1954 Dodge Coronet

One of the most powerful cars in its price range, the Dodge Coronet for 1954 could be equipped with a 150-horsepower, 241-cubic inch Red Ram Hemi V-8 that was introduced the previous year. The potent engine enabled Dodge to win acclaim during 1954 by steering numerous AAA Stock Car speed records, winning its class in the Mobilgas Economy Run and pacing the Indianapolis 500 race. Always owned in Southern California, this Suburban wagon retains its original accessory equipment such as a three-speed overdrive transmission, factory painted wire wheels, illuminated hood ornament, dual mirrors, electric clock, seven-button radio, and fresh-air heater.
