New Guy: 68 Coronet 440 2dr with a 318

[magnumminded]

Hello to all. This is my first ever B-Body Mopar I have owned and my first Coronet. I traded even up my 79 Lil Red Express for this car. I wanted more of cruiser and that's what I got.

It's a 68 Coronet 440 2dr hardtop with a slightly modded 318/904/ 2.76 open 8 3/4 rear car. Originally a SS1 yellow/white vinyl top with a light blue metallic interior car. Needs paint and some bodywork. Other than that a decent car.

hummm.....my original post never showed up:edgy:

Welcome. Wish I had my books handy to decode your tag. IF that car is really an originally yellow with BLUE interior, it is surely a 1 of 1

 

[HitIt]

Sweet Coronet! Yellow with blue interior is just wacky.

 

[old tired rebel]

It was all those funny little cigarettes back then. :rolling:

Wecome Magnum, love the 68 myself. had a 68 Super Bee in high school, 383, 4 speed in a B5. Yours looks better NOW then mine in 1975, you have a beauty there. Good find, I can appreciate what you have. Mocajava

What width tires are you running on back and how much clearance do you have? The meats look great from the rear, always liked those tail lights too.
