Plymouth Fury 1978 Description

Here's a rare find indeed, n original paint/interior/drive train time capsule barn find for sure. This a one of the Minnesota's unique 440 magnum big block Maroon cruiser's. They ordered their cars up a little different than most states. The 60/40 fabric seats, atching carpet no rubber mat, actory Mopar radio, ear electric defrost, ower windows, ody colored wheels as well as the standard police package upgrades. This car also has the big 9 1/4 suregrip rear end and factory torque boxes to handle the torque of the 440 as the trooper launched it into pursuit mode. These cars were built to go all day long at any speed. Here's what I was told on this cars back story. This car was sold at auction with a low 72k miles on it. The owner wanted to preserve it and bought most of the Agency specific equipment at the same auction. The light bar (not working) and spotlight are original to this car. This car also has the really cool, orrect Minnesota specific push bumper, adios with wire harness and trunk unit, adar unit, rooper officer manual and uniform. This car even still has it's factory Goodyear police pursuit spare tire. It was stored indoors for years. The out building that it was in collapsed and the roof and light bar did get a little banged up with some damage. It sat outside for a short period of time. The owner passed away and his boys got the car. As times change today's kids don't have any interest in the unique features of these old Pursuit cars so you know what happened next. Lets play rip the drive train out of the old cop car and put it in something else. Well that's where I stepped in. I was able to purchase the vehicle before it was to late. The drive shaft was taken out and one of the exhaust manifolds was taken off, ront p side door wont open, ll the power windows do work. Here it sits ready for a (Full Restoration). It has the normal bumps and bruise's to be expected of a old cop car of this age. All original 440 drive train is still in the car. No the car does not run. It has a clear title in hand and is a completely untouched time capsule. Please ask all questions on this sold as is sale. Bid to win and good luck!!
