About the Plymouth Fury
The 1966 Plymouth Fury represents the peak of the fourth-generation C-body platform, featuring the iconic vertically stacked quad headlights and a formal, squared-off profile. As a full-size cruiser, it was designed to compete directly with the Ford Galaxie and Chevrolet Impala, offering a robust unibody construction with a front subframe for improved refinement. The 383 cubic-inch 'Commando' V8 provides effortless torque, making it a quintessential long-distance highway machine. While less aggressive than the B-body muscle cars, the Fury's massive presence and smooth TorqueFlite transmission offer a refined take on 1960s American motoring.
