Lads -- As you might expect, the viscous drive fan on the 426S on my '65 Sport Fury is gone, and probably long gone. Not that I want to have a "concours" car, but the spacer between the water pump and the fan makes it obvious that the mill is missing something under the hood. I've been able to...

Lads -- I understand that the reason for the increased cost of the 426S with 4-speed trans ($515) versus the TorqueFlite ($483) on the '65 Sport Fury (and possibly on all other Furys as well) is because the cars were "originally assembled with automatics" and had to be "retrofitted" to...

Lads -- I was able to get some new seat belts for my '65 Sport Fury, but they didn't come with the sleeve that they retract into. The belts themselves are very good but when they retract they get almost out of reach behind the seat. Anyone have an idea where I can get the complete assembly...

Back in 1964, when I ordered my 1965 SF with the 426-S, I seem to remember that there was a special package that came with it, such as oversize tires, brakes, suspension, etc. Can anybody fill me in on these or direct me to a link or site where I could find more info. Joe

Lads --- After a LONG winter, I got into "Big Red" (my '65 Sport Fury with the 426-S) and drove it down to a local cruise-in. It was such a nice morning and I really enjoyed just leisurely driving around. Since Big Red has a 4-speed, I had great fun banging the gears and an even greater...

Lads -- A few years ago, I bought my '65 Sport Fury from the heir of its last owner. During this corona virus shut-down with time on my hands, I went through all the stuff that came with the car when it was shipped to me. The last owner was really doing a good job of restoring it and...

Lads -- The gear shift boot for the 4-speed on my '65 Sport Fury needs to be replaced as do the brake and clutch pedals. Some time ago I was able across some replacement pedals, ones without the steel bezels around the edges, but I can't seem able to find any kind whatsoever now. I suppose I...

Lads -- I was digging through some old photos and came across this pic (the top one) of my girl friend, me, and my '65 Sport Fury in the spring of 1966 (I think). The second is of its virtual twin '65 we acquired 50 years later. The "WE" is rather significant as that "girl friend" has been my...

Lads -- On Sunday, May 20, I took my '65 Sport Fury to a car show in Florence, Colorado, which is a small town about 45 miles southwest of Colorado Springs. They had some 400-450 cars there and one of the attractions was Dennis Gage, the mustached host of "My Classic Car." As he was cruising...
