In the late '70s, I had a '65 Plymouth Fury III station wagon with a 383 two barrel carb. Paid $250 for the car. Got about 30 miles to the quart of oil, yet it passed a California smog test and had very ample power. New rings, bearings, timing chain and valve job later and oil consumption problem was licked. Handling was great for a large, heavy car. Personal best MPG on the freeway was about 18 MPG. Usually around 15. Wish I had kept it. Re gas tanks...the Plymouth Wagon had only a 20 gallon tank. My wife's '67 Impala had a 26 gallon tank.

My dad bought a Fury III four-door sedan new in 1965. I remember the clear plastic seat covers, which got molten-hot in summer. I also remember the over-boosted power steering, which allowed you to spin the wheel with one finger. Don't know that my dad ever mentioned what it had in it but I assume it was a 318 - too small to make it very interesting. It was a competent people-hauler but the '65 Chevy design seems to have stood the test of time far better than the Plymouth.

That little Plymouth 318 V8 standard V8 will beat the pants off the optional Chevy 327 V8 coming from a dead stop. I'm not guessing either, I lived it. Two reasons would be the far superior Chrysler automatic transmission, and the Plymouth's lighter weight unibody.

The gas tanks they put in vehicles can depend on what they had available. My folks new 1965 Fury III 2 door had a 26 gallon tank.. probaby what the station wagon had.. In the non self serve gas station days the attendents would stop filling at 18 to 20 and start to look under the car.. lol One time visting my folks ran the car out of gas. I was so use to knowing you could go to E and still drive many miles. They had a new alternator and its voltage was slightly different so the gas guage read slightly different. So i actual put 1 gallon gas with a can and another 25 and slightly more when at a gas station Our car had a factory recall on its piston rings.. under the 5 year 50k warranty. The engine with rings lasted to about 180k and folks had it rebuilt and sold it at about 260k.

speaking from experience.........if you ordered the Fury 1 with the 383 Golden Commando and 3 speed transmission (we can only suspect that Chrysler engineers toyed with ours before delivery) then you purchased a freak beast. I watched my dad at Detroit Dragway during test and Tune, run the 1/4 mile in 13:01. No exaggerations. I watched him whoop 396 Chevelles and Olds 442's viciously! Then the day came when he stumbled upon a 1969 Plymouth Baracuda with a 426 Hemi.........well.......can't win 'em all.

That extra five gallons would have come in handy to make up for the extra fuel consumed by those extra horses under the hood. Also no mention of the curb weight of these two cars. If the Fury was heavier that would make the extra fuel capacity - and extra horsepower - even more important. My dad almost exclusively drove Chrysler products throughout the mid sixties through early 70s. Torsion bar failures were common, as was rust. The GM products seemed to fare better.

Black fabric and vinyl seating and every option from the wood dash to the am radio with the rear speaker. There were no power windows, which was good. But it did have a really cool steering wheel power steering and power breaks.Tinted glass. I don't remember whether it was the green or the blue. Chrome mirrors and those cool bumpers, even if they were multi parts, black dual pinstripes front to the back and hand painted. Whiteside wall tires. I'm pretty sure it had a clock. Bench seat no arm rest. Wood tone or real wood doors and dash. It's just a beautiful car truly beautiful. I don't care what Plymouth did. They just couldn't match that two door caprice. On the other side, my grandfather had a chrysler station wagon. They had everything 383, 4 barrel. Unbelievable seating with power up-and-down - back and forth seats. Power windows, power steering power brakes, tinted glass, power door locks, and roof rack. I think I dual tailgate. That green that I never liked and the green interior. I'm pretty sure the rear tailgate window went up and down by the key. I got it it was fast. It had that inside curved side totally straight with chrome. Heck, I even think it had a tilt wheel. Speakers are everywhere, but I don't remember what the sound was like. It wasn't really pretty, but it wasn't ugly either. But for a station wagon, it is very functional, very quick, good handling, and big. It may even have had a 440 in it or a hemi I don't know. Well, I was only eleven, so that's most of my memory.

Sorry. You lost at the beginning with styling. And then bragging about leaf springs. Whew. Then the immortal 283 against the 318 Poly. It was so good that Chrysler completely redesigned it in 1967. Plymouth was a very fine car, but this comparison did not hold up. They were bragging about the extra room as a result of their boxy styling. I watched another video when Ford did a 1960 comparison with Chevy. They even bragged about having a manual choke which could increase your mpg's as long as you remembered to adjust it. Let's compare the sales record. almost 50,000 units for the Furys and 2.300,000 plus for the Chevys.

You mean they were 4 years ahead! First cars to have electronic ignition 3 years ahead of GM/Ford! Chrysler came out with car computers in 1976 way before GM/Ford.Ditto with Fuel Injection ,Bosch fuel injection is a Chrysler invention, Chrysler sold it to Bosch!! Uni Body cars Chrysler came out with it in 1934 with the highly advanced Airlfow,before Ford/GM everybody has that today! GM/Ford were mid 1960's!! Dodge first 4wd trucks in the 1930's! Ford/GM in the 50's used a aftermarket conversion company to convert their 2wd into 4wd! Dodge first 4 door trucks and extended cab trucks! 1951 Chrysler made the most powerful engine around! 180 hp HEMI vs 100 hp Ford flat head V8 and Cadillac's 135 hp V8! GM/Ford/Toyota all use a Chrysler Hemi n Top Fuel,Top Alcohol drag racing,ditto truck tractor pulling Chrysler Hemi.. Many more advances..too many to list!!! Current Diesel truck wars started by Chrysler in 1989! How about 700 plus hp cars for the average working man,well Hellcat Mopars rule! Remember Chrysler Imperial was more luxurious than Cadillac and Lincoln..Imperial was the most expensive car even more expensive than a Rolls Royce!! thus lower sales..They cost 1/4 or more more!! They were praised all the time! Sure gm/Ford made advances but less than Chrysler! Chrysler's engineering and electronics were far superior... Forgot about Airplanes,Boats,SnoCats that Chrysler also made...I had a Chrysler Snow Runner as a kid in the late 70's early 80's.. How about Dodge Plow package on trucks,first one to do so...They also have many electronic and engineering firsts that are mind blowing..

The 65 Chevys were totally new compared to the 64s. They were similar until 69.

Soooo much better! Fury is better value and redesigned and all but I would still take the Impala over fury any day of the week, and give me a 4 speed on the floor!

@@BillyBob-ip9uy I hear that Mopar construction quality went down the toilet in the 50's. I'm sure the Bowtie was better-built.

Yeah I agree, I like the big 3 but this body style fury was not that great, although 64s looked much better imo, but nothing beats the impalas of any year! Ford and Chevy knew what they were doing by making a long term impact. Dodge only did great in that department with there muscle cars. But they seem so cheap

"Chevrolet has made some styling changes, but nothing drastic or startling." What were they smoking? For 65 it was a completely different car.

Love them both, but had to laugh about the front bumper. On the Plymouth it is one piece, but the hood and top headlight stick out further and have no protection from the bumper.

Except the engine was worse and the box styling was so old looking. Imagine buying a car based on being able to use a gas can? Selling to renecks who don’t know they need to stop at a gas station…. Selling to idiots
