1977 Plymouth Fury

[Chuck Most]

Last week I made my monthly/twice monthly run to Dean's Hobby Stop, and nabbed three MPC Dukes Dodge Monaco kits off the clearance table. Two were started but mostly complete. The third had the body, interior, and chassis painted, engine assembled, and included a Fury grille and resin full wheel covers. All I did was a little foiling and detail painting and finish it. The kit also had the Yodel tail lights. I thought they looked awful so I robbed the tail lights from one of the other MPC kits and detailed them. Is it just me or do the taillights in the MPC Monaco look more like Fury taillights anyway? The engine might be from a '71 Duster, with a resin automatic transmission behind it. The kit also had a 1966 Michigan plate that disintegrated the second it touched water. I had the Tomkinson Chrysler-Plymouth dealer plate, so I robbed a current Indiana plate from the MPC '86 El Camino for the back to use. After being unhappy with painted narrow whitewalls, I left the tires black. Finally, I stole the side view mirror from a Foose Cadillac of all things. 

So... Mr or Mrs MPC Monaco collector... if you're out there reading this... your Fury is finished.

I'm actively hunting for a 1:1 wagon version. I learned to drive in one, and now need a project.
