1971 Dodge Polara

1971 Dodge Polara
My 1971 Dodge Polara as it looked when I last had it. It was taken with a Minolta XD11 and Kodak Kodachrome 25 film. However, I shot the film and the roll got stuck in a drawer for 25 years before it was developed. When it was developed, it looked awful, but at least the pictures turned out somewhat.

Some of the things I had done to my wagon up to this point were:
Removed the front bench seat and replaced it with custom bucket seats.
Removed the back seat and laid the platform down. I was attempting to make it into a sedan delivery.
Shaved the rear door handles, welded the back doors shut and filled in the seams.
Had side pipes installed.
Lowered the front in about 3-4 inches.
Since it came from the factory with a spoiler on the top above the back door, I crafted a front airdam out of sheet metal and welded it on.
Installed hood pins to keep the hood down secure.
Filled in the seams for the front cap where it attached to the front fenders.
Painted the grill a flat black.
Removed most of the chrome.

It looks like it doesn't have a front driver's side wheel, but that's just because I had gotten two new tires for the front and the rims were black with no hubcaps. Just after this picture was taken, I had 60's mounted on the rear. Even though they were a little wider than stock, they still fit under the fenders without rubbing.
