1966 Coronet stocker

Spyphish · 04-08-2016, 08:43 PM

Well race fans we have a good news bad news day to report. 66 4 door Coronet in the guide so game on. Bad news, car must be presentable so I MIGHT make a local points deal but NEVER a national event without a paint job and dent repair. So this thread is cooked 'cause I ain't painting or patching it.

PS -001 followed by a 000 with a clutch and you were in the laser business = extra tech inspection LOL.

Well, we started dismantle last night. Found 3 build sheets and the cert card. Have some "run over something big" repair on undercarriage but all body work is DONE already. Thanks to decals. It's in the flesh and in the guide. Will start on motor at weeks end. Cool car.

So, it's back on? Your previous post says you aren't doing it.

I could've swore that nhra has let people run combinations based on the manufacturer saying they would've built it if someone had ordered it.

We start welding connectors and other bracing this weekend on the 4 door. Had to patch three spots in under carriage. Will post some pics later. Check out Vicari auction Biloxi as the brothers and sisters will be featured on Friday night. Not many folks like the Coronets, but I do, especially the hemis!!! Phish

A little tire clearance needed.

To quote Emily Litella; "Never mind".
Hope it's going well.

It's an ugly male, and thanks to Frito for finding it. Radio delete panel worth more than the whole car. Will try to use it at D4 event to get a grade point. At least 11 second street car. Phish
