'59 Plymouth Forum

Yea, prepping cars for storage is always fun. I'll get home and have pretty much an entire month off to work on this car, then every other week or so for a month or 2. So, we'll see what i can get done.

Yea everyone seems really cool and helpful, hopefully i can make it to Carlisle and meet some of the member. I wish i was in Japan haha, just another sandy location. I work private industry i just go where thy tell me :) , couple months to go and then spend some time at home and working on a car i h...

Haha, yea thats the one i am working on getting. I am away for work for a couple months, but the guy has been really helpful with getting the deal done. It's kind of hard to find one of these cars 57-59, that isn't already restored, or restored like Christine. I would have felt terrible taking one o...

So, just doing some more searching, and i noticed the trans buttons don't have a button for PARK. But have a little tab next to the parking brake? So, my question is, the Fury i am looking into getting has a different trans, not sure which one, all i know is that it was rebuilt to handle the high HP...

I may have a list by then haha

i might actually be able to make it this year, first time in like 10 yrs

Either way, nice to know its a little more rare of a car

According to your tag: 1120 - 20th of november 1958 UV is paint code, first code would be roof color and second body color. Yours was Bronze body and palomino beige top. Looks like interior code is 338 which would make sense as that is a copper interior Back then Sport Fury’s were more rare as they...

Ok, ready? Your VIN is M296102184 M- model 1959 2- Plymouth, V8 9- Sport Fury 6- build in Detroit 1- sequential number 02184- 2184th Sport Fury build in Detroit Closest to yours I have in my database are 2029 and 3029. 3029 was build on February 1st 1959 so I guess yours would be a late 58 or early...

Appreciated, i can handle a lot, but have no problem asking for help/info when i enter into uncharted territory

The side trim is totally different. Fury runs front wide at the front to small on the back and it has chrome Fury logos. Sport Fury has small up front and goes wide in the back with medallions on the fins. Fury logos are gold on it. Sport Fury’s are equipped with more options as a standard like the...

For the power brakes, it runs on vacuum from the engine so you need a fitting for the hoses. It should be on the inktake manifold on the rear. The pedal is different too as it goes up higher to make contact with the booster. The plate between the booster and firewall is almost the same, only differ...

Nice!!! It’s even better then you thought cause you have a Sport Fury right there. Do you happen to have pics of the VIN and data plate? I can decode them for you. Send BigM a PM. He has a junkyard with 50’s cars and might be able to help you with good original sheet metal. That way you’ll be done ...

and what is "scope creep"?
