Most people knew the Plymouth Fury as a police car; but, if we step back and ponder it objectively, isn’t it a great car name? Too bad it’s gone, along with the brand which sired it.
While it’s not the first body style we think of, we’re pleased to present a Fury Sport Suburban Wagon for your enjoyment…
Tail gunner seat? Damn straight!
Green interior with woodgrain is absolutely beautiful in a 70s way. We love the bench with armrest and the eight track player!
Here’s the original 360. These weren’t among the best Mopar performers, but it should be torquey enough to move this pretty well and it should make nice noises. For once, we’re perfectly happy to see an automatic trans…it’s well suited to this family cruiser.

Fantastic opportunity for first time buyer or scrupulous 70’s Mopar wagon lover…No stone unturned…No surprise and nothing left undisclosed.
All questions welcome…More pictures available upon request…
A true “garage find”, Olive, as it is named by my wife, spent its entire life in Temple, Pennsylvania and was bought “sight unseen” in August 2013 from the widow of the first and only owner in 41 years. Described as a “no rust” and “always garage kept” original car by the old lady, this marvelous wagon was seldomly used from 1984 until 2013…95,060miles is the last mileage written on the 1984 “ Quaker State” oil change sticker found on the driver door inner fender.
Soon after taking delivery, a 3 months mechanical/body “frame on” refresh was commissionned to a local professional car restoring shop in order to bring our dreamed wagon back to glory. All rust (yes old widow do lie…) below the left/right chrome line was expertly removed, metal cutted and replaced the old fashionned way and repainted to match the paint above the chrome line. No short cut taken and no bondo used. Fantastic body work done by the restorer. It should be noted that in order to preserve the “patina vintage barn find look” the car was not totally re-painted and paint above chrome line is not “show type” but in driver condition with various touch up done over the years, surface scratches and imperfections. Front and back bumper very staight and without rust, chrome reflection is driver type in good condition. All chrome trims in good condition. The wagon show very well and attract attention wherever it goes.
Very well maintained, this large beauty runs and drives beautiful. The engine compartment is all stock and clean. This car always starts right up and float down the road like new. It has its original matching 360ci V8 engine that runs great and the original Torqueflite 3 speeds automatic transmission that shifts smooth. It is also sitting on a set of almost new Cooper white wall tires.
