Missing hemi Coronet R/T vert found, or April fools?

[XS22J8R]

I saw this article this morning that was published yesterday, April 1. I know Diego and he's got a bit of a twisted/complex sense of humor, so the April Fools tag, and last line in the article, made me question if there is a prank aspect to this or if the missing US market 1970 hemi Coronet RT convertible has surfaced? I don't see where the prank angle could be in publishing this, so I am hoping it's true and we will be hearing more about the car soon! Not many clues from the pictures, other than it doesn't look to have an N96 hood that I assume would have been standard on a '70 hemi Coronet.
Of course my aging brain isn't working as well as it once did, so if it is a prank please share the clues!

Interesting timing as myself and a friend of.mine were talking about that car yesterday.


I'm really curious of this is a legit article

As it's my / our understanding talking to. A LOT of people that car is known to have been destroyed

"When the ClassicCars.com Journal is able to learn more about this very special car, we’ll update you, possibly next April."
There's your answer, right there.

the second comment was a curious on in that link
another "allegedly more educated" know nothing douche
defending mass media, probably drives a Prius too

With the US records so rare or vague
&/or 'allegedly' GG (beware) has the bulk of them
& he's into it only for the $$$,
seemingly he won't do ****, verify or decode it,
only you will wait for years if he even gets to it
&/or unless it's an extremely rare Hemi car (which it is "alleged")

Or does it have;
&/or if the body #s match, didn't it say;
"the build sheet was in the nether regions"
does that mean they got it ?
or just 'word salad/bs' to confuse the subjects/facts

Anyway not much good without the org. #s match Hemi engine & trans
just another rusted hull, if it is will have a None #s motor/trans
(only original once, just another restoration facsimile after that point anyway)
It may be something special
they didn't show any #s or proof of what they were writing about

No Vin, no Rad Core, no trunk-lip under seal or no firewall #s ?????
or did it have torque boxes welded in from the factory ?
did it have the Hemi K-member with the skid plate welded to it ?
they said the Fendertag was 'long gone'...

lots of stuff they didn't talk about
not telling approximately where the car is what state
or town or whatever, to add to any validity

Seems a bit like a phishing expedition
maybe just another tall tale,
to make it a Mecum Auction big Million $ seller like "the Ghost" was
we'll see if it gets a shitload of videos made about it
plastered on every MoPar site for the next 2 + years
& a huge false lie/tall tale (it was some street racer in stashed it away)
following the video & exposure, a movie made about it after the $$ sale too


God forbid it's a April Fool BS article
like the fake news is prone to do

time will tell
