Send some my way. I will look with my brother, and I will pass them to my dad.. whom seems to be very good at this.
To get this thread back on topic.. I have a 66 Plymouth VIP.. which looks the same as a Plymouth Fury III.
Heres a Grey 66 VIP (only its four door and mines two door)
Here is a two door Fury
Russ, PC PM'd me and i was able to figure it out pretty quickly. I had the make and rough year down in a few seconds just a matter of doing some google image searches to tighten it up a bit.
My best friend in high school had a Fury III - it was an enormous automobile. It was a two door as well, I'm thinking it was 66 but it looked bigger than the ones in your picture ... maybe i was just smaller then ?!?!
Congrats on the ID! Sometimes its so hard to do with only a photograph not showing some of the features particular to that model year.
Yeah, they are an enormous vehicle, mines been off the road for years, as I have to do some touchups and rebuilding of the tranny and engine. They sat for so long that all the seals have gone hard. The engine still runs, and runs good amazingly enough, even with the carb having sat with the gas varnishing up. Its not a 440 in there which I would have liked, its only a 318. Still really good condition for a 66.. It was bought brand new by my grandfather.
I agree the photographs are misleading.. its STILL big, lol.
Ive been looking for an actual muscle car. Browsing all the adds and craigslists for a barracuda or a challenger. I dont really want a dart or a charger, they are really overdone.
