66 Coronet 500 convertible with Hemi - 09/18/20 03:18 AM

Looking for any information on this car Just bought it and trying to figure out what is done to engine it has a 66 Hemi, 66 block out of 67 car C426 . It was bought out of Roanoke Illinois. I am thinking someone has to know it, maybe. Going to get it up and driving again and use it as a kind of rat driver , paint is crap but body seems pretty good.runs pretty good but needs carbs done has a reverse manual valve body . Just trying to figure out engine it has a thin balancer, thinking possibly direct connection? Anyway maybe someone know it ,, Thanks

Original hemi car? Very cool. I'd rather that than a hemi e-body convertible...

I would do just what it needs. New top, The normals like fluids and filters changed, brakes hoses and belts, and of course tires and drive the hell out of it. looks fun

Looks good, I like this condition. It appears to be a non hemi body. But that’s just fine doesn’t matter, just as fun.

It’s a G 383 car with what seems to be a 67 k frame and engine, trans is a direct connection race trans I guess, it had a Golfer report done on it at some point and that’s what was noted ,,changed out plugs, oil and stared adjusting carbs but I need to rebuild them I think.
