Vehicle Detail
Your chance to own a unique bit of history. Our church bought this car and modified it to resemble the Bluesmobile for a promotion. We do not have a long history for this car as we only drove it in a few parades and events in our community. It has some rust, ripped/worn seats, keyed door and fender panels. The VIN says this is a 6 cylinder but it has 8 ignition wires so it looks like this has been upgraded to an 8. We added the huge roof speaker and a Cobra CB radio to be able to play music and use as a megaphone in parades.

The Fury was again available as a 2-door hardtop, 2-door convertible, 4-door hardtop, 4-door sedan, and 4-door station wagon. For 1970, the VIP was discontinued and a 4-door hardtop was added to the Sport Fury range, which also gained a new hardtop coupe. This was available in "GT" trim; 1970–71 Sport Fury GT models were powered by the 440 cu in (7.2 L) engine, which in 1970 could be ordered "6-barrel" carburetion consisting of three 2-barrel carburetors.The 1969 models included the fleet-intended Fury I, volume models Fury II and Fury III, the sport-model Sport Fury and the top-line VIP. The 225 cubic-inch six-cylinder engine continued as standard on the Fury I, II and select III models, with the 318 cubic-inch V8 standard on the Sport Fury, some Fury III models and all VIP models plus the station wagon; a three-speed manual transmission was standard, with the TorqueFlite automatic transmission optional. The six-cylinder engine/three-speed manual transmission power team – along with the three-speed manual transmission on the 318 cubic-inch V8 – continued to be available until midway through the 1971 model year, after which all full-sized Plymouths were built with a V8 engine and automatic transmission.For 1970, the VIP was dropped, with the Sport Fury line expanded to include a four-door hardtop sedan. An optional Brougham package, which included individually-adjustable split bench seats with passenger recliner and luxurious trim comparable to the former VIP series, was available on Sport Furys; a Sport Fury GT and S/23 models. The S/23 was dropped for 1971, with new options including an electric sunroof (for top-line models) and a stereo tape player with a microphone, making it possible to record off the radio or take dictation.On Sep-21-15 at 19:47:35 PDT, seller added the following information: REVISION: I mis-read the VIN. The C is a G. See the new photo. Now it all makes sense. It is the original G - 318 1-2BBL 8 Cylinder "LA" engine On Sep-22-15 at 21:00:05 PDT, seller added the following information: I hadn't run the car yet since the battery was not fully charged. I jumped it and it fired right up. I just took it out today and "drag raced" through the church parking lot. It ran fine, even chirped the tires. A bit of a tick-tick sound when I started it. After driving it was smoother. I made a video of the engine running on fast idle and will try to upload. youtu.be/rC8aXyzSAkU There was a bit of white smoke in the left tail pipe but we haven't run the car in 6 months. New photos uploaded.
