Mo its gunna be a bit of a custom, paint will be be slightly differant from B5, new wheels, 440 instead of a 318, and I might decide to turn it into a clone but that depends.

Good stuff Connor, cant wait to see it when its done should be a minter!!!!

A 440 is the way to go alright will be doing something similar this year myself all going well

Ok I know its been a while but not much has happened to the coronet recently because of shows and rebuilding dads engine he bought recently. But we have now finally managed to completely repair the front wings, and with a skim of filler will look good as new.We have started on the heater box and are going to start putting bits back in and will test run it in dads runner. Picts are to follow and will hopefully be on here tomorrow as i'm on half term. $\:D/$

Jeez you guy's have had a lot of rot to cut out of your car. I take my hat off to ya. Good fellin' though when it's all done, knowin' it's a rot free shell. Great job well done

Well done with the front wings too. My front right wing was pretty bad too, had a bad repair in a previous job and was full of filler. It really took some straightning out. But lucky for me there was very little rot in my shell. The floors are good and it was all at the rear on mine.
