Two of a kind (PIC)

I don't like "loners" in my collection. By that I mean a car that has nothing similar to display it next to. I was very happy to add the NEO '72 Dodge Polara to my collection, as I LOVE the "Fuselage" Mopars, but it was sort of like a fish out of water if you know what I mean. Well, I found something PERFECT to put next to it! What do you think? I am so happy with it!photo no longer available

I like to see 4 or 2 door sedans, Not everything on the streets back in the day was a convertible, two door hardtop, or woody.
And not everything was the top of the line edition.

Agree - like the Monaco, it has blackwalls and dog-dish hubcaps, yet it has a vinyl top!

But not the first version. It's like they intended to do a Blues Bros. version but ...

...didn't get the rights.

I don't think the chrome molding should be across the C-pillar on a car w/o vinyl top.

You have the ultra-rare error version;)

Look great together! I've also seen pics of NEO's Polara with whitewalls but the small hubcaps.

That would fit in well!
