What did you do to your Coronet this Week ....??? - 67440Dodge - 04-22-14 shush.. next thing you'll be telling em is I got a hairdryer for it.. What did you do to your Coronet this Week ....??? - 67r/t4speeder - 04-23-14 Mopars & Missiles Wrote:Went to the local License branch today to register and plate my Super Bee for the first time in 31 years. Not a big deal for most, but it has been a long, long, time since I've driven this car and it has become a top priority for me to be able to enjoy this car once again before I run out of 'gas'.Nice going love to a pic or two What did you do to your Coronet this Week ....??? - ws27 - 04-23-14 harold prentice Wrote:I've been looking far & wide for a replacement throttle cable for my '66 Poly 2bbl. I did find one in Las Vegas for $150. U.S. & an outfit in Washington state offered to make me one for free if I sent them my original (seems it's a one year only cable & they wanted to use mine for a model). Neither option worked for me so I came up with a "plan b". Back in the 70's, I worked as a motorcycle mechanic for a few years and it was very routine for us to make cables from scratch using an assortment of bulk supplies so it occurred to me that I might as well make my own for the 'Net. I was able to purchase a length of 2mm cable and a package of cable nipples for the grand total of $19.25 Cdn. The "new" cable is back on the car & seems to work just fine so, for anyone with a similar cable dilemma, I'd advise you to give it a try. Nice work Harold, I still can't believe you can't find one at a fair price. What did you do to your Coronet this Week ....??? - 67r/t4speeder - 04-23-14 I'm in love with your car, WoW!!! keeping the whitewalls ? Yes ?? What did you do to your Coronet this Week ....??? - 67r/t4speeder - 04-23-14 You did a fine job. What is the sticker on windshield in original photo? What did you do to your Coronet this Week ....??? - Racer Brown - 04-23-14 I think the whitewalls add a good touch, nice car!! What did you do to your Coronet this Week ....??? - Drag-Net - 04-24-14 That is a great looking bee. Two thumbs up on the white walls. What did you do to your Coronet this Week ....??? - harold prentice - 04-27-14 Ok, so last week I snuck the Coronet out for it' first drive and had a great time - took a buddy with me (he has a '40 Dodge D16 Special Deluxe sedan) and headed for our favourite wing joint. Today, the sun was shining temps in the double digits & all was well with the world. Good time to take my wife out for her first "official" ride of the season. Car running great, retrofitted clock working perfectly, newly sealed intake not leaking, new Magnums looking awesome - couldn't be better. Decided to go check out a fishing derby in Nearby Peterborough and enjoyed a large box of french fries while watching the anglers. Headed home and, while doing my post drive clean up, discovered that a sea gull had decided to dump it's dinner from the last three or four days on my trunk lid! Great coverage - a 5" diameter pile that radiated out to splatter the fenders on both sides AND the back window. Hope this isn't an omen as to how the rest of the season is going to be........or is that supposed to be good luck?? Sorry, no pics, I was in too big a hurry to clean it off before it caused any damage to the paint. What did you do to your Coronet this Week ....??? - 67r/t4speeder - 04-27-14 That was its way of saying you have the best looking car in the lot.
