I can't believe I just found this site today. Too bad my first post is to advertise my car. Thanks for reading... Here it is.
1965 Plymouth Sport Fury convertible. "Numbers matching" 383 Commando V8 and original A833 4 speed transmission with original Hurst Competition Plus shifter and ball. About 8000 miles on restoration. Engine is bored to 392, has a Holley 4 bbl, Weiand Action plus intake and has lightweight pistons. New performance cam, lifters, springs, push rods, harmonic balancer, plugs, Mallory e coil (for the HEI ignition), and wheels 3000 km ago. K&N air filter and M/T polished aluminum valve covers. I also just replaced the driveshaft less than 300 miles ago (Driveshaft Specialist San Antonio, Texas). New lower ball joints and tie rod ends too. Has electric fuel pump as well. Compression is pretty good at about 155 across all 8 and has about 45 psi oil pressure hot idle and 55 on the hi way. The tires are Goodyear F1 run flats. They are over 400 bucks each to replace. 245-ZR-40-17 front and 275-ZR-40-18 in the rear. The rear end is the original one as well. 3.23 Sure Grip. 1 extra rear leaf was added when the springs were replaced. The exhaust is 2.5" dual Borla Hemi mufflers with H pipe. I also installed an AEM AFR gauge to monitor fuel ratios. 10 gallon fuel cell in the trunk. Pioneer stereo with 500 watts of power. It still could use some more detailing. Door panels aren't awesome. They're driver quality, but not show. Steering box needs a seal, driver side exhaust gasket needs to be replaced, and window felts need to be replaced. Chrome is pretty good original. The car is very reliable. We took it on a 3000 km trip this summer and it ran great. 19 mpg. Pretty much the whole history of the car is known. In case you're wondering, the paint is custom black base with pearl clear that goes from black to copper to purple depending on the way the sun hits it. A real head turner. I'm sure I forgot lots but good enough for now.
This car is very rare. It is 1 of 13 Canadian built black commando v8 4 speed convertibles cars made in 1965. It was appraised at $28,000.00 before the $4000.00 dollars was spent on it this summer. Smokin hot car, but I want back into an E body. It's a steal at my asking price of $18,000.
