I literally saved the R/T from being scrapped within 1
day!
Here is the deal how I got
the car. I used to have a 67 Coronet 440 Convertible
Floida car. I saw an ad in the Milwaukee Journal, 67
R/T parts or whole $800, (thought cool, make mine up
like an R/T conv!) I literally called the guy 20+
times before I actually made contact. he told me to
come look at the car, about an hour away. I got to
Milwaukee and couldnt find the guy's house. I finally
called him up and he said that's ok, He sold the
taillights interior, front clip to varios people. He
said if I felt like I could stop and see if there is
any other parts I need. At the last second I decided
to stop seeing as the night was shot already. Got
there and man, this thing was beautiful! No engine or
trans , but VERY SOLID! Perfect intererior. They were
going to chop it cause they cut the wheel wells years
ago and thought it looked like crap and was
unrepairable. It was his wifes car since 79 and this
was 96. She was talking about how much fun the car
was. I couldnt see it go. I told her she would have
this shell of something she really loved, and she
actually started to cry! I said what would it take to
get this car? Guy said give me my asking price and I
will refund the other people's money and hope they
dont kill me! HAHAHA! then it was mine! HE EVEN
delivered it! Anyway enough babbling.
Car is 67 R/T 440 floor shift automatic, very solid
Wisconsin Survivor. Will be the original white with
redlines and a red pinstripe. Red interior with high
back seats. special 440 engine code, whatever that
means. Performance suspension, all that cool stuff.
