I am trying to find the history of this 1967 Coronet 500 273 904 I bought from Herb´s Towing in Drexel Hill PA 5 years ago. Drexel Hill is in the Philadelphia metro area. Herb´s had bought the car at an auction. The only thing he knew was that the car had been owned by an old gentleman close by Philadelphia, in Springfield PA, who had collected several Coronets and stored them together. His widow put the car(s) up for auction. So, I´d appreciate any information about the past of this car. The only clue I have about it´s past was that I found a connection with a railroad company in the car, so possibly some previous owner worked there. Also of interest were two small red lights mounted in front of the radiator wall. I have been told that these were popular way back to impress the girls. I have nicknamed her "The Queen of Drexel Hill" and she gets treated accordingly.
