If you are one of those people, you will find the Polara located in Gresham, Oregon, and listed for sale here on Craigslist. Its condition appears to be extremely impressive, and it is a car that many Mopar enthusiasts would be proud to find parked in their driveway. It is a 1964 Polara 500, and the owner holds documentation that verifies that it is #3 out of 12 vehicles to roll off the line with the mighty 426ci Street Wedge V8 under the hood. We put a new battery in it within a couple days ago.Hidden away in this garage is a Dodge that is something out of the ordinary. The headliner is immaculate, door panels too. The heater hose is not hooked up to the heater core.

Other new options for 1965 included upgraded suspension components and larger 14in (356mm) wheels and tires. The following year the larger B-body Dodge Charger was introduced, and the "Charger" name was thenceforth associated with Dart models only in the "Charger 225" marketing name for the optional larger 6-cylinder engine. They were the first Dodge models to bear the "Charger" name. The Dart Chargers were yellow Dart GT hardtops with black interiors, Commando 273 engines, premium mechanical and trim specifications, and special "Charger" badging. At the same time, the Dodge Dart Charger was offered. In 1965, the 2-barrel 273 remained available, but a new performance version of the 273 engine was released with a 4-barrel carburetor, 10.5:1 compression, a more aggressive camshaft with solid tappets, and other upgrades which increased output to 235bhp (175kW). New features included stronger door locks and a refined automatic choke.

Standard axle ratios in 1964 were 2.93:1 with automatic transmission and 225 engine, or 3.23:1 with manual transmission and 225 engine, or with 170 engine and either transmission. 1964 was the last year for pushbutton control of the optional Torqueflite automatic transmission, so 19 models were the only compact Darts so equipped. After the start of the 1964 model year, an all-new, compact, lightweight 273cuin (4.5L) LA V8 producing 180bhp (130kW) with a 2-barrel carburetor was introduced as the top engine option. The aluminum engine block for the 225 was discontinued early in the 1963 model year. Initial engine offerings were two sizes of the slant-six: a 170cuin (2.8L), 101hp (75kW) version was fitted as standard equipment, and a 225cuin (3.7L), 145hp (108kW) version was available for less than $50 extra. The Dart remained extremely popular through the end of the Dart's production run in 1976 in comparison to the Ford Falcon and the Chevrolet Nova.1964 Dart station wagon1964 Dodge Dart GT Convertible1966 Dart sedan The Dart was an instant market success, with 1963 sales up sharply compared to those of the 1962 Lancer. The 1963 Dart has a turning radius of 38.9ft (11.9m). Three trim levels were offered: the low-spec 170, the high-spec 270, and the premium GT, which was available only as a 2-door hardtop or convertible. The Dart was available as a 2- or 4-door sedan, a 2-door hardtop coupe, a station wagon, and a convertible. The longer wheelbase gave more rear seat legroom than the previous Lancer or the contemporaneous Valiant. This longer wheelbase used the same A-body suspension of the Valiant and defunct Lancer, and would underpin all Darts from 1963 to 1976 except the 1963–1966 station wagons which used the Valiant's (106in (2,692mm) wheelbase) and the 1971–1976 Demon/Sport which used the Plymouth Duster's 108in (2,743mm) wheelbase.
