1965 Plymouth Fury Pace Car - Setting the Pace

The days of giant, two-ton, massive land yachts were less than thirty years ago. Back then, the roads and highways were peppered with New Yorkers, Lincolns, Cadillacs, Impalas, Crown Vics, and Imperials coasting up and down the lanes, drifting on spongy suspension and boasting more interior room than most apartments in San Francisco. Now these cars are usually driven by little blue-haired ladies hardly able to see over the six-foot-wide dashboard, or they are packed with sufficient bass-thumping sound equipment to make most night clubs green with envy. But back in their day, today's hoopdees were regal, proud, and classic. Furys, Continentals, and Fleetwoods were opulent limousines for the everyman; the car families poured out of on Sunday mornings in church parking lots; the car teenagers would borrow from their parents; and sometimes, the car where the baby-boomer generation was conceived; the car that spawned cruising. For Mopar fans, these are our C-Bodies.
