i have a 65 coronet 440.. 361 engine ,3 speed manual i think ,complete car ,all original parts look to be there.been sitting outside for 35 years. .body and frame are good but needs floor pans and trunk floor..it has power windows and i wondered if that made it any more valuable?..and if anyone knows what a car like this mite be worth ? thanks for any info...it is black with red interior

Sitting outside for 35 years? Floor pans gone? God knows what the rear frame rails look like. I'd say $2k at most and that's taking inflation into account. I purchased my '64 Polara 383 4 speed 2door HT about 15 years ago for 2k and it was a running, driving car (although it had no real brakes). It had been sitting outside in the owners driveway for 10 years but it was an Alabama car so rust was minimal.

Nice score! Is it a 361 or 383? And a 3 on the tree! It needs floor pans for sure What are your plans for it? Hope you enjoy it what ever you do with it! keep us posted on the progress!

i believe the vin says its a 361 ...i plan on selling the car..

361 3 on the tree, manual brake, power steering, power window, black, red gut. That's a cool combo.

It does look much better than I expected..... so I'll revise my estimate to $3-3.5K. However there still may be issues that aren't readily apparent, given outside storage for that amount of time.

thanks for the info,i think it is a good car for restoring and i know from my experience that it being a complete car is a plus also..i have been restoring a car and having to look for original parts ,it is time consuming and expensive
