Thanks Scott the Radio really looks in the 60 Fury 👍
Old Flying Shoe🇺🇸
1:10 I agree with this statement about nothing I want to hear on the radio anymore. You can also add network television, cable television, or any other "joke agenda" items.
Finding that old picture has to be one of the coolest things about that Fury.
My blood runs cold, my memory has just been sold...Fury is the centerfold! The finishing pieces really bring the car into show class status now. Hats off to the people sending in the rare and unique pieces to tie it all together. Still the most amazing build on RUclips. I love all the revives and shootouts, but this splice just took on a whole other form and it shows. Something to be proud of.
There is only one other build on RUclips that is of the same caliber as the Fury build, and that is a video done by RUclipsr Cortina City with his restoration of "Bramble".
Yes, I remember how it was at first referred to as a "daily driver" build...then, as it got farther along, and it began to really take shape an it became obvious that this was really going to be a nice car, the "daily driver" moniker was quietly dropped from the title...
I could and would have watched an hour of this installation.....I cannot get enough of this Plymouth.............
That’s great Scott, that you were able to locate that original photo of the 60 Plymouth. So cool.
The hell's wrong with me that I found watching you clean up an old speaker so satisfying?
Looking forward to even more excitement on Sat!
We're all sad bastards. Sure, that Ferrari's made several appearances over a couple years, but oh, that sweet Traction Avant...
Scott , You have had your hands all over the 60 Fury like a Prom Date . But we your viewers appreciate the Car so much . It was time shared with you and the Agents . And Franker's. Classic Tires & Darts always made me smile .
Chilling and thrilling feeling when something surfaces like that. You saved that car via hardcore resto. Super splice. That picture surfaced and the circle of restoration is complete. Its why we do it the story and feelings we get.
Whoaa great result on the photo, such a treat when that happens, it really adds something special to a car's history file. Good to see the Cit under cover!
One of the two most anticipated nights of TV in the week. I always look forward to your videos. Wonderful!!
As long as that radio don't start playing "Skinny Mini" and the seat starts moving towards the dash. Then your in trouble scruffy Arnie. Great show.
The photo was amazing! My son inherited my mom-in-law's 1965 Ford Mustang 2 + 2. While watching Derick on Vice Grip Garage he had dropped off a car he was driving across the country that developed transmission problems and was making a video at the transmission shop and stopped to look at another car in the transmission shop, which was my son's Mustang. It was very strange to see my son's Mustang in the Vice Grip Garage video.
Neighbor Tom is always good for a laugh.😅
That radio does look right at home in that Fury. Great job getting it to fit right with your Dremel.
Scott, great little presentation for the Fury. Radio looks great and just amazing about that photo. Love the history.
No swearing, no swearing!
Good ole Tom.
Saturday awaits. Cheers from Wisconsin
Great story Scott! Make a copy and mount it somewhere on the dash!
An interesting thing about radios from that era is they had little triangle markings on the dial at 640 and 1240 KhZ. It was part of the CONELRAD system, where in the event of an atomic attack you would turn the radio to one of those frequencies to await instructions (assuming you hadn't already been vaporized. 😵) There's more information at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CONELRAD
I remember in grade school doing under your desk drills during the Cuban/ Bay of Pigs ordeal.
@@Hanzyscure I grew up a couple miles from the iron curtain, on the "American" side of Germany, we had our share of GIs making trouble in bars and clubs and CIA officers ruining our market for rented houses good. We never had any drills because everybody knew once they turned the cold war in a hot one we were the first ones to be wiped off the globe's surface. Pretty strange but happy life. When things got _really_ tense in the world the girls became loose and willing because it didn't matter anyway and they didn't want to have missed out in the end, just in case .....
There used to be an extensive Conelrad site devoted to cold war kitsch, but the registration of the url appears to have expired.
Makes sense to install the radio ; looks great, and it doesn’t matter if it doesn’t work. I share your thoughts about contemporary AM radio programming. Other than following favorite sports radio broadcast, here in the states the rest is almost exclusively “noise.” The old photo is just awesome!
