plan C
a while back I posted a request in the interiors, asking for suggustions were I might get upolstry for 66 polara that i bought in mid may. I am in Canada and was asked if I could provide a few pictures that would show the difference between Canada and usa built cars. my car turned out to be made in the usa and was a polara 500.
here is a few pictures of the polara 880 I picked up today. this one was built up here. it has side body trim like a usa Monaco. polara 880 badge behind front wheel and on inner door panel. a instrument cluster like a Plymouth. i included a picture of the seats, maybe somebody can tell me if there is any differences in the upolstry.
I drove 7 hours each way and paid 1000 Canadian, aprox $800 us.
it is 100% complete. has saggy torsion bars. poly 318, 727. my plan is to swap in a 440/727 that I have. this car was running last in 1980 and i decided I would see if the 318 would be interested in going a few more miles before i do anything drastic.
any input would be most welcome
