History

The Coronet was a full-size car from Dodgein the 1950s, initially the division's highest trim line but, starting in 1955,the lowest trim line. In the 1960s, the name was transferred to Dodge'smid-size entry.

Coronet received a redesign in 1966, and afacelift in 1967. Trim levels initially were base Coronet, Coronet 440 andCoronet 500. Beginning in 1967, Chrysler decided that the Hemi should beavailable only in their badged muscle cars: the Dodge Charger and Coronet R/Tand the Plymouth Belvedere GTX. The top engine option for the rest of theCoronet line was supposed to be the 383 ci 4 bbl V8. Despite this, someHemi-powered 1967 Coronet Deluxe two-door sedans were produced.
