Picked this project up about a month ago and wanted to make a post here. It is a 1966 coronet 500 Hemi 4 speed car originally. Its GG1 green metallic, black interior, bucket seat, console 4 speed car. I purchased the car out of Hatfield, Pa, and it has license plate and inspection sticker on the car from 1979.
Car at some point was owned by Georgian and Michael Karnis, I would assume the last time it was tagged in 79 in PA.
The car sold new at Pioneer Dodge in San Jose, California, got that information from Chrysler Historical and our very own Dan Pausch. I don't know what time frame that it left California and made its way to Pa, but I can say that the original Hemi engine, trans, and rear axle were changed out while still in San Jose. It had a drivetrain change out to a 1964 383 HP with 4 speed and rear axle from the 1964 B body. The reason that I was able to know that is the special driveshaft and adapter that they used to make it work with the ball and trunnion was made at Cox and Sprauge driveline in San Jose. SO with that being said if anyone might know any history on the car please PM me here. I would love to find out all that I could on the car.
Thank you, Matt
