That's a georgeous '65 Coronet. Brings back some fond memories of my 65 coronet ex Florida highway patrol interceptor. .It was 1969. I was 21 and had just returned home from Vietnam. I got stationed down at Ft Rucker Alabama, and was out cruising the area and just happened to see this white 4 door dodge on a used car lot. I traded my '60 impala 6 cylinder +$400.00 Believe me when I say I had a ball with this "SLEEPER". It would easily, and without a struggle, handle anything out there. The Police suspension made it handle and ride like a dream. Total police package 426 wedge, w/auto. I was King of the road in '69 in my police interceptor ✌🇺🇸

[@tcjohnson3437]

Beautiful car ! To say its a "Galaxie Killer" is a little biased. Lol, both great cars. This one shows better than any I've seen. Wish I would have known about it when it was being sold.

[@maximuswedgie5149]

I have a 65 Coronet 500 and I can tell everyone from years of experience working on these that this car is unbelievably clean and perfect. People don’t realize that the Mopar aftermarket catalogue starts at 1966 for almost ALL the parts. Finding anything parts for this car is extremely difficult. This is truly one of the best I’ve seen. Seriously.

[@BulletmotorsportsInc]

Ryan David I wish I never sold it

[@maximuswedgie5149]

BulletmotorsportsInc mine is almost identical, same 451 motor, rims but Indian turquoise. I’m in Denver and considering selling.

[@shanew.williams]

maximuswedge....Everything you said about parts being HARD to find for a '65 Coronet is absolute TRUTH because it's a one year only body style. I have a '65 Coronet, 440 4 speed "project" car. A project for the past 6&1/2 yrs that runs & drives. But i can NOT find interior pieces (new or used) at any reasonable price.

[@maximuswedgie5149]

@@shanew.williams yeah, it’s really tough man, almost better to get a donor a car if you can get lucky. I did notice in the Mopar classic industries book that there are some interior pieces, I was surprised to see the seat covers and the foam. If you have your dash, you can get some old D Dash 100 van seats. That would look sick. is there something in particular that you’re looking for? I’ve been looking for the trunk piece that goes across the entire trunk for eight years at swap meets and I can’t find one. I’m sure that someone’s got one hanging in their garage somewhere. LOL.

[@shanew.williams]

Yes@@maximuswedgie5149 i have the Classic Industries catalog. (I just can't afford their prices in the special "bits & pieces" but i doo order some mechanical from them, I need the WHOLE interior "panels" (door panels,sail panels,rear side panels (under the rear quarter glasses). I scavenged many bits & pieces from a 4 door ex police car, including a pristine red dash with steering column,wheel shifter etc. I DO need the rubber boot where the clutch rod goes thru tthe firewall (not paying $75) and i need the biggest round plastic stoppers that go in the trunk.

[@jeffring2023]

Incredible, stunning coronet.

[@bruceh92]

4 years ago, bet it sold really fast. But a thrill to view this rare, mint, Mopar classic. I love everything about it in fact. Someone's happy.

[@martymartin7637]

Killer ride all the way!

[@travp959]

Love it ,one of my favorite cars of all time. I have a 65 dart. With a few changes from original. The dash is from a barracuda and engine is a 360 out of I think 70's dodge ram charger. Built to around 350 hp. Have a great day everyone

[@RossEphgrave]

My gosh, what a beautiful car! I bought a new car last year, it didn’t shine or impress with newness like this 50 plus year old classic! Great job!

[@gene978]

Jonathon, You’re giving this Bad Boy AWAY I just seen the price. It’s going to be gone by morning! W0W

[@B25gunship]

That's a minty mint 65. I had one when I came back to the states while in the Navy in 1969. Drove it till 72. Mine was white, black interior, auto on the floor, and 383 4bbl. with duals. I don't know if it came with Mallory dual point distributor or someone put it in but it had one. Always sounded like it might have been cammed a little also. Blast to drive and it kept up easily with 383 Roadrunners. Memories.

[@johnholzhey8149]

Best looking Dodge ever built. I had one that had red metallic paint with black interior. It had a 360 single two barrel. Hated to get rid of it.

[@vikingrobot4179]

Man that’s gorgeous. Definitely my favorite B body Mopar and I love seeing them come up to the beam at the drag strip. I would probably trade my 500 Horsepower small block Barracuda for this car.

[@normanjones5167]

Would never kill a 1965 galaxies r code 427 side oiler . It couldn’t do it back in the day unless it had the 426 hemi. But it is a good looking great sounding car, but don’t write no checks you can’t cash son. It hooks because with that high gear it can’t spin .But I am glad you toddlers are taking interest in real cars.

