Plymouth Fury. Also Plymouth Belvedere and Savoy for some shots.

I actually had a 58 Plymouth Belvedere for about a year - drove it all around and loved to see the valet get frustrated and finally get out of the car to ask how to get it into gear

(push-button transmission on dash looked like an AM radio) RND21 (no P)

Lol. Nice. I’m building a 59 galaxie with a 76 FE 390.

Had a 76 Ford 100 needed a new motor. It had a 360 and me and a buddy rebuilt a 390 from a junk yard that came out of a mustang and put it the truck. Aluminum intake, headers, 2 barrel Holley all with a truck 4 speed. That truck ran great after that. Had it up to 120 with peddle left. It was my first truck.

Nice. That’s a nice first truck. My first was a 87 5.0. Was fun, but I wanted something older.

Whoa, whoa. You better watch what you say about my car. She's real sensitive.

I recently bought a ‘57 Oldsmobile that has a similar color scheme and needed sone minor mechanical refurbishment. This car fought me every step of the way and still is not completely finished but I joked with my dad that she was like Christine, just bitchy instead of evil.

In that spirit, she was eventually named Courtney. 😂

Arnie will take. Just needs to deal with a few cuts from some glass first.

She had the smell of a brand-new car. That's just about the finest smell in the world, 'cept maybe for p*ssy.

I absolutely LOVE the comments. Those that know, brilliant comments. Those that don't know, still sweet and brilliant comments, they just have no idea they just fell in love with Christine.

I was about to quit Reddit if there were no responses about Christine. Didn't let me down at all :)

It would make a great family car, as long as she likes your family.

t1_itxqqcj wrote

I'd take her home. She's VERY protective of her owner/driver. Now that's dedication.

That car would look awesome with a fan on the back. If I knew anything about cars, I would take it.

And just like that, I’m 8 again. Can’t believe I still knew the lyrics. sigh

I didn't remember the words, but that tune came right back. And the leg warmers. Weird trend in children's animation, that whole bit.

Buying a car like this and restoring it is literally my dream...

How much is a 58 Plymouth worth?

1958 Plymouth Fury Worth In 2022

The 1958 Plymouth Fury is a rarity in the used car space owing to its very low production numbers. Rarely do these pop-ups, and the asking price showcases this car's fame. The movie cars have been a raging investment estimated at around $400,000-$500,000 by Mecum.

It starts playing Little Bitty Pretty One by Thurston Harris all by itself whenever someone wants a closer look and they get scared away.

"Her shaft is bent and her rear end leaks, you can fix her quick with an oily rag. Use a nail as a starter; I lost the key. Don't pay no mind to that whirrin' sound. She use a little oil, but outside a' that, she's cherry."

My dad had a 1976 Pontiac. Do you know how hard it was for him to find parts whenever it broke down?

t1_itzyll7 wrote

I know people who have restored much worse. Or as a parts car, the entire bumper, grill, hood emblem, valence, right rear quarter all look very decent. Roof, ride side glass, etc...

I'd take her in a second. I got a list of people to feed her. Only thing is she'd have to throw in some AC/DC Highway To Hell on the radio
