I would have thought that, when this was worth far less, that the engine - or at least the manifolds - would have found their way to a 2-door hardtop or convertible that someone was building-up. | ||

Veteran Posts: 266 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Location: SLC, UT | Yea, that's the car! Just after the ad that showed those pics said sold, somebody in Canada was congratulating his friend on his purchase of a rare 61 Polara D500. I think it was ultimately sold the an auction somewhere but I just can't remember who. The auction details (if I'm not confusing other 61 Dodge D500's) said it was 1 of 2 4 dr's ordered with the D500 longrams. I'm sure Neil will correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks Neil! | ||

I believe you that's what the auction said - there was more than two made however - It's still a rare car for sure ![]() | ||

Gotta dig out the books again, but I think there were 11 4dr Sedans (Polara) made with the D500 engine (2x4bbl 383) There were a few hundred (still very rare) 4dr Sedans (Polara) made with the Polara D500 engine (1x4bbl 383) | ||
