Survivors 1967 Fury Fury IIIs by John Reddie Cohasset, Massachusetts Ihave had my 1967 Plymouth Fury III convertible since July, 1973. Up until June 2000, it was the only car that I used daily. At that time, the body had so succumbed to the many New England winters that I had to stop using it for two years while I repaired the body (see BULLETIN 271). After the body repair was completed, I used it until August of 2005 when I had a tragic fire that destroyed the entire interior (BULLETIN 290). I was fortunate enough to bring it back and get it roadworthy and it is now used all the time except in bad weather. I am pleased to say that in May 2010, the car turned over 600,000 miles. When I purchased it, it had just over 72,000 miles. Is it a survivor? Well, that depends on how one interprets the term “survivor.” If it means that the car has all of the original pieces that it had when new, than it is not. With that said, though, I will say this: It has survived almost 44 years of use plus a devastating fire. It has had three engines, the present one being a 1976 Plymouth 318. Other than that, all of the parts that I have replaced are for a ‘67 Fury. I am so glad that I am still able to use this car. I am retired now, and there is nothing like lowering the top and taking a cruise on a nice warm summer day. My other driver car is a 1967 Plymouth Fury III four-door hard- 600,000 miles -19- top. It is pretty much original with the points ignition. This car has over 200,000 miles and so far runs fine. It is great to receive a new PLYMOUTH BULLETIN in the mail. Thanks, and enjoy those old Plymouths. PB
