1966 Dodge Coronet 440 Trim and 440 engine
This car is my baby. I have a couple other projects I want to finish, sad to see it go but its time to move on. Ive owned for about 3 years and put lots of money in it.
This car is in incredible shape. CLEAN Oregon Title!
I am a ASE Master Automotive Tech and a Master Heavy Truck Tech and I put this car together myself, so feel confident it had been done right.

Engine
1971 440 - steel crank, 9 to1 compression, Edelbrock E-street 75cc chamber heads. 224/234 @.050 .497int .520exh after the 1.6 chromoly roller rockers. Double roller timing chain. Comp pushrods, Edelbrock Performer RPM intake. Quick Fuel 750 carb, Billet distributor with blaster coil. 1 7/8 hooker headers into dual 3" single chamber mufflers with turn downs. Aluminum water pump and housing, mini denso alternator, mini starter, optima red top battery. SFI balancer and SFI B&M flexplate with all arp fasteners. 4 core aluminum radiator and a flex fan. K&N air filter. I always use non-ethanol premium fuel.

Transmission
Shift kit, 4 qt extra B&M transmission pan, aux cooler and cooler in radiator all plumbed with 4 an hydraulic line. Custom phoenix transmission 9.5 torque converter 2800 stall ( I wanted it tight for street use) Bolt on 1/4 Aluminum drive shaft loop

Rearend
489 case 8.75 - 3.91 suregrip, adjustable pinion snubber. Landrum 200lb rear springs and competition engineering 3 way shocks

Other
Manual steering, lightweight aluminum master cylinder with disc proportioning valve, car is still 4 wheel drum brakes (stops great). Small 7260 ujoints. This car needs nothing but driven, if someone want to do some upgrades I recommend getting a 1350 driveline and converting to discs in the front (you are already half way there with the mastercylinder and prop valve) just to handle the power its putting out. New tires and draglite style wheels

Body
I don't have a ton of history on the car other than it was garaged most of its life. The paint you see is ORIGINAL, oregon has a great climate/doesnt salt the roads so cars hold up really well here. The body isnt perfect, it has 48 years of wear. There are a couple dings and some chipping and a spot I had painted by the drivers door handle (other
owner spray painted about a dollar bill sized section, not sure why) There is some very slight rust starting in the lower rear quarter panels behind the tires. There is also a slight wrinkle or dent on the passenger side quaters and lower passenger side front fender. All trim and bumpers are perfect. Still has factory wiper arms with wind deflector.

Interior
New carpet and headliner, custom made dash with autometer phantom gauges. 2 5/8 electric oil pressure, water temp, trans temp and volt meter. 3 3/8 160 mph speedo and 3 3/8 8k tach. Original radio but does not work. Heater core isnt hooked up ( I didnt want the ugly heater hoses in the engine compartment and I dont drive it in the winter) Front floor pans were professionally patched, the rest of the floor and trunk floor needed no work. Had the floor pan and trunk floor coated with por15 and the trunk floor sprayed back to body color. The seats have a couple tears in them, not bad for 48 years, Door panels and dash or original

I wanted to see what the car would run in the 1/4 mile before I sold it, so I took it to the local dragstrip. It ran 13.1 @106 on street tires! Confident that it will run 12s with a little tweaking if that is what you want to do with it. You will not be disappointed with this car, I drive it on and off to work, when the weather is nice, which is 60 miles round trip. The car has never let me down. Last time I did plugs, I did a compression test and there was 155 psi on every hole + or - 2 psi. Great oil pressure. Runs right around 180 on even the hottest days, Transmission has never gotten over 165 degrees.

