1965 Dodge Coronet A/FX Super Stock Hemi

This 1965 Dodge Coronet A990 Super Stock is a factory lightweight drag car powered by a 426ci Hemi V8 paired with a 727 Torqueflite three-speed automatic transmission. The two-door sedan was scheduled to be built on January 13, 1965 and was delivered to Western Dodge Sales and Service of Owensboro, Kentucky with fiberglass fenders and doors, a fiberglass deck lid and hood, fiberglass bumpers, and an altered wheelbase. The body was reportedly refinished in blue and silver as part of a refurbishment performed from 2007â??2009, and it wears graphics replicating the livery on the car when it was raced in the 1960s by David Heath. The engine is equipped with factory Alcoa-marked aluminum racing cylinder heads, an aluminum oil pump and oil pan, transistorized ignition, and a Hilborn stack injection system. Chassis modifications include a â??gasserâ?-style front axle with leaf springs and no front brakes. The exterior is finished in blue and silver with â??Kentucky Colonelâ? and â??Western Dodgeâ? graphics like it wore in the 1960s. The car was reportedly shipped new with fiberglass fenders, doors, hood, bumpers, and deck lid along with aluminum door hinges for weight reduction. The front and rear axles were moved forward so more weight was distributed over the rear wheels. American Racing wheels wear 10. 50â?³ x 15â?³ M&H Racemaster tires on the rear and 135 x 380 x 15â?³ Sport King tires at the front.
