    Introduction of Sport Fury 67

    If you had disc brakes, you had 15" wheels, and there probably weren't many or any other options for caps at that point. Interesting, as it's the first time I've seen them on a Fury. We had several Mopars when I was a kid including a '68 4 dr Fury. If I came across the '68 version of your car...

    Introduction of Sport Fury 67

    BEAUTIFUL ride you have there! I'm with Matt, that's the roof line I prefer on these cars. Looks like rather than finding a diamond in the rough, you found a diamond that just needs a little polishing. Did the 15" disc brake hubcaps come with it or were they added later? Never seen them on a...

    Introduction of Mike T.

    You are a kindred spirit: Previously project here was a '52 F-1 which I sold and even made a few $ on. Went from that to a '66 C-Body that I'm already upside-down in. It's great fun. :D Just be aware: there's nothing gentle about this bunch. They are indeed knowledgeable and helpful, though...

    I really just cant do a flip

    Welcome aboard - nothing wrong with being cheap, though 'thrifty' sounds better. :D I don't mind the folks who 'pick', 'flip', or whatever else you want to call it. They bring a lot of things back to the light of day that may not be seen again for years, if at all. It's the idiots who need to...

    New guy in NC; 65 New Yorker

    Wishful thinking on my part - I like the early models the best, first 2-3 years. They're all cool cars, though. Common as dirt once, hardly seen these days, it seems. Glad you have one stashed away. BTW, if you're interested in a 300 2 dr, let me know. Saw a '65 2 dr by the road recently...

    New guy in NC; 65 New Yorker

    Welcome, Colt. I'm in Franklinton, actually almost Wilton. Maybe 10-15 miles from Bob. Fairly new here myself having joined in July. Nice looking New Yorker with the extra back window. Love the color. Nice garage, too - very utilitarian 40s-50s look to it. Is that an early 70s Trans Am to the...

    New guy with a 65 Sport Fury

    Welcome aboard, that's a nice ride. Just curious - do you by chance have any photos you could post (or - are we up to 20 yet)?

    Hello from Colorado

    Sounds like maybe you have an obstructed jet, perhaps some kind of crud got sucked in and is blocking most of the fuel flow. Over time enough fuel seeps into the bowl to start it, but as soon as that supply is exhausted, the engine dies. Do you run a fuel filter and if so, has it been changed...

    New from Central West Virginia

    Wow....what a huge difference in appearance it makes just getting those Foose ghetto wheels off it and some black steelies in their place. The cleaned up trim doesn't hurt, but the wheels are very noticeable. There's a fellow with a '66 300 440 doing burnouts, posted on youtube. A lot of...

    New guy with a 68 Fury III

    Welcome aboard and beautiful car! Don't think I've ever seen that particular model before. Our first family Mopar was a '68 Fury III 4 dr with a 318. My dad bought it off the back lot at a local dealer a bit dented up. Road salt eventually destroyed the body, but the engine still ran like new. I...

    New NW member

    Welcome from another newbie, over on the other coast in NC. Looks like a great place to learn and they haven't thrown me off (yet), so they're a pretty tolerant bunch. My guess is that, once you find the time to get after it, you'll be glad you kept the Fury. Neat cars. Still have the big...

    New Member from NC

    Will do, Bob - thanks. Wonder if you bring a vehicle to that little gathering they have at the school in Youngsville in Sept? If so, I may have it somewhere in my photos. Brought the baby to it last year and took a bunch of photos. Saw a 68 New Yorker or 300, late 60s road Runner, mid 60s Fury...

    New Member from NC

    Thanks guys. Really looking forward to getting it here and digging into it. Will definitely keep the group posted on progress. Bob - nope, not with Wake Electric or Duke. Full time Mr Mom now. I figure if I can get through potty training a 2.5 yr old, I'll be able to handle anything the...

    New Member from NC

    Sorry about that! Here are a couple shots of the car. There's a bunch more in the C-Bodies forum. Bob & Wollfen: I'm technically in Franklinton but closer to Wilton. Just a mile or two from the intersections of 56 & 96. I'm not a big fan of clubs due to past experiences with the egos, club...

    New Member from NC

    Greetings - already posted a couple times but figured I should introduce myself here. Just another car nut, or truck nut, or tractors, or...well....at least I'm in good company. Recently purchased a 1966 Chrysler 300 2dr that needs a little TLC so decided to join up. Have read the forum off...
