Default '65 Coronet Lightweight Hemi...real car?

Interesting story for sure:

From the ad..."1965 Coronet HEMI S/S Lightweight Tribute? or Real Deal? Actually hoping someone can shed light on this while we sell it. Though it sounds like a story of folklore, This car was traced from the factory to Chicago where it was lost for many, many years. One day, it shows up in a barn with a couple of old pickups. Still has the grenaded 426 Hemi in it with no heads, another hemi on the floor next to it, and the factory lightweight hood sitting on the roof."

Who knows. Great looking car nonetheless.

This is not a lightweight. It was built at the St.Louis Plant and the original Color was Blue with a Blue interior. . All Lightweights were built at Lynch Rd, Michigan Plant. All these cars had different vins than normal cars and they start with a "W". There are so many rare lightweight parts on these original cars that it is easy to spot. . I am sending the seller a note also.
