New UK '66 Polara owner!
Hi,
I've just bought a '66 Polara 383 2-door hardtop with the help of a good friend in Oregon. It sounds & looks great on the clips he's sent me (check out "Dodge on Drive" and "1966 Polara" on Youtube).
I'll be shipping it back to the UK very soon where it'll probably be the only one on the road!
It would be great if you guys can help point me the right way on a few things?
The power steering box leaks & I'm thinking of putting a manual box on it - recommended or not?
The front end suspension needs re-bushing. Best to go with poly stuff or stock?
The interior is the worst part & I want to get it looking nice. Anyone know where I can get hold of a pair of original front seats which I think would have been buckets with a center armrest? I could also do with a pair of new door cards - does anyone in the US sell these from stock?
Oh yeah, what opinions do you have on wheels. I quite like stock Mopar steels but what do you think looks best?
Thanks,
Martin
