Need help on 67 coronet 500

[Norm reynolds]

I need some help here I just found a 67 coronet 500 in jersey
and I have never hear of one like this
The seller says the bobdy is good gold with black vinly top in good condition new tires on crager ss wheels Now the hard part He is telling me that it is a vervy rare car only 2000 built It has a slat 6 with factory a/c
and a beanch seat I have never heard of one I thought all 500 came with auto on the floor He is asking 2.000 for it

The rule with Mopar is that if you didn't order it, they didn't put it on the car. In 67 if the buyer didn't order the $16 console, you didn't get the auto on the console: you got it on the column.

There is difference between rare and valuable. It is entirely possible they made only 2000 Coronet 500s with a six cylinder, but that doesn't make it worth even what a 318 base model car would be worth. You might want to play that point up to him. A/C is nice though. If the body is OK I'd say $2000 is a good price. (less is always better) You can always drop a big block or hemi into it without a whole lot of trouble.

Steve I decided to pass on that one What I really want is 500 with auto on the floor with a 383 or best a 440 even a 361 would be good I know that I could take the six cylinder out but then I would have to round up all the parts. In the last few mouths I have been eyeing up a 59 Bonneville try power at my friend shop but it need to much work if I was younger I would be working on it But with my and my age and disability I would rather find one all done so I can enjoy it
It’s the first time that I ever heard of a coronet 500 with a six cylinder

norm,what kind of shape was the car in?? did it need full resto or was it a decent driver. i think i heard about this car being for sale.....

[Norm reynolds]

Don I did not get to see it Was to late in the day I was told the it was gold two door coronet 500 with a six cyl with a/c it also had crager ss wheels he was asking 2000 for it which was not to bad he said the boby was in good shape I just dont think I would be happy with the six cylnder
and I did not want a projuct car

It's my impression that the 500 came with a V8 standard. And, if it came with a /6 standard, I'd bet it would be much rarer than 2000 made.

Also, it's impossible to tell the numbers in combination of options. /6 or AC but not both together.

a friend of mine bought the car today,and its not bad original paint real 500 car bucket seats with a buddy seat air cond but no ps or pb go figure... one of 227 made! but who cares i know..........he likes it.
