Geeez!
After all these years, it just hit me that after looking at this '65 Belvedere.
It's a 1963 Plymouth Fury!!!
This post belongs in history classes. We had a '63 Fairlane, a stretch Falcon - Ford's reply to the many small imports, soon 'rescuing' *Mopar's once-full, now midsize platform.* Falcon, as Mustang, set the ponycar craze
As a little boy in this time and era it was so exciting to go with my Dad to look at all the new models. It was the mid sixties all the way to about mid seventies when cars were exciting and new. It was the perfect time to be young and free. I would ask my parents if I could buy a new model car of these autos. Even the models were built with genuine parts and looked to the exact replicas. My father was sure to teach me manners when meeting adults at the car dealer. I was to say yes sir and no sir and yes mam and no mam. The woman were classy ladies and were kind and the men were in ties and very polite. To see these new cars was the most pleasure I had with my father. I do not know what my Dad would think of modern society where the woman are all walking around in tight exercise clothes snapping their fingers and being rude to everyone and where their is no personal customer service anymore. My dad has long passed away since those days. He would give a wild eye at the prices for cars now and the customer service you get anywhere. You dont see many boys at the dealerships now getting excited over a new car and exploring it from stem to stern. If they are there, they are in their phones playing games with a chip on their shoulders about having to be there period. How the world has changed. I'm so glad I was a part of an unbelievable era in time where children and adults were humble kind and ladies and gentlemen. The new cars had soul and they were beautiful to look at. It was an awesome time with my Mom and Dad and the family. Thank Gid for the memories of an era gone by that will never be again. Thank you.
Thanks for posting this. My parents had a Belvedere II with the slant six in blue. All 3 of us kids drove it. Dad had it for 25+ years preserving it with 2 or three Earl Sheib $99.95 paint jobs. One day a guy in our town knocked on the their door and offered to buy it. Dad sold it for $300.00. We were able to keep tabs on it for awhile as it just sat in his yard. It eventually disappeared.
Love the hip beatnik look and sound!
My father bought a brand new 1965 Belvedere 2 in a 2 door, white with red bucket Seats, 383 hi performance with a 4 speed on the floor. He drag raced it in pure C stock at the old Minnesota Dragways. Always made the finals and always got beat by Warren Johnson who later became a famous pro drag racer on ESPN along with son Kurt. Warren drove a factory built 442 Olds they hauled in on a trailer being he was sponsored by Oldsmobile. I was 2 years old at the time. Dad’s Plymouth did well being he had no sponsor, drove it to the track with mom and I to watch. It had a 3:23 to 1 rear end so he was still in 3rd gear at the 1/4 mile finish. Johnson’s car had a 455:1 and was red lined out at the finish. One time dad almost beat him and lost in a photo finish by 2-3 inches. Warren came and spoke with dad saying man that car impresses me you have being it’s bone stock, he said his was hand built for racing and never street driven.
OMG! I think Chrysler just might have invented "Rap" music.
Here it is! The evolution of Rap music.
I hadn't realized that Plymouth was still offering this 1964 bodystyle along with the new 1965 models. I think there were two distinct Plymouth bodies during the mid 1950s as well.
The 1965 Plymouth Belvedere was the 1962-64 "full-size" Plymouth with a revised front clip. While initially a sales disaster in 1962, the model was just the right size to become an intermediate in 1965, when Plymouth introduced the new full-size Fury. In fact, the 1962 "B-body" was used in one form or another as late as 1981, when it was the platform for the (once-again) full-sized Dodge St. Regis, Chrysler Newport and New Yorker, and Plymouth Gran Fury.
Chrysler-Plymouth is on its way..
Plymouth and Dodge may have goofed in '62, but by this time, they would make good on it!
Pretty sure that's Vanilla Ice's father doing the rap and Maynard G Crebs on the bongos. Cool man!
Bongo? The salesman had to go bongo to work because his wife didn’t get his shorts washed in time.
What we have here is a dealer information filmstrip. The idea is to help the dealer sell the automobile. The automobile the dealer will be selling is the Plymouth Belvedere automobile. The Plymouth is the “low priced three” Chrysler motor company entry. The other three members of the three are the Ford and Chevrolet (often called Chevy). Within the Plymouth Division of the Chrysler motor company is the new Belvedere mid-sized automobile. The car is bigger than a Valiant compact automobile and smaller than Plymouth’s Fury automobile. The more of these Plymouth Belvedere automobiles the dealer sells the more money he and the motor company will make. Even the janitor who cleans the yellow line down the side of the toilet will make more money. Not to mention the title clerk, the sales manager, the actual dealer, the owner of the dealership, and the mechanic there at the local level. Then there’s the factory. The line assembly man, the quality control man, the paint man, the foreman, the chairman, the board, and the investors will all make more money when the dealer sells the automobile.
I had a 65 Satellite 426 Wedge car, I sold it about 10 years ago. Bad move. I still miss it.

Oh, those silly 1960's Chrysler beatniks with their silly little drums.
I had a 1965 Belvedere 4-door with the 273 V-8. By 100,000 miles the engine was smoking pretty bad. They were reliable cars, though. Never let me down even though I was a teenager that thrashed the car. Slow, ill-handling with poor brakes, somehow I miss driving it. The past is best kept in the past, I think.
I bought a 65 4 door 273 3 on the tree that had 50 thousand miles on it in 83 for a 175 dollars.
The vehicle was fantastic on fuel.
Nice Styling 😊
Very good car. We had one.
love my 65. needs work tho...
My Dad's car was off white. We had 8 kids.
Why it's a 64 Fury - that they finally conceded was an intermediate :)
Yes that was Chryslers BIGGEST mistake in the early 1960's. Somehow a Chrysler junior executive was at a automotive conference and wrongly overheard a few GM execs talking about the new ' small ' Chevy they were going to bring out in 1962. The Chrysler guy mistakenly thought that GM was going to downsize the large cars and enthusiastically told the top brass. The car GM was referring to was the Chevy II Nova. Well the CEO of Chrysler trusted the bad info. and ordered the 1962 large cars to be shrunk to the size that was going to be the new intermediate cars. They only corrected the HUGE ERROR in 1965 with the introduction of a properly sized ' big car ' once again and relegated the previous 3 year large cars to their original place as intermediates.
Of course it wasn't new, it was just the '62 Plymouth rebadged. But a fine car regardless.
Haha totally new: NOT! this Dodge-Plymouth midrange era used the '62-64 "full size" chassis wrongly and hurriedly shrunk when rumours grew that GM would do the same. Still, turning lemons into lemonade - kudos!
Let me have one with a hemi in it please,oh and a four speed trans!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know where a 1965 4 door with a 361 commando and a 3 speed on the column is
,, ,, TELL, "M E," !!, ( PLEASE, !!, ),
Dillership?
Cornier than pop corn and corn flakes with corn syrup poured on them.
No HEMI?
I believe it became an option with the redesign in the Roadrunner. Possibly with the Satellite GTX.
The 426 available in '65 was called "The Wedge."
When they mentioned the race version I believe it was the hemi.
Plymouth had such terrible styling up until the late 60s.
