1965 Dodge Coronet Station Wagon AWB 1965 Wagon Altered Wheel Base One of my pet projects...

About this Mopar:

Since there seems to be considerable interest in engine and suspension fitment - especially with the pre-66 B-bodies, I decided to upload a few shots from my old 65 Coronet Station Wagon. It started life with a simple hemi combination, but quickly transpired into a full-on blown hemi altered wheelbase car.

The back end was tubbed to fit the big Hoosiers and the front suspension was moved forward 10". The hemi was a 528 with a 10-71 Supercharger and Stage V heads were added later.

For those daring enough, I've got the full AWB build up in photos. It's no small feat, and I only recommend it for the most die-hard of rodders.

I had the car 95% completed, and got ill. So ill, I had to (choke) sell the car. The engine went to a local racer, and the roller went upstate. Some retired fireman around Pittsburgh owns it now.

My current project is a 64 Dodge Polara and it's getting the 528 treatment as well. I'll post as I progress. I hope you enjoy the shots.

Thanks Ron, I appreciate the feedback. I really miss that car. It's somewhere in Pa right now, supposedly being restored by a retired fireman I heard.
