    FOR SALE $650.00 obo 68 Coronet R/T, 68-69 Super Bee bulge hood, in Napa CA

    I am selling a 68/69 Coronet bulge hood. I paid crazy money for this not long ago because I couldn't find one and had to have it shipped to me. Since then, I found another and don't need two. It was primered when I got it and I don't know what that might hide. There is a crack in the primer...

    1968 Stripe question, transverse vs horizontal

    While looking at the sticky for fender tag decoding above, I was reminded of how much I don't know. Under the section that covers Sport/Accent Stripes (page 3), I see where reference is made to "Horizontal" stripes, and "Transverse (bumble bee)" stripes. All the stripes I recall seeing on 68 B...

    If you could only do one...

    So, while trying to figure out where to spend money on my project 68 Coronet, I have been pondering many things. Among those is bang for the buck on an engine rebuild. The engine will be a 440. It will be running HP exhaust manifolds, an almost stock intake and a stock carburetor. I am...

    SOLD Dakota Digital 68-70 B Body gauges, VHX-68D-STD $700.00

    I bought this through Summit a little over a year ago. Decided I am going to run the stock gauges. I also ordered the optional dimmer switch, and the optional compass/outside temperature sending unit which are included. This unit has never been out of the original box/shipping materials...

    Differences in AC brackets, C body to B body?

    I have a chance to by a complete 69 440 HP. Owner says he pulled it out of a New Yorker. I want to use it in my 68 Coronet R/T that originally came with AC. One reason I am leaning toward buying this engine is that it is complete, minus the carb, and I really like the idea of having every...

    I would like to be wrong on this 67 Coronet...

    There is a car posted on several Mopar related facebook groups, for sale in Texas. Ad claims it is a 67 Coronet R/T. Build sheet picture shows WS23. Seller states VIN on car matches and that fender tag is still there although there aren't any pictures of those (that I have seen anyway). The...

    Will a mud slide heal itself?

    This is about as off topic as things can get, but I have learned that there are a lot of people on here with expertise in many fields, so... I have a piece of land in the hills in Napa County Ca, that is mostly very steep hills and not of much value. But, I can go up there to shoot, cut down...

    My stupid truck’s clock finally fixed itself…

    For months now the clock in my truck has been reading an hour off. Got in it this morning and was pleased to see it fixed itself. It is a Ford so maybe that had something to do with it.

    FOUND 1968 B-Body passenger door

    I might as well add to my list of parts that no one ever seems to have... this time I need a nice passenger side door for a 68 Coronet (2 door). Hoping for one within a few hours driving time of Napa, CA. To make it more fun, I want very little to no rust, and no more than small dents. Thanks.

    Weight of K member, dressed engine, and transmission?

    Having recently taken the 440/727 and K member with front suspension and steering gear, I am amazed at how light my 68 Coronet feels (pushing it, not lifting it). I intend to install the whole package from underneath when I am ready, and because I plan to build a cart, I got to wondering what...

    68 Coronet, what AC parts are the same on 318 and 440

    My 68 Coronet was originally an AC car but has nothing remaining of the AC forward of the firewall. If I gain access to a 68 Coronet with AC on a 318, is there going to be anything useful for the 440? Any of the lines or brackets, etc.? Thanks

    Traffic Signal modifications

    I have an old traffic signal in my shop that has the bulbs set up to blink intermittently. They blink faster as they warm up and then they all end up pretty much lit up most of the time which doesn't have the same effect. I seem to remember toys that reacted to sound/music and was pondering...

    68 Coronet, slow project in Napa, CA

    I decided to go ahead and start documenting my progress or lack thereof on this forum even though I can assure you that it will not be anywhere near as impressive or as fast moving as most of the builds/projects that are posted here. To be clear, this is not a "build". This is more like...

    Rat Crap Winnebago Treasure Hunt

    I freaked out my wife and kids (adults) by dragging this turd home the other day. I bought it sight unseen, mainly because it was supposed to have a running 440 and had a Gear Vendors O.D. on a 727 in it. I want to run the GV in my Coronet if it will work, so I enlisted the help of a good guy...

    I am looking for one or more of the police dog dish caps with the holes around the perimeter. I am looking for some without dents or deep scratches. I have six now but still don't have four dent free caps. Looking for some to help make a really nice set of four. Thanks

    FOUND 68 Coronet front fenders,

    Looking for straight 68 Coronet fenders. Preferably in the northern San Francisco Bay area (I am in Napa), but open to having them shipped if the cost isn't too crazy. Still looking for a bulge hood too. Thanks

    Is this Bubba's Homemade CalTracs system?

    I've only owned this 68 Coronet for a couple of weeks. I traded for it sight unseen. Due to a medical issue I haven't had the ability to crawl all over it to see what I got. Finally got to take a limited look underneath the car today and found a traction bar setup I haven't seen before. It...

    FOUND Looking for a bulge hood for a 68 Coronet in Northern CA

    The hood on my 68 Coronet R/T was butchered by a previous owner. I thought I would check and see if anyone in the vicinity of Napa CA has one they want to sell. Like many people, I am on a budget, but let me know if you have one and I will see if I can make it work. Thanks

    Looking for basic 440 I.D. help.

    I just got a 68 Coronet R/T project. I knew that there was no fender tag, but I was hopeful that the engine would be the original. This is what it has in front... And this is what I see in the back... I have been away from Mopars for a long time so please excuse any questions that should...

    A Mopar owner again after a 30+ year break, in Napa CA

    I owned Mopars when I was in high school and the military. Somehow ended up owning everything else since then without intending to. Always wished I had them back. Recently came across a guy selling a 68 Coronet. We got to talking and it turned out I had a Chevelle that he wanted so we...
