1969 Plymouth Fury Convertible

Climate controlled storage car that was a local town owned vehicle specifically used for it's parade and fair events.

Not used since '95 and stored with decommissioned police cars from 70s and 80s , it was forgotten about as inventory, records , and accounting didn't exist for these items...life was good back then huh ? Lol

Needless to say ...in really good condition structurally and mechanically.

I bought car (and 8 other police cars) and have brought them back to life with every detail not overlooked.
Car was given to B.O.C.E.S. , a trade school curriculum for students who may or may not have college. It's auto courses are Mechanical and Auto Body respectively. The Fury went through both start to finish

First ....Mechanic Technical

Fuel system entirely replaced from tank and sending unit , lines , filters , as well as carburetor

Brake system completely replaced from Master Cylinder to lines , hoses, wheel cylinders, and all hardware, springs, shoes,drums.

Suspension refurbished around with replacement rubber bushings, grommets, and alignments.

Engine was poly flushed , compression tested without faults , new plugs , wires , distributor , as well as oil pan drop , main and bearing inspections , valve guide inspections and adjustments , new gaskets and detailing.

Transmission was flushed with new filters, gaskets, and valve control moduale.

Exhaust was completely replaced from manifold back including all hardware and hangers.

Car turns key , starts , runs and drives as it should ...no ticks , no taps , no smoke , no noises , no B.S.

Second...Auto Body Technition

Overall body lines and contouring were straight as car has never been hit or accident...not that many town parades are speedways or danger zones. Lol

Car was completely stripped down to metal and Dupont epoxy sealed and primed

As far as rust , rot , or panel repair...the rear quarter bottoms on both sides were only areas needing attention .
Rear passenger floorboard had new tin put in
Trunk was poly sealed with fiberglass resin for strength.

Paint is high gloss , period correct ,
"High Impact' Alpine White , reproduced by 3M for this project.

Car was painted completely 100% with under hood , door jams , and under trunk lid included. Under hood has new heat shield matting installed

Oh man they couldn’t even take the masking tape and paper of the car before taking pictures. Fibreglass repair done in the trunk. Big Red Flags IMO

I agree and disagree with the glass in the trunk. Is it a cut corner? Absolutely. Depending on how rusty it really was it may not be too big of a problem. Treating and patching a few small thin spots that way should hold up fine for many many years if the car is taken care of and not exposed to the elements. But if the trunk floor was toast and they matted the entire thing with glass would be a complete different story. They should have unmasked the car and taken pictures of the trunk repair.
 
I attended B.O.C.E.S for Auto body back in the early 70's. At that time donated cars couldn't be resold. After we were done with them they had to be scrapped. Not sure how it is now buy what is the title/registration status? I know NY didn't have titles before 1973 but is ownership legally transferable on this car?

The BOCES school near me does some ''custo mer" cars once in a while. The stars have to align and it's not free, but they don't just work on donated cars.

True John but the op stated that it was a donated car. Might not be an issue but it would be nice to know.
 
Some one teaching the paint class needs their head examined, all the chrome should have come off for a quality job.

Start to finish...

"Car was completely stripped down to metal and Dupont epoxy sealed and primed "
Didn't happen... How was it stripped under that chrome mounding?

"Transmission was flushed with new filters, gaskets, and valve control moduale."
really??? Exactly WHERE is this "valve control moduale" located?

"valve guide inspections and adjustments "
Explain to me how to adjust a valve guide?

Screw it,, why bother going on... Y'all know this is a total bullshit advert......

The trunk lid is misaligned among other flaws.
 
Wot da hell is a poly flush? Several search engines turned up: 3D Printing Cleaning Solvent & Poly-Flush is a very versatile polymer flushing solvent.


I'll raise the :bs_flag: on this one!
 
I could ask same about ``Auto body technition.``
 
Somebody run that New York plate number! Yes, it's for sure being over-represented.....but I like it. If the guy would take a couple grand for it & it's truly drivable, I'd take it (assuming this isn't a scam ad).

Kinda make me wonder if this was some high school kids auto shop project. Who ever posted the ad knows very little about cars and probably less about trying to sell one.
