1960 Plymouth Fury Not mine

[Dibbons]

For sale in Mexico for about $1,000.00 USD. Second photo is what it may look like if restored some day.

Could you please ship it up here?

I can't imagine the difficulty in restoring something like that.

Scott on his coldwarmotors Youtube site has been doing one of those for a last couple years now....

The amazing thing about that particular project is that the original car was so badly rusted in
the rear parts that he actually spliced two cars together to get one!
I've been watching that channel for over a decade now and aside from all the goofiness the gang
gets into (and Scott's amazing private "junkyard").
The dude is truly gifted in all things body and trim.

I've been following that build. What a great youtube channel too. That fury he's doing is amazing for how bad off it was originally. He is VERY skilled.

And those cars are amazing.....

With very little aftermarket support.

Zero, pretty much. Watching Scott straighten trim, fab every little part, massage every panel - oh, and on
this one he taught himself upholstery!
He actually owns an automotive upholstery sewing machine and taught himself how to do it.
Amazing.

You have to have a 50/50 mix of willpower and insanity to restore a rusty Forward Look car.

I really enjoyed watching Cold War's hack-a-thon on this 60 as I'm similarly hacking two 57 Dodge's together. Major hacking, working outside in the dark and cold.... it's epic stuff.

cost far more than it's worth to restore
maybe even ship
lots of surface rust
wonder what the underside looks like
( too bad I love them 'old boats/land yachts' sorry )
more than it's worth, after doing the resto

needs to be a labor of love deal

Maybe a Petty Tribute car

Amazing.

And he's colorblind.

Optional sky hi rear window and aero steering wheel. Maybe has the sonoramic cross ram too?
I think that roofline was one of the best Mopar ever put out!

Color blind doesn’t mean you don’t see color it just looks different. I’m totally color blind but I can spot paint work a mile away! I see the difference in shades, I can’t always tell what color things are and have said the wrong color on many occasions but I deal with it.. wiring sucks as I have to ask sometimes for help, most folks don’t mind! It takes time to make things right sometimes because of it, you do get used to it..I like it for paint work!

Yes, I understand what colorblind is. Lol. There are many parts on his youtube shows where he mentions getting help from his buddies to make sure things match. I just thought it was interesting.
He also does all the music for his show. Talented guy.

It is very interesting. I’m sure you understood color blind lol! It hard to believe though!
