. The car had no gas tank when I...

    68 coronet HT rocker / quarter advice: How to tackle rust

    I've been doing some searching on FBBO and googling but still not quite sure how the panels are assembled in this area. The rocker panels on the car are solid as well as the quarters, but I have this one area just below/behind the bottom rear corner of the driver door jamb. I wore a mask just...

    68 coronet fender turn signal light location

    Just happened to be staring at the car the right way this afternoon, and had an "oh $hit" moment. My passenger fender is from the car originally, driver fender I bought at a show a few years ago. The side lights are round and identical location, the headlight buckets are offset on both...

    Mystery Leaf Spring Identification

    Hey folks, hoping someone may have some thoughts on my mystery (to me and google anyway) leaf spring. A little background, I bought this 68 Coronet from a guy who was building a drag car and ran out of money, so it was a bit of a "pig in a poke". Mini tub kit already installed with a narrowed...

    Bucket Seat Identification

    These came with the car (68 coronet, piled in the engine compartment :rolleyes:), and I was able to bolt them to the floor using the spacers, so at least the tracks seem to be correct for b-body. They don't seem to look like any pictures I've been able to find online, however they could have...

    Door skin advice

    A little background, door must have gotten up against something high, it was caved in along the front edge at the top (hope you can see where I circled). Ground the skin off and cleaned up the shell, rebuilt the hinges so working with something stable. Getting ready to take the shell back...

    68 coronet fender bolt kit - what's what

    Hey folks, apologize for the stupid question, I inherited this thing disassembled and some (not all) of the bolts tossed in box. I think my best bet is to buy fender bolt kit from AMD, but I'm having trouble ID'ing what it is I'm getting in the kit. My current guess is: 1 - four bolts/j nuts...

    AMD door skin on a 68 coronet?

    Hey folks, my driver door is badly "mushed in", however I think the bones of the door are intact. At first glance it would seem that a door skin would be the ideal solution, but most threads I've read sound like the lines rarely line up, etc. Has anyone specifically used an AMD door skin on a...

    WTB 49-54 Chrysler steering box

    Sorry, obviously not a b-body, but my stepfather is having a hard time finding one and I thought folks on here might either have one or know where to look. My understanding is either a DeSoto or Chrysler will work. Thanks!

    68 Coronet Street Machine

    I've been getting great advice here for too long, and have put off starting a build thread but I suddenly have a little extra free time on my hands. :drama: My apologies in advance as I catch up from too long ago to remember. This all started due to me wanting to build some sort of ground...

    Any bracing needed when replacing tail panel and trunk pan (68 coronet)

    Morning folks, hope everybody has been disinfecting liberally with alcohol. And by alcohol I mean bourbon (or your libation of choice). It's time to tackle the *** end of this thing, and I'm thinking I can repair my tail panel but it almost certainly has to come off to do so. Plus the trunk...

    Header advice for 68 coronet with 440 source heads and power steering

    Trying to install a set of 78036 Hedman headers on my Coronet, and of course headers don't ever just bolt up. Motor mounts are new (Mancini mag mount set). The #3 tube is touching the power steering box before the flange is even close to flush. Before I start wailing on these brand new...

    Lube Locker gasket for Dana 60 is the bomb

    Pricey at $22 (Amazon prime), but it sealed up my pain in the *** stamped cover on the Dana and now can easily drain it anytime I need. https://www.lubelocker.com/product/llr-d060/

    Anyone installed Mancini "magmount" set?

    Trying to install these things on 68 coronet: https://www.manciniracing.com/benmaset.html There were no instructions with them, none on the web site. So I assumed you torque to 75 ft lbs per the factory ("C" in the diagram). I chickened out before getting close to 75 ft lbs as it just didn't...

    Need help identifying holes in 68 coronet firewall

    Hey folks, I'm getting ready to mount electronic ignition and voltage regulator to my firewall, and have a few holes I can't identify from pics I've found online (I basically bought a box of parts so no idea what came from where). I don't want to cover something important and regret it down the...
