Super nice! I have a major weakness for c-bodies. Still miss my 67 Fury 4 dr...does your Newport drive like it's a solid block of steel? Beautiful color by the way.

Nice, I love the old land-yacht's. Their is a '68-ish Coronet 4 door down the street that I suspect doesn't run but looks solid that I check out every time I drive by. ONE project is all I can handle though!

Love the color too. Nice cruiser.

Nice car!

Got me a Chrysler it's as big as a whale and it's about to set sell. Got me a car it fits about 20 so come along and bring your juke box money. "The B-52's"

MAN, THAT IS AWESOME!!!!!! I know where a '67 is sitting right down the road from me with the original 440. It's the dodge H.P.440 What is that a ???? Plymouth has the commando, Dodge has the ??? Anyway, Your's is in way better condition. This one has 117,000 original miles but it has been outside It's whole life. So the ext. and Int. is not even close to as nice as yours. Man I love those. I used to own a '69 Fury 111. I loved that car.

 

[joe440]

thanks its got the 383

 

[70Duster440]

Love it! The ol' C's have style and I like the slab sides. We've got a '69 vert we're gonna do something with. This is a good board: http://www.cbodydrydock.com/news.php

That car kicks ***!

I was giving someone hell about wanting to part one like it out last month.... It was a nice car too....

 

[joe440]

i joined a c-body mopar forum and found out some interesting stuff on this car, its actually a 67 with a 68 front end, but the title says 68. i googled both years and i actually like the 68 front end more than the 67 and 67 tails lights are cooler than the 68's. also in 67 side markers werent mandatory and on my front bumper it has side markers that were mandatory in 68, i wonder what the deal is...

INCREDIBLE 4 door hardtop..............GREAT ride !!!! :toothy10::toothy10:

 

[goldfish65]

Look how straight and aligned all the body panels are...awesome!

 

[res1vw21]

I was going to ask if that was an early build or something. Good looking car though and I like the '68/'67 combo.
