- Welcome to the DBG youtube. I put together this 10 min video to show a breif start to finish on the 1968 Dodge Coronet Magnum swap. If you havent seen the full build videos check out the channel! Thanks for watching everyone! If your new here this is a 1968 Dodge Coronet we swapped a 1993 5.2 Magnum and 46rh overdrive trans into, along with a 410spool rear, new fuel system and much more.

I can appreciate how fast and diligent you work, rebuilding a whole car in 10 minutes is no easy feat.
That Coronet has been sitting in a field for 50 years and it has less rust than that 10-year-old Dodge truck you were driving.
There’s nothing rusting more on earth than 2003-2008 dodge rams lol
@@doublebarrelgarage When did the more "modern" body style appear on the Dodges? 1994? Whenever it was, from that year to 2008 are some of the most rust-prone vehicles on planet Earth. I hear a lot of people make the claim that "Chevy trucks rust like crazy", but I live in the heart of the rust belt (Ohio), and I can say with 100% honesty that I have NEVER ONCE seen a Dodge truck from the 1994-2008 model years that did not have the top of all four wheel wells TOTALLY rusted out after AT MOST four years on the road. Same thing usually goes for the bottom of the doors.
I remember going to look at a Dodge from that 1990's era in 2006 or 2007 thinking I was about to buy my first truck. Got there and couldn't believe how rusted-out the thing was...I could not believe that this dude had somehow managed to hide that much rust in his pictures. All four wheel wells totally rusted out, and he had even put like a chrome panel over the bottom part of the doors because all four doors (it was an extended cab) were totally rusted out at the bottom too. It was a massive letdown. It seems like it is literally impossible to stop those things from rusting.
I drive a 2014 Sierra 2500 now and I get it oil sprayed every single winter. Once immediately before the first snow hits (and therefore immediately before the first road salt is put down), and then I get it sprayed usually once or twice more over the course of the winter whenever we have a few days or a week of sunny weather. Truck looks brand new underneath even though it has been driven throughout every Ohio winter for the last seven years. Actually I just stopped by the dealer to get a new battery two weeks ago and the dealer offered me top dollar for the truck because of all these shortages going on...and because it is in such pristine condition and has just about 63,000 miles on it. I would've sold it to them but I legitimately would not have been able to buy a new one to replace it! Plus I am waiting for the refreshed 2023 models before I buy a new Sierra HD.
But THE ONLY WAY to TOTALLY PREVENT your vehicle from rusting if you drive it on salty winter roads is to find a shop that does a THOROUGH oil spray job and get it done religiously every winter. Whatever you do...DO NOT GET YOUR VEHICLE "RUST-PROOFED" BECAUSE IT WILL DESTROY YOUR VEHICLE AFTER JUST ONE WINTER!!! My dad bought a 2003 Z71 Suburban brand new and made the catastrophic mistake of getting it "rust-proofed". I am not exaggerating when I say the underside of that truck looks like it has been sitting on the bottom of the ocean for the last 125 years...and the truck only has just under 110,000 miles on it. It rusted so severely due to the "rust-proofing" that it is literally unsafe to drive.
Actually the last time he drove it was back from the shop that had replaced all the brake lines because they ALL rusted out. These rednecks replaced ALL BUT ONE of the lines, and on the way home, that ONE LINE they didn't replace exploded. My dad drove it all the way home without brakes with me leading the way because he refused to return it to that shop. We got home safe, he parked that Suburban in his yard and it has been sitting there ever since...maybe nine years now. He went out and bought a new Sierra HD himself because he really needed a 2500 anyway.
@@doublebarrelgarage My old boss had a 99 and it was falling apart from the rust. Such a nice truck too when he first got it. V10 sport 2500 4×4. Granted he didn't take care of it except fix what broke mechanically. But man, he had to bungee the doors shut it was so bad.
Real steel vs the thin stuff they use now, truly a shame. Cars just aren't build to last anymore
@Jessica T Well that because they were on terrible suspension. You take a classic body like that and build it up like the hotrodders did and they handle great
The sound of that engine was the most satisfying sound ever
I need more. Must hear it open up and throttle down, heaven
I think a lot of back yard mechanics can relate to this, well done.
Oh yea
5.2 liters is roughly a 318 ci. This brings back memories of my dad's '68 Dodge Coronet with a factory 318 w/ 2 barrel carb back in about 1975. That car had the same rust as yours. I have often wondered what became of my dads car. I hope someone restored it and that it is still somewhere in NC being loved and driven. Thank you!
Glad to see young guys still into the classics.
So much cool factor in this video. "Geter done" is 100% the montra and echos what 90% of us do in our garages every weekend. Use what you have and have fun. High dollar builds are rare and many times suck out your interest. What you did here is perfect.
I appreciate this a lot!!!
That was awesome, shows that you don't need all brand new fancy parts to bring muscle cars to life. I appreciate your video. Some guys interested in the hobby may not have the budget for a crate engine & all fancy new stuff. You made that car badass with bare necessities.
Can't tell you how much I love stuff like this. Did 2 or 3 myself. 2 Swingers and a Challenger Rallye.
