1964 Dodge Polara Length?

[Kmrumedy]

Hi Guys,

I just bought my first B Body sight unseen other than pictures. A 1964 Dodge Polara Canadian car.

The web says the 1964 cars are 209.8 inches long. Is that tip of bumper to bumper? Does that sound right to you?

My garage is 227 inches long. That's cutting it close. Will it fit?

Thanks.

My 64 Dodge 440 is 4" longer than my 69 Bee and about 5" higher. All I can tell you from camp...

Thanks. So a 69 Plymouth Superbee is 206.6 inches. I'm still okay....I think.

Because a 1955 chevy didn't come with a 327 four barrel. The 327 wasn't available until 1962 and only in the Impala. A 327 four barrel wasn't available in a Bel Air until 1964, but the correct timing for a 1964 327 is 4 degrees before top dead centa.

What the Sam Dupont are you talking about?

He said: 1969 "Plymouth" Super Bee, so I quoted the trick question from My Cousin Vinny

Maybe I should ask Marisa Tomei if she knows how long a 64 Polara is??

Here ya go @Kmrumedy . This is my 64 Polara convertible in my 10' x 20' converted storage unit. As you can see, the interior length is 229" and I have about 14" clearance in front and about 5" in back. You should be golden. Of course mine is the US model so I can only confirm the length as approximately 8.75 dishwashers. (That's a forum joke).

Post up some pics for cryin' out loud!

@SlingLow Hey!!! Thank you so much for doing this!!!! Very cool of you. I really appreciate it.

I don't have the car yet. It's 2000 miles away. Just got picked up yesterday. It will go to a depot in Toronto first. So I imagine I will get it in the next 10-15 days.

Or approximately 1-1.5 metric weeks.

OK, I'm done now.

Before you judge somebody who doesn't use the metric system...​

You should walk 1.609344 kilometers in their shoes.

My doctor says I should walk 10,000 steps a day what is that in metric?

Depends if you have Metric feet. You can tell if you only have 5 toes, instead of the usual 6.

20 feet of feathers or lead, which is longer?

Damn, my 1970 Fury is only 5" longer. Never knew that a 1964 Polara is only 5" shorter than a c-body.