Most people wouldn't get vaporized in a nuclear strike. Just severely burned. Or maybe blasted by glass if you're driving
It's always a hoot when Tom turns up 😅
Amazing the power of RUclips. Connecting Car Guys with radios, speakers and pictures. The countless hours of hard work is appreciated by many Sofa Surfers like me.
It is amazing what people can replicate with 3D printers . May be someone could make a part for you , the rear door handles .
Are the 1960 armrests pot metal that's flash chromed or plastic? What Jay Leno did to replicate a missing Duesenburg SJ cylinder head a decade or so ago (3 D scan and print a sacrificial investment wax casting plug) is probably relatively trivial now or soon. Like CAD/CAM from your smartphone (or a viewer's snapshots of an intact arm rest)
3d scan it and a new one can be printed. Just mirror the 3d model to make the other side.
I'd love to know the process of "aluminizing" (chrome plating) plastic and whether it's feasible to DIY.
That's a decent idea!
I've asked myself, "what hasn't CWM taught me over the years about cars?" You guys seem to cover just about every gram of these oldies and it's a gem to get to get to see these processes and project updates and lessons. Cheers.
That old photo of the Fury is an amazing find! That armrest base could be repaired using some basic modeling skills and materials: Evergreen styrene sheet, super glue, wet sandpaper and there are several convincing air-brushable “chrome” paints out there now. Fun installment - see you Saturday!
That old photo of your Fury is so cool!
Also, I've watched a lot of speaker cleaning videos on RUclips, but this is the best one I’ve ever seen.
Did any of video's involve fire in the cleaning process?😆
Scott dismantles the radio like a soldier would a rifle .
I’ve always felt that a vintage receiver (whether radio, tele or telephone) should only receive actual period shows, music, emissions or conversation.
That is just crazy wild to find the negatives and have the time to scan them. Lol then recognize the car That is the universe telling you something.
Nice to see the Plymouth getting some more loving. And that old picture is fantastic! Nothing like finding a vintage picture of your own car!
Love listening to that old guy swear. Its like a warm fire on a cold day.
Long Live Tom.
That picture of the Fury is too cool.
It’s so neat to see them in their original state of use.
Discovering that photo is really crazy! I’ve said it before, but it merits saying again, you have truly generous and kind viewers Scott which says a lot about you. Cheers to doing things you love to do, and to having others enjoy watching you do them! ❤️🔧✌🏻
What a fun video. Putting the finishing touches on the Fury with the radio install is great to see. That vintage photo is an amazing find! The odds are huge to find that, congratulations. FB can be a good resource at times with this sort of thing. Keep up the good work, looking forward to Saturdays video, new projects are always fun!
That is pretty wild that you found a picture of the 60 Fury from the 60's! Very awesome you got a radio for it as well. Cheers!
We have a radio station in Omaha, Nebraska - Boomer Radio - 1490 AM that plays hits of the 60's, 70's and 80's - perfect cruising music from the cars of CWM....
So funny hearing Tom wander in while the radio was being cleaned.
Never tried it, but there are tales of spraying hair lacquer on old speaker cones to freshen them up and restore a bit of original stiffness to the paper. The radio looks perfect in the dash. Amazing to see the Fury in the 1967 photo.
What an awesome find with that photo!
Scott, I’m loving the show, but I am hoping to see your lovely sister get her car. Cant wait for that day..
Love that 60 Plymouth...
Scott, that is an amazing piece to to the history of the Fury. What are the chances at that moment in 1962, the Fury was parked there and someone took a photo. Now the photo surfaces, goes into the billions of other photos and information on the internet, and finds its way to you as the current owner. Absolutely amazing moment.
It’s so fun to relax with your channel after a hard day. So much more entertaining than anything on television these days. Good job Scott
I second the thanks to all the folks who sent Scott stuff that's germaine to the effort - especially for
*The* *Centerfold* That pic from 1967 is just incredible, too!
