Just discovered this website. I thought i was the only person who had one. Great to see others out there. Will try to attach a picture or two, but am new at this. Mine was found under a collapsed barn . It was pretty rough!! Its a great ride now. Steve
Welcome aboard Steve. Tell us more about your car. Where do you live?
You will really enjoy this site. Dan (aka Faulkner) does an excellent job keeping this site up and running.
Feel free to ask questions - there are many helpful people on this site.
That's one heck of a great find there, Steve! Looks to be in really nice cimdition as well.
I'm working on a SF convertible as well, but slowly bringinging it back from it's dilapidated condition from setting in the woods for 40 years. ---John
Hi-Curt,John,Matthew and rogerh-great to hear from all of you. My SF has the 318 w/power pack. Hardened valves and balancing. Still needs some cosmetics, but i have a large car family so my fury needs to await its seat at the table!! I'm located in the souther tier of New York off I88 in Sidney. John i saw your postings on your convertable project-my god- thats a real project! Good luck with it. I had challanges with mine-top bows and missing X member mount come to mind right off. This Winter will get to some much needed finish work ie re chrome and probably repaint-my body work tends toward the amature.Matthew - your right i never noticed the black accent or deaccent on the head light surround. rogerh-fender skirts are on-i've still got to fit the stoneguards which need some jiggering for fit. All your cars look great!!
Hi Steve, so glad you found our site! I've been playing tour guide to a Dutch contingent ( ) and otherwise preoccupied with work -- so I'm only now discovering your post. Welcome aboard! I hope you enjoy the site. And maybe someday when I find the time, we'll build you a web page in the showcase.
Thanks Faulkner-
the web page sounds inneresting. I'm trying to refine my digital camers operation. It seems there is a fine line between pixel setting and e-mail attachability. I found my "Plym" in a guys shed while looking at a project p/u truck he had advertised. I mentioned i was also interested in finding an old convertable. He'd found it sitting next to a collapsed building in 1991 and kept it dry until i bought it in 2004. Will work om improving picture quality! These old before pictures are pictures of pictures i'd taken with a conventional camera.
Fun! A white car with red interior and black top. I like the custom top boot, it's "different". Paint job looks good too, but I know phots don't show orange peel, or other flaws.
Yes, Fall is coming in fast! Still some time to drive your car-
During your repaint - I believe the valance under the bumper should be painted "argent" silver/gray?
Perhaps the experts here can chime in on the correct paint for this part.
You were lucky to still have this piece in useale condition.
Thanx John Q. my camera started to smoke while taking the top down pics so will have to let it cool down! Your right rogerh. My camera is very image friendly. The "old plym" still has some of the "barn crushing patina". I couldnt swing an NOS interior- so enlisted an uphosterer that preferred fishen an beer drinken to time behind a sewen machine. Many gray hairs later we arrived at a furyish interior. He did a pretty good job. Curt i have noticed the bumper valances appearing chrome like in photos. Will definately take your advice. Happy Trails
