Description

1961 Plymouth Fury 2 Door Hardtop, ame owner since 1973. Vehicle runs and drives, 25 Slant 6 engine starts and runs,has exhaust manifold leak but engine is quiet internally and is smooth and holds coolant and does not over heat.The transmission is weak and I believe the reason the car was parked in the garage in 2010.Forward / Drive engages but reverse slips . We got a brake pedal but expect some brake work before cruise night! It grabs and pulls. Brakes are non-power as is the steering. Fuel tank is leaking and will need to be repaired or replaced. It is currently running on a remote fuel jug. This car has plenty of work to do, t will need work in the quarters,rockers and trunk. The frame rails have been patched and plated over the years and someone spent the time doing it but it is a work in progress. With that sai, the car needs to be restored and deserves to be restored either stock or possibly a mild custom? The interior looks to have been done sometime in the last 20 years,a simple recover with 60/40 bench seat that is pleasing to look at and is in very good condition as is.Headliner board looks original and in good to very good condition. The car still wears belted tires from the 70's and are in need of replacement. I really like this cars style and although awkward looking at certain angles it is soooo sleek at others, itting behind the wheel is a trip, t is a spaceship straight from Detroit.All trim brightwork and stainless are present except "Plymouth spear" on right side,most stainless is very good,though some will need reconditioning.I have a reasonable reserve put on it and obviously will need to be transported as she is not ready for a road trip as is. All costs of transport and arrangements for transport are that of the high bidder.I would be happy to answer any questions via email or we can exchange number, y work schedule is pretty tight but I can get back usually by the end of the day.

I have added some under hood and some of the undercar. Please note that the previous owner had undercoated much of the car. Some of what you see is undercoat peeling away and not sheet metal.It appears that frame wise from the torsion bar crossmember forward there is no issues structurally,this includes the forward rails though there is a patch on a section of rail. The suspension mounting points are boxed in around rear spring shackl, shock mounts are solid.Trunk is porous in areas but fuel tank mounting is solid,fuel tank needs repair or replace.Under hood is solid,hood hinge mounts are solid, umper mounting areas strong. Rockers need replacement and lower fender area rusted but still workable. Trunk extensions are weak and show signs of previous repair.Quarters also show previous repair and are deteriorating. Door pillars are solid and doors open and close suprisingly well.In the pictures you can see the boxing in of rear frame rails,work is passable and looks like it was done a long time ago I cannot post all the pictures but if you need something in particular let me know.Now the good news ! The wife of the owner has thrown in a load of 1961 fury parts,all used from a donor car(no fuel tank though) and has let me drop the reserve SO BID TO OWN THE CAR!!!!I have to load up a truck but it looks like a load of stainless trim,hood,trunk,door, clean windshield and brake drums,it was in a loft and I will be picking it up tomorrow,a definite plus for someone who wants to cherry pick some trim and sheet metal. The fenders were not especially clean but it was hard to see the rest in the loft area in garage.