[@1982MCI]

Lol Norman, well said brother!! I hope they don’t get offended too much by it but it is nice that they are taking interest in the real ones nowadays and trying to keep the ones that are left alive now

[@normanjones5167]

@@1982MCI when I tell younger guys about my 63 300 q code which was really rarer than the light weights they don’t know what either one is. I know one thing that 352/360 h.p. Starliner is rare in number and to have survived in tact. That is the first high performance fe, and it’s in the sport model. You can read the specifications and models available in the book Fearsome Fords. It shows a 76 unocal sponsored 60 Starliner getting prepped for nascar. That book if still in publication is pretty accurate on the performance fords of the 1960’s

[@lolbr6818]

In those days. Us kids didnt have slicks. Cars then were developed for & prepared for use with street tires. Tires before radials were always struggling to keep up with increased power year after year. The tuna boat fat girls would hook up pretty good with coils & weight trancferance . The G 60 14s on my 64 SS Impala would be screamin but that front went up & back went down moving the car forward, with a quicknees . Quick enough to take on the 68 & 69 383 Road Runners in my world. Different tech then. We were evolving ... 327s

[@zeezotjehh7678]

I love that car amazing 🤩awesome job guys🤩🤩

[@judgejimbobrowntown7600]

What a car that 427 was one of the best motors ford made!!!!! My neighbor has a 641/2 it’s awsome red on red

[@richardromero2707]

Awesome ride

[@heavenstomurgatroyd7033]

Cool. I had a 64 Polara 500, the interior was identical. If you put radials on them they handled too, to the point your could get the hubcaps to fly off on really windy roads, like highway 1 in Marin county. I also had a 64 Galaxie 500 and it seemed big by comparison......nice car brings back memories......thanks!

[@billfeld5883]

You get too drive some fantastic car's from a day gone bye! As a mechanic I've gotten to drive a wide variety of car's can't really say which one was the best, the one that was the most fun Was my friends 327,56 t-bird pulling 2nd gear and flat out flying, pulling 2nd gear in a 427 corvette seemed to me to be slower for a 1/10or2/10 than would light out ,great car's you have , Covid-19 doesn't care about people! Take care of yourself

[@danpals7678]

I had a 70 500 for years in college. 383 727Torqueflite very fast. I just bought a 66 Charger with only 80k miles on it. Scary fast!

[@stevemason5173]

Ain't going for the "Galaxie Killer" bit... Slap all that after market shit on a 427 Galaxie and stroke it as well, and I believe the race would depend on the drivers. Mopar, Ford, and Chevy all were powerful cars in the 60s Muscle Car era...

[@daw162]

Except someone sneaking in with a 427 FE. Nothing touched them, but probably few had them.

[@happydays8171]

In another video he's got a 63 Galaxy w/427 fe, black also. Obviously someone put the 427 in there w/2 4 barrel carbs. It had a serious hesitation when he'd hammered it. This one seemed to take off seemlessly.

[@anthonytomaro8278]

You can get a 427 in a 65 Galaxie and it’s Mercury counterpart. But once you started comparing modified cars to stock cars, it’s all thrown out the door. Just remember that 427 and Hemis are/were rare cars. You much more more likely to find race a 390 Galaxie or 383 Coronet

[@anthonytomaro8278]

Happy Days the Galaxie had 23000 original miles. Engine was not modified.

lol....he said no filler......you don't get paint that slick without using filler to level up the surfaces.

[@1982MCI]

There isn’t an issue with using filler at all if it’s used properly and for the right reasons which it appears this one was

I am not an expert or a purist but that car looks like it has come through a time warp.... Just how it would have been, just as it should be. Not rubbishing the more high dollar cars - they are something else - but this is a no-nonsense car and it's all the better for it !

[@J.Ray1776]

400/451 cubic inch: 3.75 stroke x 6.76 rod, 4.375 bore 1.320 CH piston. One of the original stroker kits for big block Mopars. These kits are nothing more than a 440 built with a really light piston. 3.750 x 6.760 (440 stroke and rod) but because the block is 3/4”shorter, the piston is 3/4” shorter and literally half the weight. We use a new 4340 steel crank and rods with your choice of forged pistons. Rings, bearings and balancing included. #Musclemotorsracing.com

[@trevorwilson5461]

Would never touch a 427 SOHC Galaxie .my father was dynoed at 533 Bhp. Only thing changed was 3" exhaust and ceramic headers.true "R"code.he bought it new at 21 and still dips the tach in the red every opportunity.and he is 79.he will only street race. Can't get it out of his blood .it needs to be freshened up,but not restored.

[@charlieweke2914]

This guy likes slamming doors ,😂

I know right? Those doors are made and adjusted to be closed gently. Same for the hood and trunk.

Decent looking car, but the Galaxie was not it’s direct competition. Fairlane.

Be careful driving with unsecured lug wrenches in the trunk. To easy when playing around to get outward dents
