What a great site you have here! I just bought a numbers matching 69 Coronet 500 H code in need of restoration, 76k miles on her. She's from PA like my first car that I drive over here, a 66 Dart GT HiPo. I will be sure to ask all of you good people for lots of advice and help.
Luckily for me I have a brother near Albany NY with a 65 Satellite he's restored from the bottom up, he helped get the first item I need: The 69 Dodge Service Manual. Wish me luck, I'll need it. -Erik1920
Hi Erik! Welcome to the forum! Great looking car you have. We love pictures; so as you restore it, be sure to post lots and lots of pictures. If you need anything at all, just start a new thread and ask. Plenty of members will answer.
BTW... Richard will be pleased that the first item you purchased was a manual.
1975 Coronet Brougham 360- 4 barrel, auto, 355 sure-grip. only 40,000 miles

Welcome Erik, that is a nice looking 500 you have there, even has the original black paint on the lower parts. Fratzog beat me to it, but I was thinking the same thing on your service manual Richard will be proud. Keep us posted on your progress.

Thank you so much for the welcomes You can check my album for some pics. I am wondering what the time frame here might be. Realistically about 3 years I think but I hope for only 2. Firstly and most importantly: Any part taken off the car will be kept. I will modify her here and there yet stick to bolt-on options.
Wish me luck, I'll need it. -Erik1920
