Allison didn't hesitate, "burnouts". What a great relationship and the memories she'll carry into her adult years are priceless. Car people are the greatest, thanks Lou.

My high school car was my Dad's 68' Coronet 4 door. I swapped out the 318 for a 413 from a 65' New Yorker. Very quick, beat a 74' Trans Am in a street light drag race. He was quit ticked off.

Love the car Lou. One thing I noticed was it appears that this gentleman retained the factory Bendix front disc brakes which is a rare opption for a 68 B-Body. They were a four piston caliper. That shows me he has a high level of detail. Those brakes can be kind of tuff to find parts for and very expensive especially when compared with an after market kit or a factory drum brake. I went the same route as him with my Roadrunner and questioned my decision many times but after seeing them behind that Magnun 500 wheel I know I made the right call. Keep up the great work Lou.

My first car as a kid in '71 was a '68 Coronet 500 in medium green metallic. 2-Door pillarless coupe. Had chrome accents on the two rear fender scallops and chrome lined tail lights actually fancier than the R/T. A 318 that would bury the needle. All options - fender top turn signals-lighting package inside blah blah. Looking for one recently I found it impossible to find one - lots of RTs and sedans but I think my 500 was almost more rare than the Hemi. There were at least 3 B Body Hemis and 2 E-Body Hemis in my ol' town of Mystic CT back in early 70s. Good ol' days. Another great ride, Lou !!!!!!

@@loucostabile Hi, Lou. Wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year through this old vid that somehow I skipped. I think I've already watched some from you (a Corvair and a notchbak Barracuda I think) and now I've subscribed. Regardless of they are Hemi, Ford or GM etc., I love 60s muscle cars, especially when they come out with a story mostly telling a great passion in the background. And I've got to mention that, your English sounds crystal clear to me even with my high-school English. Have checked your channel and I'll be watching all those beauties that were a "scarce commodity" in my country, (tu-doors were rare for it was considered selling them is more diffucult !!!) Cheers from Istanbul.

Hey Lou, beautiful car, great review thank you for helping me pass the time here in my self quarantine. Hemi started up probably with a quarter turn of the starter, I have heard some older hemis start rough while others start instantly. Now that's personality... LOL.

I agree. That motor is knocking. Someone commented it already had solid lifters. Solid lifters don’t sound like that. He said they switched in 1970. I believe Chrysler 426 street hemis went to hydraulic lifters in 1968 motors, not 1970. Regardless, beautiful RT, but that motor don’t sound right to me
