64 Fury

Hi evryone. Just finished watching Overhaulin. Chip foosed a 64 Fury. Does anyone know of someone that casts this body or whole kit in resin?

MCW resin has a '64 Fury based on the original Johan tooling..

The easy-to-find Lindberg '64 Belvedere ht is a good choice for a full detail kit, since the Fury is pretty much same except for some trim differences.

The original issue Johan kit was the only one that was an actual Fury kit.

And afaik, all sudsequent issues were a base line Belvedere hardtop body

Builtup original issues are not to difficult to find , if you really need one with the Fury only side trim . You will be in it at similar costs wise compared to a resin conversion , with less headaches

I just sold one maybe 6 months ago, decent builder with all the side trim intact. I think it had everything it needed to build it . Body had been painted and stripped so it was an easy resto. It barely brought $50

I have about a half dozen of the common Johan versions and decided I didn't need the Fury only one.so away it went . I've seen them on that auction site a couple times and non have brought more than $50-$60 .

By the time you buy a resin body and a Johan doner kit. You will have more than $50 in it plus have to deal with the thicker resin body / glass fitment issues

my 2 cents

This is the body you are looking for.

Model Car World's body is identical, but in resin.

I really wish a one of the photo-etch companies would make the Fury/Sport Fury side trim and scripts. I have several Johan 64 Plymouths that I would like to turn into replicas of my 1:1 Sport Fury.

I was just reading MCW's description.

There '64 is a 90%-complete kit. Add wheels/tires/engine, which suggests to me that it's a re-creation of the entire Jo-Han kit, at least the critical components.
