Dodge Polara 426 Street Wedge 1964

General description : 1964 Dodge Polara 500 Convertible The Dodge Polara was introduced in 1960 as Dodge's top of the line full size car.  In 1962 the car was downsized to be a mid-sized car and the name plate was now a step below the Custom 880.  They were very interesting cars that were redesigned every year and often changed appearances within the same generations.  It is interesting to look at a 1st gen 1960 Polara and compare it to cars like this 2nd gen 1964 because in just 4 short years their look changed in extreme ways.  The muscle car "Hey Day" had not yet arrived but in '64 you could definitely start to see the direction things were heading.  This 1964 Dodge Polara 500 Convertible is a very neat car with a very unique look.  It has nice Black paint paired with a Black power top.  It is the factory ordered colors but it has been repainted at some point in its past.  The car once belonged to a big Mopar collector and he believed it to be the only triple Black Polara 500 Convertible with a Street Wedge Motor but with limited production numbers available that is undocumented.  These cars had very a very unique headlight and grill set up which is in good condition.  It was also ordered with premium grade trim which run the length of the car and features an engine turned center piece.  All of the stock exterior chrome is nicely mounted in place including the manually adjustable drivers side mirror.  The car rides on its original wheels which feature matching Black paint.  Part of what makes this car special is the factory 426 ci 365 HP Street Wedge motor that gets this classic moving down the road.  This was an optional motor and the amount of cars with this motor that are still around is unknown.  It is fitted with the correct 4 barrel carburetor and chrome valve covers/air cleaner which are from the factory.  It also has all the correct stuff like the front sway bar, heavy duty suspension, and 11 inch heavy duty brakes which were put on Street Wedge cars.  The motor runs great and is paired with a Torqueflite automatic transmission which sends power back to the original rear with sure grip differential.  Everything on the car has been kept very stock except for the added Optima battery. The numbers according to Galen V. Govier. 0618 - Thursday June 18, 1964 0645 - Shipping Order Number 645 - Dodge Polara 500 V8 Convertible P - Premium Grade Trim 4 - Vinyl Seats (Bucket) X - Black Interior B - Black top B - Black Body Paint A 5 - Torqueflite Automatic F 3 - Radio-Transaudio AM/FM J 6 - Black Convertible Top K 5 - Padded Dash M 3 - Back-Up Lights N 8 - Dual Jet Windshield Washer P 1 - Left Manual Mirror QR 14 - 426 1-4BBL 365 V8 Engine T 4 - 70 amp HD Battery W 2 - Sure Grip Differential The interior is its original Black vinyl which is in good condition throughout.  It has its factory bucket seats sitting to each side of the original console.  The console has storage, the shifter, the tachometer and some very cool trim.  The dash features all of its original trim and gauges but an added Autometer liquid filled pro comp Oil pressure gauge has been installed underneath on the drivers side.  The trunk has plenty of storage space and houses the factory jack and mat.  The undercarriage of the car is unrestored but is all solid.  This is a really unique classic Mopar that would make a great addition to any collection.  It comes with a 1964 Polara Technical Service manual and a very cool vintage advertisement.  Add it to your collection for $71,000.00!

About Dodge
Dodge Brothers Company, founded by Horace and John Dodge in 1900, initially produced components for car manufacturers. In 1914 they stepped into car manufacturing when introducing four-cylinder Dodge Model 30 with all-steel body and 12v electric system.

By 1920 Dodge had become the second biggest car manufacturer in the USA, unfortunately the same year both of the brothers died, the company in turn to was sold to Chrysler Corporation in 1928. Dodge found a niche Chrysler Corporation lineup above low-priced Plymouth and medium-priced DeSoto, but somewhat below the top-of-the-line Chrysler
