Re: 1966 Hemi Coronet Custom Deluxe
 

May just have your brother car. This is a brown Custom Deluxe 4 speed car, not ordered according to fender tag. Build date was July 18. Check first three numbers of bottom row fender tag ie 718. How close to yours?

Hopefully this thread will reveal its ownership history. I am the third owner of the green car earlier in this thread and correspond regularly with owner 1 & 2. Will post a pic of owner 1 with a buck deer tied to the trunk. Si and Phil can't top that!!! Stephen

You didn't happen to buy the car out of New Castle, PA did you? If so, that's a shame, because that car was literally unmolested before Joe and Vic got their hands on it.

I don't have the fender tag for mine. Previous owner removed it and the family is keeping an eye out for it as they clean the garage out. I'm going off of the word of the original owner, who was a Dodge dealer. If you would like to talk, Frito has my number.

That's it and we gave it a good going over. Seems all for sale have been restored. This one was not. They had the motor professionally done and we checked with the engine builder. Just a lot of spray on oil on the underside and engine room. Darn sure not going to rust. Thanks for your call on it. Will post a pic in a few days of the two benchmarks.

Really...

How come I can't cut holes in my 64 hood and slap on a max wedge scoop instead of running a max wedge with a flat hood?

It could be bogus info - I heard it word of mouth from a class racer a few years back.

We just entered these cars in the 2015 Great Race which is June 19-28. St Louis to Ca. down route 66. The green one is an unrestored two owner auto shift car with 95000 miles. Motor rebuilt at 78k miles.

The brown one is unrestored five owner stick car with 41000 miles and a fresh motor. Really only driven by the original owner. Spent most of it's life in storage.

Here is the pic I promised. Original owner, standing in front of Maynard Motors New Hampshire in winter of 67 with his buck tied on the trunk. Those scratches along with a few dozen others are still there. Si and Phil can't top this one!
