First time poster from chilly Minnesota - 65 Coronet Hemi

[65dc440]

Just making my fist post - not exactly an expert here. Currently own a 65 Coronet 440 that's one week from being powered by a HP 383 to being powered by 5.7 Hemi from a '12 Charger R/T. Have had the car for 20 years and always been a traditionalist regarding the looks and the mechanics. Must be mid-life crisis, because I finally made a decision to modernize the drivetrain. Open to any mid 60's B-Body dialogue, especially '65's.

Great looking car. Good luck with upgrades and post pics of it. I have 65 Coronet 500 that I'd like to modernize one day. I'll be interested in seeing how yours goes and the pro's and con's of the switch.
