1970 DODGE CORONET RESKINNED
The Coronet was completely reskinned in 1970, which included, on Super Bee models, a bold new face with twin-snorkel grilles, each side rimmed by it’s own chrome bumper. With the headlights peering out, it looks like someone looking through binoculars. It was a brave move, and some like it more than others. The body extended down the center between the twin grilles. It was all molded smoothly together, helping to streamline the somewhat boxy body.

1970 DODGE CORONET MODELS
The models and body styles were being constantly reshuffled. Where the base Coronet could come in standard form or Deluxe, the base car was dropped in ’69 so that the Deluxe now became the entry-level car in the lineup. Where before you could only get your Coronet 500 as a Hardtop or Convertible, by 1970, you could also order it as a 4-door Sedan and Wagon (with simulated woodgrain trim).
