1969 Plymouth Fury Sport review from North America
"Not bad for a 60s car, guzzles gas, is very sporty-looking"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Seats are a bit worn, especially the drivers.
Blew a rod at 450000.
Total engine rebuild at 500000.
All the regular -- oil, spark plugs, etc etc.
General comments?
I like this car. It's very comfortable for a 60s car and it sounds cool.
The only problem is here in Manitoba, it gets to be around -50 degrees c and sometimes she just wouldn't start (these were in the days when I was still in high school, and the school was open way across town).
No real big problems, although I blew a rod and got a new rebuilt engine, then that one blew something - I can't remember. After that I sold it for a 1990 Jeep.
