i AM SELLING THIS FOR A FRIEND BUT HAVE INSPECTED THE CAR AND CAN ANSWER MOST QUESTIONS WHEN ASKED. ORIGINAL & COMPLETE 1965 CORONET 500 426 WEDGE 4 SPD WITH CONSOLE. BEEN IN THE BARN SINCE 1979. ONE OWNER TITLE WAS TRANSFERED TO WIFE? WHEN THE OLD MAN DIED. CAR HAS NO BACK GLASS...DON'T KNOW WHY. MISSING...3 HUBCAPS, TRANS DUST/INSPECTION COVER, TRUNK EMBLEM, JACK & AIR BREATHER. THE REST, BEST I CAN TELL IS THERE. ORIGINAL DUAL POINT DISTRIBUTOR, CARB. INTAKE AND EXHAUST MANIFOLDS (NOTICE THAT THE HEAT RISER IS STILL IN TACT), RADIATOR, SEVEN BLADE ALUMINUM FAN W/SHROUD. SHIFTER, CONSOLE, WINDSHEILD WASHER, INTERIOR ETC. ENGINE TURNS FREELY BY HAND AND CAR ROLLS SO TRANS IS FREE AND GOES THROUGH GEARS. DO NOT KNOW GEAR RATIO IN DIFF. REAR DECK (TRUNK) COVER IS THERE AND DENT FREE, PITTED BUT TRY TO FIND ONE ANYWHERE THAT IS NOT BEAT UP. ROOF IS NOT RUSTED UP UNDER TOP, SIDE MOULDING AND ROCKER BRIGHTWORK IS VERY STRAIGHT & CLEAN OVERALL. BUMPERS ARE ROUGH BUT GRILL IS BETTER THAN MOST AND THE PASSENGER SIDE BEZEL IS GOOD, THOSE ARE THE ONES THAT GET THE HIT IT SEEMS. ALL EMBLEMS ARE PRESENT EXCEPT TRUNK. YEAH IT IS ROUGH AND OLD BUT FIND ONE THAT IS COMPLETE AND AS STRAIGHT AS THIS ONE. FLOORS ARE SOFT IN A FEW PLACES BUT SOLID OVERALL. TRUNK IS ROTTED OVER TANK AND LOWER QTRS ARE IN NEED. PASSENGER DOOR IS WORSE THAN DRIVERS DOOR.ALL HINGE AREAS ARE GOOD. MOST ALL THE RUST IS SURFACE AND CAR HAS BEEN UNCLEANED PURPOSELY TO AUTHENTICATE THE BARN. ROCKERS AREA IS GOOD. TORSION AREAS AND FRAME RAILS ARE ALL VERY SOLID. ALL TRANS LINKAGE IS THERE. PINION SNUBBER, FRONT SWAY BAR, NO POWER. VINYL TOP...HUH. ONE CALL TO LEGENDARY AND THE INTERIOR IS DONE, AS ALL IS AVAILABLE. THE WHITE INTERIOR PICTURED IS ALL LEGENDARY AND WAS, ONCE AGAIN, FAR WORSE THAN THIS CAR. ALWAYS A TENNESSEE CAR. IT IS RARE AND NOT GOING CHEAP. IF YOU GOT THE TIME AND THE SKILLS THIS IS ACTUALLY NOT A BIG RESTO JOB. THIS IS A REAL JEWEL ALTHOUGH IT DOESN'T LOOK IT TO THE UNEDUCATED EYE. REAL CAR RESTORATION GUYS CAN SEE THE VALUE, AS I CERTAINLY DO. THIS CAR IS NOT A ROTTED RUST BUCKET. IT HAS SOME BUT, COMPARATIVELY LITTLE FOR AGE AND APPEARANCE. I HAVE MORE PICS THAN COULD POST....JUST ASK. THE A990 RELIC PICTURED WAS FAR WORSE AND I TOOK A PARTS CAR FOR THE MISSING PARTS THAT THIS ONE HAS ALREADY. I HAVE MANY LITTLE REPLACEMENT PARTS THAT I WILL COLLECT AND ADD TO AUCTION THIS WEEKEND. BID HIGH & OFTEN AS THESE DO NOT COME AROUND OFTEN. THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!On Feb-22-13 at 09:07:42 PST, seller added the following information:For anyone who may wonder........The white 65 is for comparison only and not part of auction
