On "My Car Story" we're at the Carlisle Events in Carlisle PA on 7-13-18.
We're looking at a 1970 Plymouth Sport Fury GT in Jamaica Blue Metallic Paint. The car comes with the factory 440 CI engine.
The car's Owner is Dave Wheeler. Dave’s had this car since 1986. He shares he took his driving test in a Plymouth Fury, so that makes this car special, and he also saved this one from the wrecking crew.

One of the most menacing looking cars ever built! Awesome!
Happy to read this car is "Awesome!" :-)
Just amazing to think this once sat in a Buffalo junkyard. Got to hand it to people who rescue old cars from junkyards and outdoor hoarders.
Hi JackF, Happy to read you enjoy the results of this almost wrecked car :-) Lou
Now that I'm in my 40s I really dig these land yachts! Glad he saved it from the crusher!
Hi MBailey1977, Happy to read you appreciate this car :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing. Lou
@ 6:25 on the VIN tag position 5 there is the letter V. That is the engine code for 440 3X2. It is a very rare car indeed.
Thank you Mark G for sharing your knowledge.
Lou, this car is in the background of your Nov. 2016 video on a white 1970 Fury GT. I noticed the tag.
I too took my driving test in a Mopar. It was a 1970 Newport 2 door in black with gold interior, 8 track and air. The DMV tester failed me for not getting the parallel parking perfect. Devastated, I later found out the jerk flunks all kids at 16. He apparently didn't feel we were experienced enough. I did go back 2 weeks later and passed. That car was amazingly fast and fun to race down the streets!

1 of 64 made.Very rare car. I don't think Dave will ever sell it.
Hi john dillinger, Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
If he does. I want dibs. I want a unicorn.
Wasn't there a guy with 2 or 3 wrecked 4406 that passed away? Were those saved?
And they were going to crush it?????
@@cynic247 Thank God he saved its absolute gorgeous car I would cut my pinky finger off for it or i at least give it serious thought .
Cool. In 1977 my older brother came home with a flat black Fury and left a positraction burnout on dad's new driveway.
Hi Mr. Fruity Pebbles, I'm sure your Brother was proud until Dad saw the results :-) Lou
Lovely land yacht,don't see nearly enough of them,especially with a 440 6 bbl. weeeeee! ☆☆☆
Hi my name is 905, All aboard! :-)
Dad had a 70 Fury I w/ a 318. Nothing like this car, of course. Seeing that dash brought back so many memories. I learned to drive in that car. Can't imagine driving anything so big again. It was 17 Ft. long. IT WAS HUGE INSIDE!

Dave Wells, Fantastic job on what had to be a very difficult restoration! And for saving a car at a time that nobody else would have. Thanks Lou for the feature of special Mopar you're not going to see anywhere else..........
Hi Steve Weiman, Glad you enjoy this car :-) You're welcome, Lou
I got to admit this is the first time that I’ve seen this Model What a nice Mopar.👍
Hi Daniel, Happy to share this car with you :-) Glad to read you enjoy this model, Lou
My dad had a 70 Plymouth Sport Satellite this brings back memories especially the rims and the center console. His had dual exhaust and a 383. Almost 50 years later it is still one of my favorite cars. And this car is fantastic! Thanks.

My grandpa had a 58 and a 66 sport Fury. I remember the 66 and damn it was KOOL.
Hi Seth Thomas, Thank you for viewing and sharing Grandpa's "KOOL" Fury's :-) Lou
66 Fury was bad a**.
I love all early furys and that 70? Man thats sharp.
Leave it to lou to pick out the awesome mopars
Nice car (great plate too) - very straight and clean. Super rare and sounds great. Thanks Lou !
HI Jeff King, Glad you enjoy this rare one and all the details :-) You're welcome, Lou
This is one of my favourite cars that you’ve toured. That offset trunk lock, tilt/ rim-blow, quad exhaust are just a few of the details that are just so right.
Hi bdb studio, Happy to read this one is a favorite of yours :-) Lou
The 70 model also came with what they called the 90% power steering. Some said it allowed over steering but i never had a problem with it. This is still my dream car today. I regret ever trading mine in for a new car.
Hi Ron, Thank you for sharing your 1st hand knowledge. Happy to read "This is still my dream car today" :-) Lou
One of the most beautiful cars I've seen in a while.

