1970 Cornet R/T Survivor Matching Numbers

I am listing this for a friend and the following is the information he has given me. I will try to answer any questions you might have and send additional pictures if needed.

Up for your consideration is a very solid survivor R/T. This car was purchased by my friend about ten years ago with the intention of a future restoration. He purchased it from the original owner who originally bought the car when returning home from Vietnam.

The original owner had the vinyl top installed and also a "pop up" sunroof which was a popular item in those times. He was an electronics person that is why all of the extra "things" were added to the car. I'm sure if he would have realized that someday these cars would be so sought after maybe he would have kept it in original condition. The biggest challenge of course will be to eliminate the sunroof.

The good side to all of this is that most all of the parts needed have been reproduced. The car runs and drives butwill need brake work to be road worthy as it has been stored for the last ten years. There is a copy of the build sheetwhichyou can view in the pictures.All the numbers match transmission and engine and also the correct numbers on the radiator support which can also be viewed in the pictures.

This is a very solid car including the trunk floor and drop off panels. The trunk floor was covered in some type of carpet with a form backing which has been cleaned off so you can see the original trunk pan.The body and floors are very solid with the exception of the lower left quarter panel which you can see in the pictures has some rust but is very repairable. There are also two spots on each rocker panel where the factory joined them under the door where they meet the quarter panels that have the lead joints starting to push out. These you can see in the pictures. There are other dents andscratches all around the car but all very repairable. I have tried to include pictures of these areas and do have a few more that I could not fit in the listing. I will be glad to send them to you if you send me your email address. Please no picture collectors if your serious I don't mind but as we all know these auctions take time to put together and follow up on.

The transmissionwas re-built during the course of ownership by the original owner. The engine has never been apart as far as we can tell. It runs well has a slight tick on startup but does quite down within a few seconds. It does not smoke or have any unusual vibrations. I'm sure it would benefit from a good tune-up and some fresh gas.

The rear body panel cover has been refurbished but the letters never put back on but they are included in the sale. There are also several other items including a reproduction consolethat are included in the sale of the car.

I'm sure I have left a few things out so please contact me with any further questions and I will try to answer them for you. The owner of the car can also answer any questions you might have but you will need to contact him direct by phone at 570-460-1034 EST. Vehicle is located in Northeast Pa.
