RE: 63' Polara 500 MW

["Gray, John SK1" <John.S.Gray@xxxxxxxx>]

Yeah I've heard that, there is a long history with this car at the 64 winter nationals and my Dad has owned it since the mid 70's with only the story that the car was "the" car.  There were a couple of my fathers long time "friends" from socal that sought us out and have been bugging him to buy the car, I figured it was time to check the fender tag before he made the deal.

Welcome John. 

Sounds like a perfect candidate for a full resto!

Be aware that Galen Govier's database is not complete for our favorite 
years' Mopars. This is not a put-down, just a FYI. Any unrestored 
original max car is pretty scarce nowadays.

Look forward to the eventual pictures.

Thanks,
Gary H.
