Hi, and thanks for looking! This auction is for a very rare 1964 Dodge Polara four door hardtop, the B body size, not the C body. This car is an original 71K mile survivor that I found back in 2011, brought home, and fixed up back to roadworthy condition. This car was originally from the Chuckey, TN area and was bought new at City Garage in Greenville, TN back in October 1963, making it 50 years old as of now. I have the certicard, original registration, owners manual, build sheet, warranty book, and a few registration cards going up to about 1981 when the original owner passed away and his widow had to transfer the title. I have not changed the look of the car from as found other than fix a broken windshield, drivers side window, and a set of dogdish hubcaps. The paint is the original white. Since I had two surgerys and then the birth of my baby I just don't have the money to put into fixing up the car any more than it is currently so I hope I can find it a good home. The car runs, drives, stops, and will go anywhere you want. I have fixed or replaced the following since I pulled it out of that field back in 2011:
New tires
14" Wheels sandblasted and repainted
All brakes replaced, shoes, cylinders, etc.
Conversion to dual master cylinder
Pertronix electronic ignition
Solid state voltage regulator
MSD coil
New belts and hoses
new turn signal flasher
new shocks
heater box sandblasted and rebuilt with all new stuff, new heater core.
floor patched with sheet tin under drivers feet - (cowl needs work)
new trunk floor - not installed
new fuel tank and sender
new fuel pump
Stromberg carb rebuilt.
new exhaust
radiator dipped, cleaned, and brackets fixed.
replaced upper door hinge on drivers door.
new windshield
new drivers side window (made new, no used ones ANYWHERE)
valves adjusted
new valve cover gaskets
new PCV
and probably more that I have forgot.
That's all the good stuff.
This is a fifty year old car that has never been restored. It needs some things done. The cowl needs rust repair over the drivers feet (common on this bodystyle), the floor needs work, (mostly just front), the trunk needs the new bottom put in, The bottom of the rear window and area round the corners of the front windshield and the bottoms of the fenders behind the rear tires need work. There is some dings and dents on the car as well, front passengers fender, some minor holes in the hood and fenders, but the basic frame and structure of the car is rock solid. I don't know how to weld very well and don't really have time to do those kinds of repairs anymore anyways. If you can do those things, this is the perfect project for you! It also needs the interior worked on, both seats are ripped, so is the headliner, the carpet is gone, the seatbelts are not attached and in bad shape anyways, the AM radio needs a new speaker (it just died a few weeks ago), a drivers side armrest, etc. Drivers side window does not line up with the back window just right.
BUT - it is a running, driving, inspected car and it is mechanically reliable, and it hasn't been hacked up or modded beyond just basic stuff. You can stop by and test drive it, check it out, etc, just call 540-449-1667 and set up a time.
I will work with you on shipping but in my opinion you could just drive it home. It will do 65 on the interstate with no problem. The car is located in Radford, VA, zip code 24141 right off I-81 in the mountains of Virginia.
This is a reserve auction, but it is a reasonable reserve, just enough to keep my wife from beating me :)
This car is one of the few 64 dodges left in this part of the world, they are pretty much gone. I do know where a 330 sedan is in a local yard if you need parts.

Dodge gives 2015 Viper slight power increase, new GT model
Tue, 02 Sep 2014With its troubling sales figures, the newly rechristened SRT Dodge Viper needs to come out swinging for 2015. To do that, Dodge has made a number of tweaks and changes that will hopefully carry the V10-powered sports car into more successful days.
First up for 2015 is a new GT model, which aims to marry the reasonable price of the base car with the adjustable suspension and trick stability control program of the GTS model. The GT also sports a cabin that's covered in Alcantara suede and Nappa leather as standard.
Also new for 2015 is the SRT TA 2.0 Special Edition, which expands on last year's Viper TA by adding new aerodynamic bits and bobs, including a larger rear wing, which ups downforce at 150 miles per hour from 278 pounds to 400 pounds.
Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat in the works
Fri, 25 Jul 2014In Autoblog's recent First Drive of the 2015 Challenger SRT with the 707-horsepower Hellcat V8 we found its engine to be as brutally powerful as the numbers would suggest, even if it wasn't the best handler. However, the muscle-car-styling just isn't right for some buyers that need four doors and proper rear seats to haul around the family. It appears that Dodge has their backs, though, because the Hellcat is very likely on its way into the Charger in the near future. Imagine the looks on your passengers' faces when you stomp down on the throttle.
According to Road and Track, when Dodge submitted the Hellcat for engine power certification to the Society of Automotive Engineers, the company included the Charger on the paperwork. That showed that the automaker wanted the engine checked out for the sedan, too. R&T reckons the 707-hp Charger would hit the road about a year from now, clearing the Challenger for a year of exclusivity with the powerplant.
When the Charger SRT Hellcat does hit the road, it may carry a very special accolade. Assuming nothing beats it in the meantime, it might be the world's highest horsepower production sedan. Think on that for a second. Even a Mercedes S65 AMG only has 621 horsepower, though a good bit more torque at 738 pound-feet to the Dodge's 650 lb-ft. So while the beastly engine is getting put into other models, where else would you like to see it? The Ram? Grand Cherokee? Let us know in Comments.
1 Of 1 Dodge Viper looks a fabulous mess in Chicago
Fri, Feb 13 2015Earlier this year, we told you about the new Dodge Viper 1 Of 1 program, which offers buyers the chance to customize their supercars to the tune of some 25 million different combinations. With 8,000 paint colors, 24,000 hand-painted stripe patterns, 10 wheel options, and 16 interior trims to choose from, you'd be right to think that the possibilities for personalization are endless, and can probably get a little weird. That's kind of what's going on here in Chicago, with a Viper showcar that's definitely... unique. It doesn't really look bad, necessarily. It's just kind of strange. We call this color job, "Oh no, there are tiny paint cans falling from the sky, but I simply can't stop driving 200 miles per hour." And when it came time to spec wheels, it looks like FCA US said, "Aw heck, let's just use all of 'em." You'll definitely want to take a look at this unique creation, in the gallery above. And be sure to let us know if you think this Viper is hot or not, in Comments. Related Video:
