New member here, I've been a mid 60's Mopar fan since 6th grade, Had a chance to pick up a 66 Coronet 440 with a 383 in good condition, Car was restored by one of the prior owners and did a good job. Body, pans and frame appears to be rust free, couple BB sized bubbles in the paint but nothing to be concerned about right now. Will leave the exterior as it is with exception of adding a 3.5 inch 67 hemi hood scoop. Looking forward spending some time here.

 

Welcome, that's one nice looking Coronet!

 

Nice!

 

Welcome!
Congrats on the very clean looking ride!

Minnesota is a big state, how far from Austin / Albert Lee are you?

 

I'm up in the Brainerd Lakes Area, I live in Nisswa. Both my parents grew up in southern Minnesota, I lived in the metro area before moving to Nisswa. I should ask where you're located in Iowa. I was born in Estherville and have family in Cedar Rapids, Storyville and Ames.

 

I'm 45 miles south of Austin 25 miles inside of Iowa.
I'd like to bring my grandson to Brainerd next year, he would like to see the top fuel cars run.

 

My windows rattle at my house when the TF & Funny Cars make a pass at BIR. Great idea, bring him up for the day on the Saturday of the NHRA National Event.

 

He thinks the cars that run alcohol at Cedar Falls Raceway are loud.🙂

 

Welcome to the site.... Awesome looking ride you have Jim !!! Just stunning to look at...
Jokingly Only thing good about that state is the "Back to the Fifty" event...lol people send me photos of that event all the time. It's one of those things on the bucket list !!!

 

Thanks, Yes, The Back to the 50's get together is one of those must see or do at least once. Nice venue too. State fairgrounds is perfect for the event.
