Vehicle History:
I purchased this car the first day it was offered for sale. I ran into some financial difficulty and had it "sold" several times, this car has created headaches and some hard feelings. I have received bounced checks, deposits with no follow through and numerous empty promises. It seems it was meant to stay. I put a 383 out of a 68 ply. fury cop car into it, alum 1962 tf trans, modified driveline. Installed disc brakes system off a 76 volare. all this before i tried to sell it. Car has not been licensed in 12 years, having sat in last owners garage for 10 years. At one time had a 440 four speed set up in it. Has new red and white interior ready to be installed. I have driven this car about 50 feet. WIth and exhaust system and a few minor tweads this car is ready to go, I just can not get motivated and am so frustrated at how I have been treated by potential buyers I have decided to just let it sit in my garage until the right time to restore it or sell it again comes around. I only wanted 5995.00 for it which I thought was a fair price for an original Fury. Car has original buckskin paint under red. Christine type restoration was begun. I have always loved this car and the movie. Maybe I can put bad experiences behind me and do something with this car. Any suggestions?
I have owned 57 plymouths, 59 dodges, 60 dodges and even a beautiful 59 sport fury and 59 2dr ht belvedere as well.I love the fin cars!!!
Follow up: This car was eventually sold on eBay in early 2002
