This 1966 Dodge Coronet 426 HEMI, born on April 27, 1966, and sold on June 16 that same year, is a true muscle car icon. Its silver exterior gleams with a quality repaint, showcasing the Coronet's aggressive lines and no-nonsense styling. The fastback profile cuts through the air with purpose, while 15-inch American Racing wheels wrapped in 225/75R15 front and 235/75R15 rear tires provide a fierce stance. Original bumpers display a patina that speaks to this Dodge's authenticity, complementing the overall presentation of a well-preserved piece of automotive muscle.
Step inside, and you're transported to 1966. The blue vinyl interior remains largely original, showcasing the era's design philosophy. Split-bench seats offer comfort with a sporty edge, while the column-mounted tachometer and oil pressure gauge keep vital information in clear view. The AM radio stands ready to play the hits of yesteryear, completing the time-capsule feel of this Coronet's cabin. Despite showing signs of use, the interior's originality adds to the car's appeal, offering a genuine glimpse into the muscle car era.
Lift the hood, and the star of the show is revealed - the legendary 426 HEMI V8. This powerhouse, believed to be the original engine, sports wrinkle finish valve covers and headers, hinting at the raw power within. The dual 4-barrel carburetors, recently rebuilt and restored, feed this hungry beast. Paired with a 3-speed A727 Torqueflite automatic transmission, this drivetrain delivers smooth shifts and ample acceleration. The dual exhaust system with Flowmaster mufflers provides a thunderous soundtrack, while drum brakes all around bring this muscle machine to a halt.