Wow a super restoration of the Plymouth fury GT! Love the blue color and the engine sound! He has a awesome GT! I bet that is a quick one too! Very very nice car and thanks to the owner for saving it! Thanks for sharing this with us Lou!
Hi Steve Flad, Always happy to read a "Wow" in the comment :-) You're welcome, Lou
I'd love to see the before and during resto pics.. The result is fabulous!
That B7 BLUE WAS A GREAT COLOR. It looked great on the 70 RT/SE Charger 440. Mine is B7 and.i get more questions on the color.
Ive had it repainted 3 times.
It runs a 1/4 at a time. 53 yrs old and had since 16 yrs old.
My grandfather bought it from Grand Spaulding Dodge where i later worked!!
Miss them days
I'm a huge Mopar fan and I had no idea any Sport Fury GT's came from the factory with the 440 Six Barrel. I think I just found my new favorite full size muscle car LoL
Hi Jeremy Thompson, Happy you found your new "full size" and hope you're behind the wheel of one like this soon, Lou
Nice Sport Fury. Oh these old Dodges and Plymouths bring back memories. I would ride my bicycle over to the nearest Chrysler-Plymouth dealership and peer into the windows of every vehicle, and read the sheets in the windows. I'm sure they wondered why there were fingerprints and noseprints on the windows! 😄 The blue Dodge Charger behind Dave's car is so beautiful too. Thank you Lou!
Hi Mike YQR, Happy to read this car brings back memories at the Dealerships :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Awesome car. I owned a 1968 Sport Fury III convertible and it was glorious i miss that. This 70 Fury GT is a truly rare and beautiful machine.
Hi Lewis Yoder, Glad to read you enjoy this car and consider it "awesome" :-) Sounds you you enjoyed your 1968 too. Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
My first car in 1995 was a army jeep green 71 Fury 3 two door hardtop 318. My elderly great uncle still has a red/white top 68 Sport Fury 383 with white interior.
Hi DFOOSKING, Sounds like great memories in your and your Great Uncle's cars :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
If Mopar was to make these again, their doors would be flooded with buyers. Me being right there too. Love these cars. Very comfortable with speed. Thanks Lou and to the guy who shows it. Outstanding.
Hi Craig, Happy to read you enjoy this car :-) My pleasure sharing with you, and you're welcome, Lou
In 1990, at age 17, my first car was 20 years old! Older than me, but fantastically unique even back then, too. I had the 1970 Sport Fury S-23. Sure, not the 440 like the GT, only the 318. Lou asks if it was underpowered? Not that I could tell! The 318 was super reliable, and I drove it like a tank. Problem was in gas mileage, I can only imagine the 440 being even worse on fuel economy. Selling that car to go off to college remains my biggest regret ever! Lots of great memories, (including senior prom night in 1991- when I raced a 1987 Eagle Talon and blew its doors off on the way to the dance- LOL!) and this video helps them come all flooding back! Thank you, Lou. I have been waiting for one of these to come around and get featured. This was a real treat for me this morning! I only have a few pictures of me and the car left, but now I have this video too.
Jason Kline love your story! I never even realized there was a Fury S-23 model until this video. One correction, Eagles Talons didn't come out until 1990. I should know, a family member special ordered one the first year they came out, 1990.
I thought his was a few years old at the time, so my memory picked 1987. If it was newer, then that makes the story even better! We weren't drag racing or anything, but after the first time he blew past me ( I knew him as an acquaintance), I put my foot down and passed him with a vengeance. I'm pretty sure those Talons were like a rebadged Mitsubishi Eclipse. I'm sure he would have beat me off the line, but since the Plymouth was all top end, I was doing 90-100 with pedal to spare. He never managed to catch up, but may be he had to be less reckless with his dad's NEW car, then I had to be that night raging full of adolescent testosterone and my FURY didn't let me down!. LOL! BTW, my girlfriend wasn't too pleased at the time, but we had a great night still the same! Good Catch, and Thanks!
Jason Kline since you actually owned a S-23, can you tell us more about it? Loaded? Colors? How you found it. Yes the Eagle Talons and Plymouth Lasers were rebadged Mitsubishi Eclipses. They were build by Diamond star motors. I miss that Eagle Talon today like you miss your Sport Fury S-23. Is a super rare car today as ours was a special order car with all the trimmings.
