Hello All, new project

[ArmyGopher13]

Hello All,

I just got a few days ago a 1973 Plymouth Fury. This thing is so cool so far. I am new to the world of mopar/Plymouth. The last few years I was working on a different vehicle just traded it for this one. I am excited I love the car already and hope to find some awesome details about and learn from this experience. My plan for the car is to keep it as original as possible since I am told it only has 33k miles and is currently never been modified

Where is a good place to get parts for these cars. I am having a hard time finding a wiring harness for the engine bay

Great low mileage Fury! Welcome from Virginia!!

Thank you just got some of the wiring fixed today and my biggest issue I have ran into is the calipers for the front they seem to be non existent

Rock auto is a good source. For hard to find parts, try @tallzag or @marty mopar for NOS, or @71Polara383 and @70 Sport Suburban gor used parts.

Totally agree- as original as possible, and in time, I believe the originality always wins through. Modern parts stand out like the proverbial.

So I do have a question for the ones wiser than I. Is it still count as original if I am forced to use a aftermarket part that is OE equivalent

Hi, from Chilton, Wi

I had a 73 Gran Sedan back in the late 80's. It was one of the best Furys I ever owned. Unfortunately, it was my daily driver and the 400 drank gas like it was free! I was spoiled by the MPGs of the 318s I had in most of my Furys. lol

 

[ArmyGopher13]

My hope is to drive this as my daily driver I am really hoping I can get at least 12mpg in the city my current vehicle I drive gets 10-12
