If the engine is biult to "Fury Specs" and is stamped properly [ is this not what DCPD did anyway] is it not a Fury engine? They most certainly did not make blocks for just the Fury. Are people trying to say that if it is not the "original " engine that came with the car than the car is worthless!! Than there are alot of "worthless cars" bringing big bucks! As I stated earlier in a post, there were engine changes made under warranty.

Perhap's our obsession with what is correct and not correct, caused the early departure of a so called "Fury" on ebay last week? Don't know if that is true, but we do know the car did not have a Fury VIN. And when called on it for an explanation, the listing closed prematurely. The ebay car was a beautiful car - and nothing wrong with calling it what it is - but representing it as something it isn't is, is wrong. Plain and simple. > > Sounds like Brian's car is all Fury with an interesting history to boot. But, if that car evolves further into another replacement engine, then that is OK too - however, if the replacement engine is an LP8 with an "F" stamped in front of it, and no disclaimer made to future potential buyers, then that is not an honorable effort, regardless of what state laws say about it. And, as keeper of the GFS Registry, and I KNOW about an "F" being applied to a plain old vanilla LP8 block, and have the chance to tell a potential buyer about it, I will do so. > > It is too bad Brian wasn't aware of us before purchasing his '58 Fury - not that he would changed his mind about purchasing his car - I probably would have still purchased it - but at least he would have been assisted, up front, on what his car was all about. In the meanwhile, I am sure he is still proud to own his genuine Fury, one of the neatest, hottest and rarest of cars of all time. > > Regards, > > Jack Lewis > Founder/Editor-Golden Fin Society > '56-'57-'58 Fury Registry > 1956 Plymouth Fury > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] > > > > To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to: > goldenfin-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > > > Your use of Yahoo!
