For Sale: 1969 Dodge Coronet in St. Louis, Missouri for sale in Saint Louis, MO
Vehicle Description Featuring a complete redesign in 1968, the newly styled B-body Dodge Coronet showcased more shapely body lines and overall tougher muscle car presentation.
By 1969, the upscale R/T (Road & Track) model would have its own stand alone features to include simulated body side scoops forward the rear fenders, rear bumblebee stripe flanked by thin pinstripes, and a third center light between the rear taillights in a blacked out tail panel.
And when ordered with the Ramcharger fresh air system, which came standard with the 426ci Hemi, the hood gained two functional fresh air hood air scoops.
Coronet R/T hardtop production with a factory Hemi totaled only 97 units, of which only 39 came with a Torqueflite transmission! Offered here is a fully documented, all number matching 1969 Dodge Coronet R/T Hemi Hardtop finished in factory code correct Y2- Yellow over P6X- Black bucket seat interior with center console.
Options and features include its original 426ci Hemi 2x4bbl V8 engine factory rated at 425 horsepower, Torqueflite automatic transmission, Ramcharger hood intake system, power steering, Rallye instrumentation with 150mph speedometer and Tick-Tock tachometer, remote outside mirror, 3-speed wipers, roof rail drip moldings, wide body sill moldings, Music Master AM Radio, and 14 Magnum 500 wheels! This very special Coronet R/T Hemi Hardtop comes with a very well documented history with its earliest known ownership out of California.
Restoration receipts provided show a Sharpsburg, Georgia owner by 2002, who would commence a professional engine rebuild by specialist Gerald Wright of The Wright Performance in Ball Ground, GA.
He comes well known in the MOPAR circles for building some serious stuff! The original, number's matching block would be cleaned, inspected, measured, and magnafluxed prior to the overhaul.
After a power hone to the cylinder bores, it would receive new forged JE pistons (+.

According to the Galen Govier Authenticity/ Chrysler Registry report, this rare Coronet R/T Hemi hardtop is 100% correct and number's matching and represents one of just 39 Hemi/Automatics built for the 1969 Coronet R/T model year.
This is a very early car and was original fitted with option W23-cast center (aluminum) wheels by Kelsey-Hayes which were later discontinued by Chrysler.
They are equally rare and hard to find today, and this wonderful vehicle comes with a correctly dated set with unused Firestone F70-15 red stripe tires fitted to impress friends and judges at the car shows! Also included will be an original broadcast sheet, all GTS certification paperwork, original cast iron Hemi heads, restoration receipts, and past ownership documentation.
This presents a very rare opportunity to own a super special Hemi MOPAR that checks all the right boxes for a long-term BlueChip investment! It hasn't been offered to the market in 17 years, and we don't expect it to last very long! Thanks for looking!.
