Very Cool!!!! Thanks a lot for posting this. I didn't know that my [base] 64 Polara convertible cost more than then any of the hardtop Polara models. And I also didn't know that it was offered in grey paint. I don't think I've ever seen a Polara in grey.
I have those same braces on my '64 Polara convertible, but I've not had to touch them during the restoration of the car. I believe that they were spot welded to the quarter at the factory and I have the same type of undercoat over mine that you show in your pics. My guess is that any type of...
Looking great! there Doug. I've never seen that interior before but then again I don't see too many Canadian Polara convertibles either. And congrats on owning your car for 60 years!!
Sam - My OEM interior was pretty much toast so there's no comparison between the new SMS material and what I sent them. Maybe someone on the site here with an OEM interior still in their car can best respond to you. My car was originally a California car and the sun cooked the interior and the...
Believe me, I tried to use Legendary for the very reasons you mentioned. My Polara isn't the 500 model though, and that's the only interior they reproduce. SMS was the only place in country I could find that does the correct base model Polara convertible upholstery & door panels.
Thought I'd post these pics as a way to offer some small ray of hope to anybody else waiting on interior items from SMS out in Oregon. The new upholstery arrived this past Wednesday from SMS for my 64 Dodge Polara convertible [H4R interior code]. I think they did a really nice job but I'm still...
It's a chilly/rainy day here today in Maryland so I was able to spend some time in the garage. The part from Allstate I believe is going to work but I'll need to put some run time on it to be sure. The length of the lower horizontal part of the rod that contacts the carb arm is about 1 inch...
Hi FastMark, and thanks for chiming in to the thread. VERY interesting info. and photo that you shared....thanks! I assumed that the OEM vent rods were never as bright as today's replacements, but I would not have guessed they were dull black in color. I'll report back on how the Allstate rod...
The folks at Allstate emailed me back and said that the $14.00 rod in the listing that Dave posted here is correct for my application [non emissions center carb]. So I placed an order with them this afternoon and we'll see if it works when it gets here. :)
I contacted Allstate this morning via their website contact page and inquired about them carrying the longer version of the OEM Holley vent rod. I couldn't attach any photos on their contact page but I offered to send them some via email if they request it. Hard to tell for sure from Dave69's...
Thanks for the additional vendor suggestion Velocity, but I'm going to see if Chicago Carb. come through. They replied back to email I sent them and said on Wednesday that they would have the longer vent rod available 10 - 21 days from now. I'm assuming that somebody is making these rods for...
I've bought parts from them in the past and I did contact them about 2 years ago after realizing that finding one of these rods 'loose' at Carlisle just wasn't happening. They couldn't help me 2 years ago but I just sent them an email this evening since maybe something has changed on their end...
