Got a new mopar today. NON charger. opinions wanted!

[69charger2002]

well guys i KINDA got this car off ebay.. i bought it. but wasn't the high bidder. it's a 68 coronet. /6 with 36000 original miles on the car. kind of custom redone. maaco paint job that looks better in pics than it is. but overall a great driver, and the guy spent 3 years "restoring" it.. got it fairly inexpensive..(under $7000) so though it wasn't a charger, i was happy to get it and add it to the collection. what do you guys think?

[dodgecharger-fan]

   No.

It makes your butt look big. You better sell it to me. 




I love the tailpanels on those cars.

Good score.

[supserdave]

Nice looking cars, we have a 69 bee in the stable.

[Brock Samson]

I think it's bitchen, looks to be a bit of blue pearl in that paint, or perhaps it's the photo,..
so ya went and got yourself a token coronet, looks pretty decent, you gonna have folks commin up asking about your big block 440 now, eh?.. 
That's pretty low mileage Trav, when ya gitta chance how about complete pics?..
And please do not say what you paid for her i've done enuff crying for one life time... 

[Manfred318]

Cool I like it

[1969chargerrtse]

That is great   and at a super price.  I was thinking the other day I remember a 6 cyl 69 Charger that I wish I had bought.  Great car.

[Charger-Bodie]

68 Coronets are very sharp cars !! seems like a good enuf deal too if its pretty clean?

[Charger_Fan]

Looks great from here, congrats!

[draftingmonkey]

Very nice    . So are you going to do a build on the /6 to be different?

[Dave22443]

Nice score! 

If it were me, I'd leave the /6 in it.  Just tell'em its a big block 6   

[69charger2002]

thanks guys   
i am leaving the /6 in it, he(previous owner) did tear the /6 down and freshen it up some.. and ya gotta LOVE the chrome lol
here are a couple pics.. keep the opinions coming. brock if you REALLY want to know, i got her for $6500, but don't tell anybody!

[69CoronetRT]

what do you guys think?

I think you are developing an exceptional taste in cars.....

Nice score for that price. Those are hard to come by. IMHO leave it a /6.

[Paul G]

It's a Mopar! Gotta love it. Your keeping the /6? Looks like a perfect platform for a big block or Hemi crate motor.

[71ChallengeHer]

Congrats, looks like a great car. Gotta love the /6 motors

damn.... some guys have alll the luck!!!!!!!! LOL
nice score trav!!!!

[Ghoste]

Opinions, you want opinions?  The 68 Coronet is a styling smash that was only just edged out by the 68 Charger.  Great score Trav. 

[supserdave]

I'd hook the AC back up and cruise!

[sailpanel]

Looking good and ya gota love that " leanin tower of power".

[69bronzeT5]

Nice score Trav!!!!

[694spdRT]

Looks like a great car! I love the '68 and '69 Coronet body style. Dad has a '68 Super Bee that is a blast to drive.

I'm glad your keeping it a /6 and can enjoy it as an affordable driver. 

[69charger2002]

thanks again guys.. what's seriously crazy is i may actually drive this one more. the guy tells me it gets close to 20 mpg. that is better than any hemi ram i've driven lately.. i like the 69 better myself personally, but let's face it, when a deal smacks you in the face, beggers can't be choosers.. one thing i must admit, power steering is in this car's future.. manual brakes is freakish enough, but manual steering i'll have that mahogany wheel down to a nub in weeks
