What do you guys think of this car
I'm looking at. It's a 1965 Dodge Polara 500. 383 AT,90,XXX original mi, runs good an pretty clean, 3rd owner. $5500. Good price??

Looks pretty clean. Although, I'd be skeptical of the 90,xxx original miles. Have you driven it? How does it look under the hood? The interior? If it's clean, has little rust and runs well, I'd say $5,500 is a decent price. Especially if you want a Polara. You don't see many on the road these days. There will be some things that need attention for sure. So, factor that in the overall price.

I'll be blunt - it isn't visually attractive for my taste, I don't recall this model being very popular. Is there a year one catalog for restoration parts?

I think Polaras are cool. It's too bad it doesn't have a 426 Max Wedge

$5,500 is a fair price, but everyone always asks a little higher than what they'll actually sell it for.

He was asking $6500 and I got him down to $5500. I drove it, it runs good, I believe the miles. He (older guy, 70's maybe) said he bought it from the 2nd owner about 13-14 yrs ago. Interior is in real good shape as us the engine, little dirty, not bad.

If you like the car..........I wouldn't feel bad about paying $5,500 bucks. I say go for it.

Looks badass to me. I'd pimp that out & make it into the cheech mobile. j/k.......it'd be a cool one to have though

If the underside is in decent shape and there isn't bondo holding the quarters together I would buy it without any hesitation. Very cool body style imo.
