Overview of 1968 Dodge Coronet 500 For Sale by Owner

Dodge established a heritage of delivering amazing power through its powerful muscle cars, which have captivated fans for decades. This 1968 Dodge Coronet 500 is no different. After the plastic surgery of the redesign and reimagining of the Coronet in 1965, it quickly became one of the most popular vehicles in its line-up, with the 500 at the top of the line, with plenty of options to spare. This particular Coronet 500 is a two-door convertible with a soft roof ready to be used when necessary. It has undergone a complete ground-up restoration, returning to its former glory, ready to be appreciated by all, and with 157,000 miles recorded on the clock, this car has proven its mettle and is ready to be appreciated and enjoyed by many others for many years to come.

Exterior and Interior

Featuring the iconic muscle car design of the late 1960s, this 1968 Dodge Coronet 500 sports a bold design language, with powerful lines stretching from front to back. Subtle branding adorns the front, back, and sides of the orange exterior of the car that stretches far from front to back. Taking the top down, the Cornet becomes perfect for a casual cruise down memory lane or the closest backroads. Stepping inside, you'll find yourself welcomed into a comfortable, black interior space that is well preserved to the era when it first came out of the factory. The seats are comfortable and plush and the interior is spacious, cozy and the perfect place to be whether behind the wheel, or simply there for the ride. All the gauges and switches are in great condition in terms of appearance and truly create the best 'blast from the past,' look with the more modern Grant steering wheel and additional gauges, as well as the air conditioning unit breaking the immersion.

Engine

But that all fades away once you turn the key and ignite the massive monster that is the engine of this Coronet 500. Reported to have a massive 440ci V8 strapped to the front, taking up space under the hood, it delivers great power to accelerate rapidly through its four-speed manual gearbox driving the rear wheels. It's a marvel of a vehicle that continues to perform well, and there truly is nothing like the rumble of a V8, which can be your daily symphony should you choose to welcome this particular 1968 Dodge Coronet 500 home.

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.

Current Ask
$27,000

The 1992 Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo represents one of the most ambitious Japanese-American performance collaborations of the early 1990s, combining dramatic grand-touring styling with a sophisticated twin-turbocharged powertrain and an unusually advanced collection of chassis technology for its era. This example shows approximately 31,533 miles and is finished in Mistic Blue Metallic over a Black interior. Beyond its 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 and Getrag 5-speed manual transmission, the R/T Turbo specification brings period performance features such as active aerodynamics, electronically controlled suspension, four-wheel power disc brakes with ABS, and pop-up headlights. With relatively low indicated mileage and unmistakably early-'90s styling, this Stealth delivers the technology-heavy character that made the flagship R/T Turbo such a distinctive performance car.
