"Lucille"--a rare beauty. The 1960 Fury was the ultimate expression of "The Forward Look" styling, designed by Richard Exner. On every outing I get "I love your car!" Routinely, people ask if they can photograph themselves standing next to her.
She's "Resto-Mod" not stock: I swapped in a rebuilt 1964 413 cu. in. Chrysler engine and a 1979 Mopar transmission, so she's now screaming fast. But included in the sale is the original 361 cu. in. motor and original push-button transmission, so purists can take her back to pristine 1960.
Only 32,000 miles. I bought her from Ellingson Motors, a Minnesota dealer, in December 2020. Before then, she had two owners, one in Georgia and one in Florida, so she was never exposed to winter conditions. Virtually rust-free: a tiny bit down where the painted body metal curves under. A total of about 6 square inches if you added up all the tiny patches. I can take photos if you are concerned.
Have put in over $50,000 to bring her to fine fettle She's now mechanically super, or will be when I get the steering gearbox rebuilt. Much new or rebuilt equipment, including leaf springs, front and rear shocks, gas tank, fuel line, sparks and wires, floor shifter, complete exhaust system and mufflers, Edelbrock 4 barrel carburetor, spark plugs and wires, 5-core radiator, fan, fabricated fan shroud, starter motor, alternator, electronic ignition, master brake cylinder. And I replaced the puny 14" wheels with 17" ones, with black spokes. That gives a dramatically more stable ride and cornering ability.
Own a stunning piece of automotive history.
