I picked this up a few years ago and have never really had the time to get into it. It is a 318 3 speed on the column factory AC car. The whole car is there and the body is decent shape. It does need interior ,floor pans, front brakes. The back window will not roll up and the tail gate won't open. The engine ran when I parked it, now it will crank but not start. It was originally a California car from what I can tell but I bought in GA so there is no title. BOS only.I think it would be a pretty sweet ride with a little work. Asking 1000$ OBO. Let me know what you guys think or if interested. Thanks!

68 Coronet wagon

I have the wagon now. I replaced the floors in it, installed new gas tank, rebuilt the front and rear suspension, added front disc brakes, bought a 69 wagon parts car for extra parts for it, etc. I am kind of burned out on the project right now so would entertain offers or I am also looking for the third rear facing seat for it if anyone knows where one is at?

68 coronet wagon

are you still looking to sell, and how much are you asking
 
The car is almost finished, so I'm not really looking to sell it anymore, but I do have a 69 Sport Satellite wagon project that I would sell for $1,500. It is the 9 passenger but is missing the rear facing seat and has the cargo cover instead. I don't have any pics of it right now, but if you pm me with your email I will send them as soon as I get a chance.

In the mean time, here is the latest on my Coronet wagon. Fresh 383 with a rblt OD 4 spd from a 70's Dodge van and an E-body pistol grip setup. Rblt 8&3/4 with 3.23 gears. Trimmed out in red and almost ready for final paint. Just took it on vacation to the Smokey Mountains in TN and got about 20 mpg cruising at 80 mph turning 2,400 rpms.69 wagon (24).jpg69 wagon (26).jpg69 wagon (27).jpg20121220 Smokey Mtns TN (25).jpg20121220 Smokey Mtns TN (82).jpgIMG_0935.jpg
 
looking good :headbang:
 
Thanks for the compliments. Like I said earlier, I'm not really looking to sell the Coronet now that it is almost finished, but everything is for sale for the right price.

I do have the 69 Sport Satellite wagon project that I would sell for $1,500. It does not have an engine or trans in it, but I do have a mid 70s motorhome 440/727 that is complete from carb to pan and fan to tailshaft that I would sell for another $500. The front suspension was rebuilt a few years ago and all of the brakes were upgraded to 11x3 drums. It has an 8&3/4 rear and Reese hitch on it. If you want it for dirt cheap as a project, you gotta get it now before I start working on it like the Coronet wagon.

As for the Coronet wagon, anything is for sale for the right price, but keep in mind everything it has done to it. All new wiring from headlights to taillights with brake controller for towing (still needs hitch installed). All new brake system from master cylinder to pads and shoes with front discs. All new fuel system from carb to tank. Rebuilt 383 and OD 4spd with new pistol grip shifter, linkage, and driveshaft. Rblt suspension with front sway bar and 8&3/4 rear with extra leaf springs, new axles, and 3.23 sure grip. New carpet and floors insulated with dynamat, new custom dash with Autometer gages, new heating and AC unit (heater works but still need to hook up AC components), excellent original headliner painted black, inside roof cleaned, painted, and insulated with dynamat. All of the window regulators were removed, cleaned, greased and reinstalled with rear tailgate power window. All new weather stripping on the doors and tailgate, and the list goes on. So now that it is just about finished and it is currently my daily driver, I'm not really looking to sell it anymore, but if someone just had to have it and was prepared to offer me a LOT more than I have in it, well I suppose I could always find me a different toy.
 
OK, I started a whole new thread for the 69 Sport Satellite wagon. All of the pics and information is in the new thread. Good luck!
 
....bought a 69 wagon parts car for extra parts for it, etc. ......

@bad69bee: do you still have the 69 Parts car standing around???
I own a 69 Cornet Deluxe station wagon and I'm still looking for the long trim on the right side panel.
Perhaps I will have a little luck and your parts car is a Deluxe too!?!?!
 
I don't know the difference. My Coronet wagon is the 440 model and has side trim that I am not using. Do you have a pic of what you need? That might help me.

The long trim in the middel of the side panel is missing on the passenger side.
 
Ahhh, ok. None of my 3 cars have that style trim. Sorry.
 
Nice to see it on the road.

That's exactly what I would have done with it :)
 
Okay! So when do we start a new forum..... show us your 68,69,70 b-body wagons. I have one to show.
 
@fu64ry- "If you start it, they will post" lol

@ everyone else- Thanks for the compliments. Need to post some more updated pics. Maybe when fu64ry starts a new wagons post wherever the correct the spot is for wagon builders, I'll add them there.
 
Wow, for someone that is burned out on the car you sure have got alot done. Looking good. I love wagons. With that color that 6-pack hood would look awesome on there.
 
SWEET!!!! How did you get all those wagons together at once? That's awesome! I have to get more pics of my Coronet wagon to post on here, but we are expecting rain the next 3 days here in sunny Florida. So for now, here are some pics of that 69 Sport Satellite wagon that I am selling. I drove all the way up to GA to get the car just for the rear facing seat to put in mine. I put my cargo hatch in it to replace it. Letting it go cheap before I start doing any work to it. $1,669 wagon (1).jpg69 wagon (2).jpg69 wagon (3).jpg69 wagon (4).jpg69 wagon (5).jpg69 wagon (11).jpg69 wagon (12).jpg69 wagon (14).jpg69 wagon (15).jpg69 wagon (16).jpg69 wagon (17).jpg69 wagon (18).jpg00 like it sits in pics with cop car wheels and good tires, or will sell it for $1,200 with plain steel rollers and tires that hold air.
