1966 Dark Green Plymouth Belvedere II
 
This was my second car. I bought it when I was 17 from a local mopar guy. Other than a couple of rust spots on the quarters the car was in excellent shape, in and out. There was only one rip in the front seat drivers side. It was a 273 4-barrel with a nice sounding custom exhaust, everything was bone stock and it had almost no options except for some special seat material and front disc brakes. It was a great running car and I used it as my daily driver for maybe a year until I totalled it. I had brakework done and they installed new rubber hoses on the front and curved them outward, which caused the tires to rub on them when turning so eventually I lost my brakes and went headlong into a pole. i think the pole recieved more damage than my car but insurance companies hate these old beasts so they totalled it. However I did get double the money that I paid for it so at least one good thing came out of it.

Do you still have it? It would make for one hell of a drag car project.

no I traded it plus a couple hundred bucks for a complete bore and rebuild of my dad's 318 for his 70 'Cuda. I'm definately going to keep in touch with the guy hopefully if I still have his number. I would love to see it finished. He really wanted my Coronet so maybe Ill trade him so he can deal with its problems and I can cruise in a non-problematic car lol.

Found some pictures of the interior. Don't worry about the trash on the floor, I had just eaten lunch in it and didn't have a garbage can and the little pieces of glass were from the bottom of the door when I took the panel off and I guess the window had broken at one time and was replaced. The interior was 100% original and perfect except for the front seat driver side. It shows the odd seat material option as stated before. It's h311a expensive to replace that too. VERY lol

how did the car get totalled with only that damage?

SixtySevenDodge 04-04-2009 07:36 PM

insurance companies dont wanna pay for stuff they gotta find on ebay. They can't just get stuff from a manufacturer. I bought it back for like 500 bucks and then sued the shop that worked on it for endangerment or something and got twice as much as I paid for it.
