    Brochures and ads for sale

    Where would be an appropriate place to post dealer brochures and magazine ads I have that I would like to sell? Of course, I would keep it C-body specific here. Thanks!

    SOLD 1973 Fury Gran Sedan Broigham

    Since my original sale post is buried and no longer accessible, I thought I'd post that the tripe pickle has been sold and is on the way to the new owner in New York. Last year was tough and losing my job was the final insult that made me put the car up for sale. So PP43M3F264474 is off the...

    Engine cleaning - easy does it?

    So, Esther's engine bay needs to be cleaned up so I could show it properly with the hood open. What can I use that will not further remove any of the paint from the valve covers? You can see there are a coupe of places where it's flaked off over 47 years. I am guessing the firewall is covered...

    For Sale 1973 Plymouth Fury Gran Sedan MINE

    Well, my job was just eliminated, so I have to put Esther up for sale. 73 Gran Sedan with the Brougham package, 75,000 miles, original paint, interior and top. Before I bought in in March, she got new radiator & hoses, front brake calipers and 2bbl carb. Since I got her, I added a new gas tank...

    Stripped the screw head..NOW what do I do?

    This is on the sill plate on a 73 Fury 4 door. Penetrating liquid didnt budge it, and when I used my drill with Phillip's attachment, it just stripped out the head so I can't get anything in there. I'm thinking the Ziebart material cemented it in place, but the outer two came out with a little...

    73 Fury assembly manual

    Does anyone have an assembly manual so I can see how to remove the lap belt from a Gran Sedan? I think I have figured it out, but don't want to be having to replace unobtainable interior trim pieces..... The shop manuals do not go into detail when it comes to this. Thanks.

    73 Fury lap belt....

    I figured that the only way to get to the lap belt retractor was to remove both sill plates and slide up the trim piece on the stub of the B pillar where the belt comes through and covers the mechanism. Managed to get the two outer screws out of front plate, but the middle one won't budge...

    Front passenger seatbelt won't retract

    73 Gran Fury. Seatbelt is fully extended so I can read the tag sewn on it. Tugging does not help. It originally retracted about halfway and if I fed it in, it would finish retracting, but nothing works now. Is there something I can do, like sticking something inside to get it loosened up?

    Stalling, rough idle

    Finally got Esther tagged and this morning was to be her maiden voyage in Florida. Started fine, but noticed a little rough idle. In gear it’ll bog and stall. Start up again, put in gear move a few feet and stall again. Kept left foot on brake and managed to back up the block and pull into...

    The Triple Pickle makes it to Florida!

    Remember that nice 73 Gran Sedan from a month or so ago? It just got delivered today. Thanks to traintech55 for vetting it for me. The car is as nice as the seller's pictures. I just have to get used to a big, thin steering wheel, a seat that doesn't go back as far as I'd like and that...

    Lane change turn directional upgrade?

    Years ago I remember a tech article in some magazine about replacing the turn signal cam in the steering column to allow for the "lane change" feature without having to "click" it fully left or right turn. Is this feasible, or was I just remembering wrong?
