Cover Cars FF ury Fifty-six ifty-six Allen Faltus, Ellensburg, Washington ashington The engine in Allen’s Fury has the optional 2x4 setup which raises the 303-cubic-inch motor’s horsepower from 240 to 270. The motor has the correct air cleaners, which are the same as used on ‘56 Corvettes. This was a dealer-installed option. There was a factoryinstalled setup, as well, on what is popularly known as the Grand National option. This latter option used an aluminum intake, and both four-barrel carburetors were covered with one huge air cleaner with paper element. The factory option is extremely rare and went predominantly to the NASCAR drivers. -- Jack Lewis Larry Gammon, Calgary, Calgary, Alberta Larry Gammon finished his ‘56 in late 2005 and early 2006. Many of our restorers leave the Turbine Cap wheel covers behind and go to copies of the Chrysler wires that were used on ‘56 300B and Imperials. They are not factory-original but sure could have been ordered from a dealer at the time. Larry's air cleaner for the single four-barrel is correct, but the lettering is not “factory” for a Fury air cleaner (factory-correct for the Belvedere/Savoy 277 power pack option is white on red air cleaners). Larry's interior is gorgeous, though inserts are SMS-supplied fabric which is close but not correct. SMS, as of about two years ago, is now reproducing the correct fabric. No one could get it before then. -- Jack Lewis -43- Editor’s note: The third segment of the Hall family ‘54 <strong>Plymouth</strong> story will appear in the next issue.
