We have all heard of the Super Birds, the Cudas and Chargers.  But how many of you know about the 1965 Dodge Coronet that you could special order with the A990 Hemi package?  Well you are looking at a great tribute to this rare Mopar.

It was construction by the Crosswhite brothers of Mopar Super Stock fame. When they decided to build this car,  they wanted to make it as close to the original as possible.  And you will have to agree that they did a great job.

The thing that really makes this car is the huge 426 Hemi Ramcharger power plant under the hood.  The first thing you see is the Dick Landy prepared Cross Ram aluminum intake with twin Holley 770 cfm carburetors.  Then you will notice the 2 vintage 65 aluminum heads that have been meticulously machined and equipped with Mopar stainless valves. The block was prepared using some tricks that the brothers had learned from running these massive motors down the drag strip at over 7,500 rpm for the last quarter of a century.  They know what it takes to make these motors not only put out maximum power,  but to last. With its 10.5 to 1 pistons and .557 lift solid lifter cam shaft,  this machine is Hemi power at its best.  Backed up by a built A883 4 speed transmission and a bullet proof Dana 60 rear end equipped with 35 spine axles and 4:10 gears,  this car will snap your head back with every shift.

The body of the car was prepared just like the originals and is straight as can be with not a speck of rust to be found.  It is covered in a beautiful House of Kolor Intense Blue metal flake paint that glistens in the sun. The interior is done in tan and is right on with its rear seat panel and block offs for the radio and heater delete. With American Racing Hopster wheels (4 inch up front and 15X10 in rear)  the car has just the right stance.

If it were not for us telling you this was a tribute car,  not even the biggest Mopar enthusiast would know it was not the real thing.  The detail that went into its construction is apparent from the front bumper to the rear.  It was a feature car in the February 2008 issue of Mopar Muscle magazine as shown in the pictures below.
