Please take the time to scroll the whole ad, because with this auto and it being restored, there is both before and after pictures of the wonderful work put into this beauty.
This Coronet does not just look very appealing, she also has the mechanical and interior work done at the same level of quality. A labor of love was put into ever inch, and it shows. She drives and shows beautifully.
One of the iconic muscle cars of the 60's, its hood scope gives it that aggressive look all muscle cars have.
The paint is called Mitsubishi Rotor Glow, it was a color used on the 2010 Mitsubishi Lancer. Because the car was stripped down and prepped, the paint is in excellent condition.
Keystone Wheels are wraped with BF Goodrich Radial T/As, 15X6 front and 15X7 rear.
The interior remains quite original. The seats were recovered, new headliner and carpet, but the door panels and dash are original.
The engine was completely gone over. The block was bored and cleaned. The heads were resurfaced, valves ground, and the engine was balanced. There was a new cam lifter installed new rings, a high volume oil pump and new 2M 692 Rings and KB237 Pistons were installed.
Aluminum radiator with dual Spal fans for additional cooling.
Trunk area is has no rust issues as it was also focused on during the restoration.
As you can see, the undercarriage is as clean as the rest of the auto.
The headers were cceramic coated.
The transmisison is the widely popular 3 Speed Automatic A727 later remnamed the 36/46 RE, used with the 440 engine.
We have extensive photos and cds of the restoration. There is no rust left on this car. wherever there was any, it was cut out and replaced with metal pieces. The rear wheel wells were tubbed just about 3 inches.
Shocks have been upgraded to KYB front and rear, and front brakes have been converted to upgraded disks.
This rotisserie restoration was fully documented both in pictures and on cd disks. 100's of pictures were taken during the process. There is also a book full of original receipts showing money spent on this labor of love.
We have an entire folder of receipts for every part that was used in this restoration.
If you are truly interested, we can forward more build photos upon request.

Judging by his collection of cars, blues musician Kenny Wayne Shepherd (shown above, at left, with fellow musician George Thorogood) is an enthusiast of classic Dodge muscle cars, so it's no surprise that he is an active member of Mopar-related online communities. When his 1972 Dodge Charger turned up missing from an LA-area warehouse last Wednesday, Shepherd took to the forums of Moparts.org in an attempt to get the word out in hopes of recovering his custom classic. The Charger was stolen along with four other vehicles, and Hot Rod reports that two women have been taken into custody since - but still no word on the car. With its blacked-out appearance (including custom Foose wheels), this car is definitely hard to miss, but Shepherd also said that the car might be even more distinguishable now due to some body damage that may have occurred as it was being driven from the warehouse lot. Shepherd's website has a full gallery of images for this '72 Charger, which also has a modern 392-cubic-inch V8 under the hood and a six-speed gearbox pulled from a Viper. If you're in the LA area and happen to see this car, Shepherd asks that you call the LAPD West Valley Division at 818-374-7611. Here's to hoping this one-of-a-kind Charger turns up unscathed.
We love a good deal on high performance. It's what traditionally makes muscle cars so appealing - you get lots of speed, for not a lot of money. For 2015, Dodge has taken this to its logical extreme, offering its new 707-horsepower, supercharged, V8-powered Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat for just $59,900. For those wondering, that works out to just about $85 per horsepower, which when compared with a typical budget performance car, like the $24,995, 210-hp Volkswagen GTI ($119 per hp), demonstrates the Hellcat's astonishing value. The information was revealed by a photo (click on the inset image to expand) taken at this week's Portland launch event (our man Seyth Miersma is just now on the ground and will have a full report on the madness that is the Hellcat soon) for the entire 2015 Challenger range, and reveals the Hellcat's price alongside its high-powered competitors from Ford and Chevrolet. The discontinued 662-hp Mustang GT500 started at $56,000, while the 580-hp Camaro ZL1 starts off at $58K. Indeed, the only muscle car that outprices the Hellcat is the track-focused Camaro Z/28, a car that we're guessing could still wallop the Hellcat on the right piece of track, despite being down over 200 hp.
It's fascinating the way that one change to a complex system can have all sorts of unintended consequences. For instance, there are hundreds of new Chrysler Town and County and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans built in Windsor, Ontario, sitting in lots on the Detroit waterfront because of the energy boom in the Bakken oil field in the northern US and parts of Canada. The huge amount of crude oil coming from these sites mostly use freight trains for transport, and that supply boom has resulted in a shortage of railcars to carry other goods. According to The Windsor Star, North American crude oil transport by train has gone from 9,500 carloads in 2008 to 434,032 carloads in 2013. Making matters worse, some North American rail infrastructure is still damaged because of this year's harsh winter, and that's slowing things down even further. Chrysler admits to The Star that it has had some delivery delays due to the freight train shortage. In the meantime, it's using more trucks to deliver its vehicles. Trucking is a far less economical solution, partially because a train can carry so many more units at one time, but alternatives are slim. The Windsor plant alone has a deal for 33 trucks to distribute the minivans around Canada and the Midwestern US.