OK. My story is exactly the reason why you don't buy a classic car for a 17 year old kid. My parents were separated, and she lived in an apartment complex that was probably 60% retirees. An older gentleman had the Sport Fury, and If he wasn't the original owner he was the second. He had it a long time, but had done some electrical work to it. Electrical problems were the worst part of the car. In this video, where the rear window defogger is, this guy had installed an after market 3rd brake light on mine, and the hide-away headlights never worked (stuck in open position). I think we paid him about 1500 or so cash, in 1990, for what my mom thought was an OLD worn out car. I had learned to drive in other family cars, but this was my first car, just for me. I needed to drive to school for my senior year, and we had got it that summer. Didn't do much work to it, but it did need a distributor cap and rotor at one point, and we did the water pump. As for my example, it was a faded red color, with the black strobe pin stripping, and a black vinyl interior. It wasn't loaded by any means, a basic version, but did have factory air that didn't work. I had managed to give it a few dings, and get a couple of speeding tickets. But it was a great car. Like I said, at the time I had to get ready to go off to college, a regular 3 hour commute to come back home to visit seemed like a lot of miles to put on an already high mileage car, and my Dad talked me into selling it to get something better on gas economy. He never told me how much he sold it for, and I saw it drive around town for a little while after. I had instant remorse, and just knew that the reason my dad never told me how much he got for it was that it wasn't enough. Even if we had just parked it, that thing would be worth a ton more than we ever spent on it by now. The video is accurate in that the GT had all the options. The S-23 was a stripped down, budget model. The surprise for me is that some came with the slant 6, presumably out of a Duster? THAT might have been underpowered because these are long heavy cars. But the 318 was a pretty decent v8, and hadn't yet been plagued to meet emission standards. In fact 1972 was the last year for the Sport Fury, because 1973 requirements couldn't be met in the platform. I didn't have it long, just over one year, but it was long enough to fall in love with the car forever.
Jason Kline awesome story. Was there any badges on the car that stated it was a S-23? How could anyone know that it was an S-23 by looking at it? I think the 6 cylinders only came in the Fury I and II. Even the S-23 base engine was the 318 V8 but could be optioned with the 383. So the only option your car had was the Air conditioning?
Thanks for sharing all these magnificent C bodies! I’ve owned three Newports, a 71, 73 and 77 and enjoyed each one. Those look like Coker replica polyglass tires. I dig the 67 Fury convertible that drove by in the background.
Hi James, Happy to read this car brings back memories of your cars :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
beautiful car - my favorite year for Fury - I was fortunate to have grown up during the era when these beauties were new in the Holley Motor Co. showroom in Tyler, Texas (east Texas’ only full line Chrysler dealer - including Imperial) my grandfather traded our 4 company cars every 2-3 years and - we traded our 68 Ember Gold metallic/white vinyl roof Fury III 2-door Fast Top and a 68 Hawaiian Blue Sport Suburban 2-seat wagon (both Commando 383-equipped) for a 70 Sunfire Yellow/black vinyl roof Sport Fury 2-door hardtop and a 70 Sandpebble Beige Sport Suburban 2-seat wagon - both 70 models were equipped with 383 engines and hood-mounted turn signals adjacent the “383” hood-mounted engine displacement badges. All “Sport” Fury models including Sport Suburban wagons were equipped with the red, white and blue rectangle adjacent the driver side concealed headlamp door. The grilles/headlamp doors on these cars had a black background with horizontal argent silver painted lines (I believe the GT and S/23 models had fully blacked out grilles but I need some verification of this detail). the sales brochure pictures appear to bear this out - by the way the chrome styled road wheel was a correct option on all models except wagons
Incidentally, I had left comments pertaining to the Tor-Red Sport Suburban wagon you featured in a different UA-cam segment a while back. Our friend OsbornTramain posted a very cool original “Plymouth Makes It” (1970 Plymouth ad slogan) TV commercial here on UA-cam (see link below). the “fuselage styled” vehicles - especially the wagons really were beautiful - with their curved glass, sheet metal, integrated rear window roof air deflectors and chrome/vinyl tailgate assist handles - just can’t say enough about these great cars

