Just took a few pics of The Fury, my insurance company needs them for the "agreed value" I asked for if something happens to it. Tomorrow I'll start cleaning the interior since we're getting a little break in the heat here. Gojo hand cleaner gets good reviews for cleaning vinyl. And clean the whitewalls, the tires were bought new in May; I don't know how they got so dirty looking. Simple Green is what people recommend since other products can harm the rubber and I don't want it to start cracking later.

By the way the kick panels are in the trunk, one is fine, the other has been poorly cut out for a speaker but it's still usable.

nice Dave!!! white wall or white letters on a tire - Soft Scrub and a finger nail brush..
 
Oh, one project that should be a learning curve is to fix the windows. They have a pretty steep curve and all of them have something busted in the mechanism. I went to crack a rear window and boom it went almost all the way down. I learned a trick from a friend, two suction dent-pullers applied to the inside glass and resting on the window sill. At first they wouldn't stay but then I cleaned them well and they are holding. Not pretty but they hold the window up so rain and critters stay out.

definitely get an FSM if you can - the window mechanisms in these things are goofy -- hopefully they are just off the tracks..
 
Cool...thanks, Mike. That stuff is great to use around the house too so I'll get some and kill two birds with one stone.

I know!! The Fury is 17' 11" long! I have to be careful of the long hood when I'm turning in tight spaces. I like it though, I remember as a little kid watching Perry Mason reruns I thought those big cars were so cool when they would have to turn around real fast...
