You said, "It's far from perfect." To which I replied (out loud, mind you) "But perfect from a-far"

A great sunny day to tell Bill's story it's crazy how car's bring people together and leave their mark with it.

Sorry to hear about your friend. Nice 67 Coronet when I was younger I had a chance to buy a 67 R/T Coronet and to this day I kick myself for not buying it.

In memory of Bill , didn't know him but ill think of him. Cheers Sir.

Had a 66 Coronet in the late 70's ....got it cheap because the 318 poly had thrown a rod. Took the 383 Magnum and 4spd/posi from a wrecked Super Bee and swapped them in. Don't think it even cost me $600.... the good old days.

6x cancer survivor myself. Yes, it very much sucks...sorry to hear of your friends' passing. As Norm MacDonald said once though - you don't lose to cancer. It dies with you. So that's a tie....🙂 On a more cheerful note, I have managed to bring my own Mopar back from the dead during all the recoveries from this and that medical crap over the years (poorly made videos available on my channel), so there's that I suppose. Anyways, I'm still here and so is Fred the GTX and I guess that counts for something, right? - Ed on the Ridge

I think that counts for a lot, Ed, and I’m glad you’re still here winning with us. Fred sounds awesome! I absolutely love that dark red color too. That has long been my dream paint color for various classic Mopars. My Charger’s repaint is a little lighter, but it’s supposed to be a darker shade similar to that, and will be again some day if I have my way. Anyway, thanks for being here.

Kudos to Bill for doing what he did to that car. One of the best designs to come from Detroit. Had 67 500. Great car. Cancerous suck. Lost my best man to it.

Beautiful car Bill had, sorry to hear of his passing.

I had a green 2 door 67 383. 2 barrel dark green really nice shape in around 1986..it was a coronet 440 model also there beautiful cars

Drove one just like this one all through high school.

There was one in the family way back sans the 440 badge. It was gold with black interior. As a kid I admired the styling.

I can't believe I missed this video previously. I love 66-67 coronets. Thanks for sharing this jewel with us. This and the black one you also showed would be such a nice pair to have side by side in the garage.

Wow - takes me back..my first car was a ‘67 Coronet 440 hardtop - 318 automatic, but light yellow with a black interior. Had to fix major rust and paint it in ‘75 - called every wrecking yard in the Buffalo and Rochester NY Yellow Pages (you youngin’s have no idea…) looking for front fenders and found three. Put Magnums and white walls on it after the paint was done. God, I loved that car - still have the left over front fender, all the trim and the Magnums in my loft. For the next one…

Well, I'm only 10 months behind seeing this. I think it's a nice looking Coronet! I hope Bill enjoyed it.

Another great video DDG! I had the Plymouth version of this one, same color but a 383 two barrel , sold it to buy my first house. I need to find another.

I fell for the "Just adjust the slop out of the box" thing once too. Had the same effect.

You are the Doctor for any Mopar I would own.

To Bill 🍺

It reminds me of the Coronet 440 my parents had when I was a child. Same color, body style and 440 trim level. Our car had the 273 V8, automatic transmission, but no factory air.

You are right. Never get involved selling someone elses car

Beautiful car! The 67’ coronet RT has always been one of my faves. 370hp is a really stout 318 by the way! I think Bill did a pretty good job of loving that car back to glory, I hope whoever ends up with it does the same. Great video Jamie, Bill sounds like one of those friends that was a challenge and probably made you grow from it😅!

Nice Coronet, I'd love to own it. Live it channel, I live about 10 miles east of Salem Oregon. I know you live in Washington state. I own a 1966 Coronet 440 that now has a 1969 imperial 440 that's been warmed over, I've had it 50 years now. Runs 12.50's at Woodburn dragstrip through the mufflers with slicks.

thanks for the video sweet car would love haveing one people suffering through cancer is the worst do what you can for them

Well done Sir.

Condolences to Bill and his family, cool car

Having a conversation with yourself is fine , disagreeing with yourself not so much , Anyhoo lovely Coronet , sad Bill passed before he got it where he wanted it

I enjoy seeing you revive the patient .

Went through cancer myself a few years ago. 12 months of surgery and treatment was hell. Wouldnt recommend it. Bought myself a 71 Satellite Sebring as a therapy car. Rare sight in Australia. Sorry to hear about Bills passing. Hopefully the car ends up in caring hands.

I think this comment got lost in the ether.

I lost my dad to renal cancer and inherited the one new car he ever bought, a 66 Coronet 500 SE crew cab with a 273. I rebuilt it with stock, flat top Egge pistons and a mild Isky cam. The pistons suck because they are low in the deck. Runs great but compression sucks. I'm contemplating blowing it apart again and installing high compression pistons. I still run a stock 2bbl but I have a factory 273 4bbl intake on standby as soon as I find a decent AFB with the small throttle plates. Pertronix replaced points and that helped compensate for a worn distributor shaft bushing. I'd be happy with 250 hp vs the 200 it has.
