Have owned many C-bodies over the years, some mundane and some rare and unusual.

The rarest C's I've had were the convertibles, I had 3 back in the 90's. One was a fire engine red / white top 1968 Newport with original 440 TNT and very unusual options. Another was a 1968 Imperial that was highly optioned. Last was a 1967 Sport Fury. They were all clean rust free #3 type driving cars & I decided to do a full high end resto on one of them & sell the other 2 cars. The Imperial would be the most difficult due to its's complexity & hard to find parts so I ruled that out. I chose the Fury as it was a holy grail car with all hipo options- 440HP, 4-speed, Budd discs, Dana 53, & H/D suspension. Here it is on a nice day last summer.Welcome…………...how rare...?
Any pix would be nice.

I would believe you have been to Chrysler's @ Carlisle, and, if not !!!!!, You MUST go to the # 1 MOPAR event in the world.
Thanks much! Really like the wagon & rag in your garage! Like your stepdad I was probably influenced young, my dad had 3 company C's on 2 year leases way back when, this is yours truly with my sister in 1969. Yes I'm an old fart!Hello and Welcome to the site from Connecticut!. absolutely jaw dropping, and superb looking Sport Fury . I love it, and great choice on restoring it . Check out my photo garage as there is a '67 Sport Fury convertible there as well , but this one is a 383 HI-PO with a TorqueFlite automatic
Wasn't her, can't recall exactly but I was often up to no good. Believe it was from going through a plate glass window which I still have scars from.Hi from Chilton, Wi Did your sister kick you in the right shin, hence the bandage?
