“Cotton” Owens — with help from family, friends and a team of highly qualified craftsmen from the Spartanburg, S.C., racing community — built this 1964 Dodge Polara to replicate his original Polara race car.

But until you see a close up, you won't get a kick out of the headlight covers, maybe the coolest ones I've seen 

I think you'll agree, bitchin' spare parts use!

In the summer of 1962, a 65 year old woman got lucky, winning this 1962 Dodge Polara 500 in a Coca-Cola bottlers' sweepstakes. Then she drove it sparingly, only 9600 miles in 2 decades. It's got a pushbutton 3spd, a 361, and 323 gears

This 1962 Dodge Polara 500 two-door hardtop was the grand-prize giveaway in a sweepstakes drawing held by The Coca-Cola Bottlers of South Carolina in summer 1962. The car remained with its original owner and contest winner until 1983, and the seller and her late husband acquired the vehicle in 1986.

It's currently only bid to 15,500, and the auction ends in 2 days

another thing I get a kick out of, is the 60s local radio or tv station vans... here's the "News Cruiser" on the spot getting coverage of the Beatles 2nd Detroit concert (best way to get free access to the best concerts, work for a radio station)

64 Polara with 1969 - 72 hood scoops... interesting look.

1966 Polara kept in the family and recently restored to better than new

The console is from a 1968 Dodge Charger.

and the bucket seats are late-model Chrysler 300

someone with a time machine please go back and smack this kid upside the head before he gets his bike on the back of this car's good paint

I bet the damn bonehead is trying to figure out how to do BMX tricks

I can't recall if I ever saw rims like this, but I never saw a Polara with that rocker panel stripe

I'm guessing this is a 1969 or 70 from the side marker light in the fender

I've never seen a Dodge Polara with this side stripe

I've been waiting to find some photos of cars on the way to Woodstock, with the license plates showing... especially a VW Bug. Now its up to luck whether or not they still exist. At least now, if they are found, there's proof they were at Woodstock

It's my notion that if the above Bug were found, and that license plate is still on it, it makes someone REALLY happy to know it was at Woodstock. Same goes for any of the cars below that have a license plate visible

AAA has a 1961 Polara CHP Pursuit Special

the 383 engine dynod at 332HP 406 ft lbs.  Likely it's that powerful due to the 100 octane, 10.3 to 1 compression, and the hot cam from the dual quad 413



Ironically, it has a Jones speedometer

Irony because the Jones speedometers from 1910s or 20s were sold to civilians with a sign telling police to quit harassing drivers, as they KNEW how fast they were going with a Jones speedometer

someone is ebaying a NOS NIB 65 Polara trunk floor mat... for 35 bucks. That's a crazy good price for a restoration finishing piece

the Roadster Shop Polara

 

I mentioned this car a couple weeks ago:
http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2017/10/if-you-dig-60s-mopars-getting-upgraded.html

If you dig 60's Mopars getting upgraded, and The Roadster Shop work, and are going to SEMA, fyi, it's all coming together with a 64 Polara

chopper icon Jesse James (fan of his work, and in awe of his talent and experience, just not his personality) has The Roadster Shop working their mage level magic skills on this rough project.

As expected, James put his foot in his mouth when he just said this about SEMA " I haven’t really wanted to go to SEMA for at least 15 years or more. Just seems like minitrucker dipshits, giant dumb wheels, and clown builds that are just a huge waste of tubing and sheetmetal."

factory 440 4 barrel, 4 speed, 4 door 1968 Polara... still in the original owner family, with only 67k miles

not much to look at, but cool to know that they could order them back in the good old days.

1965, and Dodge was trying to get interest built up, and off the Mustang.

the 1964 Charger Show Car. This car was based on the Polara, and was supposed to be 426 wedge powered, but, they knew no one would be able to tell it was only a dressed up 383.

Manny's 1972 Polara

This has a great big "taking up your space, whatt'ya gonna do about it" vibe. Love it!

Thanks Manny!
