Matthew brings up an interesting point: the owner of what was formerly Ron Swartley’s SF (https://59plymouth.net/showcase/swartley.html) is not known. Although Arnold Poteet’s SF is now owned by Jack Bitterman (https://59plymouth.net/showcase/bitterman.html), we still don’t know who owns what used to be Russ Housen’s Fire Chief Wagon (https://59plymouth.net/showcase/housenII.html). Anybody know the whereabouts of these cars? Did I miss any others in the Showcase?

Dan,
I just found this again. A great ufo but is this a Belvedere or a Custom or both???
By the look of the taillight housings, this appears to have been a Suburban
Wow, that’s a good find roger!
hEY, ITS NOT MINE, i WAS JUST TRYING TO IDENTIFY IT!
I know 
I must say Roger, you’ve got an eye for details!
Here’s another new UFO. From Sweden or something?
Here is a link with more pics from MORE 59 Plymouth 2dr and 4dr’s!
It also has 3 other pics of Mike Kotzman’s Belvedere
and here’s another swedisch UFO

I found the picture in Power Big meet, Vasteras Sweden.
Since that pic doesn’t work here they are:
Rare place for the sport deck!
Good eyes, you guys! Also, a bad taillight… 8^)
Hmmm… My browser’s not showing the pix. I’ve uploaded them to our site, so we can display from here…
That’s not the one I meant.. check my last post, I’ve updated it.
I just found this at Jim Haprian’s site. Looks like this Fury was tranformed in a Conv. Or a Belvy Conv was tranformed to a Fury Conv!
I don’t keep track of such things, but George Dalinis of Illinois told a story to WPC magazine some years ago..he built a black Fury convertible. If I remember correctly, it is a Belvedere convertible trimmed as a Fury. I think he hauled the cvt out of a salvage yard, estored it, and chose to dress it as a Fury, knowing that Fury wasnt available as a cvt in 59.
yes the “guest” is me..I consistently forget to check whether I am logged in or not…I have to re-log in each time I re-boot the computer, but i always forget about it
And here is Jim Ashworth with his 1959 “Richard Petty” Savoy

I found 1 more. Also found a promo picture and a For sale one in Sweden I think: http://hem.passagen.se/notaro/sales/plymouthFury.htm
Great stuff, Matthew! That '59 in front of the “Chrysler Engineering” arch is a turbo, based on the name assigned to it…
Dan
When you are looking good you can see some details about it. It’s different like the normal 59’s. There are just some minor things.
Notice it doesn’t have the “Plymouth” logo on the hood, other hubcaps and it looks like the front valance was painted in the same colour as the body
