68-69 and either as 2dr hts and convertibles. Guessing about a few hundred as maximum per each year would not be too far off, though these were not as well documented as SFGTs or 300 Hursts, so practically any is only a better or worse guestimate.

I’ve only seen numbers for the ‘68’s. 965 2dr fasttops and 175 convertibles. They made their debut at the 68 Chicago Auto Show (January or February) so a late entry, and mine was probably one of the last ones built in July 1968. It was a sales bank order by the dealer and did not sell until January of 1969...

Offered in 69 also but numbers are probably less, have seen a handful of pics online but not as many as 68.

Thank you! That "high" production number surprised me. :wideyed: I'd better stick on Imps, it seems.:D

Is it just me, or is the Fury shorter(wheelbase) than the other C’s?

Plymouth Fury*: 119``
Dodge Polara/Monaco: 121``
Chrysler: 124´´
Imperial: 129`` 57-66, 127`` 67-end

* Every wagon not regarding the brand was built on the same 121`` wheelbase.

If you're referring to mine, thanks! I bought it off Craigslist in 2013. It had been parked since the mid-90s but the previous owner got it running well enough before selling it that I could drive it the 80 miles home (was a bit sketchy). I've been slowly getting things sorted out but it's slow going.
