I have the opportunity to pick up a 65 coronet 383 4 speed in great overall condition question I have is what would be the average value on this type of car and is there anything I should look for or stay away from?

Car is complete body is in great shape, what's the availability of sheet metal for these just in case, I just restored a 74 RR sheet metal was non existent had to fab 90% of it, don't want to get caught in that situation again.

Crusty`s right about parts. Not to much available for sheet metal either so make sure its solid. I think rear wheel arches are available but that maybe about it. Great car if its an original 383 4 speed though. Getting tough to find!

the body is everything. some patch panels available. look at floors and trunk pans. cowls rust out and no repop sheet metal. i'm partial to the early b's, but do have a 69 r/t.

According to the owner sheet metal is in great shape not an original 4 speed was converted, but done right I have a 74RR I just finished restoring has a 440 and is a factory 4 speed he's looking to trade plus a couple grand he values his car at 15k I value mine 17k I'm looking to make a beast out of the coronet what do you guys think about that trade?

Its hard to compare but some pics of the Coronet would help.

Coronet looks sweet! Don't like the added marker lights but if they don't bother you than its ok. If it`s as solid as it looks in the pics and has no rust, I sure would consider the trade. But then I'm kinda partial to 65 Coronets.....
