Thanks, I will.

Hi, I am looking for some help from anyone out there with a 64 Dodge Polara 2 door hard top. I am installing my door seals and roof rail seals and I am having some problems with remembering how they go in. Specifically the start and end points. The door seal starts on the edge where it meets...

Yeah, I get that. The question was just for fun with the members. I am 90% sure what the color will be but that may change up to the time I buy the paint. - - - Updated - - - I was a metallurgist in my former life at one time. So me and metals get along. The nice thing about metal (as...

Actually I did...in 1967. I really have little to no body work experience, but some things seem to make sense and I seem to be able to do this fairly well. Thanks for the compliment.

Photos as requested Passenger side lower quarter repair

work ongoing on my 64 Polara. Just a little update about my car work. I had the body blasted and now the entire car is in DPLF90 primer. I bought lower quarter panel sections and have the passenger side already replaced and ready for primer. I had to recreate the vertical wall of the trunk...

Thanks. I will look into getting the block tested this spring and see what I can do with using 440 pistons. That would save me some cash on the build for sure. - - - Updated - - - Well, I have the entire car now media blasted and in PPG DPLF (90) primer for the winter. All I have left to do...

0.070" over would be 4.32" piston diameter form the original 4.25. 440 stock bore is 4.35 isn't it? So that won't work will it?

Man! Am I glad that is over. I just spent the last week scraping and cleaning the underside of my 64 Dodge Polara. 50 years of gravel road and old undercoating all gone. It is now all black and coated with POR15. What a dirty job that was. Covered from head to toe in dirt and grunge for...

ahhhh! The job from hell. I have spent the last two days scraping 50 years of Florida gravel road from the back, bottom of my 64 Dodge. Stuff falling everywhere. The dirtiest job there is in restoring an old car. I got three more days and she will be shiny and black underneath from front to...

good idea to stay away form "fall" talk...so far we barley have summer here in OH.

thanks for the compliment. Its a labor of love of course. Lots more to do but I have the time now to get on it. I have a 426 wedge and steel crank I plan to start on this fall. it seems buying pistons for this engine will be something of an issue. Not many available for this 4.25 bore. Push...

well...i do them when i can so...here are a few to mull over. - - - Updated - - - so...lots of "car ****" not in any order...lots of work going on - - - Updated - - - so how did I do AMX364?

maybe tomorrow I will post some pics. Satiate the picture requests.:thumbsup:

I got my front suspension mostly done in the last two days. New everything...including disc brake conversion and new torsion bars. Took the 0.881" bars off and went with 1.03" bars. New tie rods, new upper control arms, new idler, and a new pitman arm. Should steer and ride nice and safely at...

Just put new upper control arms on today. Next week I will put the new torsion bars in and all the new front end parts.

64 Polara I was hoping to use stock 440 pistons, if I could. I will check with my machine shop, once I get the block tested. Now I just need to find a good shop in Cleveland, OH. - - - Updated - - - I will add some photos soon of my project 64 Polara. Right now she doesn't look like much...

I am getting my 64 Dodge Polara along the path to roadworthy. The all new floors are nearly done. The 318 is out, and already sold. I have a lot to do but now that I am retired I am making fantastic progress. I plan to have the body done and in primer before snow falls. Winter engine work...
