1964 Dodge Polera |
In 1963, Dodge listened to what the people wanted, and increased the wheelbase to 119 inches, and
proceeded to clean up the lines and make the cars more attractive. But dodge fans didn't really care
what the car looked like, they just wanted to go fast. Along those lines, dodge offered the light weight
package, which provided an aluminum front end to the car. The total package saved about 150 pounds
There was another significant body change for the 1964 mode year, with the headlights taking a promenent
role at the front of the car. Dodge was serious about racing and with their own factory race cars set
several records throughout the year including a new Top Stock Eliminator record of 12.03 @ 118.42mph. While
the dodge cars where less then pretty, they were extreme performers with the right performance options ordered
from dodge.
