Mecum Indianapolis 2015 RestoMod Preview

May 5, 2015

1969 DODGE CORONET 440

The recipient of a rotisserie build completed in 2010 by Ozark Mountain Classics in Mountain Home, Arkansas, the car’s many great features are headlined by a 472 CI Mopar Hemi crate engine under the Blacked-out hinged fiberglass hood. The Elephant engine is fitted with Atomic electronic fuel injection, serpentine belt system and TTI headers and exhaust, and backed by a Legend LGT-700 5-speed transmission and 8¾-inch rear end. Slide link rear suspension and Mopar leaf springs locate the third member, while RMS AlterKation suspension and power rack and pinion steering are used up front. A Bosch Hydroboost master cylinder activates Wilwood four-wheel disc brakes behind the American Racing 17-inch Torque Thrust wheels.
