1970 Dodge Coronet 440 By Bryan & Shannon Durdle

 

This is my Mopar: "Super Bee Recreation" Our car started life as a basic 1970 Coronet 440 model w/a 318/904 drive train and factory A/C. Purchased in 2009 w/only 53,299 original miles on it I built what I would have bought back in 1970. Color is FC-7 Plum Crazy Purple w/white vinyl top/bench seat interior and reverse "C" stripe. The car retains all original sheet metal except of course for the hood which was replace w/a Bulge Super Bee hood. Everything was either replaced/repaired or restored on the car from bumper to bumper. It now has a 1971 HP 440 under the hood (disguised as a 383) with balanced six pack rods/balanced forged six pack crankshaft cut .0020/balanced to match pistons/rods/crank..030 cast flattop pistons/Mopar performance Hemi purple shaft cam kit w/.474 lift/heads are stock 906's that are planed, new guides and valve job. Also stainless steel valve seats installed w/stock valve springs...mated to an 833 4 speed pistol grip with sure grip out back and 355 gears. We belong to Maritime Mopars in Halifax Nova Scotia Canada. The restoration was finished in December of 2011 and we plan on adding many miles to the car as it was built to drive....

Special thanks to my wife Shannon for her support during the resto. Also to Jeffery Pastuck (Body & paint), Darrell Peck and my father Donnie Durdle (Mechanical)...
