1969 Coronet 500 convert

[FLG]

Hey guys,

Found what i think is a 68 Coronet 500, might be a 69 though.

Will try to get some pics and info. I have pics somewhere, will have to find em.

Car looks to be in really great shape, wondering what these are worth?

Not sure about engine yet. Im going to try to get in contact with the owner.

Edit: After reviewing only picture i have, (which i will post below)...im pretty sure its a 69 judging by the front side marker light.

Is it for sale?   post up pics.  Ive seen mint restored ones go for 20-23K

Like every car depends on the condition, documentation, ect..... I keep tabs on these because I have a 68 Coronet RT rag.  I just saw a great driver quality 500 rag top for $11k.  I also saw a recently restored 500 for $20k.  All depends... Post more info and find out the details.

Here's a few pictures of mine.-

The easiest way to tell is a 69  500 has the three tail light set up.  Probably my favorite Mopar rear end.  Post pictures when you get them.

the beauty of ones opinion.

I love the look of the 68's much more.

I've said it before...my 2nd favorite year Mopar (2nd only to it's kissing cousin the '68 Charger). Beautiful looks.

Here is the only pic i have ATM, its horrible but you get an idea.

I dont think its for sale but i have never spoke to the owner. One day i was looking in through the fence (had charger with me). One worker approached me and asked if he could help me with anything. I just politely told him im a mopar fan and was admiring the car, asked who owned it and he gave me a the business card for the place and told me to ask for (forgot his name) but he was the owner of the business and the car.

Im waiting for the weather to break so i can make a day trip and have the charger with me. I honestly thing its easier talking to some people if you bring your own gal with ya (in some cases). Instead of thinking of you as some guy off the street with dreams and no money with nothing to do but bother them, they seem to see things much differently.

Here is the bad pic. Im pretty sure its a 69 and have changed the heading. Front marker light seems to be a good give away.

I pass it pretty regularly, but usually only at night. It now appears to be on jack stands and some work is being done.

yes, a 69. I can see the 69 headlights/grille setup ( beside the obvious sidemarker LOL )

A perfect donor car to build your own Charger convertible!!!!

picked up a 68 Coronet 500 Vert this year- 318/auto- Burgundy int/ext with a black top.- gonna need the trunk and drivers floor pans and the usual stuff done to it- but as stated- the rear end is a real nice touch to it!!!!

It was sitting at a place hear for years- the usual " I'm gonna fix it up one day!! "

Going to keep it the same color- nice cars there FJ5WING and 70moparmann !!!!!!!

is amazing how in this angle the windshield looks noticeable different shaped and size than hardtops

Both of those R/T rags looks really great!  I recently sold a 68 500 rag with 318 for 9,500.

Here's my 69 R/T HT for comparison

A buddy of mine has a couple 69 Coronet 500 ragtops. One is a real nice restored green with white top and interior, 383 AT. The other one is an unrestored red with white top and interior 318 AT. I think he still has the red one for sale but not sure. If anyone's interested, let me know and I'll contact him. There's nothing like cruising around on a hot summer night with the top down. Like Mopar Nats a couple years ago. We were out for hours.
