Jo-Han made a large multicolored number of '58 Belvederes, and then modified
the tool for the Fury. I haven't seen one in years, and originals were made
with a grade of plastic that proved prone to serious warpage, so a nice one is
even rarer... ...both versions were produced without interiors, but the dealer
promos had working torsion bars... I'm not on l-forwardlook at this account,
but if you think others there would be interested pass it on.
