i got one, there was a 65' coronet and it needed some work. I saw it online and went to go look at it and it was love at first sight. My dad said it might be too much work but I didnt care. We went home so my parents could think about it. He had it listed at $950. I called the next week and he said some guys were on their way right then to buy it. Sad story.









oh i forgot to mention that I burnt rubber and beat the guys there and offered the guy $800. SOLD, my new ride. no regret.

 

Little cross roads callled Lecta Ohio, I look up the hill beside the road at the cows in the pasture, and spot a bronze 69 road runner sitting in the middle of all them. Park, climb over the fence, up the hill, and about pee'd myself when I saw HEMI on the hood scoops. Checked the engine, 383 , checked the numbers on the dash, RM21J, Oh YEA!... No rust, car had never been painted, just aged. I chased the owner down, and made a deal to buy the car for $600 (1985). Left to go get the money, which took about 3 hours), and passed the car on a trailer as I was on my way back to pick it up. Someone else had found it in that short a time, and bought it.
