1970 Dodge Coronet 440 4 Door

I have owned this 70 Coronet since March 2004. I have worked on it and stored it on and off over the last 9+ years and now I have bought a 1970 Coronet convertible and a new 2012 Dodge Charger. Time for someone else to enjoy the 70 Coronet 4 Door. When I first got the car, it had a lot of water leaks in the trunk, I repaired all of them (mostly lack of seam sealer after a quick re-paint). I repaired a bad wheel bearing, replaced all 4 drum brakes, rebuilt the 904 transmission and did some other small upgrades. I also replaced the original seat covers with generic cloth covers. They are custom fit, but not the OEM upholstery. I have the originals for use as patterns in case you want to return to the OEM style. I replaced the carpet and converted the AC system to r1234a and installed a new compressor and condenser.

I drove the Coronet on and off over the years, as my business got busy, it tended to sit in storage a lot. in 2009 I decided to make it my daily driver and began a series of upgrades designed to make it a practical daily driver that I could have room in the back seat for my daughters and still have a bit of fun on the street. I collected a lot of parts for suspension upgrades and removed the original vinyl roof to find any last rust damaged. I found holes around the front and rear windows and that is when the plans stalled. The coronet sat in storage again until we found time in the shop to repaired the rust around both windshields.

Once I repaired the rust in the roof, by cutting out the bad metal and welding in new, I wasn't sure if replacing the vinyl top was a smart move. I decided it did need the black top to make the Ice Blue Metallic paint show well, but did not want the future rust issues that seem to come along with a vinyl top. So I used spray on bed liner material to replace the top! Now you have the look of a vinyl top and it is the best protection available for the roof. I then had the car repainted in the original B3-Ice Blue paint color, but used new basecoat / clearcoat paint. The underhood and under the decklid are still original paint.

Around that time, I purchased a new Charger (a 2006 R/T with the track pack performance group and a 5.7 Hemi). Well, that car changed all my plans and the charger became my daily driver and the 70 Coronet sat in storage again. I brought it out again last year (2012) and finished the suspension upgrades, added front and rear sway bars, added welded in torque boxes and frame connectors. I also replaced the steering gear box, idler arm, pitman arm and installed a new A/C compressor and replaced the evaporator (inside the car with the heater core). The factory A/C system blows cold and all the controls operate as they should.

Now I have bought another new car (a 2012 Charger R/T this time) and also recently found a purchased a one owner 1970 Coronet Convertible, so it is time for the 1970 Dodge Coronet 4-door to be enjoyed by a new owner. It is a 50 year old car and has issues, but overall it is a good running car that operates as it should, but it is not a new car! Most folks make statements on ebay about purchases being final and I have a slightly different philosophy. If you purchase the Coronet and come look at it and decide you do not want it, you do not have to buy it. I do ask that you cover the cost of the listing, but that is all. I own a Mopar shop and my reputation on ebay is important to us, we want happy customers!

Car dealership in East Texas destroyed by tornado

Tue, May 2 2017

Few things are as fundamentally and unconditionally destructive as a tornado. These cataclysmic phenomena pass through towns, leaving nothing in their wake but ruin and despair. According to an NBC affiliate in the Dallas-Fort Worth region, a car dealership in nearby Canton was hit by a tornado Saturday night. No employees were hurt. Four other people in the area weren't so lucky. Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Canton's new showroom and service center were pounded by the storm, leaving dozens of cars in various states of ruin. Some merely lost windows, while others were flipped and left on their sides or roofs. Photos show piles of cars stacked up like Hot Wheels dumped on the ground. According to a statement from the National Weather Service, winds reached speeds of up to 140 mph. Two other tornadoes were reported in the region. The area has been declared a disaster zone and first responders from up to 100 miles away have swarmed in to help out those in need. According to Reuters, the storms Saturday killed 11 people nationwide.
