    1967 383 Coronets

    ^^^^^ For whatever reason 66-7 B bodies have always been somewhat of an underdog seems like.

    1967 383 Coronets

    I see people saying some car is worth say $35,000, but that car has to have someone paying $25,000 first! Then there is the B body pyramid. Up there at the top is the second gen Charger, then just below is say the 68-9 Roadruuner,Bee, then below that is the 66-7 B body. I am old and...

    1967 383 Coronets

    Yep, I have been building Mopars since the mid 80s so just another build. I do all my own work with exception of machine work. I am going to look at a decent 383 Coronet col. Auto runner. As I never start a project unless I know I will not be upside down just checking to get opinion as to...

    Hood scoop Coronet 66-67

    I have hand formed the RO scoop and the MW scoop out of 20 ga mild plate. Easy to do, just takes some time. Otherwise glassman is the way to go. I bought my first one from him what? 20 years ago! Great quality.

    Conversion to 4 spd manual satellite

    Even if you do not buy the major parts from Brewer's, they are invaluable for the small stuff, and the info as to every part is there! They have been doing this stuff for 30 years or more, well at least Wayne has.

    On the hunt!

    My old Mopars are my cheap toys, why I do all the work myself. If I put a BB B body together and have $6-8000 in it, that is TOPS for me!!!! I have had 4 hemi cars over the years and I do not care for them over a good 383 or 440 car. Just me. Thanks anyway

    On the hunt!

    The cars priced at say $12000 for a year and no takers, either give up or drop the price to where it sells. No doubt easier to find that ca for $10 than $8. I have owned many since mid 80's and I still say there are no cars for ale than buyers. I generally have 4-5 cars here for my...

    On the hunt!

    When I said a restored "driver", is real world $8000 I bet I am not far off. You hva to look at what people will pay and not what sellers are demanding. Our market has been soft for quite a while, and not getting stronger except with certain models like the Charger. A driver to me, is a...

    On the hunt!

    I admit I have built from rollers or complete (project) cars 95% of the old Mopars I have owned over the decades. It has always been difficult for me, to get my $ back out of a car even when I did most or even all of the work. Ialways bought the project car well worth the $ and still...

    The Mopar world has always been a brotherhood, especially years past. The most helpful caring car people in the world.

    On the hunt!

    I have no problem finding parts decent patch panels do nt exist that I am aware of. I want a pretty complete project It can be expensive buying a project needing all the odds and ends !! I am no expert but over the last 30 years I have restored Hemis, Maxies, 6 pacs E and B bodies, all...

    On the hunt!

    I look at what is selling and when it does, for how mucsh. Not for ale ads. But Texas is NOT a Mopar state and we are a long ways from New England. Back in Missouri cars were even cheaper. Look at the for sale ads here, and FABO, and see what has sold and how long it took. Few cars are...

    On the hunt!

    I admit to being a lifelong Mopar guy and have done many since the mid 80's, and have been playing with mainly A bodies for the last 15 years. But I am wearing out and need to find a B body project before I get too old to do it! I love the 68- 70 Runners Bees but we know how many $ and how...

    66-7 4 doors?

    I admit to being "conservative" (cheap), but I have owned many mopars since the mid 80's. all varieties. much easier to buy one,,... than ever sell and get ya money back out, no matter if you spend a $ on it or not! so if it is a project, my rle of thmb is NVER pay more for it...

    66-7 4 doors?

    I figure early B bodies are worth more than the 66-7's. and also running and running/driving means good brakes and exhaust, tires.. worth more..... i have owned many mopars since beginning the hobby in mod 80's. I have been into A bodies, and mostly early A's...

    66-7 4 doors?

    ok the older I get the more "mopar different" I seem to get. I like stuff that I like and is different. so I have been thinking of looking for a solid, running, complete 62-7 B Body. anyone with actual knowledge of what they will bring ( when that unique person...
