1971 Plymouth Fury I 2dr info

[3175375]

Extremely interesting vehicle and a great example!

I'm suspecting "Fury Custom" was a Spring Special model? Might a data plate picture also be taken? Which would have the production schedule date and first part of the VIN.

Thanks,

PE21G1F107432 sports an early VIN sequence, so it is likely an August 1970 build (indeed, the scheduled build date was August. 31, 1970). I doubt that it'd be a special that early on in the model year, but that's only a guess: @67valiant 100 (who tracks F-plant cars), @69CoronetRT (who has a lot of info on fusie builds), and / or @70 Sport Suburban (a Fury aficionado is ever there was one) may be able to chime in.

There's some wonky coding in 70 and 71. The A94 indicates a special 'package' or 'body style' or 'administrative modification' of some sort. I do not have a '71 window sticker that lists details so I don't know for sure.

(Another good reason WHY we need to save as much dealer paperwork, broadcast sheets, window stickers and tags as possible.)

Updates like that would be great to post in the Hamtramck Historical library. Let me know if you are interested in sharing to the site.

Is there a date on this pamphlet? January '71 or is it later?

The GT no longer available bullet is interesting for sure.

Would you like a copy you can post it if you'd like.

I found this which is extremely interesting.

I don't think the "replacement" of the GT was an improvement.

High quality scans is best. High quality photos may be OK.

Let me know if I can help. I have scanned other members items and returned them to the owners.

Aside from Hamtramck, there are a few here that always love to read the BS.
