Regarding the Brougham package, the bucket seat interior was only available in Brougham trim. On Sport Fury's, GT's and wagons, as far as I know based on my research and cars that I have seen, they did not get the Brougham dash emblem, they got Sport Fury, Sport Suburban and Custom Suburban in 1971. I think only the Fury III cars with the Brougham interior got the Brougham dash emblem. Dodges may be different. I have a survivor '71 Custom Suburban with the Brougham package and the only Brougham nameplates are on the D pillar. My wagon has the typical Brougham 50/50 split bench with individual fold down armrests for each side, power driver's side seat and a reclining passenger seat. These seats are so comfortable. My wagon has perforated vinyl seating surfaces so the vinyl breathes a bit. I have had the front seat repaired with NOS material since the photo below was taken and also added the 16 slot road wheels. I hope to get the wagon to Carlisle this year or next year depending on time and money.

Dash is black....... I don't see that as a Brougham or a Brougham interior. ..Where's the specialists?

A76 : You've got to have this code on the tag to enter the world of the "Brougham".

According to data books "Brougham emblem on C-pillar". But I wouldn't take that as the final word.

All Broughams were column shift, because of the interior package...except for one 70 Sport Fury GT 6BBL.

FP, please note that in 1971, there was only one bucket seat option for the Fury and that is the Brougham style buckets. My former GT has the exact same bucket seats as the Seattle WA area car but has a console. The door panels and every other interior piece is the same. No other bucket seat option was available per the 1971 Plymouth dealer trim book so whether you ordered the A76 Brougham package with bucket seats or the C55 bucket seats, the seats were the same.

You mean the seat material and pattern was the same?

Or the bucket seat frame is the same?

Obviously if you don't have an A76 package car then you don't have a Brougham car. Brougham interior was an option package; A76.

Bill, all due respect, Ive known you a long time, ( 18 years? ) I think you're wrong on this one.
I didnt think your car was a Brougham car. I always thought the seats in your Fury were standard vinyl buckets in the Fury Sport/GT in 71. Critters car has the brougham interior ....

What I am saying is that only one style of bucket seats( in vinyl) was available in 1971 for the Plymouth Fury line per the Plymouth dealer's trim book for 1971. That is what I am saying. The white bucket seat interior in my former GT only differs in color and console vs. arm rest compared to the Burnished Red GT's interior and Can Critter's interior. Can Critter's GT is the first '71 GT that I have seen that has the Brougham nameplate on the dash and the emblems on the C Pillar.

However, the 1971 Plymouth Dealer Trim book does not show cloth insert bucket seats as being available - it only shows vinyl covered buckets. When I get back home, I can post a photos from the book. Now with Chrysler in the 1970's, different factories could have built the cars differently. You can never say never or always when it comes to the way Chrysler built cars in the 1960's & 1970's. Just saying...

I have only seen Broughams in 1970 and 1971 with special bucket seat interiors compared to the standard bucket seats in other Sport Furys including GTs . And the Broughams always had the reclining bucket seat on the passenger side. I have seen other Broughams besides Critters with that special seat material and design. Here is the color and trim selector for 1971 for the Brougham models:

And this is the page for the vinyl bucket seat in the SFGTs:

And the same situation was the case in the 1970 SFGTs:
