hi all, if you are a Pusser fan and Mopar fan then this is may be of interest. Note: I see this post as history, so I do not mean any disrespect to Mrs. Pusser (Pauline) who did not make it, but instead a celebration of a hero who was not afraid to take on the bad guys and vindicate h is wife's tragic
murder
The Fury I after the Ambush- I heard the same story that it was cleaned up and put back into service- I found that (disturbing) because of the tender nature of Buford Pusser- did not make sense. I knew the TBI held the car until October 1968- So it sit in the hot sun baking all that flesh and blood for a year. Jack Coffman seen Buford with the car at his house taking out the 8-Track tape player and asked Jack if he wanted it. Jack, really did not want it but did not want to h...urt Buford's feeling by not taking it. So, he got a paper bag out of the kitchen of Buford's house and put the blood cover tape player in it. When he got home he put the bag in his garage and forgot it. He said the car rank of the smell of death- and Buford sold the car. The Fury I belong to Buford not the Sheriff's Department, The last photograph on the right was taken in 1968- An individual who's father work for the car dealership said people took pictures of the car all the time. I tend to believe this story made more sense- about what happened to the car. When the museum opened Jack dug out that 8 track player and cleaned the dry blood and brain matter off it and donated to the museum. This is how that part of a deadly day ended up in the museum.
