66-67 Coronet/Charger questions

I have a few questions that I would like to ask.

Does anyone have any pictures of 66-67 Coronets with Charger rear wheel openings?

Does anyone know if disk brake assemblies off of a 73 Charger will work on a 66 Coronet?

I may think of a few more shortly, but any help would be great.
Thanks, Jeremy

I did get someone to photoshop it for me once but I have never seen one actually done.  As far as swapping the brakes go, it's the same procedure as swapping them onto 68-70 B-bodies.
I'll try and find that Coronet photoshop.

The four door thing has the regular Coronet wheel opening though.

So will Coronet front Fenders interchange with '66-'67 Charger? Grille bolt up? Headlight buckets in same place?

Ghoste

Not readily interchange, there are some modifications required.  For one thing, the Charger headlights buckets are a rotating assembly so are therefore not fixed in place as the Coronet ones.

I see said the blind man....Damn, and here I got a hood and left front fender for a Coronet I guess...

Doesn't mean it can't be used, it's just that it isn't as simple as just bolting it on.  So until AMD steps up on the 1st gen Charger program...
