Never made a 2 dr wagon, the guy combined a hardtop and wagon to make it.

Thought this was cool. Someone did a heck of a job on the conversion, even painted it gloss black!

Hate to say it but that truck is a newer then 78, it would be an 80 to 86. Closer to a 86 judging by the engine I think. Use to run a fleet of F350 tow trucks from 73 to 87, great trucks. No match however to my 07 Ram 3500 duelly I have now of course.

This lady makes me think of my next door neighbor. When she first started working she went down and bought her first car... and brand new 65 Mustang. I was nine at the time (I now live in the house I grew up in) and remember her getting it, Mustangs were still new and a big deal at the time...

Wow, 30 to 45 bucks for a model kit? Guess it's been a longggg time since I priced one.

I absolutely hate HEIs. Not for how they work but simply how they look. I won't even use one on a GM, let alone a Mopar or Ford! I realize not the info your looking for. If it fits and clears the wiper motor (why would anyone remove the wipers to run one?) it probably will work fine, they are...

Shipped the Camaro off last week (Yey), now wrapping up this 39 Ford Standard. Ford in a Ford, 351 Windsor powered. Moving along on a 34 Dodge 4 door we nicknamed Frankindodge (built from many pieces, glad it's finally in primer), this on will have a 360, 727 driveline.

Yeah, it needs total restoration but looks to be a great candidate for one. So nice to have them that complete and unmolested, makes restoration soooo much easier. Looks from the pictures to be pretty rust free, is it? That would be a bonus, especially I'm sure from your side of the country, we...

Not exactly a do it your selfer (hot rod shop) but we use Mittler Brothers. Had the smaller one, worked really well but would only bend about 100 degrees, did everything I wanted on door cars. Started doing some dragsters/ altereds and need full hoops, stepped up to their bigger one that will...

Discount Tire has a size calculator on their website as well. Really handy when you want to change tire sizes

Plain and simple. It's all about the dollar, how much to repair compared to a pay off minus what they figure they will get back for salvage. Generally 75 to 85% repair and they will total it, sometimes less if they are worried about supplemental damage not apparent upon the first inspection...

I have a problem with Fiat owning Chrysler too but it's better then shutting the doors.

Pull off the stupid stickers and I'd drive it, looks like a decent car, but then I'm a wagon guy. Did 71s have 360s or is that really a 318? There is a lady around here with a 73 Coronet wagon, she put Charger RT emblems on it and bolt on hood scoops with 440 emblems (of course it's still the...

Almost every bad deal I gotten into involved swaps. I agree, sell him your car and pay him to restore yours.

Cstripes, don't remember the guys name but I'm pretty sure it's the guy you sold it to. I bought it just west of Phoenix, he said he brought it down from Utah. GTXperiance, the 72 has significant structural damage, it's repairable but the repair costs would far out way the value of the car. My...

I'm in Albuquerque and would be glad to check it out if things change.

Guess I don't feel too bad, my 72 Coronet wagon ran 18.6s with a stock 318 with duels. Guess having a 3.25 gear helped. Kinda boring but it was consistent as a rock.

Cars are in Albuquerque, NM

I've decided to try and sell my wagons. The 72 has been our family car/ daily driver for the past 5 years, the 71 was a future restoration project. An accident took our beloved 72 out, broke my heart, now I feel the need to move on. The 72 is a baseline Coronet, a 120k+ mile survivor with mostly...

Opps, looking at your pics closer I see you filled trim holes, yours must be a little classier, a Coronet Custom, mines the plain jane base Coronet wagon.
