Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    260" Polyhead - i.e., not the Hemi which looked similar. Modifications have been made with, among other things, an upgraded ignition system and 12-volt alternating current as well as a dual circuit braking system and brake servo. The engine starts and runs well, gearbox works ok. The car needs some adjustments in the engine and brakes to be completely good and ready for inspection.

  • Interior condition:

    The seats are complete and nice in the upholstery. The Interior roof is in matching green, which is a bit worn at the edges, but complete and undamaged. The interior and dashboard are in green metallic which is almost original. Electrically operated front seats (controls do not work) The door cards are in very good condition, reclad with Chevrolet badges.

    On the equipment side, in addition to the electric seats, there is also the original radio, dashboard clock, oil temperature gauge, and cigarette lighter - however, the heating system is missing.

    The carpet have been replaced at some point with some some wear.

    The boot is a bit difficult to access - the keyhole is blocked and there is a latch behind the rear seat.

  • Exterior condition:

    The car is perceived as black, but if you look closer, it is dark green metallic on a black base. The roof is also metallic green. The paintwork is well done although not quite perfect, there are some defects, also some scratches. The Chrome and shiny trim are well maintained for the age of the car, there is some damage but nothing crooked or bumpy. The tyres and hubcaps have a south american style.

  • General condition:

    In a used condition that has been kept in good working order over the years. The extra plus is the rare 260" Poly engine.

Facts about the model

Vad är det här för modell - Coronet eller Kingsway? Under fyrtio och femtiotalet gjorde Chrysler en del egna modeller avsedda för export. Det var i princip Plymouthbilar som fick Dodgefront - kallas ibland för 'Plodge cars'.

Här i Sverige känner vi dom främst som Dodge Kingsway. I Kanada där de flesta sattes ihop eller packades ned i lådor för montering utomlands fanns nivåerna Regent, Mayfair, Kingsway och för 1959 enbart - Viscount.

Snäppet över dessa fanns De Soto Diplomat - En Plymouth med De Sotofront.

Men på en del ställen i världen marknadsfördes dessa 'Plodge' även under namnet Coronet - som ju annars var en ordinarie Dodgemodell hemma i USA.
