    Long cranking time to start

    That choke plate seemed to slam shut pretty hard. Maybe take just a little tension off the thermostatic spring. I would also say those 4 pumps had it heading to flooded.

    Ore the front turn signal bulb for ‘67 Coronet?

    1157's are a tad brighter and listed as heavy duty. Been that way for 50yrs. If anyone gets their hands on a WWGrainger catalog, they used to list all bulbs with specs.

    Charging issue

    Have an ohmmeter? Unhook battery and check every wire from one end to the other for continuity. You could have a broken wire somewhere.

    Weird Ignition Problem

    Off the top,, bad battery(I know-1yr). Bad ground, bad batt.cable. Just start from batt. and work your way back, connection to connection.

    Charging system close to max?

    You're correct, but only short term. Should be closer to 14v anytime above idle. There's also the load from blower fan,lights,etc.

    Charging system close to max?

    You might also have a failed diode in the alternator. 12.7V at idle or revved up? At idle sounds low.
