Yes I am buying one more this weekend and calling it quits until my convertible and/or wagon pops up. Gotta start putting my cash towards finishing what I have and moving out of my folks place.
1971 Polara 2 door Hardtop.

Yeah, I said something like "just one more" 30 years ago and it didn't do a thing for my habit either. Ha!

Took Minnesota downtown Chicago yesterday to do a friends brakes on his Maserati TC. I-90 is like the autobahn heading west out of the city.

Not much of a fan of the car, but I like $ and having a solid reason to leave Rockford for the afternoon.

How is the car in that dense city traffic? And overheating problems? Easy to maneuver and overtake cars?

The car always runs good. Never overheats. You'd be surprised it's a 318-2v. Judging from comments I've gotten from members that have rode in it, it's no pooch.

318s are better than thought. Then again, the car isnt as heavy as it appears.
The 360 is a nice small block engine in these. I had a 340 in one once. I pulled from a 70 3 speed duster. That car screamed.

My 340 in my Cordoba was ALOT of fun with the 3:91 sure grip. I'm surprised I still have a license.

They pull hard while screaming, not like a BB though.
I never had a rear to speak of till my 69 sport Fury. That I put 373s in after the stock rear locked up on me. What a difference, that was my slap in the face education on rears

Nothing wrong with a 318 of any era... A stock LA 318 will hold together until the stock ignition breaks up... so screaming, but going works. Not a torque monster, but never disregard their abilities.

Well...I put the squad wheels back on, put the 120 MPH speedo back in. I should just change her name to Tallahassee, because that's where she's headed...
Deal is done?

Working out transport. We have a verbal agreement at this time. As much as it hurts to let go...I have no problem letting another one go get the love it needs in a warmer place far from the rust belt. Plus if I play my cards right maybe I'll be able to afford to buy the Squad and Minnesota back in a few years and they will already be restored for me while I focus on my current line up for the time being.

And if all else fails I could just paint the Monaco FQ5 and boom. I'm back in a Turquoise 71 and it's got the cooler tail lights.

I would say the new owner is a Mopar lover, nice Dodge 3500 towing his new to him ride home. It should be in good hands. Did you tell him to check us out here?
