Hi Josh, Congratulations on your purchase! Your low mileage Fury, 38,000 original miles I believe, is genuine! It will also be an adder to our Registry which is always good news. Your VIN and Body # are "matching", so that pretty much assures you do have a good old survivor. The other number the GFS is interested in, is the motor number. You can find that on the front of the block, driver's side, right below where the head mates to the block. You'll probably need a lot of degreaser to clean up the area to find it. When you do, let me know what you find. That number, in conjunction with the VIN & Body #, will let you know if it is the original motor (given the low miles, it probably is). Now you have to join up with us in the Golden Fin Society. Only $15 a year and that includes six issues of the newsletter. If you had the latest newsletter, you would note there is a GFSer in Southern California, Bob Garman, also a '56 owner, who has some "gold" and stainless for sale - hopefully he has some for that left front fender. Send him an email at: thehotrodders@xxxxxxxxxxx >From your email addy, are you located in SoCal as well? Regarding joining up, email me privately at reatawhippets@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Your car is the 129th '56 Plymouth Fury to be entered on our Registry with VIN/Body # info of the 4485 produced. Your car was # 1708 of the 4485 produced, an earlier model. Congratulations again!
