Year One Customer Car Show

1965 Polara

A little history: the original owner bought her in Joliet, IL, but was soon killed in Vietnam. His brother inherited the car and drove it until 1976. It was bought by a cousin in 1992, who planned a complete resto (never finished). I then acquired it from the third owner in the summer of 1998.

In store is a restoration to factory condition including carpet, seat covers, paint, dash, engine rebuild, and possibly factory A/C (not original).

Specs for the car include:

Original 413 4-bbl Carter AFB

Original TorqueFlite automatic

Original 3.23 Posi

Factory power top

Factory power windows

Factory power brakes (4-wheel drum)

Single exhaust

94,000 original miles

Since purchase it has received:

New fuel pump

New head light switch

Carb. rebuild

New rear curtain (thanks to Year One)

New power brake booster and master cylinder
