Introduction

[68_Siren]

Hey guys, I'm new here but have been lorking for a little while.

First off, I will be working on a "rough" '68 in the future.

I was wondering if anyone can tell me if the front end (Frame, etc... less body panels) of a '70 Coronet is the same as the '68 Charger from the firewall forward?

I'll get pictures up here as soon as I can, You'll see why I'm calling it a "Siren".

Thanks guys.

As far as I know 68-70 B Bodies share the same front ends with some differences in the rear. I know I used some 68 RR parts on my 69 Charger with no problems but I'm sure someone with a little more knowledge will chime in.

well, here are some I found on another forum of it. Judging by the the trees, these pictures were taken 10+? years ago before I found it.

Hmm image link not working...

Its the flat black one posted by magnumcharger.

When I found it,

Cleared some trees and junk.

Putting in a spare 8 3/4 I had around to bolt on some wheels. Easier then I though it would be...

And as she sits now.

The car I want to use for a front end, the 70 coroner. its a 4 door

I call her a Siren, because she calls me to her and even tho I know it will be the death of me, I can't resist.

BTW, the Charger was Free.
