 NEW UPDATE: Oct/30/09 please read

Well I'll start it off like this, 1968 Plymouth Sport Fury convertible 383 super commando 4bbl and a torque flight 8 automatic transmission. As of now it is being rebuilt from ground up but is currently all stock (original). I just updated this the day after Thanksgiving 11/29/08. I find Cardomain.com a nice place to post things on my car because I'm sure there's somebody outhere who can provide me with information and I can do so as well. I've been doing a lot of research on the "sport fury" models and most are never convertible! If there are any questions please Email me at cry_wolf89@yahoo.com and I would greatly appreciate it. -thanks, James

 Updates:

UPDATE Jul/17/09: by mid august of 09 I will be up where the plymouth is and get back to work on it. as of now alot of progress has been made, here's what it now has. rebuilt motor all dressed up looking nice, all new drums, new wheels & tires. Now she's mobile, but when I get up there I plan on doing alot more such as putting a nice exhaust on, paint and cleaning out the bottom and have suspension done. till now thats all i can think of i'll have some pics here shortly.

 UPDATE Oct/30/09: last week I visited and took some pictures of the rebuilt motor and the new wheels. Next to work on is interior and ragtop. New Cragar 15x8's wrapped around with Fuzion HRI street tires. Rebuilt motor with all new bearings, rods, pistons, lifters. new readiator, hoses, fuel pump, alternator etc.......

Some of the polishing work I did with the bumpers, trim, and wheels. Those are the original wheels and tires and are going to be upgraded with 15x8 cragar s/s rims and Fuzion HRI tires.
