Description of 1969 Dodge Coronet 440

1969 Dodge Coronet 440Short Video of car here (may have to copy and paste link. I couldn't get it to work correctly)https://www. youtube. com/watch?v=XrPgtLwLh2Y Sweet. huh? :) I am offering my clean. driver condition. 451 Stroker big block Coronet. I am listing this car as a good solid driver condition vehicle. however it does need a few things. Mostly just small things I haven't gotten around to doin yet. That being said. the car runs and drives great!! Take it out whenever weather is nice. Rebuilt engine has less than 200miles on it!! New wheels n tires have less than 50. Car is 99% rust free. retains all of original sheet metal with exception of rear bumper. Some bubbling under old paint job (see pics). some paint missing off driver's C-pillar. seam sealer showing where vinyl top used to be. and a few pinholes on lower corner of back window drivers side and in trunk by passenger taillight. Otherwise good solid frame. floors. trunk and trunk extensions. quarters. cowl. firewall. rad support. etc etc. Was a small spot o rust on drivers frame rail. but this was (thankfully) spotted early and taken care of (have invoice). Also was in a hit n run a few years back. rear bumper took most of the damage. no structural damage. Same shop that did the section on the frame also did this and did a fantastic job (have before and after pics). Lastly. for some reason a small section of both rear frame rails looked as if someone took a can opener to them. maybe to feed battery cable thru (used to have battery mounted in trunk). However they didn't fix it when finished. Had I a welder it could be tapped back in place and welded back up. Not too big or even rusty at all. just ugly to look at if you're peeking under the car (have pics). Car was originally T7 (Dark Bronze Metallic) with tan vinyl top. Now bright yellow (as you may have noticed) with black R/T stripe. Paint is likely pushing 10 years old now and starting to show its age but easily cleans and shines up enough for cruising!! Despite the stripe and '440' callout on scoop. it is not a real R/T and obviously not a 440. but now resides a thumping 451 Cu In stroker engine. Car still has original tan interior upholstery which is in VGC and new carpet from Legendary. Small hole in middle of seat on drivers side. caused by screwdriver in pocket. ask me how I know haha Definitely kicked myself for that one. Anyways. also new Sony speakers. but no radio. I have one. also Sony. just not installed. I bought the car some 8 years ago in Virginia Beach. VA while still in the Navy. Had it ever since. Don't know too much about the car before that. was sitting on a buy here pay here lot lol. I think it was called Car Point on VA Beach Blvd. Have a lot of time and money in the old gal. I feel my asking price is quite fair. I mean where else are you gonna find a reliable. running. driving. big Block B body Mopar in great shape for less than 20k?!? hahaFor me. I feel it's time to move on to another car. plus I really have the 4spd bug hahahaNow for the fun stuff: Engine:-'77 400 bored and honed . 030" w/ 3. 75" stroke steel crank-NEW Keith Black hypereutic pistons-NEW Sealed Power rings -NEW Clevite main and rod bearings -rods reconditioned-block hot tanked. journals align honed-rebuilt 452 casting heads (new springs. seats. seals. retainers. locks. etc)-NEW Melling oil pump and pickup tube-NEW Crane timing chain and gear-NEW Felpro gaskets-NEW Edelbrock Performer Rpm camshaft misplaced cam card but I believe specs were 290* Dur @ . 050". . 484 Lift @ . 050-NEW Crane hyd lifters-NEW Comp Cams chromoly pushrods-NEW Crane adj rocker arms-NEW MP rocker shafts and holddown hardware-Vintage Edelbrock DP4B aluminum intake-new CVR aluminum water pump housing-NEW Flow Kooler aluminum water pump-NEW Champion 3 core aluminum radiator-reman electronic dizzy-Mr Gasket 1" aluminum spacer-NEW Holley 4150 750cfm (electric choke. vac secondaries)-NEW Lokar throttle cable-NEW Lightweight Mini Starter-Short block was prepped and assembled by Kammer Racing in Huber Heights-Comp ratio between 9. 8-10:1. so pump gas friendly (been running 89. but takes 93 just as well)-unknown brand long tube headers. 2. 5" dual exhaust.

Accumulator spring removed and block rod installed for good hard shifts using the B&M Megashifter!!Unknown brand and stall converter. as it came with car when I first bought it around 8yrs ago. It works very well with setup so I left it. New transmission mount. Rear End: Unfortunately it still retains the stock Chrysler 8. 25 rear. however rebuilt and upgraded with 3. 91s and Sure Grip. So far has held up to some abuse (hey the Jeep crowd loves these things for off roadin'). but as engine is still in 'break-in' stage. I try to go easy ;)I do have a complete drum to drum B Body 8. 75 (open) rear available. Suspension. Wheels. Tires. Misc:Rebuilt front end with Poly bushings. upper and lower ball joints. inner and outer tie rod ends. idler and pitman arms. All from PST. PST Pro touring 1. 03" torsion bars.

Drums were turned. new shoes and wheels cylinders. New Timken bearings as well. New engine mounts from 440SourceInterior:Still wears original seat upholstery. door panels. headliner. etc. I have dash trim pieces. the stainless as well as dual thumbwheel radio bezel. Carpet is new from Legendary. New insulation installed under carpet. may have put a bit too much as carpet doesnt quite fit tight in some areas tho may settle as it sees more use. New Sony speakers. also have Sony head unit but currently not installed. As mentioned a few of the gauges do not work. Speedometer stopped working right after I finished rebuild on my 2nd time out with car. Likely a cable issue. Dash coolant temp gage recently stopped working as well. Ammeter was bypassed for charging system conversion (see above). All dash lights work. as well as map. glove box. and dome light. Car has A01 Light Group but ign switch light isn't working. Have aftermarket cluster installed under ashtray with Cool Temp. Oil Press. and Volt. That's all I can think of for now. Will add as I remember. Sure there's some I've missed. Misplaced/lost a lot of the receipts for the new parts but still have the engine build receipt/invoice from Kammer Racing in Huber Heights. OH. Also have more pics of build if interested. only allowed 24 on here. As well as a couple videos of engine break in and idling etc. Asking $18500. price is negotiable. Full asking price will get extra parts if buyer wants them. Few emblems/badges. plastic repop Pentastar. Dodge's 'Fratzog'. two (for vinyl top if you wish to put one on). extra trunk light harness. few other bits n pieces. Also I have a 413 (diassembled. w/ Eddy Performer 440 intake. will need rebuilt. but should be complete minus carb ). extra 727 for a big block. Also the old C Body style steel wheels that used to be on the car. As well as B body 8. 75 rear end. complete drum to drum. Car listed for sell locally. so I reserve the right to end listing early.
