You don't know, Walter? You seem to know the answer to everything else!

Hmm. Well, we were in a handicapped spot. Perhaps they towed it.

I think the crack about the car settling was about an half-assed-fake-police AMC Matador driven by Alan Hale in Giant Spider Invasion (I assume it's a Matador; all the vehicles in that movie were AMC's, because the credits thanked AMC, and the movie was made in Wisconsin).

If you're wondering, I have no friends.

Damnit! Money shall be spent! Spouse will be angered! Friends will be confounded! Between these and my '69-'70 Coronet lust, an old weird Mopar will be in my future. Luckily they're big enough to live in...

My brother's '73 Fury III had the police package because it had been a company car (our Dad's employer), and the company just wanted heavy-duty everything on it. It was a dark-blue four-door hardtop, not sedan, with carpet, brocade upholstery, and fake wood on the dash.

The a/c cutoff switch was a plain old toggle switch mounted low on the dash, with a plaque glued next to it advising cutting out the compressor during pursuits over 90 mph, IIRC.

Now, if you want something in the low price field, you're left with a tinny Korean penalty box. I wounder if things would have worked out differently if they had built a new Fury instead of the Breeze.

You'll see a message spelled in burned rubber on the road that says
POLAR's hangin' with the... JALOPS! JALOPS yeah
I'm headin' down the JALOPNIK highway,
lookin' for the HOON getaway
Heading for the HOON getaway,
I got me a FURY, it's as big as a whale
and we're headin' on down
To JALOPNIK
I got me a Plymouth, it seats about 20
So get ready for a laugh 'cause it's always funny

JALOPNIK is a little old place
where we can hoon together
JALOPS baby, JALOPNIK bay-bee.
JALOPS baby, JALOPNIK'S where it's at,
Ooo JALOPS baby, JALOPNIK's where it's at.

I did like the rubber carpeting and "Everything Delete" dash package, though.

The wreck we got was a '72 Plymouth Fury III, just like this, but in baby-poo brown. My mom was seriously embarrassed to be seen it it. She was even more embarrassed when she found out the lock cylinder on the trunk lid was missing and my dad had to stick his finger in the hole to open it.

I remember we drove it to the Wild Animal Park on a warm day and the A/C was not working. To make things even worse, when my dad shut off the engine, it ran on for a few minutes, bucking and kicking the whole time.

So yeah, needless to say I don't have fond memories of this car. Unlike the turbo Lebaron convertible my dad rented in Maui which he used to fly around the mountain roads, much to the chagrin of my mom (but I loved it!).

Driving down those city streets,
Waiting to get down,
Won't you get your beige machine,
Somewhere in this town?

Now in the parking lot garage,
You'll find the proper place,
Just follow all the written rules,
You'll fit into the space.

Pull up to my bumper baby,
In your long beige limosine,
Pull up to my bumper baby,
And drive it in between.

Pull up, to it, don't drive, through it,
Back it, up twice, now that, fit's nice.

Operate around the clock,
Why don't you come in?
I've got lot's of space for everyone,
Why don't you my friend?

I'll pick you up so won't you please come on,
Shiny sleek machine believe,
It I've got to blow your horn.

Pull up to my bumper baby,
In your long beige limosine,
Pull up to my bumper baby,
And drive it in between.

Pull up to it, don't drive through it,
Back it, up twice, now that fits nice,
Race it, straighten it, let me lubricate,
Pull up to my bumper baby

I am aware that all I've done is substitute the word Black for the word Beige, the rest was already....well....right.

You still win.

Always loved these "Fuselage" era Chryslers, and actually bought a 72 Polara (since sold off). The sound of the Chrysler Gear reduction starter (with it's high pitch whinny) is just icing on the cake!

[SIR POL-A-LOT]:....

I like big Fury's
And i can not lie
you other brothers can't deny
That when a Fury drives in
It lacks such taste
and its looks are in your face
you get sprung,
want to pull out your tongue
'cause you notice the butt
was stuffed
Deep in the sheet metal she's wearing
I'm hooked and I can't
stop staring
Oh Fury, I want to get in ya
and take your picture
My Jalops tried to warn me
but with that butt you got
makes me wanna beep horny
Ooh, Rump-o'-smooth-bends
you say you want to get in my hands?
Well, use me, use me,
'Cause you ain't got average groupy
I've seen that suspension dancin'
The hell with romancin'
She's sweat, wet,
Don't need to be going like a turbo 'Vette
I'm tired of magazines
Sayin' small butts are the thing
Take the average Jalop man
ask him that.
She gotta pack much back
So, fellas! (yeah) Fellas!(yeah!)
your wagons and camino's got the butt?
(Hell Yeah!)
Tell 'em to shake it!
(shake it!)
Shake it!
(shake it!)
Shake those handy, fill-able butts!
Fury got back!

Fury got back!

I like 'em square, and big
and pack you up when I'm throwing gig
I just can't help myself, I'm actin' like an animal
Now here's my scandal
I wanna get you home
And ugh, double-up, ugh, ugh
I ain't talkin' bout Civics

'Cause silicone parts
are made for toys
I want 'em real thick and juicy
So find that juicy double
This Jalop's in trouble
Beggin' for a piece of that Fury
'cause I ain't in no hurry
Small trunk econos
Can't touch what she holds
You can have them minivans
I'll keep my cars like Flo Jo
A word to the thick DOTS,
I wanna get with ya
I won't let other cars hit ya
But I gotta be straight when I say I wanna
Cruise Till the break of dawn
Baby got it goin' on
A lot of Jalops may not like this song
'Cause them punks like to
hit it and quit it
And I'd rather stay and play
'Cause the Fury's long, and I'm strong
And I'm down to get the friction on
So, ladies! {Yeah!}
Ladies! {Yeah}
If you wanna role in my Fury {Yeah!}
Then turn around! Stick it out!
'cause this white boy's got to shout
Fury got back!

Fury got back!

One of the last things I ever did with my grandfather was take him for a ride in that car. Damn, I wish I had kept Plymouth. Shucks.

And Fury is probably the best model-name ever. Summons up images of fire, brimstone and violence.

Jet fighters have always had violent-sounding names. Skyray is far more warlike than Sunray.... Eagle is so much more warlike than Pigeon.

When we go to war with British Aerospace Bunnyrabbit fighters we'll be laughed off the face of the planet.

I agree that the '72 had the better grille, but both of them had fat hips.
