7949] My buddy is getting ready for his first time out with the Coronet. Put race slicks on this weekend,bumped up fuel pressure,checked and double checked all the vital stuff,think we are ready to go. Built 2 1/2 yrs ago just now getting it to the track. Hope to do low 8's or high 7's.He is nervous as hell,which is understandable,just don't wanna tear anything up,but thats the risk you take. He has a 70 Bee under restoration now,that will be his weekend driver,be good to have someone to cruise with. Test and tune next Friday,and if car is doing good,race on SaturdayBeer

If anybody is going to take the time and effort to restore their Coronet's interior, then a new dashboard pad will be in order. The reproduction dash pads that I've listed below are produced by the Canadian based company called P.G. Classics which many of you have heard of. What some may not have known, is that they also were a major parts supplier to the well known American based company called BE&A Restoration Parts located in Ohio. I can say that I've purchased one of the 1966-67 Black dash pads from BE&A for my 1966 Coronet 500 that was supplied by P.G. Classics and can say that it's one of the nicest reproduction parts that I've ever purchased! These restoration dash pads look as nice as any nos dash pad I've ever seen and are priced very fairly. They are made with high quality materials and use a closed cell foam padding that will hold up much better than the foam padding that Chrysler used back in the 1960's and 1970's.

I'm going to concentrate on the 1966-1967 B-Body dash pads here, but P.G Classics also reproduces dash pads in most of the original factory colors for the 1966-1967 Dodge Chargers which use a different dash pad than all of the other 1966-1967 B-Body cars and they also offer most factory colors for the one year only 1968 B-Body cars as well as most factory colors for all of the 1969 and 1970 B-Body cars.

Hi, my headlights are pretty dim, so before winter arrives I thought I would upgrade to some good headlights. Recommendations anyone?

Bolts to the left front of the exhaust manifold. Does it hold the ignition wires back? 7935]

Getting my ducks in a row. Registered for the show under Coronet Registry club, reserved a room, and made a donation for the site and tent. Now I just have to wait to make an upgrade to the Coronet and all will be right with the world.

Hello Everybody!


For 68-69 i have read that the caps for the battery was green for the slant six, 273 and 318

426 Hemi had red caps. 383 both yellow or green depending on 2 or 4 barrel

Is this info valid also for the 66 models

Should my original battery have green caps for the 318 Poly engine??

1969 1/2 super bee A12. The lettering on the hood scoop, does it slant with the scoop towards the front or does it slant away from the scoop towards the back? I have seen both ways. Does anyone have a pic of a survivor A12 hood? Here are the 2 examples. So the green car or the orange car?7926]7927]
