Dodge Coronet the top muscle car in 1967? According to "Road Test Magazine".....

I find it interesting that those professional auto testers agree came to the same conclusion I did on handling. Although my personal experience with mid sized ford handling was not even close to my beloved A and B bodies.

Also interesting is that they mention tire technology several times.

I wonder if the GTX had a sway bar? Were the T bars adjusted the same?

Also interesting is the emphasis placed on lack of side molding.
Oddly enough, I do actually prefer the Coronet 440 trim to the 500, partially because of this.

I wonder how they managed to think the Mopar scoops were functional.
I thought they were professionals. They sure complained about the others enough.

Weight of cars is greatly affected by the options.
It would take a paragraph to list weights for all possible combinations.
Simply bench or buckets and or console, and power or manual steering and brakes can be a hundred pounds or more.

How much farther ahead would the Dodge have been on 15x7s with G70s??

I can also theorize that the somewhat mediocre 1/4 mile times were mostly because of those tires as well. These same cars, with 50,000 miles on them were turning better times in the 80's!

Huh, the also noted the mirror placement. I've always thought the 66/67 placement was MUCH better than the 68-70 placement, specifically due to head turning requirements.
