Welcome to FBBO from Ontario. Nice '68 Coronet. I don't seem to see them as much as '67 or '69.

Fred, Welcome to the group, great choice, always loved the 68 Coronets....

Which brings us back to... @davidarch90 You've been here a year & a half, only seven posts & the only picture I've seen of your 68 is a little 1.5" x 1.5" avatar photo... That needs to change..... It's got a couple emblems that piqued my interest...

1 Wild R/T,
Thanks for noticing... The 68 was giving to me by my step-father-in-law. It is an un-restored hemi R/T, Auto. that he ordered new from Napa Valley Dodge. It has been parked in his Nor Cal hanger since the mid 90's. I took possession about 2 years ago and slowly got it back on the road. Only repairing what it needs to be a safe driver and not destroy the originality. I'm currently trying to get my Father-in-Law to join me here in Orange Co and drive together to Spring Fling in Van Nuys. He is a great guy and I would love to have him experience his car on the road again after 25+ years and he needs to tell it's stories to the Mopar crowd.

Awesome car!! And an Awesome Story!! I didn't think Spring Fling was a possibility for me this year due to work but that job that was gonna interfere with that weekend has been postponed... I might have a chance to come see it in person.... It would also be very cool to meet you & your dad.. Spring Fling is always a great time...
