| Restored by Marc Irvin with attention to factory details with 380 miles since completion. 440 Six Pack V-8 engine. 727 automatic transmission. B5 Bright Blue exterior. Convertible Black top. White interior. Console shifter. Includes letter and old registrations. 1 of 296 Coronet R/T convertibles made in 1970, of which 203 were made with the TorqueFlite 3-speed automatic transmission. 1970 was the final year for the Coronet. The Dodge Coronet R/T Convertible was a top-of-the-line model, and was the most expensive vehicle offered on this platform. |  |
 | Just 294 Coronets were built with the E86 Code 440/375 HP V-8 Magnum engine. All R/Ts came with performance suspension parts and frame changes as standard, and were also equipped with power steering. |
 | The 440 'Six Pack' 3×2 multiple carburetion mill cranked out 390 hp (option code E78, $119.05) and the very rare 'King Kong' 426 hemispherical-head engine was rated at 425 horses. (option code E74, $718.05). Chrysler records show that only two 1970 Dodge Coronet R/T convertibles with a HEMI engine were built. Cars were considered 'intermediate' in size, and featured a 209.7-inch overall length. They rolled on a 117-inch wheelbase with a 3,610-pound shipping weight. This example appears at Mecum. |