Stunning pillarless coupé. Always nice to see a car like this in long term ownership.
Hi Andrew Graham, Happy to read you were "stunned" by this one :-) Lou
I remember this car years ago running at Lancaster speedway. Always wondered what happened to it. I think i still have a picture of it somewhere. They did indeed make them with slant sixes. My dad had a 70 B5 blue 2 door Fury I with a 225 slant six and floor mounted 3 speed manual transmission!

What a great find and save on Dave’s part. I love these old Fury models and as many, I didn’t realize the 6-pack setup was available for these cars.
Happy to read you appreciate this find :-)
Had a '68 Sport Fury, factory 4 speed!, manual steering & brakes! Wish I kept it. Had to be rare.
Nick Dulak The factory 4 speed is very rare. My daily driver is a 68 Sport Fury-manual brakes. Every mile is a pleasure.
Hi Nick Dulak, Happy to read you had a fun car too :-) Thank you for viewing & sharing, Lou
Shut up
I had a 68 and a 74! From 440 to 400 boat anchor but both were a dream to drive!
Hi That Correll, Sound like wonderful memories :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
I had a 73 Charger SE with a 400 2 Barrel. Far from being a boat anchor, mine ran well. Plenty of power, acceptable gas mileage.
The body design is gorgeous! The old Plymouth's were awesome.

A very Big and BEAUTIFUL car. It has such a Sturdy body, unlike the newer car. Hard to find that car in the streets of America nowadays. STUNNING model WOW!
Hi Vern, Happy to read you enjoy this "Big and BEAUTIFUL" car :-) Lou
A friends, brother bought 70 Cuda pistol grip 4 speed with 440 4 barrel N - 50's with aluminum slots and dual exhaust. Both of us would sit in the passages as kids as he ran threw gears. Man, that car was fast as it was cool! He wrecked it 3 days later spent some time it the hospital. But when he got the insurance check. He bought a Super Bee 383 automatic and a spoiler. That car was just as cool too! Shawn
Some good memories (other than the hospital visit) :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing Shawn Beck, Lou
Thanks Lou.
Early Sunday morning w/ coffee and My car story.
I'm gonna make this my routine!
My grandma only drove Plymouth's. I would refer to her as a Plymouth Lady.
Hi C Moore, Glad to be spending Sunday's with you. Glad you're along for the ride, Lou
I am also watching on a Sunday morning in the UK. This car is beautiful.
Thanks Lou, for sharing another Great Car ! I really appreciate all the work you do providing these Videos. The "Hideaway" Wipers are a Great Feature. The Car looks better and in Cold weather, they protect the Wipers from Freezing to the Windshield. Also if the Wipers do Freeze to the Windshield, they are so close to the engine that the heat released from the engine will unfreeze them in a couple minutes. I lived up in Canada, when I was in University doing my Masters Degree. I had a 1980 Cadillac Coupe DeVille with Hideaway Wipers, Never once did I have to fight with frozen in place wipers.
Hi Max, I like the hidden wipers too :-) My pleasure sharing with you. Thanks for your kind words on the videos, it's appreciated, Lou
It was definitely a good idea. Pontiac pioneered it in 1967 and I think pretty much every car has that feature today.
To me the one from 68 just fits the name fury perfectly, the headlights on it are literally giving you the death stare.
Hi Chike Chovis, "the headlights on it are literally giving you the death stare" Just the way we like it :-) Lou
Love that car. My favorite color too. We had a Fury wagon, a blast to drive.

Glad you enjoy this rare one Francois :-)
Lou,
You really do show your subscribers some very beautiful cars! Most of these Sport Fury’s were harvested for their engines and left for the crusher making them one of the rarest of The Chrysler’s crop for 1970. This one with all it’s options is a real treat to see. Thx again Lou (The former Bradydog23)

One of my favorite all time cars! Lou you did another 1970 Plymouth Sport Fury GT in a white exterior owned by a father/son that was beautiful. But honestly, this one in Jamaica Blue is gorgeous with that gold/yellow reflective strip. I guess Air conditioning couldn't be had on the 440 six pack either? Lol. Probably being a Buffalo N.Y. car, the rear defogger was more of a necessity than the Air conditioning option. And who doesn't love the hideaway headlight? Dave was awesome and knowledgeable.
Hi Kenneth White, Glad to read a Winner for you! This car was parked next to the White Fury the day I filmed it :-) Lou
no a.c. on 6 packs, as it interfered with the front carb
Very Nice car, thank you for upload!!! Congratts from Brazil!!! Like your vídeos.
HI Alexandre C, Glad you enjoy this car and think it's very nice :-) Welcome Brazil to the Channel, and happy you like the videos, Lou
This is one of my favorite cars, I really like the color of this example. I remember discovering a website dedicated to 70/71 Sport Fury’s many years ago and spending literally hour looking at it.

