So guys/gals.... just purchased this 1970 Coronet 500 4 door. We will be heading down to the Mass./Rhode Island state line to bring it to it's new home in Halifax....should have it back here around the third week of Oct.

Already have new washer bottle, dual chrome mirrors, fender turn signals, under hood clip set, under hood insulation, dual exhaust tip's (2.50"), two exhaust tip hangers, headrest chrome trim, gold Pentastar fender emblem and antenna!!! Seller states it will need the bottom of both quarters done so I'll order them soon.

Body and paint in the spring....can your say "daily driver".....!!!

My grandparent's car, exactly. I was 5 or 6 and thought that grill looked like my grandma's glasses.

Good score

...seller stated that the bottom of one quarter panel and in front on one rear wheels needs some attention. The car was repainted once some years ago and isn't the correct F-8 green so I want to bring it back to that....

@ Dave... a friend found it for sale on Craiglist and posted it on the 1970 Dodge Coronet page on Facebook. I was looking for a 4 door or wagon and this one fit the bill!

Cool car. I saw its twin get parted at Carlisle this year (I don't think it was a 500 though).

Bryan, looks like it's missing the "500" hood beak emblem?

Hey Brian............did you have to go through the new process for bringing a car back into Canada??? Am curious to see how onerous it is.

Nice car by the way, love 4 doors, especially wagons.

I was required to go through the "New" process for the Coronet. I can only 1/2 answer you tho as I haven't gotten the car home yet..........

I did need an ITN # and got one through a CDN Broker at a cost of $50.00 + tax. I needed the title #, the sellers' info, selling price.... my name and address and the approx date I'd be exporting it from the USA to get it. I then needed to email the USA border crossing with my full name, the ITN # and the VIN of the car.

So I'm travelling down to get it on the 22nd of this month....I'll update as I get go through the process...

Wish me luck....lol!

Bryan.

Congrats and good luck with the trip down and the trip back!

I saw that car on Craigslist here in MA, I believe, I thought it looked like a nice car, I just don't have the storage for any other B Bodies and I keep spending my money on my 69 Satellite wagon, so I never have it for other cars.

I look forward to seeing what you do with it!

Tnx for all the + comments.

I've purchased the following...4 new door handles, new antenna, two new outside chrome mirrors, new fender turn signals, new windshield washer container, new chrome exhaust tips & hangers (it's getting 2.5" duals) & new under hood insulation kit! Also, the 15" steel wheels I had on the Super Bee are going to be repainted F-8 green and the redline dog dish hubcaps and white wall tires will be replacing the stock 14"'s on it now. The rear springs will get rearched and under the hood cleaned and detailed. I have a spare trim piece for the front valance as well as a spare set of grilles to replace the broken one on the right side...........

Bryan.

Good eye, the trailer belongs to a good friend Robin McQueen (MagnumCharger)... I had it on loan. I'm located just outside of Halifax N.S.
