Description:

*1968 Plymouth Fury III Convertible*
Before you is my 1968 Plymouth Fury III Convertible
*A solid car throughout. (floors, frame, frame rails) I lifted the trunk mat last week and found some rust underneath it, the only rust on the car. I have held off on this and will leave it up to the new owner to address as they see fit...a pic illustrates the surface extent.
*Very low miles, only 13, 000 +/- since the 318 engine was rebuilt!
*Garaged & pampered, non smoker, no pets.
*Restorative work performed from 2006-present consisted of the following:
*Complete rebuild of the original 318 V8 engine. It starts every time & holds a smooth idle.
*Assuredly, there are NO annoying drips or leaks anywhere!
*Fuel tank was removed, cleaned and resealed.
*The AC was removed and not reinstalled. It would need a new compressor, condensor, lines, etc.
*Rebuild of the 3-speed, factory 727 torque flite automatic transmission, it shifts very smoothly.
*Front end rebuild, tie rods, control arms, ball joints & shocks, it feels tight and does not jump around.
*A new oversized radiator was installed
*Power steering and power brakes were added. The rear drums were turned, and front end calipers were added installed. The emergency brake holds and releases properly. The steering is light & easy, the Fury floats!
*The car was completely rewired front to back in addition to new plugs, belts, and hoses.
*Fully block sanded & repainted in Plum Crazy purple. The paint finish still presents with a nice luster.
*The seating areas have been re-upholstered in black and gray in a style similar to the original.
*The Dash was wrapped and new floor matts were put in and new door panels were installed
*The power top operates properly in both up & down modes. New vinyl top 2013.
*New halogen headlights were added and all lights work
*New wheels and tires were installed
*Door panels & sun visors are in good shape
*All original glass throughout, no cracks. All windows track properly through their up and down motions. The side vent windows crank open and close tightly.
*Window gaskets and weather stripping are decent, however, they are starting to show their age. The trunk gasket shows the most age.
*The chrome is presentable on both bumpers with no flakes, chips or pitting.
*The original Am radio is not installed, but comes with the car (along with some other parts if desired). This vehicle is being sold without the radio.
*The clock tells the correct time twice each day! Forget what time it is...when you're in the Fury III Convertible, it's time to have fun!
*The horn is operable.
All lights, high & low beams, dash, vanity, side markers, directionals and even the top fender turn signals are functional.
*All features and equipment including the instrument gauges are operational.
*All knobs, buttons, and stalks are present
*Recent service included a new battery, filters, all fresh fluids, belts & hoses, etc.
The Fury looks, runs & drives great! I have used it as a daily driver. While it is not a show car, it is a very presentable driver quality example of American automotive history.
The Fury can be driven anywhere with pride of ownership. It always garners compliments and receives the...thumbs up!
