Hello All ! New here but have been a mopar guy since I went to Talladega in 1970 and saw Ricard Petty's 43 Superbird on track. I just bought a 69 Coronet 440 ( body style ) with a #'s matching 383 engine & trans. On the fender tag there is the "A40" option which decodes to " 1969 only dodge spring special B package " Does anyone know what that is ? Thanks for any help on this !
Welcome from NY. Do you have the whole car or just a fender tag? Hard to tell without ------ PICTURES!
Welcome from Ontario. A friend has one of these and did it up as a Superbee clone. We call it his Wanna Bee.
Here are some pics of the car. I am the 3rd owner. The guy I bought it from said he thinks the original owner added the vinyl top. I did see the A40 option said it also came with the light package and 3 speed wipers which the car has. Another thing is it has the rear defroster option.
Welcome aboard from the Pacific Northwest....Looks like you have a beautiful piece of history and great base to build your way and enjoy.
Yes it started out as a 383-2 but one of the guys before me put an edelbrock 383 performer intake and 4 bbl carb. I am guessing then that they also changed the exhaust manifolds as they are the HP ones not the logs I think it would have come with. Also the engine should be turquoise I think not orange. Oh and about that wing on the trunk, it is how do they say it ? Wing Delete ! I am leaning toward the wrap around stripe though
