During the 1962-64 run, Plymouth’s full-size cars weren’t really full-size when compared against the Chevrolet Impala or Ford Galaxie. That’s because some bad intel supposedly told them they should downsize because that’s what Chevy was going to do. Well, the intel was wrong. In 1965, the cars moved from the mid-size B-body to the full-size C-body, and things were on an even keel once again. The seller has an original 1967 Fury III, which looks almost new because it only has 67,000 miles. Located in Millersburg, Ohio, this beauty is available here on eBay without reserve when the current bid is $4,200.
A potpourri of full-size Plymouths was offered in 1967, lining up model for model with Chevy and Ford. They included the Fury I, Fury II, Fury III, Sport Fury, and VIP (Very Important Plymouth). The styling was refreshed and featured more angles and curves. Stacked headlights appeared for the third year in a row. Slant Six engines were still standard across most lines, but 318 and 383 cubic inch V8s were more commonplace.
Nearly 300,000 Fury’s were produced in 1967, including 52,000 Fury III 4-door sedans like this one. Most people don’t get excited these days about family sedans from the 1960s, but this one seems as nice as they get. The seller doesn’t say a lot about the car, but does use the word “original” twice. That tells me the body, paint, and interior are from the factory, and we assume the drivetrain is numbers-matching.
The seller provides lots of photos, but not one shows us which engine is in this car. Or does he/she say what it is either. The mag wheels are not stock, and we’re not told if the original steel rims and wheel covers are still around and come with the car. He/she does say the Plymouth purrs like a kitten, so we assume it needs nothing but a new home. The seller would prefer someone to bid $29,900 for the car, but we’re nowhere near close to that, and the highest bidder will win.
Barnfinds, why do you insist on dumping this pointless pop-up on me (and I am sure others) as I scroll your site? Especially with the choices you offer: Either YES or NOT NOW. Are you thinking that I after bombarding me with this daily, I am suddenly going to say, “Yes, now I am ready. Send me those alerts”?
Yeah, they throw the word original around a lot. I don’t think those wheels are original. What size engine is it the 6, 318, or 383 who knows?
This likely has a six cylinder. The clutch pedal and column shifter says “base model” to me. $30k likely wouldn’t happen unless it was a V8, but the seller won’t tell us what it is.
From the side shot, it looks like an overgrown Valiant to me. How ’bout y’all?
Yeah this is an oddly optioned car, or maybe I should say no options. I see three pedals so it’s a manual transmission, crank windows, no AC. I know cars back then didn’t often have air but this is a next to top of the line Fury. That and four doors make this Grandpa’s car. Probably a six cylinder to boot.
You can have the car. I’ll take the garage it’s parked in.
definitely a v8 those duals make that known. clean as a pin but those wheels don’t go with the look of this crew cab. 7 days left curious to see where it lands
Dad had a maroon one like this. Great car with 318 engine and automatic transmission. The seat inserts are made of a silken like fabric. At night, with domelight on, the seats have a beautiful sheen, very plush looking for a Plymouth. Also, the dash is floodlit with blue green lights, making a great visual experience. All in all, this gold Plymouth is a very nice example.
First off, what is it with people who feel they have to put friggin’ Cragers or mag wheels on every car they own??? It’s a 4dr sedan for Pete’s sake! It looks ridiculous.
Now that I got that out of the way, beautiful looking Fury. The 67′-68’s are probably my favorite years for them. Looks rather sparse options wise and the seller really doesn’t provide much info on the car. I’m assuming it’s an 8 considering the duel exhaust. Probably a 318 or 383 engine. Showing the engine plus the trunk area and especially the underside would be a big plus considering the car’s in Ohio.
Overall it looks like a really beautiful original car though. Considering the seller states; “If someone asked me how much I want for her we would price her at 29,900”. Guess it’s a good thing it’s a no reserve auction because I wouldn’t see that price happening for this car even as nice as it is.
