1967 HEMI Coronet Takes On a 392 Challenger Scat Pack

I’m sure the most passionate Mopar enthusiasts and drag racing fans have heard of Jim Keyes and his 1967 Dodge Coronet R/T. The 426 HEMI powered Mopar lives 1/4 mile at a time and was featured in Hemmings.com in the past.

Back in 1966 at the age of 20, Jim Keyes was working as a mechanic at a Mercury and Rambler dealership. He had a convertible ’65 Coronet at the time and wanted to trade it for a HEMI car, which he could race in Super Stock D automatic.

As you already figured, Jim is the original owner of this 1967 Dodge Coronet R/T. He raced the B-body back in the day, then had it restored to showroom new in 2007, and entertains the crowd at Pure Stock Drags and FAST series ever since.
