'64 Dodge Polara RHD Resto

[P O'Lara]

Hi Guys, I just got my car back on the road, last drove it December 2011 into the 1st shop where it was stripped, bare-metalled and some patches/welding done, most of which was re-done when I took it to Gerard Lyons garage in October 2014 by Marek Dzuda who really went over the car in great detail and took it to another level. I am overjoyed with the work,done about 100 miles in it so far, near as dammit like it came out of the showroom, every mile a dream come true. Gotta give a BIG shout out to Joe Suchy who gave me great advice as well as having everything I needed.
For those who haven't seen it before it was made in Windsor Ontario for export to England, Australia, S.Africa or New Zealand and records are lax on production numbers. 1st pic is pre-resto-you wouldn't believe the rust lurking under that innocuos looking 20-footer !Thanks from P O'Lara.

Thanks Mopar Man it's a poly/wideblock/semi-hemi 318 2 barrel single carb factory cast exhaust manifold 3-speed auto.

Gorgeous car! The 318 Poly isn't bad either. We occasionally custom make pistons for the Poly 318 at my work.

Is the shifter on the left??

 

[P O'Lara]

It's 3-speed auto but the buttons are on the left side of the fascia along with the park lever.
