70 Coronet

Philb · Post by **Philb** » Mon Jan 21, 13 10:00 am

The Coronet hasn`t had as much time spent on it in a long while. Over the last 3 months a number of jobs which have been long overdue have been carried out, some by myself, but many more by friends and professonal outfits like Anton at APD Automotive. His knowledge, attention to detail, fabricating skills and sheer persistance all come at a competitive price. I recommend him to all as he will treat your car as if it was his own.
I won`t say much more as i hope a write up and more pics should be heading your way in the next connected mag

Sorry Dave, i didn`t know the exact colour myself until i had to have it matched for the work that started late last year. Turns out it is Mambo Blue which is a Chrysler colour ( sorry color)

At some point in its life before it was imported in 2005 it was repainted in this colour.

Would you believe i didn`t take an engine bay pic before the work started Del

I have a pic of the bay i took when i first got the car in 2006 but the block was painted shortly after that. Not sure how many pics i should post as i have sent a load to Simon for the next Connected mag. Not that i want to keep you all in suspenders
