Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to offer this mean 1965
Dodge Coronet 500. Named "Shaft" by its current owner of thirty-two
years, this 5-0-0 has kept the streets clean of automotive
riff-raff for decades. "It looks like wars coming, huh?" - Det.
John Shaft. It may not look like war is coming, but when this '65
Coronet comes down the street it sure sounds like it. A 431ci
stroker fitted with Edelbrock Performer Rpm aluminum heads and
intake manifold, a Holley carb, Pertronix ignition, and ceramic
coated headers waits to flex its muscle at every red light. Teamed
with a 727 TorqueFlite trans, a 2800 stall convertor, and a 3.91
Sure Grip, this combination of top shelf parts has propelled this
500 down the 1320 in the 11's. Can you dig it? If the music of the
431, putting almost 400hp and 500tq to the rear wheels on a soft
tune, isn't satisfying enough there's an am/fm radio with cassette
ready to blast some Jimi Hendrix. Finishing up the old school cool
combination are classic American Torq Thrust D wheels and four
wheel disc brakes. Oh, there's one last thing. The owner of "Shaft"
is a professional and well known automotive magazine editor so you
know this car is right. There are magazine articles and docs for
days that go with the car at the time of sale. In 1965 Dodge called
the Coronet - "The Animal Tamer." Mopar guys...what are you waiting
