SYcamore (79) is the most common COX number I've seen. MUnicipal (68) sounds like a South Pasadena COX. HIghland (44) is an FX (Foreign Exchange) COX, IIRC. Image 12 of California - White Pages - Los Angeles Central Area - June 1964 A through KORT | Library of Congress (loc.gov) [EDIT] : MUnicipal (68) is the FX prefix, not HIghland (44).

1974 Chevy Malibu (Stock converted from AMT Lennie Pond Nascar)
1972coronet replied to Cosmo_Song's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Quite the ambitious project ! It would appear that you've got the skills required to tackle this conversion -- those tail lamp fixtures alone are tricky. Is this going to be a Laguna S-3 ? Some 40 years ago someone made a street / stock Laguna from the MPC Hawaiian Tropic (from Cannonball Run) . I'm sure that someone has images of it. Keep on keepin' on ! -
Toffy's in great company now; her Spirit is free. My heart aches for you and yours. Thank you for your time and love and companionship which you'd provided, Toffy ?

AMT 1960 3-in-1 Ford F-100 Pickup Truck
1972coronet replied to rekcirb13's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
I've been looking online L.A.M.F. for the images I'd seen at one time of a F100 Unibody which was employed by either Caltrans or one of their contract companies. There's an image of one parked on the Arroyo Seco Parkway/ Pasadena Freeway (then, S.R. 11 / US 66, present day S.R. 110) with its ostensible operator installing 'ArmCo Railing' (the wood-post-aluminium-beams arrangement which started appearing in c.1963 in the medians of Parkways and Freeways, eta. I'm going to keep searching ! -
Thanks for the nod , @JollySipper. From memory: SYcamore and PYramid (both "79") were common in Pasadena 'proper'; to wit : SY-1-0060 or PY-9-1000 , '213' area code (818, eta., didn't come along until c.1982). I hope that this helps.

'68 MPC Dodge Coronet roof up Convertible
1972coronet replied to Mr mopar's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
Looks nice ! Keep us posted on its fit ; I'd like one so that I can build an up-top SS/EA version (tops have to be up, along with windows). -

Sears also used to offer - via their catalogue - a little "something" to "help" the builder along with this - and others - project...

Chevy engine red or orange?
1972coronet replied to khier's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I've been playing with the idea of building a kit (maybe a Duster) with a Jaspar (or similar) 'rebuilt' engine under the bonnet. Thanks for the reminder ! -

The insane double standards of yootoob
1972coronet replied to Ace-Garageguy's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
What that "song" acronym stands for is barfy to begin with. I, too, have witnessed that age verification rubbish for a clip/film/etc. whose title is "enough" to trigger their nanny crossing guard. Cardi B, indeed. Yuck. -

Roof appears to be ostensibly too short to me -- B-pillars-back.

My dad had an '82 (first year) in 1985-1987. Fully-loaded (except for cassette) - I've forgotten that trim level's nomenclature - and clean. Total piece of it. 2.8 V6 was a gutless gas hog; that stupid electronic carburetor was "set" and therefore nonadjustable. TH-200 trans was slipping. Radio stopped working (analogue dial which was stuck on some crumb bum station). Paint faded on the sides first. Those early base/clear paints were trash. That being said: There were a handful of them around with 350/350/10 Bolts which were super nice. You just know that those trucks went through in absentia emissions testing (i.e., 50$ will pass anything... presence not necessary).
