Ron,
By any chance does it mention the company that made it on the box, or is it
just a Chrysler logo?

Subject: [GFS] FURY GOLD AVAILABLE FOR 4 DOOR 57 -58 PLYMOUTH
Many many years ago the Chrysler-Plymouth Dealership Nissley Motors in
Middletown, Pennsylvania went out of business. I bought some of their NOS
Chrysler
and Plymouth unsold stock. I was super excited to get a whole set, both
sides
of NOS Fury Gold brand new and still in the original shipping package. When
I
checked it later after I bought it, a letter inside the original package
from
Plymouth Division said it was experimental and a future option that would be
available for the 4 door sedan and 4 door hardtop. When I removed it I
noticed 2
extra piece of gold. ( for the additional 2 doors) All my cars are 2 door
hardtops. At one time I was ready to buy a 4 door Plymouth just to make the
"World's First 4 door Fury complete with 2/4s and correct interior." (that
did not
go over too big with my wife) That was many many years ago. Well, I still
have it, still in it's original packing and still with the Plymouth letter
and
it fits on the Belvedere, because Belvederes have the stainless for the top
and
bottom to hold this Fury Gold in place. The corporation Historian told me
that the Plymouth Sales and Marketing Department discontinued this Fury gold
option for 4 door Plymouths because they felt it would hurt the Fury's sales
if it
was ever offered as an option on Belvederes and other lower priced
Plymouths.
He said the Silvertone side trim on the Belvedere had gotten the green light
for production but the Goldtone side trim did not. So they recalled the
first
approx. 8 sets of 4 door Fury gold that was sent to Plymouth Dealers.
The Corporation Historian said that their records showed that all but one
or two sets of the "Goldtone side trim" were returned and destroyed. I have
one
of those sets and sooner than talk about it, if you Email me I will send you
an Email photo of the package, gold and letter!!! Some companies have tried
to
duplicate this gold and it sells for $500 to $900. The set I have is NOS
PLYMOUTH ORIGINAL FACTORY MADE GOLDTONE SIDE TRIM FOR 1957 OR 1958
PLYMOUTH!!!!!
Price $795 Firm