Cruise Woodward Avenue with Autoblog's Dodge Challenger Hellcat

Thu, Aug 20 2015

While Autoblog was consumed by coverage of the increasingly important Monterey Car Week last weekend, there was another big even going on. The Woodward Dream Cruise is significantly lighter in terms of news, but there's no denying that it's a far bigger, and far more egalitarian than what the wine-and-cheese crowd experience on the links at Pebble Beach. The Dream Cruise crams tens of thousands of cars and over a million spectators along a four-lane ribbon of asphalt between Ferndale and Pontiac, MI. What's remarkable aren't these numbers, though, so much as the distances they travel. Owners and admirers come from far and wide, across the United States and in some cases across the globe, to take in the spectacle. This year, local radio and television coverage featured fans that traveled from Japan, Australia, and Europe, just to take in the cruise. Of course, we realize that not everyone can make the pilgrimage to Woodward Avenue. With that fact in mind, we decided to bring a bit of the Dream Cruise to Autoblog with a time-lapse video of the cruise route. You can experience the good (a Lamborghini Gallardo, Chevrolet Chevelle, and Oldsmobile Cutlass 442), the bad (the traffic jams), and the ugly (no, your 2003 Ford Focus does not qualify as a classic, get the hell out of the cruiser lanes). So join us, as we turn off 8 Mile Road behind the wheel of our 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat and run north, through Ferndale, Pleasant Ridge, Royal Oak, Huntington Woods, Berkley, Bloomfield Township, and Bloomfield Hills, before ending up on Wide Track Drive in Pontiac.

Watch Jay Leno drive an ex-highway patrol '61 Dodge Polara

Tue, May 17 2016

The latest vehicle to swing by Jay Leno's Garage is a 1961 Dodge Polara. This one was used by the California Highway Patrol half a century ago, ordered specially by the state police instead of the Darts that were usually used by law-enforcement. After sitting out in the sun for a few decades, it recently underwent a comprehensive, ground-up restoration by the historians and craftsmen at the Automobile Club of Southern California. As you can see for yourself, the result of the restoration is really quite stunning. The ACSC apparently spared no expense, bringing the 413-cubic-inch V8 back up to working order, along with the emergency lighting, radio, certified speedometer... the works. In the process they even found the engine cranked out more than the factory quote of 325 horsepower, recording 332 hp and 406 pound-feet of torque on the dyno. The Polara CHP cruiser hadn't even been back out on the freeway since the restoration was finished. But after getting the full run-down from the guys responsible for its resuscitation, Jay wasted little time in bringing it back to its natural habitat.

Dodge Charger and Challenger go Plum Crazy for Woodward Dream Cruise

Wed, Aug 12 2015

Dodge will be rolling through a purple haze at the 2015 Woodward Dream Cruise on August 15 with the reintroduction of Plum Crazy to the color options on most trims of the 2016 Challenger and Charger. To premiere the latest use of the wild shade, the brand's display at the annual Detroit-area automotive event will be showing off violet versions of the 2016 Dodge Challenger 392 Hemi Scat Pack Shaker and Charger R/T Scat Pack. The brash tone originally debuted in 1970, but Dodge has kept the lavender hue special in recent years by limiting the option to specific trims. It was last offered during the 2014 model year on R/T and SRT trims of the two vehicles. Practically any buyer will be able to go Plum Crazy if they want. On the Challenger, the color will be available on the SXT Plus, R/T models, Hemi Scat Pack Shaker, SRT 392, and SRT Hellcat trims. The choices for the Charger will be similarly broad, including the SXT when ordered with 20-inch wheels, R/T versions, SRT 392, and SRT Hellcat. Customers desperately wanting a vehicle in the insanely violet shade will be able to place the first orders in September, and dealers will get the chance from October through the end of the year. Production of the lavender muscle cars will then commence in November. Dodge Debuts Plum Crazy Heritage Hue for 2016 Challenger and Charger at Woodward Dream Cruise, Provides Collector-demanded Production Numbers for High-impact Paint Colors New 2016 Dodge Challenger 392 HEMI Scat Pack Shaker and Charger R/T Scat Pack Models in Plum Crazy Will Be Shown at the Dodge Display at 13 Mile and Woodward Ave in Royal Oak, Mich.
