Naturally finding a top-notch A12 is a pretty rare occurrence. In fact this killer Coronet was rare from the get-go as by the time all was said and done Chrysler had only produced roughly 150 auto-equipped WM23M hardtops.

Below that glass slab-sided body panels hang traditional door handles amid bright wheel trim clear marker lamps and a correct chrome mirror. And at the back of the car a black valance centers a bold DODGE script and factory-fresh taillights between stainless exhaust tips a small Bee emblem and a second chrome bumper.
