68 Coronet 440 in central Indiana

[WildCat]

This is not my car nor do i know the owner. It was sitting in a yard and i snapped these pictures


68 Coronet 440 for sale and thought someone here might like to see it

I can see some body work from the road

if anyone was interested I could look at it for you and report back.

well after getting some PM's should have put the area code in here

I'm not sure but it should be (317) but it could be (765) it is close to the area where they change

for those wanting to know where the car is, it is located just east of Mooresville, Indiana on state road 144

4100 bucks really isnt that bad for a 68 B-body, if that car was here for sale in that condition it would be bought imediatly. looks to be in decent shape

That is nice. I think the 440 is the model. It probably only has a 318. Check into it for us if you have the time. Probably an auto car on the column? Bench seat? That'a very good price and won't last long. Hide and watch. See if he will jew and if he's into trades. Thanks for the pics. Where is it located? What's the area code. I was going to call but need a code. Thanks

Single exhaust, so probably a 318 or a 383 2V. Did the /6 exhaust exit on driver's or passenger's?

looks clean

 

[WildCat]

yes the Coronet 440 is the model

It is a basic car from what i saw, single exhaust and flip out rear windows. I was on the road and the car behind a 6' high fence when I took the pictures

Yes it looks good to me, not a 68 coronet fan or I might be interested in it even to just flip.

I bought a 67 Coronet 440 convertible in the mid 90's and this was the 1st Mopar the corvette guy had bought. I think he thought it was a 440 motor car when he bought it, that one I wish I could have kept

Just got off the phone with Adam

he has owned the car for 3 years, it is a slant 6 with auto

not sure what all goes with the car but
he has new 1/4's
a 440 and 727
8 3/4 rear

said it runs and drives but needs some brake work

give Adam a call if interested

317-750-2948

said it was green with green interior and someone painted it blue

Man that reminds me so much of my dad's 68 440 4dr cop car in U1 Light Blue Poly.

 

[WildCat]

I went and check the car out

It has odd rust

I think it is a very restoreable car, or could be driven as is, clone as SuperBee.

here are the pictures I took today

 

[WildCat]

couple more shots

Hope this helps those interested in their decision whether to make the trip to purchase this vehicle

He has some parts but I didn't see them

I'm heading out of town in the AM for 4~5 days

Yes it was green and has green interior, now painted blue exterior with green interior

bench seat with seat cover on front, crack in dash pad

window latches broke on both side 1/4 windows

gas tank replaced and held on with perforated strap and it isn't th right one, gas neck thru trunk floor

paint code is TT1

took picture of fender tag but forgot to put on macro, so it didn't come out

funny thing, we are looking at a house just down the road. The dad of the guy selling the car built the house for his uncle in the mid 80's. Talked for more than 45 min about house before I ever went and looked at the car, then talked more about the house, looked at his old buick Newport Hill Climb car and checked out some of his stuff in the building and behind it.

oh man that car would be sold realllly fast up here in BC Canada

Wildcat: Thanks for the pics. I spoke with Adam yesterday and his description didn't do the rust justice. He did mention the wrong gas tank. He said he would try and email me pics but you took care of that. Thanks. With that much rust it maybe over priced for my likeing. Nice 50 footer. He did say OBO. It does run but he said brakes needed work. He and his dad are partners on it and Adam said he might let it go for maybe $3500. Definately a Super Bee clone. Worth more cloned than in original configuration. Thanks for the info Wildcat
