I think the '66 Polara had the 6-way mechanically adjustable seats that the Dealer would adjust to 'fit' you. I wonder if the car you bought has one of those seats and it was adjusted to a position that's better for you? I know a lot of those cars were adjusted for women who bought them back then as their daily driver. It was a big selling point for Chrysler corp. cars to have those seats to get the women buyers (or get husbands to buy them for their wives).
Ok, Speed Racer.not the way I drive!!65 = 75-80 75=85...
I know what you mean because I was on there years ago when I had my 70 fury (like 5+ years ago)
Surprisingly, they are nearly identical in size...with the '70 Fury being just slightly larger on the exterior.
I was surpised to find out that early A cars are a couple inches longer than the later ones.
It's all just visual perception based on proportions. I use it in my art work regularly and auto manufacturers still use it to their advantage even today to make bigger cars look smaller and smaller cars look bigger.
worst part about that, is that in some jurisdictions once that phone call is made on a "domestic" the individual cannot drop the charges even if they want to.
