For the most part I'd like to keep it stock like both you and Knuck said, there are some small things I'd like to do but am not going to go crazy. Possibly 12 Volt upgrade, disc brakes, hidden modern radio, etc. Getting the stock 230 running, is a big hope and I really want to go that route.

I can see the UNI Dome from my back deck. Small world! I unfortunately don't have much history on this car yet, am going to do a VIN lookup and see what I can find that way, if anything.

Thanks everyone, planning to wash it off right away and clean up the grime and pine needles before I put it in the garage. Then see about getting the engine to turn over. The state of the motor will guide my plans for it.

Hello all. New to the forum, and new to the classic car world. I've always been an admirer of classic cars, and have always wanted one. Anything from classic curves to pure muscle. I've recently purchased, and will be picking up a 1950 Dodge, I believe it to be a Coronet based off the research I've found, am hopeful the title will have it or I'm sure you all will know. Everything seems to be there, all the chrome, and parts. Floors are pitted and have the usual midwest rust spots so I'll get to remove those and replace, looking forward to that. Engine ran 2 years ago according to PO, it did turn by hand so am happy their. I am looking to restore it as a driver and take to shows and cruise around. Will repaint it and rebuild it. If the engine is toast then I'll consider something different, but would like to keep the 230 if I can. Will definitely be searching here for tips, tricks and advice. Glad to meet new people and start a new hobby!
