Original Survivor 383 Plymouth Fury Convertible. No Reserve! Drive Anywhere!

Description for Plymouth Fury 1969

Up for auction is my 1969 Plymouth Fury Convertible.This is a no reserve auction.I am selling because I've come to the conclusion, after owning three convertibles, that I just don't like convertibles! Also, this car is not without needs and to truly enjoy her, you need to address them. Principal among those needs is a new top and new upholstery. All other needs are minor.Listen to her purr!https://youtu.be/UglqcYvAGr4
This car underwent a full mechanical tune up a year ago and runs like a champ with no issues, see the receipt for all work done from the renowned Allied Engine, the premier classic auto repair shop in San Francisco. Definitely can drive across the country with it just as it is right now. Starts up every time, runs as expected. Sometimes a whine comes from the power steering bearings upon acceleration until the vehicle has gotten a chance to warm up but does not affect anything. I've been up to Healdsburg from where I acquired it and drove it home that day, and I've been down to Monterey from home base - San Francisco, where the car is currently garaged.Only things that don't work: AC needs overhaul and Freon. I recommend Alouis radiator here in SF - they could have it working in a day but I just don't need AC, in San Francisco, in a convertible so I've not dealt with that.The clock and radio don't work either but are in place and of course can be restored. Two thin cracks in the dashboard. Pretty remarkable that's all there is wrong with the dash on a 47 year old convertible. I have disassembled the dashboard face as I was doing a few things behind it - some electrical issues when I bought the car last year, but will put that all back together before you take possession.
New battery, new exhaust, new shocks, suspension, new hoses, water pump, belts, valve cover gaskets, rear transmission seal, wires, everything it needed. Even had the carburetor rebuilt. Absolutely flawless functioning, as the work was done by PaulGrech at Allied.Someone, probably a Chrysler dealer, put the Chrysler ECU electronic ignition in this car back in the day so no points are needed. This is probably why it still has the original engine - this much easier on an engine than ignition points. See the photos for further documentation of work done - that's not all the work but as you can see I spared no expense making her mechanically reliable.A friend gave me some NOS asbestos brake shoes for this car he had lying around and let me tell you, they're awesome! It's really true: Asbestos is best.I used Amsoil filters and lubricants for the tune up and that's what's in there now. Car has been garaged for the time I've had it. It's safe to say the odometer has gone around once, but I'm pretty sure it's not gone around twice.
Only mistake I made: I had the bright idea to put a better front seat into it. This is a seat from a yard, coming from a 77 Chrysler New Yorker. It is a perfect fit, bolted right up being from another C-body, but it doesn't really match the interior style as is. I was going to let a local upholsterer make it right and that could happen. Unfortunately someone stole the original bench seat from near my garage space - I am confident a correct replacement could be found in a yard for $200. I wanted the electric multi-position split seats with armrests and it cost me a pretty penny to get it in there so if you think that makes the ride nicer, I agree!Run an extension off the wiring harness and it's ready to move for you.Hey, at least it's an original Mopar C-body part, right?
