I own a 1967 Coronet R/T, so I like to collect '67 Coronet literature. Some of my favourite pieces are the original drive reports because they usually show detail shots of how our old cars were actually built. A couple of these drive tests show a '67 Coronet unicorn. A June Motor Trend test compares the new 440 Magnum to the 426 Hemi. The 440 is in a R/T, while, curiously, the Hemi is in a white, with black vinyl top, 1967 Coronet 500! The R/T has the 150 mph speedometer, and the Coronet 500 with the Hemi has the 120 mph version. Both cars are CAP cars, so I figure they are Los Angeles-assembled pieces. Around the same time, Car Craft did a drive test on this same white 1967 Coronet 500. It would be nice to think this unicorn still exists, waiting discovery in a L.A. garage!
I have a Canadian 1967 Coronet show room brochure showing a bronze with black vinyl top 500 with a 426 Hemi sign on the front fender. Comparing this picture with the one in the U.S. version of the brochure, it is easy to see that this Hemi emblem was airbrushed over the 383 Four Barrel sign seen on the U.S. car on the fender of the Canadian car. This was intentionally done! WTF?
