Vehicle Description
Original, authentic and beautiful are a few of the words that
describe this car. It has had only 2 owners since it was new and
they kept everything from the original sales brochure, window
sticker and owners-manual as well as receipts of the services
performed along the way. If your preferences tend toward classic
cars that are extremely well documented and original, we think you
will find this car very appealing and are likely to become its 3rd
owner. Check it out.
Dodge did a great job when they redesigned the '63 model to be
smaller, lighter and more sculpted than its predecessor. The
original owner of the car also did a great job in selecting the
color of Polar White with a Red accent down the side. Of-course
being a mid-sixties car means that there is some beautiful chrome
dressing it out too. At the front of the car a segmented grill of
vertical bars leads the way with two of the four headlights set
into it underlined by a sharp looking chrome bumper while the other
two headlights are perched on the ends of the fenders with chrome
bezels. The fender wells and rocker panels are trimmed with chrome
piping and Polara appears in script on the front fender with 500
gracing the sail panel and the Red accent down the side is outlined
in nicely polished stainless. The back of the car kind of starts on
the side with a piece of polished trim blending into a simple and
clean looking rear bumper that wraps around and under the chrome
trimmed taillights.
Open the door and you will find an all original condition interior
in Alabaster and Red. It is in great shape with just a little bit
of wear and fading as is expected and which are marks of pride in a
survivor interior. The door panel alternates white and red with
thin chrome piping outlining it. The front buckets have pleated red
seating surfaces accented in white piping with alabaster bolsters
surrounding it, and there is a center console between them. The
two-spoke steering wheel is also red and white with a full circle
chrome horn ring and Polara badge in the center. Behind it is a
completely stock dash panel that is in excellent condition with the
rectangular speedo on the top and smaller rectangular gauges below
it. The automatic transmission is controlled by those wonderful
push button selectors which are mirrored on the other side by
ventilation buttons in the same style. The original AM radio is
still in place with a speaker in the sculpted dash just above
it.
Open the hood and you will find an all original engine bay with the
original 383 nestled down inside it. The motor, like the interior,
is proud to show off its survivor credibility rather than getting
all painted up and dressed up as part of a restoration. From the
original black air filter assembly through the carb, intake, heads
and exhaust manifold, it is all authentic and stock. There is a
fresh set of mufflers and pipes on the car, and again, there is a
whole notebook full on maintenance records with this car so you can
see exactly what has been serviced, when, where and how. Power
flows back through a Torqueflite three-speed automatic transmission
to the rear wheels mounted on leaf springs. Up front, control arms
and torsion bars work with the power steering to provide good
handling. The rubber meets the road through 215/70R14 white wall
tires mounted on steel wheels with the original hub caps.
Extremely well documented, authentic, original, and beautiful. This
car is looking for its 3rd owner. Would that be you? Call or come
on down and check it out.
