This is my 1968 Fury III 2 Door Hard Top. It came factory with the Super Cammando 383 hp motor. This means it came with dual exhaust and a 4 Barrel Carter AVS carb. I picked it up in March of 2008....call it a birthday gift to myself for my 40th. Didn't run and was full for mice.......i mean FULL!!!! Everywhere.....dash, seats, headliner, trunk, and even exhaust!
I began by stripping the interior and heating cooling system out of the car. I didn't want to garage it for the winter until I knew all the rodents were evacuated. The car had been sitting in a field in Kansas for over 15 years. In stripping the interior I found the build sheet under the back seat, even though it was half eaten by mice it's kinda neat finding that. I also wire brushed the interior floor and applied a product called Rust Bullet on it to prevent any other rust from forming. After that I put a sound deadning material called Fat Mat on.
I got an interior seat cover kit from Legendary Auto Interiors and carpet kit and headliner as well. It's coming together ok. I also had to dismantle the entire dash and pull the heater box and get a new heater core, new ducts, and other misc parts. Those rodents were everywhere I tell you!
I did finally get the beasty 383 Super Cammando fired. Wow.....it actually runs!!!!!!
It's now in the garage a little warmer to work inside than outside in Colorado.
