Vehicle Description
Plenty of V8 power, full-size drop-top appeal, and Mopar rarity all
come together on this 1968 Dodge Polara Convertible. So the fact
that it's also so affordable is the cherry on top of this red
ragtop.
The '68 Polara was one of the most imposing cars out there. Wide
bumpers, a recessed grille, quad headlights, and crisply done lines
feel like this is out to own the road. The whole car looks good
upgraded to a bold red, and the competition-style Torq Thrust
wheels are a great addition to remind you that there's proper V8
power under the hood. Everything here looks clean and complete.
You'll find areas to improve if you want a showstopper, but we
think it's quite nice to have a cruiser with a carefree driver
style from day one. And this retains a nice premium side to a
full-size convertible. After all, there were some of the most
expensive cars in the lineup (and why they are so rare today.) So
the details like the intricate rear panel and full-length trim that
runs the top of the fenders and doors are all part of the added
distinction you want on a classic cruiser.
The white convertible top against the red paint has the same
instant appeal as a Coca-Cola bottle, and beneath it is an equally
attractive white interior. And while the upholstery and door panels
are done to be bright and premium, higher traffic areas like the
carpet show less dirt because they're in black. You'll even like
the little details like the convertible boot done in white and the
AM radio still there for display. A full-size drop-top is a great
classic cruiser, and so there's plenty of room to fit family and
friends across the two wide rows of bench seats. But the driver is
always the priority. After all, with power windows and a power
convertible top, you never have to lever your seat to open this
Dodge up to the world.
When you open the hood, you immediately notice the bright blue
Mopar block radiating within the dark and honest engine bay. The
large Polaras of this era were always V8 machines, and so it's nice
to have the 383 cubic-inch V8 under the hood. It even has upgrades
like an Edelbrock AVS2 four-barrel carburetor, an Edelbrock
Performer 383 intake, and an HEI distributor. And this big block
classic retains its cool cruising attitude thanks to power
steering, power brakes, modern Goodyear tires, and A727 Torqueflite
three-speed automatic transmission.
The sale comes complete with the original warranty card and owner's
manual. The factory carb and intake also come with the car. This is
the unique, attractive, and affordable classic drop-top you can't
let get away. Call today!!!
