Ratty 1964 Plymouth Fury Daily Driver Upgrades! New Gears, Brakes, Wheels And Tires, And More

[@scottyp.5243]

There is a car club in Plymouth, Rebels and rods, they put on a car show every Sunday morning in Plymouth down by the Water by the Mayflower , Plymouth Rock area. When you end up there with your road trip please come by! Every Sunday morning from 7 to 10 a.m.

[@deaddodgebrother]

That sounds awesome! I'm adding it to our itinerary and we will show up if possible.

[@deaddodgebrother]

We're coming this Sunday! Hope to see you there. 😎

[@j2kinflarc768]

That Fury is way better than my 67 I owned as my 2nd car back in the late eighties. What an absolute land yacht. 318 actually moved it pretty decent. You could fit 4 people in the trunk and 4-5 people could lay out on the hood.

[@jlsracing997]

We drove to Sedalia, Mo. a few years back to see the total eclipse. It was awesome, but we didn't have a way cool 64 4spd. sure grip Fury. This will be a great trip for you. Looking forward to the video.

[@magnetocheck]

Your videos are so informative. Let's us all know how much we can get away with and still have a car that works! (more or less) 😆 Love the old Mopars - first car was a '69 Coronet - made most of my mistakes on that one! Also nice to see you HotDog involved. -- great memories with Dad. Also, : "You want to go for a ride in the Fury?" "Sure!". Proof you married the right gal!

[@DeadDodgeGarage]

One small correction, Colin and Ben aren’t married. They’re good friends and co-parents. Otherwise, yes - that.

[@brentforte5950]

Great video Colin Manuals for life.

[@roywhitman7109]

Always liked that body style!👍

[@richardtomasek]

That body was carried over in 65 to the Belvedere line with the Satellite being the top dog. My dad bought a brand new 65 Satellite in 65. That car had a 318, AT, PS, and a radio. Gold with black interior. That car always ran well. Not having a garage, the car rusted badly and he bought a new 73 Satellite 4 door, again the 318, AT, PS, PB, and finally AC. Again, a fine car.

[@Bradydog-in7ut]

My father’s 64 New Yorker use to eat starters for lunch. They always seem to crap the bed during a New England snow storm. I have warm feelings of learning new profanities as dad’s wrench would slip and he’d bust his knuckles. He reminded that Santa does not show up at kids houses that rat daddy’s out to mommy’s!

Haaaahaha. That’s some quality family history!

I’m late to the party on this one but this is amazing Plymouth! The 64s are so stinking cool and yours looks great. Can’t wait to see this get transformed for your cross country, solar eclipse extravaganza!👍🏼🏁🔥🇺🇸

[@tonyb3864]

That rear diff lube is the nastiest smelling shit ever. And you didn't say how you liked the new gears man. Hot dog and you did a great job!

[@deaddodgebrother]

I've been gentle on them so far while breaking them in, but they made a big difference. They put some pep in the 318s step. I like them!

[@staceyrenner5418]

Yup, that thing is cool.

[@patrickwayne3701]

I still have my Dad's 64 Polara that went on family vacations in 83 and 84 to Florida and Michigan. It's white with red guts 318 Poly and pushbutton. These are fabulous and beautiful cars. Love them all.

[@prorebuilder]

Excellent Video. I have a 64 Polara that I have been collecting parts and plan to start the restoration this spring. May I ask some questions. 1-the rear end has the nut style on the drums. What rear end do you recommend? I plan to use the K-ember from Satellite with disc brakes. I will be following this build Thank-you

[@DeadDodgeGarage]

A later B body rear end is a perfect fit - at least 65-67. I think the width changed for ‘68-70 B body - and it absolutely changed for ‘71+. So I’d look for that first option. What year K member? The engine positioning is slightly different on later cars, and that could get interesting.

[@deaddodgebrother]

I actually had a scene talking about the rear end in this car that I ended up cutting. I measured the housing and the axle shafts and the rear in this car does appear to be the 65-7 b body width, which bolts right in.

[@prorebuilder]

@@DeadDodgeGarage Thank-you

[@steveash9831]

The Fury is very cool for many reasons. One being that it is not green! I'm sure that you guys know by now that I compose all of my comments with "LOVE". I love you guys! So here I go! I learned an awful lot from this "How not to video". I flinched and winced so many times that my face is sore now. I laughed a lot, but not at you... well. I have complete faith that you will make it to Plymouth in the Plymouth. I think it is downhill most of the way. However, I have my doubts about you making it back home. Did I mention that I love you guys???

[@DeadDodgeGarage]

Haaaahaha. Yes, you mentioned that… this one time Colin drove his Duster about that same distance, and while it did make it back… success was far from guaranteed, and it cost a clutch, a radiator, and some piston rings.

[@artlife6210]

Always loved this body, that sharp wedge rear pillar and cool grille, with a trusty old school 318 you could not kill it if you tried!😎

[@topperthompson580]

I had a 69 Charger 440 4 speed with a Quick change rear. After 145 mph the car fully extended! I'd push past 150 to about 165 mph! Bring it back down under 145 and you felt you might still live!!!

[@DeadDodgeGarage]

I’ve been almost that fast in an R/T Charger… it felt absolutely terrifying

Nice job, little jobs at a time. You can't do everything at once and if you try, cars seem to get taken apart and never put back together.

I love that you want to go to the eclipse. I wish I could talk you into avoiding the Plymouth-in-a-Plymouth angle and go to Texas where clouds are going to be less of a concern. I went to Charleston SC in 2017 and barely avoided a lightning storm to see it. The next one in the Continental us is in 2052

[@deaddodgebrother]

We're starting the trip by heading South for the Eclipse! Heading for Missouri, but will adjust course based on weather. Dead Dodge Mom wants to avoid Texas if possible, I'm not ruling anything out at this time!

[@michaelnault5905]

It finally dawned on me. Some of the struggle is caused by trying to film. I'm slow but steady. Good you had expert help :⁠-⁠)

My favorite thing about this car... besides being a mopar, is, it's still got it's hood ornament! How is that even possible? Hotdog is a waaay better pit crew man (tire put'r on'r, than he is a cameraman!😂😂😂 One day!

That Fury is very cool ! Roadkill garage had a very cool sweptline old D100 u guys would like, Frieberger and Dulcich got it going with a 318 big block I always pass on the drilled and slotted rotors too, to me doesn’t make sense to remove material from them on purpose

[@487joe]

Bought a new 64 Sport Fury and it had a 426 but I stepped on the gas to hard when testing. Dad said we don't need that mush power. Got the 318 and loved it. Great video.

I just installed the same kit!

[@OdySlim]

Hey there Colin. Nice car. Its really nice. Did you mention the drivetrain? Regards from Ody Slim

We discussed the smoky drivetrain in the first video on the car. It will soon be swapped for a nice roller/Magnum 360, but it is currently a worn out roller 318. Transmission is an 833 overdrive.

I think Id get a coupla white spray cans and paint of that rust till you get time to fix it right. It ll look better goin down the road! Lol!
