Had a color change and factory AC is missing in action but a pretty nice looking car overall. Looks like a good amount of money has gone into the car.

It looks well done, but I would assume that the AC/heater box was untouched as neither are hooked up and nothing mentioned in that area at all. I noticed that the truck lid trim out shows some copper paint around the trunk latch. I'm also sure it won't sell unless the bids increase substantially.

sort of a red flag in my book.....looks like somebody didn't care......good chance it's a bondo buggy

On 66/67, all those compound, razor sharp body lines on the quarter panel and wheel well make any bondo work, even skim coating REAL easy to spot.
The wheel well trim doesn't help, but the only thing I see that throws a flag is the "bulge" of the panel looks a bit large.
That could be lighting and/or angle.
Where all those lines come together, in front of and right above the rear wheel well is incredibly difficult to get right with any kind of filler present.
That all looks OK to me, barring what you can't see because of the trim.
...and of course the other side is backlit.
...but we do have the fact that it's black and black shows waves like no other color working in it's defense.

Yes I am working on that right side myself now and its difficult to make it perfect...(dark red)...... but i am still working on that part...... mostly all steel no or very little filler.

Two major minuses on this otherwise nice '67 - Drastic color change from Copper to Black. Deletion of the air conditioning. On a Black car, to boot! At least, most of the interior was unaltered. You can see where the upper door paint got changed from Copper to Black, too. It's showing $20,500 right now. I couldn't see this go for more than $22K. A nice car that could've been a great car.

I would have kept it copper, but I'm biased. Haven't seen very many copper with copper interior in all the years I've had mine so I'm guessing it wasn't a popular combo.
And the whole dash is black.
Copper isn't one of those standout colors, especially in 67, but I like it and put the Coronet that I have for sale back as it was originally. I couldn't agree with the white painted top so it went Copper as well. I did take some white to the interior as I thought it was to much Copper.
4 Emblems and a 150 speedo, and you have a R/T clone.
I to am glad the 66-67 cars are beginning to make progress dollar wise.

I remember in 1968 I was looking for my first car and found two 383 4bbl Sport Fury’s on the local Plymouth lot with about 36k miles both. One was an all black auto and the other was an all copper 4 speed. I sure wanted that 4 speed but the all black car looked a little sinister and really shined. So I went black. But back then the single stage enamels just didn’t really pop and stand out like the modern paints do. Some of the primary colors like red and black stood out. But I’ve always been a sucker for a black car - I’ve got 3 of them right now including my daily driver.