Only people who truly love muscle cars understand the sentimental power of this video. Thank you.
Love that Era of Coronets. Chargers. And. Roadrunners. / Satalites. My Favorites.
Love that short video !!!
That's what it's all about ; putting Classics back on the road and keeping history alive ! It takes knowledge and talent to do this kind of work and this guy has it ! Wish i could be an accomplished mechanic like him to be able to completely restore my own Classic car while the passion is still strong in me ! Nowadays if you don't do a little bit of work on your car and don't have good contacts that could help you restore your Classic, the road ahead is going to be very expensive.
Nice Muscle Car. I Had A 1967 Dodge Coronet When I Was Younger with a 383 Magnum with a Holley 4 Barrel and a Transmission with a Shift Plate in it and a Possy Differential. Also, My Exhaust System was Two Side Baffles Pipes on each side of the Rocker Boards.
Great video…I really love to see old Mopar vehicles rescued from fields and put back on the road, maybe for another 50+ years!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome video, would love these kinds of cars over here in the UK, this is literally the definition of "built not bought" 10/10
Thank you!!
I enjoyed that. You'll get more looks at a car show then all the over restored gems :)
It seems that almost everyone has a mustang nowdays
Amen to that
Thank you for reborn this gem muscle car, blessings...👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Sir, very well done !!!!! You really impressed me with your mechanic knowledge ! I wish I could be good as you are. You brought back to life this super car and in the same time the American Spirit. Just AWESOME !!!!!!!
These are the videos I dream of. Just one video, 10 to 15 minutes long, muscle car restore or getting it to run. Keep on rockin' bro 🤘
Around 1977 I bought one just the same as this for $75. Same color, 318, was in much better shape, but not much. Put a muffler & 2 screw in freeze plugs, had about $100 in it. Drove it for a long time. It was good transportation for a poor, hungry, skinny 18 year old.
Getting it running with tons of recycled/ reingineered parts, is what its about!! Very nice project. Low buck driver, imagine drivetrain is dependable too. Thats hot rodding.
Heck yea man
I LOVE SPENDING TIME WITH MY MOPAR FAMILY!!!! SO MUCH FUN!!!!
Awesome video.there’s a certain feeling about giving life to something dead that only repairers know.great job 👍🏻👍🏻
the beauty of the engine! makes my 2014 Dodge Charger RT jealous
At first I was disappointed it wasn't a big block, but I watched all the way through, mostly because of the fast pace. Didn't mind the music, but enjoyed the exhaust note more!
Mind-blowing technic V engine improve fighting with all bottom as gearbox ,fuel tank, wheel, really superb.
geez this brings back memories of my grandpas 69 charger
i know it’s a cornet but it’s still a dodge and somewhat around the same years
Very very nice work, done about 10 of these Magnum Swaps in A/B bodies over the last 7 years, the next one I'm thinking of going fuel injection finally, lot of wiring it looks but hella worth it in the end. Keep it up man! Mopar or No Car.
Nice save!
Reminds me a bit of Christine with those angry headlights!
That is not a muscle car it is just a standard coronet with a 318. That is a restomod or hot rod. Not a true factory muscle car.
It's good to see legend like these coming back to life!
I refuse to believe that this car got back on the road in 10 minutes, but I like that the car was rust free.
amazing build
however please make that gas tank either stronger or move it or reinforce the bumper because if someone rearends you then neither of you are going to survive
Extremely satisfying video. I'll probably watch this 10 times in the near future.
I was just thinking the same thing.
This, and videos like this, make me believe I could get that old 260Z shell and fix it up enough to drive. Just have to find an L28 to drop in it hahaha!
Thanks for sharing.
Nice work, your choice of fuel delivery, A+.
That is so sick. Excellent job man. Can't wait to see what else you have in store.
I love your car and your video. Thank you for uploading it as well as the hard work you’ve done to the beautiful vehicle. Lots of love and respect from me!!!
I love the not fully restored look. :)
This was amazing and so was the young man doing that work, he can do anything to a car, this video should be shown to every shop class in high schools across America, it show our kids that if they work hard and learn, they can achieve anything, I love this video , it should be viral , well, that's my opinion
Hey. I just wanted to say thank you for the kind words. They mean a lot.
@@doublebarrelgarage well deserved
The patina, the noise, damn well done 10 mins well spent for sure :)
God i love how those old steelies look on old beated cars
Absolutely satisfying great job great car that sound is perfect
I really appreciate it
THANK YOU SO MUCH. FOR SAVING ANOTHER MUSCLE CAR!!!!
What a great looking car! Great job!
Well done dude this deserves a subscribe.... No bullshit talking the entire video & no action.... Only action. Very cool... Just need to amp it up abit with some burnouts or race other cars within the same category as ur projects....
Keep up the good work bro... All the way from south africa
I really appreciate the kind words!! Thank you
I like how you did not waste time running your mouth and got her done. Nice.
great Job*****wish I had your talent, hope you find many more cars to bring back to life.
I love this video bro, well done, that's a really cool car.
Bloody Brilliant Mate! Such talent, wow!
