Been discussing a 67 Coronet 500 with a gentleman up North of me. The going price seems fair enough and the pictures are of good original paint with no visible rust on exterior. Has a factory 318 w/title. From what I gather, the front end is off and motor is out, along with interior. Was thinking of buying it and putting it back together 100% original to sell here on FBBO. Is there a good fair market value at selling on these models? I know Chargers and RR's, but not sure on the Coronet's. Hagerty's has their own ideas about what the car would be worth. Was looking for some input on value, and also contacts for interested parties from here at home. Almost forgot, the colors are Metallic Blue and Blue on the inside. Any response would be greatly appreciated.
 
67 on down are not as desirerable as the 68 on up...people ask up to 15 to 20k but I doubt they get that for a non R/T car. I like them...the 66/67 have the best dash/interior of any 68 on up as far as I'm concerned...no big padded glove box that hardly ever lines up with the rest. BUT...67 on down are hard to find body parts
 
Any top of the line car brings more money and it being a 500 helps but having the near the bottom option 318 won't help much. I'm one of many that like the boxy styling but also know how much money I'm willing to pay for one....
 
Well, I bought one that was 100% there in original condition with a 318, A/C, full tinted glass, buckets w/buddy seat, cream color w/ black interior, running and driving. I paid less than $4000.00 for it. Parts are difficult but not impossible to find. The toughest parts seem to be trunk finish panels, front grille surrounds, and wheel arch moldings like the ones that come on the R/T. Also the wide 500 side moldings that go along the bottom body crease above the wheels, and letters. Everything else seems to be available. Check the frame and the floor pans and the fresh air ducting from the front cowl down. That's all I got...good luck Cranky.\

OH! and lenses for the front turn signals and rear tail lights. Of course if it does not have a console and you want one, get your checkbook out and don't cry...
 
A #1 car being perfect....how bad is a #5. Also a good idea to make sure it's not a 273. Not a big deal to most but I like having 45 more cubes in the same package than having 45 less lol. The 67 teen should also have a forged crank.
