'64 330 Street Hemi build

[DavidElmore]

I just saw your thread for the first time. Great looking car. Great job. I love 64 Polara,s. this one is mine.

 

[Polara Driver]

Hi 2059,
Yes the Polara is very rare over here in England.
There are only five in total, one 330, one 440 and three 500's.
Two of the 500's are owned by a friend.
One is as factory body and the other 500 has been worked to a AWB GASSER.
The other 500 is mine which is as factory original body ( solid as with no rust anywhere ) but not as factory running gear.
Was a 318 / 4 in the floor but is a worked 440 Six Pak / full race spec 727 Torqueflite now.
The original 318 / 4 speed went before the Polara came over to British soil in 2011 sadly.

Well Gents,

Here's the link to the final walk around. Very clunky, and poor quality which is what happens when you live in the sticks... There are a couple posted this one is a little longer...

Thanks To Everyone!!! for the help and advise!!

Thanks 2059 I really enjoyed your walk around video .. not clunky and better than I would have done. Very nice car

 

[2059]

Thanks, there's some secrets in the works for late next year on the car. I'll simply say it involves Eddie Haines and a new hood...:headbang:

2059, I bought a fiberglass hood scoop for my 65 Dodge Coronet but after seeing your scoop from Joey I want to have him make me one if he still does it. Can you tell me how you contacted him as I can't seem to find the info. Thanks Al

A far as I know he does. Last I talked to him was in July. I'll PM you his number. No big secret but need to follow the rules..

tried sending Joeys number it says that you have chosen to not receive PM's so until you change that selection; I can't help ya. You can also google Joey Cole and get his email address and phone number with a little digging.

Good Luck and Happy New Year!!

Very Nice Ride Centerline!! Thanks for the shots!!

Sorry about that I didn't realize that PM was turned off, I do have a number and email address but they don't seem to work so if you can send me that number I'd really appreciate it. Happy New Year to you also, hope it will be a good year for you and yours.

Joey has emailed me back so all is good, Thanks

I spent the last hour or so reading the journey from where I last read about 6 months ago. What a ride! Thanks for the updates and as I said before, it's a real tribute to you and those you chose to be involved.
It turned out beautifully, and that Hemi sounds incredibly good! Looking forward to seeing some in car vids of You an DW (as you say) out and about and enjoying the car.

Mind if I ask you who did the modification to your radio ? thanks

Here's the website Joe. Really nice guy and I see he now offers bluetooth. He didn't have that when he converted mine, nice feature!

I think you'll be very happy if you decide to use him.

Good luck,
Mike

This project is "fluid" always changing, always moving.... lets say AHPDD.

"Adult Horse Power Deficit Disorder" Ya, lets say that.

Take two; Eddie Haines. Roller cam, Ported polished runners, better fuel distribution. Who else delivers their engines wrapped in a bow....

BTW; this is not over...
