hey all, has it really been almost 10 months? well, here's an uneventful update: I don't have a Fury yet. My sis, Mom, my girl and Uncle all made good points. They're all greasemonkeys too btw. They wanted me to be sure this was the car for me, now. so... I raced a Factory Five Racing...

hey, no making fun of a person that hasn't had their fill of good joe in the morning! :poke: I'm of the "coffee pot never empties" belief. I'm so upset too, as much as I love my lady (she is after all supporting me 100% in this) she washed my coffee cup! :BangHead: I'm definitely leaning...

Thank you all so much for those links!! especially the "diamond in the rough" area known as Tuscon! who knew?!? I'm really excited about these two: http://tucson.craigslist.org/cto/4259908143.html - thanks Wollfen and http://tucson.craigslist.org/cto/4225558709.html...

never heard the terms like that before :D I'm a fan of the "slabs" and "fuseys" the most. Yeah, that 72 basically had an RV 413 put in it, it was a 318 originally. Not a fan. I'm looking for something a wee bit more original and stock. I've found a couple slab Furys for sale around here, but...

Thanks for that link Mr C. Yeah, I'm really looking forward to my big C-body Fury :glasses7: I'm pretty sure Ellwood would be pretty happy with my ride choice :os_dancing2: and it'll be very entertaining at local autocross events once I tune it up. and yes, there's a funny story behind my...

so far, the cars I've found have been fairly straight and good looking in the pictures. Most are 383 powered, 727 trans, 8 3/4 rear. All of which sounds good to me. My question is, what's a good price for one of these cars? I know plenty of BS when I see it, and that's not my concern. I'm...

okay, that's a relief. Basically I've found three cars, fairly close, that are in that type of condition: "mainly left it stock, rebuilt brakes (drums all around), rebuilt bushings in the suspension, rebuilt tranny, rebuilt engine, new carb, new distributor, new wires, new plugs, etc. Kept her...

Great looking 66 Fury you have there. I'm really starting to like that generation of Fury, there's just something sweet about them. Good luck on your restoration.

Man I keep replaying that video of your Fury now :D that's a great car!! Amazing, very healthy sounding 440 in there. Listening to the Blues Brothers music while also playing your video - sweet sweet sounds of pure bliss!! awesome car!

All of those Furys are sweet! From the newest of the noobs, welcome! I love your black Fury. I know all about wide open spaces myself, enjoying some good clean air and open range out here in Arizona myself! Be sure to keep us updated on your Fury, she's a sweet ride!

Hey all, basically everywhere I go by Grumpy Badger (kind of redundant I know :D ) I don't own a C-body MOPAR, yet. It's my goal here, to first find a good one and then contribute to the group with my work on that car. I've been a fan of big MOPARs since first seeing "The Blues Brothers" as...
