Nice low option 66 Polara at a local show yesterday

[300rag]

This is an all original Canadian built low option Polara 440 that the current owner has had for about a year. Only 30K on the clock. Still had the original dealer sticker on the rear. 318 Poly with a 3 on the tree.

Interesting - same dash board / instrument cluster that my '65 4-dr Polara had, also a Canadian car. I didn't know they did this for both '65 and '66. I think the dash "pad" was all metal on my car, maybe this is vinyl?

I have a spare cluster and guages and trim, I think technically these are Fury parts?

Yes, the interior is Fury and AFAIK the dashes were padded in 66. The instruments were the same for 65/66.

Time capsule, to say the least, great color as well........ although low-option'ed, by virtue of having column shift, this "Plodge" is nonetheless equipped with the "millenial anti-theft device.......

Eons ago I took my drivers test in a 66 Polara .
It was a four door sedan also in this same color though a 383 automatic drive train.
I actually passed the test on the first try even though I flunked parallel parking

I’ve never seen as many nice c bodies as I did in BC and Alberta. That is certainly no exception. I miss my Canadian 68 Monaco. 318 LA and all.

"The millenial anti-theft device"!!!!!!!! My brother bought a 1964 440 a couple of years ago. Slant 6, 3 on the tree. It was in Detroit. The owner left the keys in the ashtray and went to work. When the transport driver, guy in his 30s, arrived he had to call the owner to load the car because he didn't know how to drive it. I drive a truck for a living. When these new guys get their CDL they are stamped with a restriction "automatic only." They are no longer taught how to drive a manual.
