  • Well Done Mark and crew. I love that you've built your hometown up and didn't leave. Your community must be proud of the work you guys do!

    This is a really cool car. i actually have a 1970 Coronet R/T convertible that has a few of the same codes, VIN# WS27U0G, FT6, J45, R22 ...440HP 4BBL, console automatic, 8.75 3:23 Sure-Grip. i have a little bit of a build sheet that was under the drivers seat. i think the car that you featured here was in a book of other rare Hemi Mopars that were documented. Thanks for showing this car to us. Buzz.

    Awesome job guys, makes me miss my old 71 Charger SE 383 Magnum, it was painted factory with the Lemon Twist yellow with the halftop vinyl roof and factory rally wheels, when they came out with the 7 digit lic plate in Washington, I was lucky enough to get the plates in yellow that said "CHARGER" I was so proud of those. I belonged to the "MOPAR MUSCLE CLUB OF AMERICA" and went to many Mopar meets with that Charger, they wrote it up in their news letter as one of the "Prettiest Chargers of that year they had ever seen". Man was I proud!!! When I got that car it was in really bad shape. I was only 17, but I had some good friends in the body repair business and we basically restored it, luckily the quarter panels were flawless but the passenger door was creased in the middle from top to bottom and the subframe was also creased, like someone slid it sideways and took out a 4x4 post with the door, the motor was shot so I found a true 71 440 HP motor out of a 1971 Dodge Polara Washington state Patrol car that was wrecked and sitting in a wrecking yard, rebuilt it and slid it under the hood, I worked in an auto repair shop at the time so I did all the suspension and alignment work myself, it sat low and looked so mean, and boy was she fast and furious. sadly after owning it for 13 years and selling it to a good friend he was driving home in it after work and somone pulled out in front of him, to avoid hitting them he locked it up and pitched it sideways right into a tree stump hitting the stump between the drivers door and fender wrapping it around that stump, the firewall was accordianed in 6 inches and the window piller was pushed straight up and down buckling the roof, the gap between the pass door and fender was 4 inches. It was bent in half. It died that day, I cried.

    It's spectacular that the money and desire is out there to save these cars. Kudos.
  • @Wing_Driver_CO

  • @prophez23

    I love this, it’s always great to see an old girl get saved. It’s crazy to think about how many cars are just hiding in a field or a barn just waiting to be rediscovered
  • @gregorylyon1004
    Found in a junkyard 3 decades ago. I'm really surprised that the car still had the original Hemi and 4 speed still under the hood. Hats off to the gentleman who seen this beast in the scrap pile, knew what it was and saved it from the crusher. That car is super rare. That man is the real hero of this story.

    Beautiful Coronet & Awesome Job! I Hope My 71 Chevelle Malibu Get's Some Love Like This. Thanks for the Great Video Also
  • Beautiful car . Makes me miss my 70 super bee. Mark you are one awesome guy.
  • I love your "LITTLE DEAD WAGON", my dad (Dick Branstner) built the first "LITTLE RED WAGON", he had it for a year before Bill "Maverick" Golden got it. Jay Howell was the first driver, Jay Howell also built the DART CHARGER for my dad Roger Lindamood drove COLOR ME GONE for him. I enjoy your work, keep it up! Bob
  • I love the attention to detail Mark and everyone at Graveyard cars have. Hmmm. Now I know who I want to restore my 1969 F5 440 automatic Plymouth GTX.
