i picked up a 65 sport fury recently.
its a 383-4-auto car,and it was in a bad way.
car had 39k original miles and was hit in side,
then had unknown entity attempt their first bondo job ever,
with moon craters now on the side of the car.
last inspection was 93 out of NJ,and its a NJ build car.
this car sat outside on a main street,nobody wanted it,it was there all winter long.
prior owner had taken most of it apart...with? gusto but not much smarts.
i said no to this car Twice before Really looking at it,under it,
at the tarp covered motor,and then buying it.
turns out somewheres along the way this car got a 440 transplant,win for me.
wont mention the frozen carb that shot fuel out only one nozzle,
or the points that were fused together.
ive managed to piece it somewhat back together,still working on interior assembly.
im trying to figure out if this car is rare,not that its worth anything,but...
the colors Seem? to be triple turquoise /exterior-top,bottom/interior-everything/carpeting.
theres no dashpad,no holes for a dashpad,and its fact paint as well?
is that any kind of unusual?
at first,i thought the car was turd green ugly,because its faded to death,
and then i washed it and could see the paint shine.
kinda hooked on it now.
would like to know the place to buy some of this paint,
and how much id need to redo the whole car.
LL1 on fender tag?
as far as right away stuff,i have No Hood,didnt come with one.
willing to drive to get one,if anyone has it.
im in western ny state,near rochestor,.
i also need outside trim,specifically the d-side and p-side Door trim/Spears
a used w no dents please front bumper,a lower qtr patch panel for pass side rear
and a huge patch panel for the drivers side qtr from the door to the rear of the car.
ill post pics tomm,of this latest pile.
any help would be awesome,and hey,
the guy i got this from has a 65 sport fury 383 4 speed numbers matching car needing bodywork for sale too.
if thats anything yall would be interested in,lmk.
heres the cars as found.
