| Rare mopar muscle! Dodge Polara 2-door hardtop. For Sale (1966) edit C51998 | | | Rare, low, long, cool and evil-looking 383 cubic inch (6.7 litre) 2-door dodge big-block mopar muscle car for sale.
Please do not underestimate how hard it is to find a rust-free and original "survivor car" like this, which has just been shipped from the usa. It is now uk registered, mot'd until june 2009 and of course is tax exempt.
It is a very original matching numbers 1966 dodge polara 2-door pillarless hardtop showing around 110k miles with 383cid big-block engine option, strong re-lined drum brakes all round and a newly re-built 3-speed automatic transmission with column shift.
A "West Coast" Oregon car (no road salt) this impressive and rust-free c-body is still wearing its' original dark metallic green paint with numerous scratches and imperfections but fabulous patina. Personally, I wouldn't paint it as it wears it's 42 years with pride, but new paint on this body style would of course make it stunning. Your choice.
It has a really excellent black bucket seat interior with new headliner, carpets, trunk mat (still new in box), straight doorcards and a wonderful looking original dash with no cracks & the original in-built "Dodge Music Master" radio. It rolls on period correct vintage 14" american racing 5-spoke "a" wheels (not the modern impression) with fully treaded wide BF Goodrich Comp T/A tyres. I can swap these for an excellent set of very wide chrome steels and hubcaps (10" wide rears) if you prefer.
The car has recently had a thorough and fully documented mechanical overhaul in the USA before shipping including the rebuilt transmission, completely re-bushed suspension using oem parts and with a 1 ¼" Firm Feel front sway bar added, brand new power steering pump and rack, new brake shoes (drums all round and very strong), new fluids & filters throughout, original oregon number plates and tag plus a period column mounted "sun" tachometer and seatbelts front & rear.
It is now mot'd and uk "historic" registered, so is tax exempt. It is seriously good fun to drive or be driven in and sounds like thunder with a new custom-made dual exhaust system. Scare as many pedestrians as you like.
This dodge sits right, runs strong and looks way better and more interesting than anything else you are ever likely to meet on the road. I am not aware of another in the U.K. and with very few survivors of this model even in the us it represents a rare and exclusive mopar muscle find. Miss this and there simply won't be another one!
My asking price is less than it cost to buy it, improve it, ship it and pay all the taxes & duties but unfortunately for me, business means that i must sell!
You can call me on 07932 678546 anytime but please leave a message if I don't pick up as I often have poor reception where I live.
I am happy to help you with shipping arrangements in the UK or EU as I have some contacts in the business.
