1966 Dodge Coronet 500 Convertible Walk Around and Certicard V8 Speed and Resto Shop

We just brought in this very cool 1966 Dodge Coronet convertible. It's got a pretty neat story and a couple of very cool details we wanted to share with you.

This video attempts to answer the following common questions:

What is a Dodge Coronet convertible?
Who restores muscle cars?
Where is a muscle car restoration shop near me?

Our customer's parents had one of these 1966 Dodge Coronet 500 Convertibles brand new back in 1966, and a few years ago, they wanted to recapture some of those memories. So they found this car. This is not their original, but it's a basically direct replacement. And over the years, our customer has ended up with the car from her parents and they want to get it back on the road and dialed in so that they can enjoy it. And they have younger children who are both interested in driving this car as well. So it's truly a legacy / family heirloom type of vehicle. It's got 383 under the hood with an automatic transmission with a bucket seat interior. But one of the coolest details is found under the hood right behind the driver's side headlight.

A lot of these 1966 and 1967 Dodge, Chrysler, and Plymouth cars had a little thing found in a slot called a Certicard. A Certicard is a thing that the dealer used to keep track of the car for warranty purposes. It's got the VIN. It also has the build date of the car, which in this case was May 17th of 1966, and the delivery date when it was first sold of October of 1966.

But it also has the original owners name and the dealership where it was sold. There's also color codes on this so that we know that this car was originally a saddle tan with a with a tan interior. So it's been repainted and there are some non-original elements on the car. The 383 is now fueled by a FAST EZ EFI system, and it's got an upgraded MSD ignition and an aluminum radiator.

Inside, they added some aftermarket bucket seats and a few things. When you find a Certicard, it's it's pretty unusual, especially if the Certicard VIN matches the VIN of the actual car, which in our case it does. So if you ever find one of these things laying around, you might want to reach out to some Mopar groups or put it up on eBay, because if you find one that's got a VIN and somebody has the car, they're going to want to keep this with it anyway.

Just kind of a neat little detail we found here at the V8 Speed and Resto Shop and this cool 1966 Dodge Coronet 500 convertible.
