1968 Sport Fury 440, 4spd How rare?
Yesterday I found a '68 SF with a 440,4spd, Dana, buckets, console, etc. The car is complete with very little rust but it needs a lot of tlc. I'm having problems finding info about this car so I'm hoping you guys can help. I was told it is 1 of 19 or so built but I have no way to prove that. I think it would be a very cool car finished and if it is rare I would really like to save it. Please help a GM guy figure this Mopar mystery! Thanks.

Re: 1968 Sport Fury 440, 4spd How rare?
The car that you described is indeed, very rare! I don't know the production figures and I don't know where to go to find them or if they even exist. The Fury was the full-sized Plymouth and the Sport Fury was the sporty model, full-size Plymouth, with bucket seats and console standard equipment. The 440 engine and 4-speed transmission were both options and I have a hunch someone special ordered this car.
A 4-speed transmission was available as an option in selected, full-size Chrysler products from 1964 through 1968. Stick shift cars of this size were built only by special order, either a sold-car ordered by a customer or a special order made by the dealer. This car is definitely worth saving! I wish I knew where it was. Good luck with this and let us know what you do.
