If anyone have seen plymouth lately and know where it is located, please tell me where it is. In any country! with phone number, address, etc. Maybe they will be able to import it to me. It is such a beautiful car!
Anyway, is it a limited edition car? I've searched info about it in google, and some site said it is limited edition...
Plymouth fury 1958 A.K.A Christine!
I've seen one in need of heavy restoration. Was parked in a lot in Casar North Carolina, USA. I'll be back that way in a few months if you'd like me to try snagging a phone number, but this one needs to be rebuilt from the ground up...
Are'nt the 58's nice? And yes, the fury is a limited edition car.. not that many out there to begin with.. Always eye catching, even before the movie Christine
you made me ink

I'm more partial to the 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado, in black. ;)

You missed the real "Christine", she went up for sale at the Barrett Jackson auction back in '04. I believe it went for a smidge over $150,000-160,000.
I did manage to find this hotrod 58. =)

Bah, gimma flip-flop painted '66 Opal anyday :)
There's a Canadian rag called "The Auto Trader" that has street rods and potential rods for sale all the time. Might want to get a hold of a copy. I'm sure someone from Canada will send you one if you pay for postages and stuffs.
You might also look for some car clubs in your area. If anyone has a line on a restorable car it would be someone there. Go to some swap meets, too. Sometimes they tow in beaters for sale.
Lots of places to look.

There's a 1957 up for sale on eBay. They didn't change the body between '57 and '58. 21 hours to go for auction end:

This has 4.88's and a spare set of 3.23s!!! Thats a big big difference in performance. I bet the 488s are good for nothing but smoking rubber!!! I like the old mopars, 440 dual quad, back then they used a long ram intake runner for a "supercharging" effect at midrange rpms.
