I bought my 68 Sport Fury one year ago today. It has come a long way in a year despite my learning curve on Chrysler products and not having done any mechanical stuff in nearly 30 years.

Thanks everyone on the forum for your advice and help. It wouldn’t be a daily driver today without the help.

This is the first Chrysler product ever for me and i started driving in 1987. The engineering ideas seem a lot better than Ford or GM and I wonder why Chrysler wasn’t more successful.

Sitting comfortably in the driveway. Going to change neutral safety switch today if thunderstorms slack off long enough.

Great experience you've had, I really like to see newbies get all the support and help they need to make their project into a daily driver. It doesn't get any better than that!!

Thank you for re-affirming what this site is, (should be), all about. Beautiful car!

Thanks a lot. Yes, people here have been helpful always.

Car is good until closer inspection. Rust bubbles around fenders (rear), dented bumper and trunk slightly sprung on pass. side. Frame rust at grill and under driver's door area. I am going to see if my body guy (who helped me install new engine) can weld new steel in. I plan on keeping the car as a daily unless I win the Powerball and grab a 300 convertible :D.

I got this from a Mopar guy who did everything but C bodies. So many weeds around it I could not get underneath. He said he hated to see it get crushed. I might have taken a pass had I seen the amount of rust on the frame.
 
Congrats on the 1 year anniversary. That is a good looking fast top Sport Fury. Thanks for rescuing it from from the neglected state you found it in. I'm glad we could be of help, that is what we are here for.
