Finally got the camera up an running. This '62 Fury 4dr. hardtop, was made in Canada, car #21. The interior is '62 Dodge 440, the original 313 Poly was replaced with a '66 318 upgraded to a 4bbl dual exhaust.

313 poly???
different steering wheel too and a center arm rest, That does not look like a factory tag. Maybe Canada only? XX is always Black.
wheel looks exactly like my 64 Savoy, except for the center cap.
Looks like a great car.

Looks beautiful...have you looked for the build sheet? Strange how the dash cover is black.
It s a 62 dodge 440 interior alright . I agree the steering wheel is different .

Fu64RY & 1962polara

Photo shows when the car was removed from storage it had the black instrument panel with white bezels, and the Dodge 440 steering wheel

, so they were on the car since 1979 I believe. There was a cover on the wheel so I can't tell it's condition. I have paperwork that shows the steering wheel was replaced in 2012 and it's the same style, the Dodge 440 emblem in the center of the wheel matches the embossing on the front and rear seats. During restoration the headliner was changed from white to red with chrome bows, the visors are red/white combo. Canadian Polys were of a smaller bore, 313 cu in and was equipped with a generator.
