I wasn't trying to be funny, just saying how nice it looked. I am amazed when a car looks perfect and impressed with what went into getting it that way, but I rather look at cars you can tell are driven allot and needing LIL here or allot there.
Just loved like yours

Hi there AzA12. Yes, I think you are right that there is no stamp for the 330 hp engine. But what an engine the stock engine is - she sure goes. Not a lot of difference between the 330 horse and the 335 horse; a windage tray, slightly different cam, the valve springs and possibly the carb. It is nice that they have the same block.
Have fun with your beautiful looking convertible.4850
oh mines loved alright! I think I have most of the pieces I need to put it together and put paint on it but honestly I'm not in a rush to do it. I get a lot of looks, offers and questions etc which is kind of nice. Besides that I know once i change it, its not original anymore.
That car was loved by the original owner...and by me....just the way it is and that's the way i like it.
I have a '53 Coronet Convertible that my mom purchased new. Fully restored w/ number matching Red Ram and GyroMatic. 7556]7557]
A few pics of my '53. 7558]7559]
That is a nice car, Scott!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That '53 is Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet !!!!
Very nice Coronet! I'm wondering though, are the wire wheels original? Beautiful car regardless.
