A 1967 Coronet project I'm going to be working on & off of for my friend Chris, who doesn't know that he is getting it back.
Back story is almost 4 years ago a friend of mine down in Georgia found out his infant son, just 5 months old, needed a heart transplant due to him being born with Dilated Cardiomyopathy. Fortunately his son had a life-saving heart transplant in Dec 2013 and has been doing reasonably well since (last heart cath a couple weeks ago showed good function and no rejection / still struggling w/ left side movement from a stroke during surgery).
This Coronet project sat in his garage awaiting the day when father & son (plus older sister's) could work together at rebuilding it as a way of strengthening their bond. Well, in July of 2015 he let me know he was going to have to sell the car as he realized that he'd never be able to work on the car like he wanted (nor the funds) and I told him I'd bring it up north to sell it for him. Selling it really wasn't something I had in mind as my oldest son & I wanted to fix it up into a decent cruiser and give it back to him from the time he talked of selling it off.
Chris wanted it to be a brilliant blue with the black bench seat interior to be restored back to stock-ish with a few upgrades - stereo / added gauges / working A/C and go 4-wheel disc brakes with 16" or 17" rims. The engine he has for is is a 383 that I plan on fuel-injecting. Is it going to be perfect - no - but it is going to be something that if he hits the swap meets and finds a better piece it'll be a simple bolt-on.
So hopefully you'll follow along as time allows me to upload pics and we go about making this the cruiser he has wanted.

This is the part of our hobby that most of the time goes untold, friends helping friends and is the best part of our automotive hobby.
Your buddy a lucky man and picks his friendships well.

I don't have much if any 67 Coronet stuff. I do know where there are some parts if needed. If I have any general drive train or suspension parts you can use let me know as I may be able to donate some stuff...

Thanks!

Thanks for the offer, may have to take you up on it. Fortunately I have a 66 2dr Coronet 440 in my little salvage yard that I'll be able to cherry pick off of for parts too.

I'm also very fortunate that my best friend, who painted my A4 platinum silver A12 Road Runner, is assisting me by doing the paint and body and I will tap him to assist in engine assembly too. He has many many years building late model V8 modified dirt track engines.

Not trying to be a bummer here, but you need to check legal about ownership.. You can bet someone will lien it or force its sale, due to the money owed ( assuming here) on his childs medical bills....

Put in someone else's name ( parent?)

that never happened when my youngest was born four months premature. after four and a half months in the hospital, the bill JUST for the hospital stay was over $700,000.what our insurance didn't cover we paid on what we could until they were satisfied.and I had two old mopars at the time.
your doing a great thing for your friend, that says alot about you.
