Here is my love at first sight, it has traveled across Canada several times, I have created all its history, bought from the last owner who had it for the last 38 years, I consider myself lucky to have managed to get my hands on it, I have one. nice chance to give it a 2nd life with my family and good friends, unfortunately stopped for 10 years it will need love rolled for as it did at the time with more than 124,000 miles on the dash, 1968 Plymouth Fury 3, 318 v8, 5.2 liters, 230 hp / 340 torque: *** Of course it is not the most sought after of antique cars but this luxury muscle car (XL) is not a model that we see every day, it's very different and it will be quite a challenge to find the necessary parts to make it functional again but I'm ready to take up the challenge I think it's going to be a great adventure!

I love that body style, and I love the "fast top".

Bonus points for trailer hitch.
 
Neat story! Post up some old pictures of it since you’ve got the history!
 
The car is from a little area called Cabri , Saskatchewan , discovered that the second owner brought it to Seatle and he was a us soldier that was draft to go to vietnam he had to sell the car to a friend who was in the Yukon ( whitehorse canada) after a few trips to alaska , the car went to a new home and its final one for the last 38 years...it was sitting in Montreal , the last owner took it a couple of times with his sons to travel to his second residence that was in Whitehorse , its very very far from Montreal ! The car as 124 000 miles and it as a 318 from a 72 scamp , i have some repair bills and all the insurance papers from all the last 3 owners , even its liscense plate from its last trip to yukon in 2000 , it has a trailer hitch and a bunch of leaf springs , the last owner told me that he was towing stuff and traveled Canada with it he did it 2-3 times , the car was a freakin highway machine, traveled a lot ! Not perfect in any way but a car that is all original in 2023 even if it looks ratty is a survivor from all the ups amd downs of the last eras, Theres life left in this car !
 
Its not much , its not a 440-6 pack car , its not a hemicuda , theres something about that car , i think that with some TLC it can be a nice and reliable car again , not a race car by any mean, just a goodold 318 / 727 / 8 3/4 and a suregrip 2.76 from factory

Hahahahaha, lots of land yacht jokes in your future!
I love cruisin in the C bodies.
Build it your way and enjoy.
I love the Yukon plate!
Keep that on the car!
Sure you will but send more pics after you get those wheels on there.
Lovin it!
 
I had a similar car....1967 sport fury fastop 383 2 barrel carb. Yours has lots of history and is way cool in my opinion. Don't worry about it not being a cuda or charger or whatever cause people who know will stop and chat about similar vehicles they had or own and just like children we love em all even if they give us some trouble. Good luck with it.
