An excellent example of a true pavement pounding beast that made these B-bodies feared muscle cars on the street and track.. First off if you are at all familiar with anything R/T,,, you will agree that the correct tail lights, moldings, emblems, name plates, dash, etc... Are very hard to get your hands on even the remanufactured pieces... ( This car has it!!! ).Very solid undercarriage, firewall, and trunk floor.Strong running 440 V8727 Automatic TransmissionBuckets and consoleLike new vinyl power topNew correct exhaust system with "H" crossover, hooked to correct exhaust manifolds and exhaust tips.Chrome Magnum 500 wheelsStainless Rocker Moldings"Bumble Bee Tail Stripe" adds to the R/T Muscle LookThis Coronet is very solid and will give you pride of ownership.The driveline runs well and performs as it should.I can not find the trim tag and therefore have not been able to decode options or if this is a tribute to the mighty R/T. I can tell you that this car drives and feels great with its Big Block and driveline also being packed with the right options and trim to make it an exceptional ride.Body is solid, this car was painted quite sometime ago and the bottom of the rear quarters and in the lower front of rear wheel openings has some bubbles and rust breaking through,,, (very typical for convertibles) paint is driver's quality however it still has a lot of shine and looks great for it's age. I have seen these cars sell for thousands more in need of serious repairs. This is a great car for the money and cheap enough so you can continue restoring while enjoying it. I always attach links to wikipedia for more history on the cars, I find it interesting about their role played in our past and how they've shaped our future. Read it and enjoy... Good luck bidding!!! 1968–1970 The Coronet and similar Plymouth Belvedere received complete redesigns in 1968, as did the Dodge Charger, which shared the B-body platform. There was a mild facelift in 1970. Trim levels initially included the base Coronet, Coronet Deluxe, Coronet 440, Coronet 500 and Coronet R/T. The Coronet Super Bee was introduced in early 1968 as a companion to the Plymouth Road Runner. In keeping with Dodge's position as a step above Plymouth, the Super Bee shared the Charger's Rallye instrument cluster and the Coronet 440's rear finish panel. As in 1967, the 440ci RB V8 was only available in the Coronet R/T in 1968. The 426ci Hemi V8 was supposed to be limited to the R/T and Super Bee, but two 1968 Coronet 440s are known to have been built with this engine. In mid-1969, the A12 package was introduced on the Super Bee. It included a 390 hp (291 kW) version of the 440 with three 2bbl Holley carburetors on an aluminum intake manifold, a black fiberglass lift-off hood secured with metal pins, heavy-duty suspension and 15" steel wheels with no hubcaps or wheel covers. The hood had an integrated forward-facing scoop which sealed to the air cleaner assembly and bore a decal on each side with the words "SIX PACK" in red letters, "Six Pack" being the name used for the 6-bbl induction setup when installed on a Dodge (Plymouth went with "440 6bbl" on the A12 Road Runners). The A12 Super Bee could be had with most Super Bee options, with the exception of air conditioning and tire-wheel packages. The A12 option was a 1969-only package, but the 440 6bbl returned in 1970 as an optional engine on both the Super Bee and the Coronet R/T. The base Coronet and Deluxe were available as 2-door coupes, 4-door sedans or station wagons. The base Coronet was dropped in 1969, leaving the Deluxe as the lowest trim level through 1970. The Coronet 440 convertible was dropped for 1968, but a 2-door coupe was added along with the 2-door hardtop, 4-door sedan and station wagon. This would remain the lineup through 1970. Coronet 500 retained its 2-door hardtop, convertible and 4-door sedan through 1970. A Coronet 500 station wagon made its debut in 1968, continuing through 1970. Simulated woodgraintrim was standard on the Coronet 500 wagon. The Coronet R/T 2-door hardtop and convertible continued through 1970. The Super Bee was only available as a 2-door coupe or 2-door hardtop. Chrysler did display a convertible with Super Bee stripes at car shows in 1968, but never offered it as a production model. Some enthusiasts have created "phantom" Super Bee convertibles by adding the appropriate trim and stripes to Coronet 500 convertibles. 1969 Dodge Coronet Super Bee The Dodge Super Bee was a limited production muscle car from Dodge division produced from 1968-1971. The original Super Bee was based on the Dodge Coronet, a 2-door model only and was produce from 1968-1970. It was Dodge’s low-priced muscle car, the equivalent to Plymouth Road Runner, and was priced at $3,027. Available with Hemi engine, this option increased by 33%, only 125 models were sold with this engine option. The Super Bee included a heavy-duty suspension, an optional Mopar A-833 four-speed manual transmission, with high performance tires, and a stripe (with the bee logo) wrapped around the tail. The name "Super Bee" was derived from the "B" Body designation given Chrysler's midsized cars which included the Coronet. 1968 Dodge Coronet 500 1970 Dodge Coronet Super Bee A “six-pack” (three two-barrel carburetors) version of the 440 engine was added to the list mid-year. This engine was between the standard engine and the Hemi as a $463 option. The 1969 model year gave customers several engines to choose from, the base 383 hp (high performance), 440 six pack, and the 426 Hemi V8. The 440 Magnum (4bbl) was not available as an option, it was reserved for the Coronet R/T. In 1970, the Super Bee was given a different front end look that consisted of a dual ovaled grill that was referred to as “bumble bee wings”, this new look turned off many buyers. Despite the new looks, the engines, as well as the “ramcharger” hood (that carried over from 1969 model), sales plummeted for the 1970 model. In 1970, Dodge also produced four Super Bee convertibles; the whereabouts of the four cars are unknown.

