1966 Sport Fury 4-Speed
I'm the brother with the new-to-me '66 Sport Fury (a couple months old now). I just joined A-bodies this morning (been a C-bodies member since I got the car) and this afternoon I found out from my brother that he posted about my car on this site, so I figured you folks needed some photos, even if they are of the C-barge variety (seems like these forums would wither away without photos). Without further ado, here are a few.
The car seems to be extremely original except for paint, upholstery (Texas heat apparently will mess that stuff up), and wheels. I tracked down the original owner of the car from the CertiCard and the trusty internet. I called and talked to him for 1/2 hour. He was in the Navy in '66 and drove his Austin Healey 3000 to the local Plymouth dealer in Tennessee and traded it in on this Sport Fury. He didn't special order the car, it was on the lot when he drove in.
The car does have a few options, namely the 383-4bbl, 4-speed, mighty 2 watt AM Transaudio radio (woohoo), and rear speaker (yes, singular). I've gotten the car back on the road with new brakes and tires, and it's a blast.
