Mopar for now....

[Schlitz]

Hello,

I'm new here and in Wisconsin. I have my dads 1967 Dodge Coronet in my garage and I'm putting it back together for him. I'll have some questions so I joined up, I'm not normally a Mopar guy, but this is a sweet car and I hope you will tolerate an outsider like me :grin:. The sooner I get it done, the sooner I get my garage back and can work on my 59 Buick, I'll attach a few pictures here and take my questions to the other forums. I've read a lot of good info here so far just lurking.
Behold! The Coronet!

A fine job you are doing right there. Looks like it will be a 'points' restoration. Welcome.

Looks like it will be a 'points' restoration. Welcome.

Thank you. I think we got a little carried away... I'm hoping he wins a few trophies with it and then drives the wheels off that car. It's looks like too much fun to keep it garaged up somewhere.

You can laugh at my car if you want. I don't mind.:sideways tongue: I'm the one who has to drive her, and I loves her :love2:. Long ways to go before she is want I want but fun to drive right now.

YY1: Yeah, it's a factory A/C 383 car. As for my dad helping out,,, no. I want the thing to turn out halfway decent lol. Its just me and a buddy of mine working on this one.

Yes, shes in good shape. Someday I would like to get to a newer transmission, lose the torque tube, add air bags, flame throwers, better paint, crocodile interior... that kind of stuff. Like I said, a long way from where it needs to be.
