The Polara was sold from 1960 until 1973. It was
the top of the line full size offering from Dodge,
although that position would be usurped by the 880
in 1962.

This model line originally featured some of the most
outrageous styling elements in the car world. The
look was often compared to futuristic jet pods, with
taillights that blended the popular tailfins look
of the time with what appeared to be rockets. The
car was made smaller and more contemporary in 1963
as Dodge expeced the competition to downsize all
of their cars. Of course, this wasn't the case, and
the Polara was left without a market to compete in
and lacking the features the Americans were looking
for at the time. In 1965, it was made a full size
car again, with a more squared look with defined
edges. By 1969, a change was needed, and once again
the car was remodeled. The new "fuselage" look was
fatter and more chunky, which was basically what
other muscle cars of that era looked like. Following
1963 the nameplate was dropped in favor of the Monaco.
You won't find too many of these cars on the used
car market, as they were last produced over 30 years
ago. There are usually some listed on eBay, which
is also a great place to look for parts or even an
entire Polara parts car.
