    To the owners of both of these cars: It is GREAT to see these machines out on the highway ~ thank you! Yes, it is nice to look at them close up at a show, but to see them in action on the interstate is mezmorizing and a special treat for fellow motorists. Drivers in their hybrid-techo-buckets are thinking twice about what they are in when they see these cars.

    1958 Plymouth... That was when American car companies were at its PEAK in creation, safety and distinction. Late 50s and early early 1960s styling. Look at the beautiful lines of that Plymouth going down the highway. That's when they made real cars. Right there. Those are real cars. Real iron!! Note the duals, I bet those sure sound great out of that 318.

  • @1956MercM260

    @SpinMaster08 '58 Fury was also available with a 350 CID version of the "B" series wedge V8 (related to 361 and 383 CID "B" V8s). With dual quads, the 350 CID was rated at 305 HP (compared to 290 HP for the dual quad/hot cam 318 V8).

    That was 2008.
    The 59 Had a low compression Chrysler 400 Engine but had a hot
    cam and "Freeway Gears" (276) so it didn't have a "Lotta Trouble"
    with Christine, alto She runs very nicely with the 318 and dual Fours
    and a hot cam.
    The 59 Dodge now "Sports" a built 440 acutally 446 CI, aluminum heads,
    Dual Fours, 9.8 to 1 Compression,--- etc etc. It dynoed out at 476 HP and 530 FtLb or Torque, all on 87 Octane gas,
    Both cars are fun to drive and fun to ride in.

    I'm sorry but you're mistaken. Christine was a Fury. In the movie adaption of the novel they sometimes used stunt double Belvedere's which is why some people were mistaken. If you read Stephen king novels (like I do) you'd know that christine was indeed a '58 Fury.

  • @Wankachocho
    @Wankachocho 14 років тому

    @SpinMaster08 actually you could get a 350ci commando engine in the belvedere or the fury, and being that it was a "Christine" clone its hard to say which car was used to actually make it there was like three models that works for it ... a savoy, the fury and the belvedere I believe.

    I removed the AC, pulleys etc, when I had the new engine installed. Even had the compressor rebuilt, but since the top is almost always down, I never used the AC. I have it stored away in my garage in a safe place.
    I do a lot of parades with the car, where I may be going 3 to 5 mph, and while the old 400 engine didn't mind that, I suspects the 440 might put up a fuss, so just didnt want to take a chance, and so far the parades, I've been in, I have not had any heating problems .

I am the new owner of the Belvedere that was once owned by Mike Sutherland. I saw both of your names on The forward look site. My user name is Plymouth Twins. My twin brother and I own it together. Are you a California native? I live in Los Angeles (Los Feliz). Can't wait to drive it, I have a bad transmission leak.