Hi Ash qelon, Happy to read you "love these stories of "SURVIVORS" brought back to life" :-) Lou
Your cars are ALWAYS awesome!
Thank you Aaron :-)
@@loucostabile Anytime!
Very nice! I've always lke the Furys. They are the ultimate sleepers & many don't find out they picked on the wrong car until it's too late.
That's why their called "Fury" :-0
It's the furious beast, almost 50 years old, what a great car, made in era when engine bays were not cluttered with government smog emissions equipment, and high tech computers, electronics, and plastic everywhere. It's an honest big powerful American car, that has style and comfort and what more would you want.
Well said Marten Trudeau :-)
my father had one just like this…. rare as they come

Awesome car Dave! I use to race you at Cayuga and St Thomas with your 70 Sport GT 440 , four barrel I believe. I have always loved these cars. My grandpa had a 70 GT ! To bad the dude had no idea about Mopars or your car in particular.
Hi Tom & Sharon Cox, Happy to read you enjoy this car :-) Sounds like some fun memories, Lou
I took my driving test in Maryland in a 1970 Fury - 3 on the tree, no power steering or brakes! My parents bought it brand new for $2500. It was the totally stripped model that dealers got to attract you to buy but then changed your mind to buy something far more expensive… nobody ever got in my way!

By the way - there was a lot of discussion about having a 318 engine… Ours was a 318 & had more than enough “impulse” but perhaps that was because it a standard transmission.
Awesome car in every way. Nothing says American like a huge car with a ton of horsepower!
Hi The Sharkster, High praise :-) Glad to read you enjoy this car, Lou

Thanks for sharing another super rare car Lou. My Aunt had one with a 383, in brown. I grew up in C body Mopars, I was born in 63, my dad had 63,67 and 71 New Yorkers. Then a pair of 73 and 74 Chargers. Black and Gold. Needless to say my first car was a Coronet and I've owned C bodies, Dodge trucks and a lot of Mopars.
Keep the Mopars coming Lou!

Hi Robert Lee, Thank you for sharing your story. You've found the right UA-cam Channel for you :-) Enjoy, and glad you're along for the ride, Lou
Lou Costabile , I just watched one from a year ago from the sunroof show, the Gurney Cougar, another rare one. BTW,. In the background is a black 75 Roadrunner. Someone gave me a base 75 Sport Fury with blown head gaskets. I'm looking at it, and I've got a 68 318 with 230 horse compared to the 75s 110. Well, you know what happened! Lol
Cool old GT. I'll bet it will still haul the mail!
You're right :-)
Hey Lou. Beautiful looking 1970 Plymouth Sport Fury. :)
Hey Jason, Glad you enjoy the looks of this one :-) Lou
Great job saving this super rare car! It's a shame the bonehead yard couldn't see what they had and keep it in one piece. Awesome restoration!
Glad you appreciate the rarity of this one Geovanni InUSA :-) Hope you see many more cars on this UA-cam Channel you'll enjoy, Lou
Beautiful car Lou. There were 440 comments for this powerful 440 cubic inch Sport Fury. I almost didn't comment because I didn't want to wreck the 440 comments number. Lol.
Hi Jesse, That's awesome :-) Comment away, and glad to share this one with you, Lou

What a beautiful car. All around juicy, and buyable. Too many people overlooked it back then. Wish performance cars had interior and trunk space like they did back in the day. Hey- Detroit...listen up!

Happy to read "Love these car" :-) You're on the right UA-cam Channel for you.
Love the B7 blue !!
:-)
Really cool ride. As for the hide-a-way wipers, while style wise they look great but if you live where it snows you quickly learn what pain they can be.
Hi Andy Leibrook, Glad you like the "really cool ride" and thank you for sharing your knowledge on the wipers, Lou
Also friends dad had a 440 New Yorker . That was a beast also.
Ahhhh "The Beast" :-) Sounds like a great car.
If it's Lou its gotta be blue LOL. Great video Lou, thanks, your stories are always interesting and the trunk treats are always informative, and yes I pause and read them LOL. I really do appreciate the time you spend bringing these great "old" cars back to us. I know many, many others appreciate it as well. BTW I've heard that the lowly 318 small blocks can be "built-up" to something in the 600 hp range. Can you imagine a high winding small-block putting ou that kind power? That's getting into Viper range but with a little less torque. Giddy-up my man Giddy-up.
Hi Rich, "If it's Lou its gotta be blue" I like that :-) And a 318 with 600 HP, that's IMPRESSIVE! Lou
Beautiful color!
:-)
When I was a kid in the late 70s my neighbor had one of these cars except hers was brown, she must have been at least 80 years old and every morning she would come backing out of the driveway burning rubber and then lay down some serious rubber heading towards the stop sign at the end of the block. My sister and I thought it was hilarious.
