Engine ROARED back to life. Idles great..PURRS LIKE A KITTEN. Absolutely NO smoke and NO hesitation. Will needs a carb rebuild, nd we recommend the gas tank be cleaned out. Comes with a NEW 6 volt battery and a generator (Real old school). Car goes into all gears real easily. Comes with the unique Power-Glide transmission. This is the system that combines clutch-shifting, nd handle-shifting to make the car go into gear... Brakes will need work before becoming road worthy, ut this is a GREAT PROJECT to drive while you restore her.
2 (of the 4) hubs on this classic Coronet still have the "L" for "LEFT HAND tighten" and "R for RIGHT HAND tighten" which were found on rims back in the 40's and 50's before everything became Left to Loosen and RIGHT to tighten. Forget the righty-tighty lefty-loosey...2 of the wheels are the opposite on this car.
Interior is good. It is missing a few small dash and trim pieces (as can be seen) here and there and some may need replacing. Will need an ignition switch. Seats have no holes and was reupholstered along with the interior doors and panels several years ago. The top fabric is good, ut needs a cleaning and a reattached zipper rear window. All bows look good, nd has only 1 fixable tear near the lower back...Top lifts up and down rather easily. Drivers door needs some hinges/pins. A piece of patina chipped off due to scraping against fender ORIGINAL ISLAND GREEN color, nd some small bubbles by the rear fender. Trunk is overall solid but does have a couple rust-throughs about the size of a 50 cent piece.
Through the years, odge has treated the Coronets as one of its most upscale models rivaling the Chargers in the muscle car 1960's and 1970's selling for very high dollar. This is more like a museum piece....You can own one of the.....1ST EVER CORONETS that ever rolled off the assembly line in 1949.
