I have my 1961 Dodge Polara for sale. If interested PM me.

Rust free California car. Daily driver!

383 big block (Rebuilt)
Torqueflite pushbutton automatic
Power steering
Reverse lights
Remote side view mirror
Solex tinted glass
Variable wipers w/ washer
Radio

This car was originally from Southern California. I purchased this car and drove it back to NC from CA. The engine is a 383 cubic inch big block with a 2bbl. The engine was rebuilt and runs very well. No smoke or issues. Exhaust is nice and quiet but gives you that nice throaty tone when you mat the gas pedal! The transmission is the original Torqueflite pushbutton automatic which operates flawlessly. This car can cruise on the interstate all day at 70mph with no hesitation! This car performed great on my cross country drive.

The master cylinder and all the rubber hoses have been replaced. The brakes work as they should. A complete brake kit is included with the car as well. A brand new set of 8.00-14 bias ply white wall Goodyear Super Cushions were installed and have about 8000 miles on them. These are the correct tires the car left the factory with.

The car is equipped with power steering which allows you to shuttle this spaceship around with ease. Both lines were replaced. Pump does have a leak and a rebuild kit is included.

The radiator has been recored with a high efficiency core. This car will not overheat! I sat in traffic in a heat wave in Phoenix where temps reached 120 and the car didn't care! This car is a perfect candidate for air conditioning as it is equipped with factory tinted glass as well.

Everything works including the original AM radio. All lights, gauges, , etc. The car has variable speed wipers and windshield washer. I did replace the foot pump for the washer.

The car was painted some time back in a nice white pearl. It's a very light pearl. Looks good on the car. Whoever painted the car did a great job. Very straight! No waves or ugly bodywork. There are some flaws with some chips and nicks here and there but the car is very presentable. I get all kinds of comments on the paint job.

This car is rust free. The floors and trunk and all other areas are rock solid and don't show any rust at all. When I pulled the carpet up to inspect the floors they were still in perfect shape up top just as they were underneath. No hints of rust. The front park/turn signal lenses are NOS replacements.

The front seat is covered with a mexican blanket. It was like that when I purchased the car. The headliner was coming down so I pulled it out. Better me than you as it's not fun pulling out headliners and loose insulation! The door panels are nearly perfect and the dash pad is intact and presentable. The plastic steering wheel is also in very good shape. I found and bought an original dash speaker grille as the original had crumbled. They are made of plastic and very hard to find! I also installed front lap belts for safety.

This is a very presentable driver that you can enjoy right now! It's bizarre! It'll make people ask you what it is or think that they saw a UFO fly past them!

I have a clear NC title in my name. Come drive it home! Car is located in Hickory, North Carolina.

$9500

There's several Greyhound stops in the area.

Show up to Charlotte Amtrak station or airport and I can pick you up and bring you right here.
