I LOVE this thing! All the ones I've ever seen were all green or silver with burgundy interior, the triple black looks GREAT.

Is the price that far off for the condition and it being a big block (400, but still......)?

As clean as it looks, I'd still want to look closely at the underside being a PA car.

From the ad:

"1974 Plymouth Fury "Gran Coupe" package. 59k original miles. Factory triple black. An incredible unrestored survivor that is amazing throughout.
Very clean and garaged since new. Zero wintertime use ever. Original paint in very good condition but not perfect. Factory painted pinstripes.
400 engine, automatic, excellent interior, the seats feel like they've never been sat in. Vinyl top is perfect, excellent chrome and trim.
New whitewall tires, all new brakes including OEM master cylinder, calipers, pads, etc. The gas tank was cleaned out.
Runs and drives excellent, must see to believe. Asking $15,800 or close offer. Located outside of New Castle, PA."

I saw that on a google search the other night looking up a part. Looks nice and I really like the seat setup.

Not sure I’ve seen one for sale before. Probably not bad for a turn key big block car with all the bells. I’d drive that. Would be better than a lot of stuff I see at cars and coffee.

Ask for close ups at the wheel well edges. Looks like there might be a problem on a couple and that’d be a deal breaker for me at 15k. Certain point like 8k you’d just live with it and drive it and keep it dry.


I want my fair share

That's really nice, but I can't see almost $16k for that, assuming the condition is as-described. I think $10k is all the money, and even then it would need to be an "I have to have THAT car" buyer.

Agree about the seating arrangement. I like the interior overall too.

I was gunna post this myself. Sharp and I don't care for C bodies. Make time to go look at it. Offer him $10k. What could it hurt? shruggy

Seems to me that a nice, clean, original, low-mileage car will cost about $15,000 minimum nowadays.
They're not falling out of the trees, y'know.
Sure, there are exceptions, but for what most folks consider desirable, it can take double that for a lot of cars.
My recollections of most cars I saw around Philly when I lived back there 2000-2002 are nowhere near as nice as this car appears to be.

I love these C bodies. Maybe I'm stuck in "the old days" but it seems to me this is around an $8k car. It does appear to be a nice unmolested original and I'm glad to see no Class III hitch grin

The engine bay looks way more used and aged than the rest of the car. I would want to see the undercarriage. twocents

Yeah, not bad rust, but there are enough rusty surfaces under hood that make me question how it was (and is) being stored. Seller claims a 'new OEM master cylinder' but the one seen looks pretty rusty for 'new OEM', unless the pic was taken before the brake work? work shruggy
