1968 Dodge Coronet R/T Convertible

Among the great Mopar muscle cars of the late 1960s, few combine rarity, performance and open-air presence quite like the Coronet R/T Convertible. With only approximately 526 examples produced for 1969, the R/T Convertible was rare when new and is considerably more difficult to find today. A genuine, numbers-matching 440/4-speed example represents an especially desirable configuration.

This 1968 Dodge Coronet R/T Convertible is identified by VIN WS27L8G187482, confirming it as a genuine R/T Convertible originally equipped with Dodge's legendary 440-cubic-inch Magnum High Performance V8. The 440 Magnum was rated at 375 horsepower in 1969 and provided the effortless big-block torque that made the R/T one of Dodge's premier muscle cars. Even more desirable is the 4-speed manual transmission, giving this R/T the combination enthusiasts want: 440 cubic inches, three pedals and a convertible top. Importantly, the car retains its numbers-matching drivetrain and corresponding identification, including its fender tag and matching body/drivetrain numbers. The original 440 has been upgraded with an Six Pack induction system, utilizing three Holley two-barrel carburetors beneath the signature oval 440 Six Pack air cleaner. The aggressive matte-black hood and functional-style Six Pack scoop complete the period muscle-car appearance.

Finished in Hemi Orange  with contrasting black R/T graphics, the Coronet has tremendous presence. Chrome Magnum-style wheels wrapped in raised-white-letter BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires complete the classic Mopar stance, while the full-width rear R/T stripe emphasizes one of the most distinctive B-body profiles of the era.

Inside is a beautifully presented black bucket-seat interior featuring the desirable full-length center console, woodgrain trim, Rallye instrumentation and floor-mounted 4-speed shifter. The rear seating, door panels, dashboard and brightwork present cleanly, while the convertible configuration transforms the Coronet from serious muscle car to exceptional open-air cruiser. This is not simply another late-'60s Mopar—it's one of the lowest-production members of the Coronet R/T family, equipped with the drivetrain enthusiasts want and upgraded with one of the most recognizable induction systems of the muscle-car era.
