The car has been in the family for 30+ years and is priceless to me. But I wonder what it is worth. I have scouted around a bit but it is beyond me to speculate. Seemingly similar cars are priced dramatically differently.
My Coronet is a '58 Spring Edition sedan. She has 71,000 original miles and is a true survivor. All original, paint, engine, and interior.
Paint is good but not great, some scratches, one shallow spot on the hood.
Interior is magical, complete and pristine. Probably the highlight of the car. Only the headliner is sub par, and there is a single upholstery tear on a back door post.
325 Poly/Wedge motor is rebuilt and runs like it is new. 2-barrel carb, rated at 250 HP. Compartment and motor are clean but not detailed.
Transmission is 2 speed push button.
Spring Edition means different steering wheel, chrome package, and awesome exhaust tips.
She is completely original and entirely complete.
My '58 Coronet has had seatbelts installed front and back. It also has a modern radio hanging under the dash and modern speakers, although it still has the original radio also. Everything else is completely original, including the paint and the interior. Does my car qualify as a true "survivor"?
I am looking for a chrome plater for my 67 Coronet 440 Convertible. I need to get the chrome parts at the bottom of the vent windows re-done. Ideally, I would like to drop off and pick up - so in Philly or near Philly would be good. I live in Williamstown, NJ.
Can you guys recommend anyone? For me turn around time and good quality are very important. The parts are in good shape (no dents/holes), but need to be re-done.
Any old timers remember the lady owner of "Honey", a 69 Bee out of Florida? She was on here a short time but I think her story might be fairly well known.
I knew the car had been sold and had left Florida.
I thought that it would be fun to have a thread here in this forum dedicated to interesting weather and outdoor pictures. Winter snow? Summer heat? Rain clouds? Beautiful sunrise or sunsets? Spring flowers? Water or mountain pictures? It's all good here!
Below are some pictures showing some beautiful blue skies with equally beautiful white clouds outside my home here in Phoenix that I took yesterday with my Cannon PowerShot SX40 HS digital camera. The contrast in colors was really exceptional and with temps in the high 70's it made for a fantastic day indeed!
