Hi AeroFolks,
Posted in wanted and Discussions by mistake.
Wanted info on C500 headlight buckets.
Thanx 500Jon
Jon,
I have discussed this as well; Been there, done that....
My original question thread on the headlamp buckets of '69 C500's (http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,68944.0.html)
My '69 Charger 500's grille is a little closer to OEM correct (http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,71017.0.html)
I thought I had another thread on how I modified a '68 Coronet headlamp bucket to match my NOS bucket I found......... I'll go search more for it and/or pictures I took on my home computer...

Long story short, they aren't exactly the same, but you can definitely make it work. I got a bucket from a 68 Coronet fender ( gent I bought it from was kind enough to cut out what I needed and ship it to me ).... I modified it using my original NOS bucket as a template, came out pretty good.

Some pictures of me modifying the Coronet bucket to match as close the original C500 bucket..... As you'll see, the standard Coronet bucket doesn't have the attach brackets.........

Many thanx Troy!!! :2thumbs: :2thumbs: :2thumbs:
Just gotta find a 68 Coronet junkyard donor?
