Not sure what to write here so I'll copy the format from a few before me to keep it simple.


Name: Steve
Model: Plymouth Sport Fury
Year:63
Colour: Blue
Bodykit: Standard - dont think they had such a critter in 1963 :mellow:
Engine Type: 426
Engine Mods: More than people suspect but not enough to convince me I'm done <_<
Power: Not too bad for a brick
Exhaust: Block huggers with old school twin system and period exhaust dumpers
Gearbox: 65 727 reverse manual valve body with 3.5 dominator stall
Diff: 8 3/4 C body 741 case with 4.11 locked gears
Brakes: disc conversion with 11 inch drums on the rear
Suspension: superstock springs and drag shocks. Standard torsion bar front with mopar performance bars. Chassis connectors and other stuff thats not sposed to be there.
Wheels: Period 60's dixie wheels. 7's on the front and screwed 10's on the back with MT rubber
Interior: soothing blue vinyl with matching glovebox lid

Trivia - only known registered 63 plymouth in Aus and one of 2 known to be here. I imported this gal from California in 2008 - the other is Ramcharger in Perth, which cleaned up the first Australian drag nationals in 1965 (and is still on the strip today - a true piece of history)
