Have you ever noticed when you take your beloved Coronet out instead of your daily driver to the auto parts store it takes 45 minutes longer to get out of the lot because everybody asks........What year is that car? Never seen one of those before....etc...
Gotta love it!!!

Don't you mean a 440 HEMI? I know, same difference and boy oh boy have I heard about the infamous super rare quasi-legendary 440 HEMI! One guy told me once I didn't know what I was talking about so I told him he was....you get the picture. But, yes, rolling into a crowded parking lot with a Coronet elicits varying responses and most are good, some entertaining and others...well just opinions.
