Re: Cheap Mopars



Ran into a 59 Coronet at Monster MoPar with a 325 HEMI he swore was factory.  Talked about having the poly heads for it also.  He used the Hemi heads for the eye candy.  I will agree the books say just 57 & 58 but never say never I have personally seen two 59s with 325s and if correct that one in the article is a 325.  Possibly early 59s with extra production 325s from 58??

True, but that was 57-58 only for the 325 Hemi.  Same block, different heads.  I have a 57 Coronet 4dr Hardtop (nice lines without the sedan post) with the 325 Hemi.  Believe they came with Torqueflites only, vice the Powerflites which was the normal automatic transmission in those days.

Your correct, my 59 Coronet has a 326 poly.  As mentioned, Dodge also had a 325 Hemi / Poly.  The heads were interchangeable if you had both sets!

If you looked at the photos from before the auction,, there were many empty "spaces" where cars had been sitting .   Wonder what they were ?  The Lambrecht auction nearby had many "special" vehicles.  Had there been some low mile 62-65 B body hardtops and sedans,, some Dart GT's ect.  it might have been a different story.   I sure would have liked the 59 Dodge,,, or the 62 300 though.  BTW,,, where did the "325 Hemi" come from ?  My first driver when I was 16, ( my dad's work car) was a 59 Dodge.  326 Poly as I recall.

Thanks Dennis. Location matters. If these Mopars were on the east coast of the US, they would have probably sold for higher prices. But then, if they *were* on the east coast, they would have deteriorated into piles of iron oxide particles years ago. :)

BTW, http://www.forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=52088&posts=41&start=1 starting 5-12-14 shows more from the auction. A message by mopar56 posted on 2014-05-02 2:46 PM gives some nice historical background about the owner. Also noted there that at least one salvage company that was on site with a portable crusher. :(

Thanks,
