Re: 1963 Polara 500s?

[Jimmy Peavy <peaver63@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would if I could find it.
The numbers I just cited were from the 62 to 65 website, but quoted from the article that was in Collectible Automobile.

Jimmy, would it be possible to get that article?

What I mean is, could you please take digital pics of each page to e.mail to me?

Thanks,

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.
