I ma on the process of repainting and repairing my R/T. The quarter panel at the door jamb (where the B pillar would be on a coupe) split and a stress crack about two inches formed. The deck lid is going to be replaced as it is mostly plastic and may need a new power bulge hood which is next to impossible to find. Quarters are being refined and moved in and the lips on the them trimmed (too wide). I will post more pictures in the next few weeks.

 

Engine bay cleaned up and repainted:

























Single stage clear coat needs buffed and all the trim pieces, bumpers and vinyl top need to be put back on. All the chrome has been replated and all the stainless trim has been polished. Grille and headlight bezels are anodized as well as the tail light panel. Windows need to be put back in and put the stripe around the trunk and quarters.

 

looks nice. I have mine done now except putting in the motor and 4sp. hopefully get that in during the summer. i see you have headers on now. do you still have the exhaust manifolds that were on it? they came off my 68 500 and i would be interested in buying them back.

thanks
Brian

 

Sorry, I sold the manifolds on ebay. I have to post pictures on the Coronet R/T as it was completed in May 2013.

 

The first car show with my twin brothers' 2013 Super Snake. His Shelby has 950 horsepower with 720 at the rear wheel. I realized the fratzog emblem was upside down on my Coronet after I took the pictures and it is fixed.

 

That thing is damn sexy

 

Thanks.

 

I want to make love to this beast. Thanks for sharing!

 

It has a 3" exhaust so that may be tricky. Thanks for the compliments.

 

Time to upgrade the engine this fall. I have stage II ported Indy EZ heads, port matched Indy dual plane intake, J.W. Converters 10" 2800 stall converter, Comp cams flat tappet cam shaft and a Holley 950CFM Ultra HP carburetor:



















Hope to have the parts installed and dyno tuned by the end of October 2014.
