When I was first getting to cars my freind was a mopar fanatic. First it was a 69 roadrunner with 383 then he found this 66 Coronet, with a who knows how much HP 440, big cam, 915 closed chamber heads, 4spd, 3.91 gears and it was quiet. Back in the 80's for $1500, a real sleeper. The only thing it had for traction control was the pinion snubber.
He didn't know what he had either so....got up beside this Chevy at a red light they're smiling and laughing at this powder blue yard boat. Light turns green, the Chevy takes off hard while Dave's dumping the clutch and that car went violently hopping to the right then the left. He looked at me and said what do I do? I said let off the gas a little. He did and it was like being in sling shot the way it launched. We caught up to him going in 2nd and passed that Chevy in a blur then shifted to third with no clue how fast we going then. They don't make them like that for $1500.00 no more.
¥¥¥¥¥ These are pics from Internet, imagine no chrome, centerline type wheels and single head lights instead of 4 like pics on Internet. With clean lines and no rust, Wow, what a car. ¥¥¥¥¥
