Nice Red color.
Is that a paint detail on the rear quarter indents?

Hi Don, Those are trims from a 66 Coronet. First owner had them installed at the dealer when car was new. He liked the look of them.
I get a lot of questions about them at car cruises..

Only picture I got of mine before getting it in the garage. Haven't gotten it running yet so it's hard to get in and out for pics. Lower quarters are the worst spots on the car but I believe enough is left to patch. Floors,rails,rockers,wheel wells all solid. Some small bubbles in the doors that aren't through yet. It's been a long stalled project kind of stuck on the backburner.

I guess I did forget to add any details. Let my youngest decipher the fender tag. Born on September 2nd 67,bright red metallic, white roof stripe, console, ,AM radio, tinted windshield, white & black interior,318 2brl automatic with 2.94 gears and whitewalls. Production date seems kind of late in the year unless it was interpreted wrong but listed as 927. Completely undecided on how to build it, between a day 2 car and something more modern with FI and larger diameter wheels. Picked up some basic parts to go through to get it running again to make it easier to work on but just having a hard finding the motivation to get on it much.

[67charger383]

Big project (mostly because bodywork) almost done mechanically restoring and have the engine on a stand.

Building it as a late '70s era hot street machine.

I'm not doing any modifications that can't easily be undone and am keeping all of the factory parts in storage.

8-3/4 with 4.11 gears, 3800lb Direct Connection SS springs

Cragar/Weld Starwire 30 wheels 15x12 rear 15x7 front

12-1 compression 383 with a Weiand tunnel ram, Milodon gear drive, TRW L2293 pistons, MSD ignition, Milodon oiling system, 440source roller rockers and Racer Brown solid roller cam

Nitrous ready

I could rebuild the 727 and have to run a 5000+ stall converter and RMVB but I most likely will convert to a 4 speed

I am the second owner. I bought it from the original owner who let it rot behind a barn in rural NJ for 28 years

Wish AMD would make quarters it's solid otherwise.

If you're on Facebook look up Joe Phillips Restoration. He hand forms 66/67 quarters. They are pretty sweet!

Joe also made me a set of rear lower "quarter" panels that fit great.

I'd like to have him make me lowers too. Would really like to fix the rust but then fake in the original paint look. I don't want to a complete.
