Up for sale is a 1976 Plymouth Gran Fury Police Car, this is a PK41 U code 440 police package vehicle.

I became aware of the Fury in July of 2011, it was posted on Ebay by the previous owner. The car was located in Lynchburg Virginia,based on paperwork found in the car it is likely the Fury has been off the road since 1981. I purchased it in June of 2012 and transported it to Manassas Virginia.

The Fury was shipped to me in Florida in May of 2013, at that time I began the repair and evaluation process.

The Fury is the most complete and original vintage cruiser I have observed. I appears that the engine bay has been unmolested since its production.
The car was equipped with the Carter Thermo-Quad and all the associated vacuum lines and switches and sensors.
I would guess that this is a numbers matching car, I say this because every clip,bracket and connection seems to be intact

After securing the Fury in Virginia I poured a gallon of PB blaster  and two quarts of transmission fluid  into the carburetor, I let the mix set for several months.
I pulled the plugs and lubricated the cylinders, added fresh gas, jumped the ignition relay and the long dormant 440 ROARED to life.
