Hello all, New to your forum and also new to the Mopar owners realm.
I just bought a low mileage 65 Sport Fury from the second owner which stated that he purchased the car from the original owner in Jackson, SC. The original owner was an FBI agent and according to him the car was special ordered with a 383 with the Offenhauser dual quad intake and Holley carbs from the factory. They are long gone now due to the second owner removing them when he bought it 7 years ago and putting on a single 4 barrel and an edelbrock single plane intake stating that the original aluminum intake was corroded too bad for use. The car sat in a storage building for several decades prior to his purchasing the car.
Now, for my question. I have researched the 65 Sport Fury quite extensively finding the same information everywhere (383 / 4 barrel - 330HP) with no information on special ordering availability. Do any of you know if something like this was done in 65? The car also has the heavy duty brake system with power brakes, power steering, AC, 2 door hard top and 3.73 Posi traction rearend.
