1972 Dodge Polara Custom 4-door hardtop 360 V8, automatic transmission, 46,375 original miles No Reserve Up for bid is an all original 1972 Dodge Polara Custom 4-door pillarless hardtop, with a 360 V8 and automatic transmission. She runs and drives really well, and gets plenty of attention. I acquired the car from the grandson of the original owner. I think it would be difficult to find another 42 year old car that is this original. She has the original paint, vinyl top, interior, engine, and only has 46,375 original miles. The 360 runs quite well, although she smokes a bit on start up but that clears up soon. All mechanicals are in good order, the only thing non-working is the air conditioning. She has been in Macon, Georgia most of her life; the paperwork shows some mechanical work done on her in Atlanta in early 2000s. The body is wearing the original paint, and it shines well. There are a few small dents, please see the photos for most of them. There is a scuff on the right front lower fender, in front of the door. Also, the front lower valence was damaged at some point, and was repaired with some pop-rivets and an old for sale sign. It is not very noticeable from the outside, please look at the photo for more detail. Some of the DODGE letters are missing on the front. The original vinyl top is nice, except for the area under the rear window. The car was kept in a carport for most of her life and as a result has been preserved. There is no rust anywhere on the body. The trunk has some rust stain under the rubber mat, but appears very solid. All windows roll down easily, giving that terrific hardtop look. Everyone who sees this car is amazed that this is the original paint. The interior is almost perfect. The front seat drivers side bottom was repaired at a local shop some time long ago, it is a slight different shade green. I don't know why it was repaired, as the rest of the interior is spotless. The dome light lens is missing. The original two-latch seatbelts work fine. All the instruments and gauges work, even the original am radio. The windshield wiper switch was replaced back in 2003, yet is very sensitive. That is, it has to be just right to switch off. Overall, the interior is close to showroom. I've tried to be as comprehensive with my description as possible, I've pointed out all the cars faults that I'm aware of. I may have made her sound worse than she is, I'd rather the next caretaker to be pleasantly surprised how nice she really is, rather than surprised in a bad way. Please let me know if you have any questions, and I will do my best to answer. I am located in the middle of Georgia, just above Macon, just off of Interstate 75. I have a clear Georgia title on her in my name, and she is registered, tagged, and insured in my name. This is a no reserve auction, so please bid intentionally and responsibly. I am needing to scale back on the number of old cars that I own, so I hope the Polara can go to a good home. Thank you for looking, and let me know if you need anymore information. On Jun-03-14 at 12:49:43 PDT, seller added the following information: I forgot to include two details: In reference to the photo of the steering column damage, someone had tried to steal the car many years ago while she was parked in her garage. They only succeeded in breaking the cover, exposing the wires. Please see the photo. Also, the clock does not work. If I remember any other details, I will post them. Thank you for all the interest. |

Experience the Woodward Dream Cruise in a Dodge Challenger Hellcat
Thu, Aug 20 2015While Autoblog was consumed by coverage of the increasingly important Monterey Car Week last weekend, there was another big even going on. The Woodward Dream Cruise is significantly lighter in terms of news, but there's no denying that it's a far bigger, and far more egalitarian than what the wine-and-cheese crowd experience on the links at Pebble Beach. The Dream Cruise crams tens of thousands of cars and over a million spectators along a four-lane ribbon of asphalt between Ferndale and Pontiac, MI. What's remarkable aren't these numbers, though, so much as the distances they travel. Owners and admirers come from far and wide, across the United States and in some cases across the globe, to take in the spectacle. This year, local radio and television coverage featured fans that traveled from Japan, Australia, and Europe, just to take in the cruise. Of course, we realize that not everyone can make the pilgrimage to Woodward Avenue. With that fact in mind, we decided to bring a bit of the Dream Cruise to Autoblog with a time-lapse video of the cruise route. You can experience the good (a Lamborghini Gallardo, Chevrolet Chevelle, and Oldsmobile Cutlass 442), the bad (the traffic jams), and the ugly (no, your 2003 Ford Focus does not qualify as a classic, get the hell out of the cruiser lanes). So join us, as we turn off 8 Mile Road behind the wheel of our 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat and run north, through Ferndale, Pleasant Ridge, Royal Oak, Huntington Woods, Berkley, Bloomfield Township, and Bloomfield Hills, before ending up on Wide Track Drive in Pontiac.

Dodge engineers trying to shoehorn Pentastar into Dart?
Tue, 19 Nov 2013The fact that the Dart's launch has been a pretty dismal affair isn't what we'd call secret. Judging by its mounting inventories and poor critical reception, Dodge's successor to its unloved Caliber has struggled since it hit the market. And while both of those are difficult problems to address, at least their cause is well known - the powertrain.
Even Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has acknowledged that the powertrain options in the Dart are substandard, admitting at January's Detroit Auto Show that the powertrains are "less than ideal." Leading with the 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder found in the Fiat 500 Abarth left a bad taste in the mouths of consumers thanks to the laggy engine and dead throttle response (to say nothing of the manual and dual-clutch gearboxes that needed more refinement). The addition of the 184-horsepower 2.4-liter Tigershark in the Dart GT has helped matters some, but apparently Auburn Hills doesn't think it's quite enough.
If rumors are to be believed - get that salt ready - a possible solution may be in the works. A report from Allpar is claiming that Dodge is considering fitting a Pentastar V6 into the Dart's engine bay. As the Mopar-obsessed website points out, the critically acclaimed Pentastar is available in three different sizes - 3.0 liters, 3.2 liters and the original 3.6 liters. We don't get the 3.0 here in the US, but the 3.2 can be found in the new Jeep Cherokee and the 3.6 has been seemingly fitted to every model Chrysler can shoehorn it into.
