Clear

This auction is for a "RARE" 1966 Dodge Coronet 440. California desert car with next to no rust and still has the original Warranty card. I purchased the car in Palm Desert CA in December 2003. It has the original matching # 361ci motor and automatic transmission with power steering. Manual brakes - but turned drums, rebuilt wheel cylinders and fresh brake shoes. Hooker headers with Flowmaster Series 20 mufflers with a nice deep throaty sound, and has set off car alarms. It has a very aggressive cam which makes it hard to start at times. The car was originally KK medium turqouis as seen in the engine compartment pictures. It was painted at Maaco in June 2008 a Dodge Signal Green including all jambs, with a hot rod matte black hood color - cost $1,541. It's been garaged ever since. Although it's not true to car, I would recommend a matte black ribbon at the rear of the car for balance. Both front and rear sets repaded and recovered by West Coast Customs for $1,068. Front bumper straightened and re-chromed by Keystone in Stockton CA. New gas tank, gommet, filler neck seal, and elbows. New trunk mat, divider insulation, and spare tire cover. New truck lid seal installed. New front and back door panels. New black carpet from Jim's Auto Parts. Under the carpet, we installed noise and heat insulation pad. New glove box liner and headliner insulation not yet installed. But do have bows and clips. New hood to cowl seal installed. New Edelbrock intake manifold with Edelbrock 600 cfm carb. The car had a huge tunnel ram intake with way too much carb.when I purchased. The body trim pieces were rattle can painted flat black - but didn't stick as you can see in the pics. They need to be removed and either stripped of the paint or powder coated flat black. New hood insulation installed. Car has ALL the correct badges and letters. Beautiful classic Mopar rally rims with 60R/15 BF Goodrich tires all around purchased at Stockton Wheels for about $1,000. New KYB shocks on all four. Mallory electronic iginition. Accell Super Coil. Dash in decent shape but needs work. Speedometer and gas level not working. Rear deck lid needs to be finished. Front windshield has a chip in it - and all other glass is great. I do have some misc. parts that go with the car. This is NOT a frame off restoration. It was a car my son and I worked on and he drove all through high school. He's now graduated from college and moving overseas. We love this car and both of us hate to see it go. It's not a showroom car but a quality daily driver and close to being finished. This car is sold in "As Is" condition with no warranties implied or agreed upon. PayPal payment highly preferred. Clear CA Title with current registration.
