This car was huge. I drove mine to campus, opened the trunk, took out my 26 inch bicycle, and rode around to my classes.
This is why all this police cars were so fast. As heavy as the car was. The power was off the charts. And most police agency's had rather use Chrysler power vehicles than all the other brands. The 440.cid was the most powerful Engine of all the car manufacturers for the police package vehicles. Which were the Plymouth Fury line
I had one of these back in HS! It was a great car! It handled great for a land yacht and was very dependable and the rust prevention on these things was superior! We finally sold it in the mid 90's and it was still as clean and rust free as it was in 1971! Not so great on gas with the 360 under the hood, but over all one of the best cars I ever had and very dependable.
I wish I could go back to 1971 things seem to be happier & more simpler then and fun

Don't forget Nixon. Then there was Jimmy damn Carter who destroyed the muscle car.
This is a beautiful HUGE car! It's awesome! The interior is luxurious. The quarter panels are massive pieces of sheet metal.

Mopars advanced features included torsion bar suspension - very good high speed control!
You gotta love those early 1970's land yachts.
dang fine looking cars they made back then

Chrysler had originally intended to discontinue Dodge, but the survey said, nobody wanted a "Plymouth" branded truck. So, Dodge stayed and Plymouth went. Personally, I'm glad. i like Dodges better. These fuselage cars were horrible to be honest. They had lots of electrical problems, bad visibility, and a suspension system that made every road feel like a sheet of ice. That's why they're getting rare. Most of them ended up getting wrecked.

+Kyle Dexter My mechanic here in France, told me that Mopar cars are really difficult to drive because they don't give you road feedback. Marshmallow steering, excessively soft suspension, add to this bias ply tires and 370 hp, you've got the recipe for a wreck. Comparatively, driving a GM car of this era with radial tires is easy as can be.

Love it Ah the good ole days,thank God I still have 2
My first car was a Fury Custom Suburban. I loved that car. I would buy another one in a heartbeat.
Had a '71 SportFury fastop rear glass 2dr with the 383 2bbl (cast crank!) engine and 2.76 gears. It was a highway beast!! Got decent mpg, even after I added a Direct Connection .430" lift cam (260 degree, 113 LSA) and a '72 Fury I 400HP police interceptor Thermoquad and intake manifold assembly complete (NO EGR!!!). Should have kept it, my plan was to add dual exhaust and 3.23 gears, but it was rusty (not real bad) under the vinyl top and in the lower quarters. I miss that car!!
I had a bad ass sixty six Plymouth with a 383/4 speed and it was impressive,it would lay you back in the seat!!!!!!!

Don't "play with him," avoid him at ALL costs! He just hates ALL Mo Pars and wants to harass and bully anyone who owned these classics and had any positive experiences owning ANY of them.

Have a look at 2.12, then Google Dodge Phoenix. The 1969-1971 Plymouth Fury was assembled and sold by Chrysler Australia as the Dodge Phoenix.
first car wish i still had it.
Sadly im old enough to remember these old boats, but I gotta say I enjoy them!
Had a 71 Plymouth Fury III with 360 in high school. It was old and tired when I got it. Didn't last long.
Beautiful car, elegant styling.
I so wish I could find a 70s fury that I could afford . My dad always had Chryslers in the 70s and I adored them.
OK, I am not a big Chrysler fan, I admit it. But, I did drive fir a few years a Plymouth Belvedere wagon. The front end on that car was a constant maintenance thing and it seemed cheap. But, the torsion bar ride was phenomenal. No dive and it never bottomed out. I wish all manufacturers had torsion bars.

senorkaboom ,You do not mention the model year of that Belvedere Wagon. All, I Can say is the suspension design and materials improved with each passing year until discontinued production in the last Plymouth Gran Fury/ Dodge Diplomat/ Chrysler Fifth Avenue M Body Platform built in 1993. My 1973 Imperial Lebaron 4 Dr never gave me any problems right up to the day I traded it in with 276,000 miles for a 1984 Dodge 300 ES Sedan. I really miss that Imperial. I never should have traded it in.
Tons of fun.
Bring these cars back
The Apex of Plymouth
The GT wouldve been sexier with a 4- speed manual trans option. The sedan looked like the Chrysler Imperial.
ok. Das hat mich überzeugt. Ist gekauft!
Turn the Fury into a rocket ship with the 225 cubic inch slant 6.
Plymouth, like Studebaker, was way ahead of it's time. Headlight wipers pre-dated Mercedes & EVAP systems in 1971? Both marques now sadly gone.
@straightpipediesel

Headlight washers actually came from Scandinavia, where they were required by law in 1972, and spread to the rest of Europe. European lights were dimmer and when combined with snow and dirty roads, it became a necessity to wash them.
Strange how the size and horse power went up just before the oil embargo.
oh plymouth vintage luxury
What differentiated Chrysler models as more upscale from the Plymouth Sport Fury (equivalent to Chevrolet Caprice)? A Buick Electra 225 was much more luxurious than the 71 Chevrolet Caprice. Any car experts know the answer?
Love my Chrysler 300 1971...........Ya Baby! The largest cars ever made.....wide and long.....suck on this Cadillac!
Just have a -69 Fury3! Maybe I should change?
Yea they were a boat, but a very manageable boat! I owned a 1970 Fury I Wagon that was a Fire Chiefs personal on/off duty car. That was spect out as a State Police Interceptor with heavy duty suspension, brakes (power front disk), with the High Performance 440 Super Commando 370 hp and HD Torque Flite with the same 3:23 Posi rear. That was in 1974, while stationed at Ft. Carson CO, that I bought off a car lot that specialized in municipal sales. Later on in life, like in the early 80’s a good friend had a 1971 Fury III Sport Coupe, not a GT, but fairly fast anyways. That had a 440 4 brl Dual Exhaust with HD Torque Flite and a former owner installed 3:55 posi, cause he used that car to haul a good sized, 5,000 lbs boat that hated pickups. My friend was a Underwater Demolition Diver, that lived the huge trunk an air shocks that could hold at least 1,000 lbs of tanks a diving equipment! He was even able to fit his 12’ Zodiac Inflatable Raft and 35 HP Chrysler Outboard Motor, gas tank and all his diving equipment for a weekend, in the huge truck and still have room in the car for a cooler an two friends! That car was the BOMB as we all affectionately called it. He ran that car for 4 years, till the rust from salt water dod its best to ruin a good car, after putting all the salt water diving equipment and raft in the truck after a days fun.
I had a 1972 police special with a built 360 engine. Very nice car till going home one one on Hwy 10 towards Ellensburg a bif four point buck deer jumped over the Jersey wall along the river and right in front of me. Pretty much wrecked the car. Sold it for parts.
I had a 2 door 71 with 360 engine. I was using as my every day car till one day it started overheating. I spent a fortune trying to fix it, but no such luck.

Late 60s and early 70s Furys and Newports were really kind of "dark" looking cars. In fact, in the television series incarnation of "Batman", the Batmobile was an heavily modified 1966 Chrysler Newport.

Or should I say IF. The car is privately owned and it is moved around. It isn't always at Universal Studios. And when you see it in person, you can kind of see the Newport buried under there, if you know what a 1966 Newport convertible looks like.

Detroit's last gasp before the plummet downward of the entire U.S. auto industry. When maintained properly, those cars were big, quiet, comfortable and reliable. The torque flight transmissions were bullet-proof and the high performance engines were quick and capable of nearly 150 miles per hour. Only because of the mismanagement of government and the strangle hold of the auto unions did we see an American company be eaten away and destroyed from both within and from outside by antiAmerican forces.
