Hi all,
Anyone here have an article or remember reading it, apparently from a recent "Musclecar Enthusiast" magazine,
quoting 28,500 1963 Polara 500 convertibles made and that supposedly only 5 1963 Polara 500 convertibles are known to exist. (I did not think Musclecar Enthusiast magazine was still in business, as I recall it became Auto Enthusiast, formerly Cars and Parts.)
Anyway, this production number seems off to me. A fellow told me that's what he read, but a source I looked at a while back (can't recall where) claimed only 7,256 Polara 500s were made in 1963 -- of both hardtops and convertibles. Which makes more sense to me. (Somewhere around that 7,256 figure anyway, depending on source material used.) Maybe the article meant 5 max wedge Polara 500 converts?
Anyone?
Thanks,
Gary H.
