Coronet is a nameplate that’s been seen on Dodge models for various periods of time. The Coronet first appeared in 1949, on the highest trim line of Dodge’s full-size offering at the time. Then, it was used on Dodge’s midsized models between 1965 and 1976. That’s where today’s 1965 Dodge Coronet 500 from Largo, Florida fits in. This 51,209-mile coupe comes with a mega V8 under the hood. Coronet 500 was the highest trim level offered for the nameplate, and over its five year production run, over 200,000 Coronets of all trims were sold. In fact, the Coronet was Dodge’s highest-selling and most popular model in 1965! That’s another great reason to make this car your own, regardless of whether you’re a discerning collector of American classics, or a classic car newbie.
Exterior and Interior
This 1965 Dodge Coronet 500 comes with a bright red coat of paint because, why not? It’s a flamboyant car, after all, with its signature Sixties style, chrome grille, hood scoop and rakishly-raked front windshield. Naturally, it looks like a muscle car because, well, it basically is a muscle car. Its stylish black and silver wheels look the part too, and are wrapped with suitably chunky tires that don’t mind shedding some rubber in cloud form. The interior of this 1965 Dodge Coronet 500 has been extensively enhanced, we see. There’s an aftermarket steering wheel and tachometer prominently staring at you the moment you slide into the car’s black leather-upholstered driving seat. In fact, all seats are upholstered with black leather, and up to four adults can get comfy in this car. They’ll have a few creature comforts to enjoy, including a push-button radio, a heating and ventilation system, reading lamps and wind-up windows. But it only takes a mere glance at the gear shifter to know that this car’s true forte is taking on the quarter mile.
Engine
This 1965 Dodge Coronet 500 is a veritable drag special, with its enhanced 440ci V8 sending gobs of power to the rear wheels. You’ll be in control, thanks to the car’s manual transmission with Hurst pistol-grip style shifter. Factory specs place the power output at circa 425 horsepower, but we’re sure that there are a few tricks in this car to make it even speedier.
The 1970 Dodge Coronet R/T stands as one of Mopar’s most underrated yet formidable muscle cars, offering big-block performance in a clean, aggressive package. This example, finished in the highly desirable FK5 Dark Burnt Orange Metallic, captures the essence of the era with its bold color, factory styling cues, and unmistakable road presence. Showing just 25,907 miles, this Coronet R/T presents as a well-preserved piece of American muscle history. Powered by the legendary 440 Magnum V8 and paired with a TorqueFlite automatic transmission, it delivers the kind of effortless torque and straight-line performance that defined the golden age of muscle cars, making it an excellent choice for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
Initially launched as a full-size car, the Dodge Coronet moved to the midsize segment in 1965, for its fifth generation. Two further generations were made, and while the Coronet was meant to be a fairly luxurious offering, it also came with some potent engine choices. This particular 1970 Dodge Coronet R/T 440 from Columbus Grove, Ohio is of the R/T 440 trim and features a different front face to the regular Coronet line-up. The car comes with the powerful 440 Magnum under the hood, paired with a 3-speed TorqueFlite automatic transmission and the N96 Fresh Air Hood option with hood scoops. We’re also told that the original bumper is included with the sale, the current owner replaced it due to one minor bubble. That tells you how carefully and meticulously this car has been taken care of.
The Dodge Coronet has been a model with an identity crisis, of sorts. The nameplate has been used on full-size as well as midsize models. It’s represented top trim levels, as well as entry levels. Seen between 1949 and 1976, a total of seven Coronet generations were produced. Today’s 1956 Dodge Coronet 2-Door Sedan comes from the third generation, when the nameplate remained a full-size car, but was now more mainstream. Hailing from Somers, Connecticut, this all-original car comes with under 67,000 miles on the odometer and a catchy two-tone interior theme. You’ll also receive the factory Dodge service manual and owner’s literature with the sale of this car if you choose to take it home.
As Dodge prepared to end production of its legendary HEMI-powered muscle cars, the brand introduced a series of commemorative “Last Call” models to celebrate the end of an era.

Showing approximately 15,347 miles, this example is finished in elegant Silver Poly over a Black Vinyl interior and retains many of the features that made the GT trim a standout offering. Equipped with a 273ci V8, automatic transmission, and power steering, this Dart delivers a classic American driving experience wrapped in a stylish and increasingly collectible package.
The 1985 Toyota Celica Supra P-Type represents the golden era of Japanese grand touring, blending sharp styling, rear-wheel-drive performance, and impressive refinement into one highly desirable package. As the more performance-oriented variant of the second-generation Supra, the P-Type distinguished itself with aggressive factory styling and enthusiast-focused equipment that helped establish the Supra’s legendary reputation long before it became a turbocharged icon. Showing 127,627 miles, this Black example remains a compelling classic that’s equally suited for weekend cruising, collector events, or anyone looking to experience one of Toyota’s most influential sports coupes.
The 1987 Buick Regal Grand National stands as one of the most legendary American performance cars of the 1980s, proving that turbocharging could outperform the era’s traditional V8-powered rivals. Widely regarded as the pinnacle of Buick’s turbocharged G-body lineup, the final-year Grand National became an instant icon thanks to its sinister all-black appearance and formidable factory performance. Showing just 38,354 miles, this example retains the unmistakable character that made the Grand National a legend among enthusiasts. Disclaimer: Rebuilt shown on title.
The 1956 Chevrolet Sedan Delivery is one of the most distinctive utility vehicles of the Tri-Five era, combining the iconic styling of Chevrolet’s passenger cars with the practicality of a commercial delivery body. Showing 70,077 miles, this example has been transformed into a well-executed restomod that blends classic 1950s design with upgraded performance and drivability. Finished in red over a beige interior, it benefits from a 355ci V8, a TH350 automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, and a host of custom touches throughout.
