57 Coronet

[67440Dodge]

Friend of mine that owns a gas station asked me to stop down, he had a car he needed some advice on. Someone brought in a 57 Coronet to get the brakes adjusted, and in the process they found a coolant leak that turned into a cracked head. The pictures don't do it justice, it's a beautiful car to see in person. Spoke to the owners of the car, they had just purchased it from California, it had recently undergone a full body off restoration. I'm trying to get them to bring it to Carlisle this year.

Thanks again to 65RBDodge for digging thru his stash and coming up with the cylinder head for them.

It's got a 361 Rich.. it's not original to the car, its a 61 block I believe.

I gave them the URL for the website, I hope they sign up. Pretty cool couple of guys who have an excellent collection of cars.

Very nice shape Coronet

Like everyone noticed just the dash alone is so cool, Chrome and steel all the way

I remember when those cars first came out, I thought, Ugly, now they really look good, getting older, I guess!!!!!!!!!!
