*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!
You are
bidding to purchase the Fury, not to be the first to, look at it.
Inspections are welcomed and will be facilitated to the best of my ability

I have set a
very reasonable reserve for the Fury, it
is commensurate with the car, the car's condition and the low miles.

The Fury and I are located in the Kansas City vicinity. While I am confident that the Fury could be driven home to anywhere in the states (I recently drove it from Michigan), remember that it is a 46 year old automobile and as such, is sold in as is condition.
If you elect to fly in and drive home, I will gladly pick you up from the airport.

The key to a successful ebay experience for both parties is effective communication. That said, I answer my e-mail quicker than I respond to phone.

The Fury is an affordable fun classic convertible that does not require one to break the bank to own. It is ready for the drive-in, an ice cream run with the grandkids, late summer evening cruises or a weekend in the mtns. for the upcoming fall foliage! (it has excellent heat & defrost)
Thanks for looking and good luck when you bid!
