Just picked her up recently from Tennessee. She's white with a black vinyl roof. She's stock right now with 2.76 gears but I have some plans for her. I'm going to change to 3.55 gears, put on an Edelbrock Performer RPM manifold with an Edelbrock 750 cfm carb,install Heddman headers and put in a Mopar Performance 280 degree cam plus a TCI 11'Breakaway converter. Heads are stock 906. I know this is a Dakota board. I have an '00 Club Cab 4.7 but I wanted to share my little story.

Cool - my first car was a '70 Coronet 440.

Mine was a '69 Charger. Well, the first car I identified with was when I wasn't even 2 yrs old. It was a black hardtop '68 Charger. Can we say Bullitt? Recently snagged a Blue '68 Coronet, all original, now in need of restoration. Gotta love those tank-like B-bodies! Do us all a favor and don't put her into a tree on a hard curve. Enjoy!

Thanks for the replies guys. The body has had some work done two it but only in two small places. It has a fresh paint job so it is cosmetically done. Toth Performance out of Eau Claire, PA is handling the engine work. I don't know if he has a dyno but he has a sweet '41 Dodge pickup and a '62 Dodge 330 drag car with a 440.