Very much enjoyed watching your enthusiastic work bro.👍👍👍
Loved everything except for the EFI conversion, nice job ! 👍
You brought her back from the dead. Literally! Nice job!
Thank you!
Какие красивые были машины тех лет, не то что современное барахло.
Особенно когда жрут 40л на сотню, ноль комфорта, вес в две тонны, рессорная подвеска, ноль шумоизоляции, тормоза барабанные. А кузов? Это просто консерва, которая сомнется в хлам, потому что в те годы еще не использовали зоны деформации для защиты пассажиров в салоне. А про морально устаревший ДВС я промолчу. Один только карбюратор чего стоит.
@@RadikTagirov может и так.
Но красивые как лайнеры.
@@RadikTagirov Vidimo poetomu chasto ne stolko remont,bolshe upgreid..ABC,modern Engine,Aircondition...
Hey man I love how much you put effort into this, it’s magnificent!
Always loved the Coronet :D
Much appreciated!
You found a great car to start with. Most excellent video. Sounds great and I love it rough!!!!! Just how I've kept my 69 Skylark
Always love that body style, rust included... Nice job
Good taste in music too!
Love them B Bodies! Have a 69 Coronet myself. Awesome job on getting another one of these beauties back on the road!
@@mikehoncho9344 Totally agree about that mean front end (why I chose that specific year)! Mine is a 440 as well, but bored out to a 505 😁
Edit: Although I do like the unique tail lights of the 68s
@@mikehoncho9344 Impressive collection! I just have the one for now, but hoping to get a 70 Roadrunner sometime in the near future. My Dad’s neighbor has an all original base 66 Coronet he inherited from his Dad, but he has never taken it out for sentimental reasons.
@@mikehoncho9344 Oh now you’re just trying to make me jealous 🤣.
@@blackfield8248 I get carried away, sorry
@@mikehoncho9344 Haha no apology needed! At least those beauties have a good home instead of being forgotten and rotting alone in a field! Keep saving them 👍🏼
Nice! That's the way to do it. I'm doing the same with my 73 Z28
Rusty and bad paint but runs good and drivable
Bought a 68 coronet mid last year can’t wait to get that going had no engine no trans have 70 mustang seats in it lol I’ve got it all sanded down primered gotta get a grille just got a small block 4 speed and a 383 big block just needing a bell housing so I can put it all together then paint. Love the video man!
Christine’s engine!
Personally love the sound of 440s though.
Get rid of the mustwang seats bro. My Charger had them & a cobra jet hood scoop,which I switched Back ASAP. Friends said part Mopar,part Ford = MoFo 🤣🤣🤣
Nice to see you didn't throw a carburetor at it like so many backyarder's do!
what why is that bad
Awesome rebuild, Roadkill Garage style!! Godspeed, good sir.
thank you!!
I had two coronet 500s same color one had a black vinyl roof. such awesome memories. I traded it in in a small Texas town
That’s awesome. This one had a factory black painted roof but it’s faded pretty much clean off
This the life I want to live. You are the shit, bro. Thank you
No thank you!
Thank you so much saving this beauty .
Got a new life
My FIRST car! Had a 383 in it!
I use to have fun back in the day doing that vary same thing, good-job boss........
Абсолютно невероятно! Алгоритмы привели меня к этому ролику и я просто кайфонул. Работа для настоящего мужика воскресить столь крутой автомобиль. Обожаю звуки двигателя в8
Patina is always in style.. i need to get off my azz and get after my barn find 1970 gto ragtop project. your video is inspiring me.
Get after it!
The car is so beautiful . I wish you will restore it!
Nice one... I really adore these old muscle cars.
Cant believe you did all of that in 10 min!
ahahahahhahahahaha lol
One day I'm gonna gather a collection of classic American cars, one day...
Very cool!!! You did a lot of work on this!!!
On to the next! Lol thanks for watching man!!
@@doublebarrelgarage Great to see how this video did so well !!! Love it !!!!
The pink flamingos did it for me!!
😎👍
Enjoyed the vid the car looks like a driver than a garage queen!

One of these in my neighborhood and I always think to myself about how it’d look and sound…
Good job....!! I like your style, nice engine swap choice to injection ... Enjoy your car...!!
Awesome video! Keep them coming man! I see that your haven’t posted in a while. Don’t give up!
You're very talented Brother, enjoy your car.

Damn youse guys fast...all in ten minutes. That's awesome
Cool car.... reminds me of Fast n Furious black dodge. I can imagine this car with a huge cam, fresh paint and tire/rim combo.... you back in the game
It's already back in the game.
I just started watching this channel this morning. Was sad to see there wasn’t anything new on the magnum swap.
The magnum swap car has been sold. But there will be a new video this weekend on the car that I picked up right after!
@@doublebarrelgarage you don't say
I like it! A car you can have fun with and not worry about it too much
Exactly!
Fantastic! Love the Coronet!
Sweet! Love the relics!
Simple and functional. Top shelf.
For those wondering, its a 68 Dodge Coronet 440. Powered by a 318.
GOD BLESS THAT LOVELY CAR!
From a better time…..👍👍👍🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧
I have a 68 super bee that’s been parked since the late 80s this inspires me to put her on the road all ratty
