Re: Welcome new member - 1962 Dodge 880

I think you mean 1961 Dodge Polara front clip to the 1962 Newport's body, and a 1961 Desoto/1961 Dodge Dart Dash. But it's not worth much as Herb said. Low production number and being a rare car do not make it valuable. A 1967 AMC Marlin was a rare car, and neat and ahead of it's time. But it's still a slug that nobody really wants. Just like my 1962 Newport. If it was a 300H it would be worth something....same damn car but mine's worthless. :)

The 1962 Dodge 880 was basically a 1962 Chrysler Newport with a 1961 Newport front clip. Yes the A-745 three-speed manual with a floor shift was a factory option. Factory build sheet and records from back then are spotty or missing, so how "rare" is not verifiable. Various sources even give different production numbers. One cites Custom 880 at 17,505. So if 10% were standard shifts, about 1700.

Thanks,
