Description: Rare and in excellent condition, 1963 Dodge Polara 500 in its original Ivory white with a red and alabaster interior. What makes this Dodge rare is that it came from the factory with a Borg Warner T-10 4-speed behind the high performance 383 c.i. / 330 h.p. wedge motor (see fender tag photo). The 383 wedge motor was rebuilt and has less than 3,000 miles on it.
NO TRADES
The present owner purchased the car in 2015 from an estate sale in Washington state where it had been stored for over 20 years. After the car was delivered the owner did a comprehensive inspection and made necessary upgrades where it was needed to make it a reliable and fun-to-drive vintage muscle car. See specifics below.
Overall, the Polara is very solid and appears to have had one exterior repaint. Door jams, trunk area, and engine bay are the original paint and color.
The total mileage of the car is estimated at 64,000.
The Dodge runs great and sounds good with the Flowmaster mufflers and mild aftermarket hydraulic cam.
No disappointments enjoying this Mopar.

I have been an active eBay seller of cars and other items for more than 20 years and maintained a 100% rating during most of that period. Approximately 12 years ago I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles on the internet without them leaving the garage. These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all the endless phone calls, “Tire kickers”, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it!!
