I agree completely about the christine thing and quite likely paying to restore this car may have one upside down as is with most restorations, however I've seen exceptions with these sometimes reaching well into 6 figures - not that I'm saying to expect that. I know this pink car is a...

1958 Belvedere and 1958 Fury cars are among the most expensive and sought after of this vintage. Done right you shouldn't be upside down. I'd put this car together completely and correctly. Don't turn a top of the line car into a lesser Savoy, that doesn't make sense. All the missing aluminum...

Nah.. it's just as easy and probably less work keeping it all Mopar instead of grafting a modern-ish crown victoria taxi cab under the Plymouth body. Keeping it Mopar and original won't be murdering the entire potential value either like that dude is. Metal is very available for this car, its...

Restoring this car would not be impossible at all, what should make someone reconsider starting with this car is all the missing parts which all need a 58 Belvedere 2dr hardtop to replace. Those parts are nothing less than a nightmare to have to find and very expensive if you can. Additionally...

Just so it's said because levels of experience vary, that transmission is one heavy awkward SOB, so if you are yanking that thing at home on your back, be careful! Work slow and sober, do not cut safety corners and be damn sure to have the correct jacks/stabilizers and help. It's much easier...

That is a ton of work for some big uncertain if's. You should use the entire 62 drivetrain engine and transmission. Look into Imperial Services for advice on getting a custom transmission cable to do your swap. I wouldn't swap internal engine parts swaps without having a competent machine shop...

That is a very cool car!

eh.. I just don't see it as better but to each his own.. my head is an inch from the headliner as it is. I don't want to slouch or hunch over just to drive so mine will be kept the way it is and be just fine.

The documentation I have with my Fury lists a 49 Plymouth sedan being traded in on a new '58 Fury at the time... they didn't all go from great to lesser...

I like customs generally but I never understood people who try to chop the roof of a forwardlook era hardtop. I mean, one of the major things that Exner did was lower the roofline. Any lower just looks pancaked to me. That's too bad..

The Fury has silver V, all the others were Gold.

It's kind of a pain in the *** but you might consider running a filter right before the fuel pump as well at least for awhile. Did you pull the fuel tank? There should be a slip on sock filter on the end of the sending unit pick up I think as early as 59.. It's plastic so if its very old it may...

Make sure it isn't washing the cylinders with fuel.. Big M will have rebuildable ones.. here is supposedly a rebuilt unit which should be correct.. Rebuilt Carter BBD 2-Barrel Carburetor 1957-1961 Dodge Plymouth Chrysler V-8 | eBay

If the tank isn't rusted just replace the seals, there is an o ring for the filler neck into the tank and a gasket for the sending unit and an asphaltic paper on top of the tank My hat is off to you for bringing it back to the road where it belongs. It never should have been thrown away. Keep...

That IS nice. what a wonderful 60 there!

That thing needs a 361/383 motor and needs to see the road again.. that's rad.

Considering they only built 435 coupes and 123 convertibles.. the likelihood of seeing one at all would be difficult. They didn't need much advertising in those build numbers..

I would also encourage you to share your unique find on the www.forwardlook.net site, we very much appreciate and enjoy this sort of thing over there! That is without a doubt a very rare unique car. A friend of mine had a 58 Sport Suburban wagon factory equipped with the golden commando big...

All well and good and that is an awesome car, I have the original dealer write up and the original title for my car as well - before window stickers. I would still encourage you to get the build sheet! It is a wonderful service and everyone should have it to accompany their car, especially...

They didn't have an emblem on the dash. It probably isn't a real factory ram car. Post pics of the inner fenders, there are tell-tales there. Also there is a guide book on the sonoramic cars someone put together out there and you can get a copy of the build sheet from FCA "Chrysler" so long as...
