i hope you can help me with this. it would very greatful counting whit you!.
Welcome Sebastian, it sounds like you have a really unusual car.
Can you get us some pics? We love them, but more importantly, we need to see what kind of trim your car came with. Cars made outside of the US were made very differently. So we will need to see what your car came with and then maybe we can figure out how to help.
Good luck with your restoration, there will be a bunch of us excited to see and hear what you have.

Hello Sebastian, welcome to the site. For replies to your inquires I would suggest you post some pictures or your car. Take pictures of where on the car the parts are missing. To track down information on the history of the car, please post the serial number, it will be the most important piece of information.
The people here on the site are very knowledgeable, and I am sure many will offer to help. Some may even be able to help you find missing pieces for your car.
Good luck!!

Hi Sebastian, your car looks like a regular 67 Coronet 500 SE 4dr. In the US they came with wide side trim running down the whole length of the car.
I can't tell by the old picture (is that you?) if there was side trim on there then. I did notice that the grill was different then though. The correct US grill would have been the one you have on there now.
Do you know where the car was built?

i think you refer to the one on the pic... my father remove it.. long time ago..also remove the vinil roof, do you know what kind of material they are?. i have the number of manufacturing i'll see where it was made... (is in a little aluminium plate), about the engine, there's a big question, the engine ir a 3.8lt, 6 on line and say, industria Argentina (argentina industry), i think is the same engine that uses the Dodge Dart... but my father says that in the time he bought it, already carrys that engine.. and the old owner never change it..
