Italian edition. Love that green. I'd probably repaint the red side spear.

I wondered about that red insert color, have to check the brochure to see if that was standard for the Polara.   Its rather shocking with a green interior, black would be appropriate.

Can't help myself. I kind of like it. My folks bought a new 1963 Dodge Dart with a 225 six. Only it wasn't a 225 but the smaller 177? Anyway he took it back and they gave us a 1962 car similar to this one  to drive and I've like them ever since. 

I believe it was a Dodge Dart 440 with a V-8. This 13 year old thought it was a much better car than the 6 cylinder 63 Dart.

That interior would be turquois, considered to be in the blue family of colors during the 60's. The late 70's saw a change to teal instead which was considered in the green family of colors.  The blue colors would fade out and make the turquois start looking much more green, just like red would look more orange as it faded and copper would start looking more like coral.

I always liked those interior handles and always disliked  the 62 Dodge / Ply. styling.

Here's mine, black with a blue interior and a blue exterior stripe. I'm thinking this white one should have a blue exterior stripe as well, given its interior color.

Did you ever sell this?

Jon, this is the "Not Mine" category, meaning that the

cars for sale are owned by others.  Forum-goers merely

see an ad for an interesting car and repost it here.

 

The car owner's phone number is in the first forum posting, here.

Just scroll up, read the ad, and you'll see the number.

Telephoning is the only way now to know if the car is still available.

 

All the best to you in your search!
