Many Mopar fans were weekend racers in the 1960's and the Coronet R/T was a popular choice both on the
road and track. The R/T package included non-functional hood scoops and simulated rear fender air vents,
stiffer suspension, heavy duty brakes, and red streak tires. Production was 10,181, including 628 Convertibles.
The standard engine option was the Magnum 440 w/ 375 horsepower that was hooked to a four-speed or TorqueFlite transmission. One recorded '67 Coronet R/T finished 0-60 mph in 7.2 seconds, and the quarter mile in 15.4
seconds.
However the Hemi option was available on special order and for just under $1000.00 more you could
add this to your package. Only 238 Coronet R/T's were optioned with the Hemi engine.
