Hi, and thanks for looking! This auction is for a very rare 1964 Dodge Polara four door hardtop, the B body size, not the C body. This car is an original 71K mile survivor that I found back in 2011, brought home, and fixed up back to roadworthy condition. This car was originally from the Chuckey, TN area and was bought new at City Garage in Greenville, TN back in October 1963, making it 50 years old as of now. I have the certicard, original registration, owners manual, build sheet, warranty book, and a few registration cards going up to about 1981 when the original owner passed away and his widow had to transfer the title. I have not changed the look of the car from as found other than fix a broken windshield, drivers side window, and a set of dogdish hubcaps. The paint is the original white. Since I had two surgerys and then the birth of my baby I just don't have the money to put into fixing up the car any more than it is currently so I hope I can find it a good home. The car runs, drives, stops, and will go anywhere you want. I have fixed or replaced the following since I pulled it out of that field back in 2011:
New tires
14" Wheels sandblasted and repainted
All brakes replaced, shoes, cylinders, etc.
Conversion to dual master cylinder
Pertronix electronic ignition
Solid state voltage regulator
MSD coil
New belts and hoses
new turn signal flasher
new shocks
heater box sandblasted and rebuilt with all new stuff, new heater core.
floor patched with sheet tin under drivers feet - (cowl needs work)
new trunk floor - not installed
new fuel tank and sender
new fuel pump
Stromberg carb rebuilt.
new exhaust
radiator dipped, cleaned, and brackets fixed.
replaced upper door hinge on drivers door.
new windshield
new drivers side window (made new, no used ones ANYWHERE)
valves adjusted
new valve cover gaskets
new PCV
and probably more that I have forgot.
That's all the good stuff.
This is a fifty year old car that has never been restored. It needs some things done. The cowl needs rust repair over the drivers feet (common on this bodystyle), the floor needs work, (mostly just front), the trunk needs the new bottom put in, The bottom of the rear window and area round the corners of the front windshield and the bottoms of the fenders behind the rear tires need work. There is some dings and dents on the car as well, front passengers fender, some minor holes in the hood and fenders, but the basic frame and structure of the car is rock solid. I don't know how to weld very well and don't really have time to do those kinds of repairs anymore anyways. If you can do those things, this is the perfect project for you! It also needs the interior worked on, both seats are ripped, so is the headliner, the carpet is gone, the seatbelts are not attached and in bad shape anyways, the AM radio needs a new speaker (it just died a few weeks ago), a drivers side armrest, etc. Drivers side window does not line up with the back window just right.
BUT - it is a running, driving, inspected car and it is mechanically reliable, and it hasn't been hacked up or modded beyond just basic stuff. You can stop by and test drive it, check it out, etc, just call 540-449-1667 and set up a time.
I will work with you on shipping but in my opinion you could just drive it home. It will do 65 on the interstate with no problem. The car is located in Radford, VA, zip code 24141 right off I-81 in the mountains of Virginia.
This is a reserve auction, but it is a reasonable reserve, just enough to keep my wife from beating me :)
This car is one of the few 64 dodges left in this part of the world, they are pretty much gone. I do know where a 330 sedan is in a local yard if you need parts.

Will the Dodge Demon do a 10-second quarter-mile?
Fri, Apr 7 2017The final teaser for the Dodge Demon is finally here, and it might just give us a clue as to how quick the new car really is. A brief glimpse at a time slip shows what might be a 10-second quarter-mile time. That's a significant step up from the standard Hellcat's 11.7 seconds, but considering all of the Demon's modifications, it's not an unreasonable time. The new video, "Judgment Day," shows the new Demon in its natural habitat, a quarter-mile drag strip. There isn't much new information, aside from the brief glimpse at a time slip. There is a good shot of the car in action and some nice audio from what we assume is a supercharged 6.2-liter Hemi. For comparison, the new 2016 Chevrolet COPO Camaro is capable of a 10.7-second quarter-mile run, while the 2016 Ford Mustang Cobra Jet dips all the way down into the 8s. The full reveal is less than a week away. Look for more information, including the long-awaited horsepower rating, next week during our coverage of the 2017 New York Auto Show.

Fiat Chrysler CEO says final merger talks with Peugeot going well
Thu, Jan 23 2020BRUSSELS — Fiat Chrysler's chief executive Michael Manley said on Wednesday that merger talks with Peugeot owner PSA to create the world's No. 4 carmaker are progressing well and he hopes to have a deal within 12-14 months. Speaking to Reuters on the sidelines of an industry meeting, he said he doesn't expect any major obstacles that could delay a final agreement. "Talks are progressing really well," Manley said about negotiations with the French carmaker ahead of a briefing by the European automotive association (ACEA), of which he is president. His comments come a month after the two carmakers agreed to a binding deal worth about $50 billion to combine forces in response to a slowdown in global demand and mounting costs of making cleaner vehicles amid tighter emissions regulations. Manley's timeline for completing the deal by early 2021 is in line with a forecast made by the companies in December. Fiat and Peugeot are now getting into the details of how the merger will work, including choosing which vehicle platforms — the technological underpinnings of a vehicle — will fit which products in a combined company. Because customers in different locations still prefer vastly different cars, there is room for multiple platforms in a combined group, Manley said. "That global platform is an elusive beast," he added. "This concept of a massive global platform in my mind is almost a myth, but that doesnÂ’t mean to say weÂ’re not going to recruit significant volume." Related Video:  Â
