PL21L0F234183 is for sale on Hemmings. She used to be tan (FT3 or FT6), but is now black. She used to have a vinyl top, which is now gone. She was born with a 383-2 engine but now has a 440. Among the few options is the A97 (Spring Special ?) package.

I am trying to understand the interior, as it does not seem to match any of the styles shown in the Hamtramck Library:

The 1970 Hamtramck Registry - 1970 Plymouth Color & Trim Book - Fury

The interior was originally P4TT -- which I had never seen, and is not listed in the Library -- but is now black. Perhaps @69CoronetRT or @70 Sport Suburban can chime in?

From the ad:

"1970 Plymouth Fury II. This car is a 2 door sedan (post car). I was told the car was rotisserie restored a few years ago. It is rust free and straight as far as I can tell. Underneath is as clean as the top. New interior, seat belts, suspension, etc. Power Steering, power brakes (4 wheel drum), hood mounted turn signals and rear window defroster.
I have only owned the car for about a year and a half but I have some notes from the build. I think it was originally a 383 2BBL (according to the fender tag) but that engine was replaced with a built 440 from a 1968 Fury. It has 1972 heads so there are no worries about unleaded fuel. I only run premium in my cars. 727 Torqueflight transmission. The rear end has highway gears.
Since I have owned it, I replaced the steering box, the fuel pump, and repaired the headlight motor. The hideaway headlights work fine but the motor runs off a separate switch.
The things I have yet to do... The heater fan does not work. All the parts are there. The rear defroster does not work either. Again, all the parts seem to be there. It does not have a radio.

The car was appraised at $23,000. I have the copy of the appraisal.

I believe this was a Gran coupe Paisley car factory.
With a PL21 in her VIN? You may be right.
Using the P4TT trim code to search FCBO, I just found another 1970, very similar car — PL21L0D18800 — with the same kind of tag.

That parts car was, in 2017, called a “Gran Coupe” by @barnfind in this post:

I have this car in my 1970 Fury I folder as the PL (Low) is Fury I and PE (Economy) is Fury II right?
Scratch that, In looking through my 1968 Fury folder PE is Fury I & PL is Fury II

Anyways some 1970 Fury II door pics that I believe are original. (from 2014)
