Hi All, If you own a 1958 Plymouth, you no doubt have heard of the rare copper-plated brass charm bracelets that were a prestige dealer giveaway item. These...
Hi all. There is a red 58 Plymouth Fury on the internet (not for sale) which the owner claims to be original factory order red. He claims it was to be used on...
I have heard that story -- Mel told Joel that when he was trying to sell him the car. I doubt the story very much, but nonetheless it is a beautiful car ...
Hi Glenn Personally,,I think a 58 CONVERT was more likely. Seroiusly,,I would guess he could have had the dealer repaint it? ED ... From: Glenn Barratt To: GFS...
Ed. A dealer can paint a car pink with orange stripes...it does not make it a factory color... The question here is about factory assembly line detail-a dealer...
Not directly relevant to this topic but, possibly, of interest is a car that I have seen and been told the history of by several independent sources. I spent a...
Dear Group, I hate to break anybody bubble but I personally drove my 1956 Fury to 8 different dealers in 1957 and then again in 1958 just to see Furys in the ...
Just the fact that Mel entered into the story puts the whole thing in a questionable light. There are more genuine 'movie Christines' now than were used in the...
Hi All, I have four bracelets available for immediate sale from the first run as the three people who had requested them have now all backed out because of the...
Build Sheet would tell the real story.....I believe. A lot can happen over the course of 47 years through a cars history. There are great body and paint guys...

It's implied in the opening scene that the red car is a Fury in the midst of all of the Buckskin (with silver Sportone trim!) Furys. The book said the original...

Maybe, for once, my vast (obsessive) knowledge of Christine may come into play. Plymouth did make 1 58 Plymouth that was Torredo (spell check) red. I doubt...
There were actually tons of Torreador Red Plymouths made, yes. The thing is though, they weren't Furys. But technically, Christine (as in the Movie not the...
Actually-- In the movie Christine was supposed to be a Fury as Larry said. Not only did she come off the assembly lines with the other Fury's- but in a couple...
Doug, You seem to write with a lot of authority when you say you know they made one red Fury at the factory. What are you basing your beliefs on???? What proof...

Hello Jack, Saw your reference to gold anodizing. What information do you have on re-doing the 1956 Fury gold trim? All the anodizing places here say it can't ...
