I don’t know much about these cars as to wether it’s real or not but I do love the interior color.

He is careful to not say it is a GT, but specifies "70 sport fury with GT package add-on"
Probably inline with what a decent PH29L car is worth. Its originally FK5/V1W/orange gut 383-2bbl car. Been around a long time as shown.

Color change is a disappointment but does look like it was done well with engine bay and jambs painted. Price seems in the ballpark to me.
Thank you @c-barge -- the photos are very helpful. Here is the link to part of the car's history (from about 1991 to about 2004) from Dave Carson, who owned the car till June '04: My Mopars - 1970 Sport Fury GT
From that page:

Its a 1970 Sport Fury. It was originally a 383 2bbl car that has transformed into a 440 4bbl GT clone over the years. (...) The 440 runs great and the car goes down the road very well. (...)
I purchased the car in May 2003 from John Price. He had the car for almost exactly 12 years and I believe it was his first car. After personally admiring the car at various Mopar gatherings in Ontario over the years I jumped at the chance to buy it when I seen it for sale. John said the car has run a best of 14.4 at 98mph with the current engine and a set of 3:55 gears. With a Six Pack set-up and 3:91's it broke into the 13's!!! I found a few timeslips in the car for 14.7's and 14.8's @ 92mph so the car has a fair bit of get up and go. It really does make for a great highway cruiser.
I believe the car was last painted about 8 years ago and is still very presentable today. The body guy did a real nice job as those big black quarters look very straight. Nothing worst than a big black car with poor bodywork. As you can see the car was originally Burnt Orange with a Burnt Orange interior and white vinyl roof. John removed the factory bodyside mouldings, changed the body colour and vinyl roof to black and added the very cool reflective orange GT stripe. I think John made some great choices when it came to the colour combo...I can't imagine a cooler looking combination.
The car was ordered with power steering, power disc brakes, rear window defogger, buckets and the "buddy" seat. The car still has its fender tag, broadcast sheet and door sticker.
I sadly sold the car in late June of 2004. (...) The last I heard the car was in Hamilton Ontario."

Probably because it isn't a 6bbl motor but a 440HP with a 6bbl carb setup. Notice it doesn't have the 6bbl distributor.

Doesn't make a mention of a 440HP with a 6bbl carb setup in the ad either
