Such a bizarre front end and fins! Hated ugly cars as a kid, now I love them. Can't believe this was thought of as sellable, like the 61 Fury's. Wish I had the money for this one.

Ugh, that interior...
At least it is all there except for the original seats.
How much to do a complete A to Z interior? lol

Properly, with NOS style fabrics? I think you're looking at about $5000.

Bob.......... This car should have your name on the title. Front seat would be the biggest challenge, but do-able

I agree 1,000%.
As rare a Fin as you can get without getting into the stratosphere territory.
A seat frame from virtually any parts car Fin will work.

The model year for These 61s didn't even extend into the calendar year. I always liked them.

I'll be in Indiana in a couple of weeks to get a txsm for the Newport.....I may take a look at it.

On a side note: I'm taking the NYB to a body shop one of my guys use to work at this Friday for an estimate on getting the rust repaired and the whole car painted and a new vinyl top. I'm also going to have them take the seats out and repair the floors if needed and paint the floors and put that new carpet that I had for several years...
