1965 A990 426 Race Hemi First Street Drive Dodge Coronet 09 04 2014

[@easygoing2479]

Brings back REAL memories from 40 years ago. 426 Hemis are BRUTAL.

[@chrisnizer5702]

Dodge wasn't even playing with the A-990 program. That's one of the most hardcore pieces of automotive pornography ever unleashed by an auto manufacturer. Thanks for sharing it with us my friend.

[@jaykay1426]

What an amazing machine

[@bb4836]

Look it up , A990 Mopar , had like a seven foot trunk because the rear end was moved up under the car for weight transfer. Factory MOPAR A/FX car , super rare!

[@bb4836]

I meant a990 A/FX

[@kenlassiter3107]

Nothin sounds as good as a hemi, thanks for that sound bite

I first saw the A990 Super Stock Automatic Dodge and a similar Plymouth run in the spring of 1965. After watching the Max Wedges run, the Race Hemi was so much faster. I can still see 2 of them race at the old Alton Dragway in Alton, Illinois. It was the Frawley Dodge vs El Toro, which is still racing today. They both ran low 11s @128 mph, times and speeds I had never seen Super Stock cars run before.

Love how those coronets just float down the road like riding on a bed of air

[@robkal56]

What like the sound of a race hemi. It is impressive for 55 year old technology.

[@w41duvernay]

Damn this car is loud. Watching this a t 1 am, I had to put it on pause so I wouldn''t wake up my roomates.

[@mariemackey6132]

Thanks for the ride. 👍

[@bradjacobs1844]

Nice car. When it's broken in you'll have to make a video of a full-throttle run.

[@robertsnyder5149]

If you are afraid of that, you would have had a coronary in my 70 Dodge Challenger R/T 440 Six-pak. It ean high 10's at SIR in Kent.

[@marksnow9274]

Let's go for ride Robert.

[@buildzmodz3871]

The 426 made more power than the 440 six pack tho... n this one doesn't look stock

[@robertsnyder5149]

@@buildzmodz3871 Only on paper. The 390 hp rating was for only 3,200 rpm and the torgue curve didn't quit till 5,200 rpm. I had mine dyno'd at Renton Vocational Tech after I did the heads and it had over 650 hp. I took it to S.I.R after that and turned a 10:93 at 133mph, Not bad for back in 1973.

[@buildzmodz3871]

@@robertsnyder5149 yeah that was also something I forgot to add, I had have no clue what you have done to yours so yes your correct, I see smaller engines with either less volume or less flow make more power thank a bigger liter engine but it goes both ways. Like the gutless 454 only made like 30hp more than the 350 (Stock) also depends on the application, gearing, weight, traction ect

[@HITEKSTRANGER]

Those poor rear tires when the Hemi lets loose!!! 👍😁❤🇨🇦

[@vikingrobot4179]

[@2cycle778]

The Horses were bigger in the 60s.

[@HITEKSTRANGER]

Did the hood blow off when you started it ?

[@brenthill3241]

Gee I think he got it up to 40.

[@Mr39036ce]

Nice ride! Where you find the "RADIO DELETE" plate?

[@bryanswilik651]

SSssuuuuuuiiiieeeEE , you weren't kidding you were afraid of the car ! Show a pic of the car why don't ya ? What a let down .

[@chadking464]

Nice car but damn the video was such a let down, not even a single cherp of the tires!

[@mustanghospital6254]

Absolute Man-$h.....

[@rickytimms1851]

That SUCKED !!!

[@darrenbrisson4336]

that's the slowest ride i've ever had to witness boy did that suck wow no finding a close secluded street and show everybody what it can do take it off and put a new video showing you planting it too the floor please.

[@mental_modeler2952]

darren brisson lol

[@bicylindrico]

Crimson that's not how you break in a new engine and it something was done wrong it wouldn't make a difference anyway. I agree with Darren

[@jenkemjones68]

Exactly! Very big letdown.Why the hell he didn't show us what these cars were made to do is beyond me.

[@hoost3056]

You should've let me drive it. Ain't scared, and I can handle a man trans without using a clutch........hehehe..... If ya gonna be afraid, put a 318 back in and save your nerves🤣

[@frostroxie2740]

Unless something is stinking... put that dang hood on while you drive!!!!!😳

[@canusakommando9692]

That is a very disgraceful ride! It looks like Southern Ontario, outside of the London area. That's what it looks like to me and these two have the right accent to be from around that area. Nice set of wheels! Didn't us old guys have hot wheels that looked like that? A 65 or 66 race hemi in a what? Belvedere? Higgy would be proud!!!

[@mental_modeler2952]

Oh, shut the fuck up

[@amc401nash6]

Being a gearhead I couldn't resist clicking on this video. The problem is, I'm a "anything but Mopar fan" so every time I click on a Mopar video like this, You Tube loads up my suggestions with Mopar stuff. So l gave the video a thumbs down for no other reason than the hope that doing so will put a stop to the unwanted suggestions. Could I be a closet Mopar fan? 🤔

[@dinojay8410]

I think you need to see a psychiatrist. They will help you sort out your mixed feelings ... the repressed affection for Chrysler and its muscle cars, your newfound addiction to Hemi videos, and more! Now, on another note, how would you describe your childhood? 😅😅👍 Jk ... I hope you're okay with a little playful banter!

[@amc401nash6]

@@dinojay8410 You're right, I probably do need to seek professional help. Problem is finding someone who specializes in repressed Mopar/Hemi issues.

[@klausvonschmit4722]

Not sure, about you being a closet Mopar guy but, definitely a closet blue oval guy!! Lol Honestly, having a AMC myself, I think one has to be a closet Blue Oval, and Mopar and GM Motors fan soon as they decide to build an AMC engine realizing AMC seem to borrowed a little bit from each manufacture!

[@HITEKSTRANGER]

True confession Bro. Come on over to "MOPAR OR NO CAR " team. Lol. We l9ve you regardless. We have to have someone to beat i guess. 👍😁
