"Zero in on performance, inside and out style, and a feel for
luxury that lets you know this is your car. Take a trial spin down
the road and snuggle back in bucket seat comfort as you go. Wander
off on a bumpy road and see how little difference it makes to your
riding pleasure. Back in town, be a little modest as you get
admiring glances from those who haven't driven the '65 Sports Fury
yet." From the 1965 Plymouth Fury sale catalog.
For consignment, a 1965 Plymouth Sport Fury 2 door hardtop showing
25,887 miles, but the true miles are unknown due to a PA title
exemption. This is a two owner car in original condition, no
modifications, and a set of fresh tires ready to go!
NOTE: This vehicle is titled as a 1965 model year, however, the VIN
denotes the car as a 1966 model year.
Exterior
Our consignor believes this is the original single stage Dark Green
Metallic and we tend to agree as the Fury makes a noteworthy
impression with a front leaning fascia that is an intricate
assembly of lines, shapes, and bezels surrounding stacked round
headlights, the position of which cause a slight raise in the top
fender that is split by the hood gap. That means the hood itself is
particularly wide and is capped by PLYMOUTH lettering on the nose
and an ornament to crown it all. In profile, the triangular shape
of the C-pillar is distinct as it reduces in size where it meets
the body and creates a sharp angle to the back windows. Meanwhile,
a bold body trim piece runs the length of the car, almost like a
stripe and is accented by red, white, and blue stripes on the front
quarter panel, something Furys would have in some form for years
and often in different places on the car. The rear fascia consists
of a stainless panel between what were basic tail lights in 1965,
but muscular in their simplicity in 2026. 14-inch wheels with
covers wear 215/75R14 tires with an early 2025 date code.
Imperfections include drop staining and mottled dull spots
throughout, touched up chips, dented trim, chips, scratches, rock
spray, rust spots on the bumper.
Interior
Of all the American cars of this era, there's something just a bit
extra about Plymouths and as it happens, the Sport Fury was the top
trim level. Citron Gold door panels are tidy and well designed and
both, while fully intact, show some age. Ribbed low back buckets
seats are also somewhat intricate and the rear seats include a
contoured area around Plymouth's red, white, and blue denotation
and all seats, present in good shape with age to some. A full horn
ring resides on the steering wheel on a chrome column that leads to
a stunning dashboard highlighted by a large square speedometer.
Move over, Tesla, this is a big display! It's flanked by a series
of well positioned gauges, switches, and knobs, a clock, and an AM
radio, along with chrome rimmed vents throughout. An AM radio lives
in the center inline with the woodgrain covered center console with
robust chrome shifter. Gold twist carpet covers the floor and along
with the headliner, is in excellent condition. A period type plaid
mat serves as the trunk liner in this clean and voluminous cargo
hold.
Drivetrain
There's lots of room in this clean engine bay which makes the 318ci
V8 appear small.It has a 2-barrel carburetor and is rated at 230
horsepower. Behind it, an A727 Torqueflite 3-speed automatic
transmission sending power to the 8 � rear with 2.94 gears. The bay
presents in driver quality condition but plenty of elbow room when
it comes time to clean.
Undercarriage
Typical patina underneath with surface rust, some residual oil and
build up at the knuckles, but otherwise clean and solid. The single
exhaust travels through a newer looking stock style muffler on its
way to a rear exit and drum brakes are on all four wheels.
Suspension consists of torsion bars in front and leaf springs in
back.
Drive-Ability
This time capsule takes us back to '65 and does so with a proper
running engine and some fine style inside and out. Straight
tracking coupled with near limitless visibility through the
post-less cabin make for pleasurable drive. All functions worked as
they should with the exception of the radio and clock. While
Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at
the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions
will be working at the time of your purchase.
It's no coincidence that in the '65 sales brochure, they refer to
the cigarette lighter in this car as the 'cigar lighter' as this
represents mid size luxury for the era, reserved to the well to do.
This survivor is a rare find; all original and a straight body with
an overall clean interior. It won't be here long.
