It appears the left front fender is from a sport Fury.

My best guess:
"1970 Plymouth Fury 3 convertible. Runs and drives, with rebuilt 318 in it, and rebuilt transmission under 3000 miles on both of those. Comes with the original motor. Stored at a friends house, hopefully still there. Top works, but needs redone. Contact if interested!"

Old cars are worth whatever someone is willing to pay, so far be it from me to disagree. I was looking at the fact that the late model engine actually diminishes the car as a collector item. Body is pretty much rust free, a decided plus. Interior is trashed, $800 for a dash pad, about $2500 for seats and carpets. Replacement top cylinders are around $150 ea, replacement top pump $250, misc top hoses about $100. A lot of older converts have bad top bows from snow load. A full bow set when available is about another $500. Replacement top pads and top will probably run another $500. Car has one incorrect front fender that will cost $600 to replace. I also see a dead fan shroud $195, broken tail light lens and a bunch of work under the dash to get the non working stuff repaired. That can be pretty expensive as converts usually ship a lot of water to the dash area if the top is bad and the car is left sitting out. That is before we talk about a heater core and likely non-working A/C.
The point here is go into such a buy with your eyes and wallet open as this car will not be a cheap fix.

The Sport Fury used a side marker on the front that is about twice the size of the standard marker. In the photo supplied the hole for the marker looks too big to be for the standard marker, although it could just have a dark colored paint that did not photograph well. The standard marker has the metal rolled inward to supply relief for the side marker, the Sport Fury has the hole cut out larger with no relief.
