One-Family-Owned 1963 Plymouth Fury 2-Door Hardtop

OVERVIEW

This 1963 Plymouth Fury 2-Door Hardtop has been owned by the same family since new. As part of a gradual restoration process completed by Gearhead Garage of Sacramento, California, it has been repainted at a reported cost in excess of $14,000, furnished with a new interior, and equipped with updated climate control, engine, steering, suspension, and braking components. It is powered by the reportedly original 318cid V8 backed by a push-button TorqueFlite three-speed automatic transmission. Features include power steering, a Vintage Air climate control system, a Hotchkis Sport Suspension kit, Wilwood power disc brakes, and a MagnaFlow dual exhaust system. Finished in Dark Metallic Blue over a blue vinyl and cloth interior, this Fury comes from the selling dealer with restoration receipts and California registration.

EXTERIOR – FEATURES

Approximately eight years ago, the reportedly rust-free body was stripped to bare metal and refinished in the original factory color of Dark Metallic Blue (code EE1). Features include chrome bumpers with bumper guards, dual rearview mirrors, and rear body trim. The selling dealer states that one headlight needs to be replaced, the exterior paint has been ceramic-coated, and the trim has been restored.

EXTERIOR - WHEELS AND TIRES

A set of 15-inch American Racing Torq Thrust wheels is wrapped in 225/60 BFGoodrich radial tires.

INTERIOR – FEATURES

The cabin is furnished with a front bench seat that has been reupholstered in blue vinyl and cloth and a matching reupholstered rear seat surrounded by newer door panels and trim. Features include manual windows, a dashboard-mounted push-button automatic transmission shifter, power steering, a Vintage Air climate control system, an AM radio, Stinger X-Mat sound damping material for the floorboards, thermal insulation for the headliner, and newer blue carpeting and floor mats.

INTERIOR – GAUGES

The overhauled instrumentation consists of a 120-mph speedometer, a clock, and gauges for the fuel level, temperature, and voltage. The odometer reads 31,549 miles, but the true mileage on this vehicle is unknown.

ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION

Power is provided by the reportedly original, resealed 318cid V8 and backed by a push-button TorqueFlite three-speed automatic transmission equipped with a custom-built 2,200-2,400-rpm stall converter.

An oil change was completed in October 2022.
