Some of you already knew my Fury had found his way home as it is in our garage now.
As seeing the progress of my dad’s Sport Fury it was time to make a start with the Fury.
I go some tools at the hardware store and gave it my best shot as I want to do as much as I can myself on this car.
I see it as a learning project after work.
Yes, it is a 59 Fury!
It also got it’s Fury logo back for a few minutes
Still working
The results for today, primed to prevent for new rust
Well, it has been ? two years ? since you bought this car, and hauled it out of a underground garage..You had someone do some metal wrok on it then, correct? (I should probably find your posts in the Archives). I don’t remember it looking quite this “distressed”.
ANyway, you are back at it once again. Starting out is always slow-
keep us informed..

Made a little bit of progress today, a friend visited me so more talking than working.
I’ve got the whole weekend to work on the Fury. Plan is to get the lower parts done and in the length of the fin.
Okay, Matthew.
It would help me understand your project better if I could review the pictures from three years ago when you bought it. Where can I find those pictures?
Roger, all the pics can be found in the showcase on the homepage!
John, I used it but the paint strippers we can get aren’t the best and they only do the paint. I wanna get rid of everything as I found a pretty good layer of bondo on the lower part of the body.
Some more pics of today, the Fury found a new parking spot in the back of the garage
More metal
Even more!
Looks like it’s a racing car
The car had to have this number
What are you attempting to do here? Do not remove paint with a grinder! this is rule no1!
Please use paint stripper its much better for the car, if you want to sand the paint off use a RANDOM ORBITAL SANDER …
Work a pannel at a time so the overall job does not get too daunting ok, do not remove rotten metal before forming a new piece up first or repacement is found. Ok matthew?
Matthew, Any more pictures of your progress on your Fury? I was just reviewing what you had done in February of this year but noticed no new posts since then.
Are you in need of any parts for your car that your Dad doesn’t have extra’s of? We all have stashes of parts we can donate to a worthy cause… You!
I second that! In fact, I have two emergency brake cables for you, Matthew – you can get the car on the road without worrying first about the wheel brakes!
No updates yet! I’ve worked on my dads car and some rims for my daily driver.
There is still a lot to do!
I don’t know about the parts, my dad is using a lot from this one now
Maybe a new trunk floor? the one in it is useless, doesn’t look very good
