Now that is nice. A 68 Coronet is dear to me.
My Dad bought a 68 R/T new and he bought my sister a 500 a few years later.
Very unique 383 2 bbl with a 4 speed.And it's not green !

Odd option combo indeed.

Would have used a the "love" button, but "like" was all that was available.

Is that the original white color or did you change it?? If original what paint code is it?? Looks great.

Paint code WW1 but I went with a chrysler bright white since after a typical Body Shop half *** job. I ended up blowing it all back apart and repainting it. A complete bolt by bolt restoration %90-95 of the bolts are all correct ones with correct markings.
The only thing I changed is Rims tires Flowmaster mufflers and Dual exhaust. Also added a factory in-dash tach
only 22000 miles on it all the headlights are original 1967

That's a great story. Sorry your mom didn't see the final result. I hope you can pass the car on to your kids when the time is right.
