e-bay,
le fameux site d'enchères aux USA qui comprend
toujours entre 1 et 2 millions d'objets à
enchérir. C'est celui aussi qui a acheté
notre iBazar
national avec ses 4 à 600 mille objets aux
enchères et qui est devenu ebay.fr
- voitures
américaines : il y en a toujours beaucoup avec
de superbes photos sur le site
américain.
Le site
français
propose en général entre 2 et 4 pages
d'objets et de voitures avec une certaine modestie pour
les photos. Ceci va sans doute changer
- photos : elles
sont du propriétaire-vendeur

with D500 emblem Ultra RARE Vehicle
Description
- Up for auction is
a automobile that is rarely ever offered for sale. It
is a 1960 Dodge Polara two door hardtop. The styling
resembles that of a jet aircraft with the large canted
fins and cylindrical tail-light housings! This
particular car was manufactured in Canada and has some
differences from the US manufactured Polara.The
largest engine offered in Canada was the 361 cu.in.
big block, the US had the 383 which is basically the
same engine. The other differences are with
theinterior seat material and some minor trim
oddities. The car looks like it was painted in the
1970's and the carpet was replaced with a brown shag
rug. I have sinceremoved the carpeting. The engine is
the 361 big block with torqueflite 3 speed automatic
pushbutton transmission. The options include power
steering, tinted glass, two-tone paint(cocoa metallic
with satin roof sweep), large stainless quarter
moldings, dual strut mirrors, heater, and radio. The
car runs excellent and the dual exhaust system was
completely replaced using original(nos)mopar sonomatic
mufflers! The interior is very nice, the seats look
perfect with no tears( not sure if it is original).
The carpet will need to be replaced as well as the
cardboard panel on the rear seat deck. The car was
last registered and driven in 1988 in Ontario, Canada.
The trunk and passenger floors are solid but do have a
couple of small holes the size of a pencil. The
underside of the car is real clean with NO rust scales
on frame/unibody. The car is nice solid example that
would look great with some cosmetics or it would
"steal the show" with a restoration!!! Included with
this auction is a 1960 D-500 trunk emblem and the rare
compass or turret style clock along with the dash from
a parts car. An extra astrophonic AM radio is also
included. Good Luck and email me with questions or
additional pictures. Please, only serious buyers!
- Vehicle Condition
. The brakes will need to be overhauled. There is an
oil leak, probably from sitting, coming from the oil
pan. Most likely the rear seal on the pan. Front
fender will need some adjustments to align correctly
with the hood. Tires are probably 20 years old and
should be replaced. Horn is not working.

send owner a 10% deposit within 3 days of auction end.

information:
I forgot to mention that I found 2 of the rare
turret or compass style clocks for this car, I also
was able to obtain the dash piece containing the hole
for the clock to mount in. Included with the clock is
the cable and hardware for setting the time and the
complete wire harness that would plug into the main
harness. Also, I have another 1960 Dodge factory AM
radio that goes with the car. I have pictures of the
trunk floor showing that it is all original with the
ribs(indentations) and black drain plugs. No rubber
mat here! Please email me for pictures if you like!!