1968 Dodge Coronet 500 R/T "Convertible"...

An excellent example of a true pavement pounding beast that made these B-bodies feared muscle cars on the street and track..

First off if you are at all familiar with anything R/T,,, you will agree that the correct tail lights, moldings, emblems, name plates, dash, etc... Are very hard to get your hands on even the remanufactured pieces... ( This car has it!!! ).

  • Very solid undercarriage, firewall, and trunk floor.
  • Strong running 440 V8
  • 727 Automatic Transmission
  • Buckets and console
  • Like new vinyl power top
  • New correct exhaust system with "H" crossover, hooked to correct exhaust manifolds and exhaust tips.
  • Chrome Magnum 500 wheels
  • Stainless Rocker Moldings
  • "Bumble Bee Tail Stripe" adds to the R/T Muscle Look
  • This Coronet is very solid and will give you pride of ownership.
  • The driveline runs well and performs as it should.
  • I can not find the trim tag and therefore have not been able to decode options or if this is a tribute to the mighty R/T. I can tell you that this car drives and feels great with its Big Block and driveline also being packed with the right options and trim to make it an exceptional ride.
  • Body is solid, this car was painted quite sometime ago and the bottom of the rear quarters and in the lower front of rear wheel openings has some bubbles and rust breaking through,,, (very typical for convertibles) paint is driver's quality however it still has a lot of shine and looks great for it's age.

I have seen these cars sell for thousands more in need of serious repairs.

This is a great car for the money and cheap enough so you can continue restoring while enjoying it.

I always attach links to wikipedia for more history on the cars, I find it interesting about their role played in our past and how they've shaped our future.

Read it and enjoy...

Good luck bidding!!!

1968–1970

The Coronet and similar Plymouth Belvedere received complete redesigns in 1968, as did the Dodge Charger, which shared the B-body platform. There was a mild facelift in 1970. Trim levels initially included the base Coronet, Coronet Deluxe, Coronet 440, Coronet 500 and Coronet R/T. The Coronet Super Bee was introduced in early 1968 as a companion to the Plymouth Road Runner. In keeping with Dodge's position as a step above Plymouth, the Super Bee shared the Charger's Rallye instrument cluster and the Coronet 440's rear finish panel.

As in 1967, the 440ci RB V8 was only available in the Coronet R/T in 1968. The 426ci Hemi V8 was supposed to be limited to the R/T and Super Bee, but two 1968 Coronet 440s are known to have been built with this engine.

In mid-1969, the A12 package was introduced on the Super Bee. It included a 390 hp (291 kW) version of the 440 with three 2bbl Holley carburetors on an aluminum intake manifold, a black fiberglass lift-off hood secured with metal pins, heavy-duty suspension and 15" steel wheels with no hubcaps or wheel covers. The hood had an integrated forward-facing scoop which sealed to the air cleaner assembly and bore a decal on each side with the words "SIX PACK" in red letters, "Six Pack" being the name used for the 6-bbl induction setup when installed on a Dodge (Plymouth went with "440 6bbl" on the A12 Road Runners). The A12 Super Bee could be had with most Super Bee options, with the exception of air conditioning and tire-wheel packages. The A12 option was a 1969-only package, but the 440 6bbl returned in 1970 as an optional engine on both the Super Bee and the Coronet R/T.

The base Coronet and Deluxe were available as 2-door coupes, 4-door sedans or station wagons. The base Coronet was dropped in 1969, leaving the Deluxe as the lowest trim level through 1970.

The Coronet 440 convertible was dropped for 1968, but a 2-door coupe was added along with the 2-door hardtop, 4-door sedan and station wagon. This would remain the lineup through 1970.

Coronet 500 retained its 2-door hardtop, convertible and 4-door sedan through 1970. A Coronet 500 station wagon made its debut in 1968, continuing through 1970. Simulated woodgraintrim was standard on the Coronet 500 wagon.

The Coronet R/T 2-door hardtop and convertible continued through 1970.

The Super Bee was only available as a 2-door coupe or 2-door hardtop. Chrysler did display a convertible with Super Bee stripes at car shows in 1968, but never offered it as a production model. Some enthusiasts have created "phantom" Super Bee convertibles by adding the appropriate trim and stripes to Coronet 500 convertibles.

1969 Dodge Coronet Super Bee

The Dodge Super Bee was a limited production muscle car from Dodge division produced from 1968-1971. The original Super Bee was based on the Dodge Coronet, a 2-door model only and was produce from 1968-1970. It was Dodge’s low-priced muscle car, the equivalent to Plymouth Road Runner, and was priced at $3,027. Available with Hemi engine, this option increased by 33%, only 125 models were sold with this engine option. The Super Bee included a heavy-duty suspension, an optional Mopar A-833 four-speed manual transmission, with high performance tires, and a stripe (with the bee logo) wrapped around the tail. The name "Super Bee" was derived from the "B" Body designation given Chrysler's midsized cars which included the Coronet.

A “six-pack” (three two-barrel carburetors) version of the 440 engine was added to the list mid-year. This engine was between the standard engine and the Hemi as a $463 option. The 1969 model year gave customers several engines to choose from, the base 383 hp (high performance), 440 six pack, and the 426 Hemi V8. The 440 Magnum (4bbl) was not available as an option, it was reserved for the Coronet R/T.

In 1970, the Super Bee was given a different front end look that consisted of a dual ovaled grill that was referred to as “bumble bee wings”, this new look turned off many buyers. Despite the new looks, the engines, as well as the “ramcharger” hood (that carried over from 1969 model), sales plummeted for the 1970 model. In 1970, Dodge also produced four Super Bee convertibles; the whereabouts of the four cars are unknown.
