68 Fury III Resurrection in MA

[RGORHAM29]

Just finished reading the whole thread, what a great looking car and exciting project! Congratulations on saving this Fury... now I need an update!!!

Thanks - slow go. That’s a lesson learned. Take the time to enjoy it, prioritize everything family and the things that need to get done around the house, and everyone stays happy. LOL.

Fireplace project underway getting ready for a new fireplace insert. Covid struck the household at the same time. So far …projects on hold for a couple of weeks. In the meantime, car is ready to swap frames. Hopefully a warm weekend (above 32) will come by and I can pull things out to make room and make a swap. Stay tuned.

BTW - welcome to FCBO From Milford. Lot of great information, resources, insight and projects here. A lot of opinion too, but that’s part of learning.

Finally…. Stars aligned, no client calls, no “hey dad can you take me to…”, and a few hours of some classic rock on the radio.. and the engine come out of the 68 Fury III. Will strip it of accessories and deliver to a local machine shop for some TLC.

Next will also have the tranny looked at and also be swapping the stub frame. A refurbished one with a new suspension is ready and waiting in the shed.

Meantime.. will clean and tag parts removed and re-organize my tools so I can jump in again.

Happy Independence Day!
