Slant Six 1969 Plymouth Fury III on Craigslist
BangShift has found this clean but dusty (is that even possible?) 1969 Fury III on Craigslist. This car is very unusual in that, while the Fury III was near the top of the Fury lineup, it’s equipped with a slant 6 and a manual three speed! Chrysler’s six was a war horse but in a 1969 C-body? Can you say sluggish acceleration? Find the original Craigslist ad here. More pics after the jump!
Have You Seen This 1970 Plymouth Fury III Convertible?
I sold it in San Francisco in the mid 1990s. It’s a green/green 383 car and I want it back! Please e-mail me if you’ve seen it!
Wrap Up From the Charles Kee Estate Sale
The Charles Kee Estate Sale was May 8th and 9th in Brothers, Oregon and it was a blast to attend. They had 1000 boxes of parts for sale and 200 cars, most of it Mopar! I was there from the front lines bidding and buying parts along with a bunch of other Mopar fanatics. The cars ended up going for pretty cheap, most at not much more than scrap prices with a few exceptions. The parts were a little more expensive but lots of treasures were to be found in the hundreds and hundreds of banana boxes that Charles Kee used to store stuff. It is hard to show the scale of how many parts were here but we tried with this picture.
Plymouth Sport Fury GT: Muscle Car?
Produced for only two model years (1970 and 1971), The Plymouth Sport Fury GT was Plymouth’s attempt at a full size muscle car. The 440 4 bbl was the popular choice but a 6 bbl was an option, too. I love the sinister styling. What say you? Could a C-body be considered a muscle car? Hooniverse is asking. More pics after the jump!
Roadkill Runs the 24 Hours of Lemons in a 1973 Plymouth Fury
The latest installment of Roadkill has Freiburger and Finnegan competing at the 24 Hours of Lemons in a 1973 Plymouth Fury. I hate to see these boats ending up at demolition derbys and the like (I have a 1974 Fury) but I gotta admit, it’s damn entertaining! Video after the jump!
The Ultimate C-body?
1965 Plymouth Sport Fury Indy Pace Car For Sale on Hemmings
1965 was the first (and last) year that a Plymouth was selected as the Indianapolis 500 pace car. The chosen model was the Sport Fury convertible. There were 35 actual pace cars built for the race. Plymouth also produced one replica for each dealership in the country. That number varies between 1,300 and 1,900, depending on who you believe. See a very nice replica for sale on Hemmings.
