1965 Dodge Coronet 440

Works in Progress



Erik writes from Fresno, California:   I picked this Dodge up in December of 2003. The Coronet 440 has 84,500 original miles on the 318. The interior is perfect with a few small blemishes (driver's side of the front bench is softer than the passenger side). The engine currently runs but does not accelerate (the car idles but does not drive). The Mopar rally wheels were just added two days ago.

I am looking to keep the car as close to stock as possible with exceptions to the wheels, carb and exhaust.

I am in the Central Valley in California and new to the Mopar excitement. If anyone close by could give me advice on engine and parts I could really use the help. Thanks.

Welcome to Mopars, Erik!

You picked a neat, low mileage, B body to start the fun! Enjoy!  smile!
