If you’re hunting for a genuine slice of Mopar history, this 1967 Dodge Coronet R/T convertible might check all the right boxes. Listed here on eBay, this survivor-grade drop-top reportedly retains its original 440-cubic-inch engine and automatic transmission, with a clean title and just 71,000 miles. The seller notes that the car is largely original aside from an older repaint and replacement top—both completed over 30 years ago. Survivor muscle cars in this condition don’t surface often, especially those with paperwork and numbers-matching credentials intact. Thanks for the tip Mitchell G.!
According to the listing, this Coronet R/T still wears its factory drivetrain, and both the fender tag and build sheet accompany the sale, two items that go a long way toward verifying originality. The brown exterior is said to have been refinished decades ago, but it still presents as a straight and solid car. The body is described as super clean and rust-free, with no major issues noted. The seller claims the convertible top was replaced at the same time as the paint, and while the years have added some patina, it remains a true survivor rather than a restored showpiece.
Under the hood sits the original 440-cubic-inch big-block V8, a hallmark of the Coronet R/T’s performance credentials. Aside from a replacement washer bottle, the engine compartment is described as untouched and authentic. The seller states that the car drives straight and true, suggesting the suspension and steering remain in fine working order for a 58-year-old convertible.
Inside, the Coronet continues the time-capsule theme. The interior is reportedly all original, including the upholstery, dash, and even the convertible boot cover. Impressively, every gauge and switch on the dash is said to function—including the factory radio—with only the clock being inoperable. Finding an original interior this complete and functional in a mid-’60s Mopar is no small feat.
The Coronet R/T was Dodge’s entry into the muscle car wars, offering big-block power in a refined package. Fewer than 1,000 R/T convertibles were built in 1967, making survivors like this extremely desirable among collectors. Whether you see it as a preservation candidate or a lightly refreshed cruiser, it’s an exceptional piece of Mopar heritage.
Would you keep this Coronet as an untouched survivor, or take it all the way with a full restoration?
A sweet looking RT ride convertible vehicle.
I know mopar stands for bring lots of money but being located within Ohio a couple underneath pics of frame, floor would confirm no rust …
Good luck with sale…
I believe consensus is 628 R/T convertibles in ‘67. 625 cars with 440s and 3 Hemis.
Correct – first year for a R/T anything – so the 1967’s are rare with the converts the rarest. And if you didn’t know – even the dual snorkel air cleaner is a one year only with the top divits……good luck – really nice car !
Very clean survivor here! A few undercarriage pictures would be nice! Finally a mopar without rust!
When not driving it , I’d just stare at it most of time
The 1968 Charger from last week sold for 53,000 dollars and would need a ton of work to look as clean as this car. For another 3,000 would much rather has this car not that i could afford either one i can still dream.
I noticed it lacks the tachometer on the council. R/T’s had one.
Tach was optional (as was the console actually). Locally there is a legit R/T convertible with column shift. First (and only one) I have ever seen.
NO…..it was an option….
No tachometer on the council? Didn’t R/T’s come with one?
Lovely looking car. 1966-67 are my favourite years for the Dodge Coronet.
Lovely looking car. 1966-67 are my favourite years for the Dodge Coronet. I hope this goes to a good owner, someone willing to take care of it and enjoy it. 🙂
This particular survivor i would leave untouched. Its in beautiful shape. But I think it would be fun to take a 1966 or 1967 Dodge Coronet convertible and put a ’66/’67 Charger front clip and taillights on it. People would look at it and say” I didn’t know they made a Charger convertible!” LOL
OK, I’ll let myself out.
Actually think there are a few out there…..they show up at Mopar shows….
The Mexican Coronets had the concealed headlights/grill a la Charger.

Someone on the Mexican Coronet said this Charger front clip would look good on a station wagon and I agree.
Diva may be onto something there, neat concept! I always thought that the production was 196 per Govier’s production books? I have an R/T convertible, rare car regardless.
Hi, It never gets old every time a old car pops up! Nice to see it. My uncle had the same car! I remember going outside to have a look it! He had a hot 60s girl in the passenger side!
