My '66 Fury Sport

The start of our journey

General Information

My neighbor's family bought this car new, his uncle and mother kept it as a "fun car". He "inherited" it a few years ago. He put it in storage for several years, and I always jokingly kept asking him if he was ready to sell it to me.

TO my shock one day at the office he ask if I was really interested in it. He (his wife) was tired of paying storage charges on a car they we not planning on fixing up, and none of their boys were interested in the car.

I jumped on the offer. I paid him for the car (before he changed his wife's mind) and put it on the car hauler, then took it to the shed for storage.

We had 3 people comment on the car as we hauled it down.

I retire next year and this will be one of my favorite projects to start on.

Great story, good looking car, hope she brings years of happiness. Thanks for saving her, enjoy...
 
Looks very solid, good color as well. What engine does it have? I'm guessing a 383?
I've been neglecting her as work has been keeping me busy. She has a 318 2 barrel, not sure if I will bore and stroke it or just rebuild stock.
