72 Fury State Police car in Wyo. May be Ex Colo. State patrol.

[1966 fury I]

Not mine but found this on Denver craigslist. Looks like Cop suspension, Cop wheels, Cop tires, Cop speedo Etc........? for anyone interested. http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/3747385529.html Looks solid.

Of course they come out of the woodwork after you buy one, haha. This interior does not match mine though. I don't have a fold down arm rest or the more fancy door panels. Nice find.

But is it the real thing?



From another Ford guy

 

[Mr C]

Sure looks like the real thing (steering wheel etc..) again the VIN and data plaque will tell all.

 

[polara71]

Obviously the VIN should tell the story.... His wording sounds like it could not be

I'm sure you're right.

and many other parts from a police interceptor including brakes, springs, alternator, speedometer,

 

[mdh157]

well, if it is, eng cannot be orig........had to be a 440, not a 383

i think he was making one out of a reg fury

 

[polara71]

Why does it have to be a 440? They did police cars in 383's too

 

[J-MacsMopars]

383's weren't available in 72, they went to the 400

 

[polara71]

Ooops, you're right what was I thinking.......

I've seen plenty of 71 383 police package cars.. I wasnt even thinking about the year.

 

[1978 NYB]

So it could be a 400 cop car.

Remember the movie "Dumb and Dumber"?

Jim Carey: "So what are my chances of dating you".
Chick: "One in a million".

Jim Carey: "YES! I still have a chance".

LOL. As mentioned earlier, if you read between the lines, it's a civilian car with cop parts. The interior is wrong, unless someone changed that as well. Carpet, door panels and front seat. No spot light or the hole also. But yes, there's still a chance.

His glass is always half full, I wish I had that spirit.

NYC had slant6's in their RMPs.

Most of the Louisville Police dept cars had smaller v8 engines. Actually they only had (4) 440 Polaras for radar cars in the early 70's. The motor mounts broke routinely on them. A chain was improvised to prevent it from happening after a few times.
