Need help identifying a rear end size in a 66 fury that I'm considering buying. It's a project car for sure - and the guy selling it doesn't have much info on it. He claims it's a 383 car, but the motor is long gone. On the plus side, the rest of the car looks complete w/ minimal rust. Does anyone know what rear would've came in a 66 fury. It's a fury III if that matters. At least that's what he says it is. There's only a bill of sale which is my only other concern. It looks to be very complete/unmolested from the pics he posted. Well, except for the missing motor. Appreciate any and all input on this. I live in Cal. He says very easy to get a new title. but I don't know if that's true. $2000 is a lot of doe for a car that can't be registered.
 
The wording above looks like a "cut and paste" job.
A Fury 3 most likely would have come with an 8 3/4" axle with either 2.76 or 2.94 gears.
I don't think that they ever came with a Dana 60 and I'm pretty sure that the 1966 models never got a 9 1/4" axle.
 
The title is a much bigger issue than the rear end.
Why are you asking about the rear axle?
 
Since it's not an RB 4 speed car, it would not have the Dana 53 . It would have to be an 8- 3/4.
 
NOTHING is easy at a california dmv!!!.
Make a dmv appointment, ask them FIRST about a title before you do anything regarding the Fury. (I assume it's a non-california car?) Nightmare potentially coming!
And you're considering buying a car not local to you, off of PICTURES?!?