I can certainly identify with the radio thing in the car, too - I went to great pains to get a working example
in Fred the GTX as well, even though there literally is no time I'll listen to the thing while enjoying the car.
It's just cool to know it's there and it's functional.
Yes, the high-falootin' $$$ calendar has been ordered (of course!)....
- Ed on the Ridge
That photo is incredible, what a find.👍
I thought I faintly heard "Cathy's Clown" by the Everly brothers playing from the Fury's newly installed radio. Nice job Scott!
I feel really lucky where I live to be able to listen to three oldies stations on my '68 Fury VIP's original radio. Ironically, one of them is the same station I listened to in college in the early to mid 1980's when I was driving my '67 Sport Fury. Their playlist hasn't changed, it's still 60's-80's.
Can't wait to see you try out the old camera, I hope the film is good.
Tractor Gnome! You are the best!
That’s super cool seeing that car in front of the Legislature! Love the channel Scott.
HOW WILD to find that snapshot at the end of this vid - WOW WOW WOW!! This was the absolute cherry on the top of all the Fury vid updates I've followed in the past 5+ years, Scott! To think that you found a picture of the actual car! Mind blowing. Made my day. Love & peace from North Carolina, USA!
That’s a great Picture of the 60 Fury Scott and the Radio looks great
* The picture of the Fury IS an amazing find. Scott man, you need to get over yourself. It's great that you got an original radio (if it works) but you need to put a modern triaxial speaker in. The speaker was always the weak link in those systems. Oh, and I have a 60's reverb around here your welcome to. Let me know. They give a wild crazy sound (that no one remembers) to mono radios. Scott it's time I mentioned something to ya I bet you've already thought about. That Fury is your triumph. You put so much work into it with the splice and all. You should make it all it could have been from the factory. The car deserves it ! Put that weak numbers matching 318 on a stand and find the 361ci it could have come with. Maybe the long ram intakes and dual quads also. Your performance subscribers (like myself) are chomping at the bit for one of your cars to be all it can be and the Fury is the most rare and deserving. You could get advice from Nick and make something truly unique. A new vid series. I know it's not your style but maybe it's time. A 361ci with 10.5 to 1 compression, a lumpy bumpstick, some porting and polishing, and long tube exhaust could yield 400hp easy. There's a good write up on Fury's on Wikip*dia check it out. Anyway ... Cheers 🍻🍺🍻. 👊😎👍 p.s. leave a reply if you want that reverb ...p
Would be so cool if fins could make a comeback, they really jazz a car up.
I asked a Chrysler rep about the return of fins years ago and was told that they cannot because they are now illegal because of the risk of injury to pedestrians in reverse. Seriously.
I guess spoilers have taken the place of fins.
@@FarginBastiges I have permanent dents in my forehead from my dads 60 caddy.
That's living Dangerously, Johnny!
Really, they could do 1960 Dodge fins and nobody would get hurt!
I like that picture, really nice
not many days of the clear weather for outdoors. more incremental improvements on interiors. wooHoo
I love the time and effort you put in scott
That car is lucky to still be alive and rejuvenated.
Just WONDERFUL Scott! Glad for that photo and the prized radio! Cheers!! Rich
Loved the pic and history found. Damned cool! Cheers!
TA's are one of the most gangster looking cars. I'm jealous.
That photo of your nearly completely restored 1960 Fury, whar were the chances? If only we could pick up those radio stations from 1960 and not the x*!00+` of today. I can still remember their voices and the music. Same goes for TV. Haven't watched TV in Canada since Dec. '81. The Citroën Traction Avant Familiale should at least have comparatively little rust but everything else is like Cracker Jack's surprise box. Thank you gents!
Good things there with the keys, radio, etc!! Your viewers do love the car as much you.
As to the photo- 2 words destinal fate. Someone mentioned putting a copy on the dash, yet I'd say put a 8×10 in a frame on one of the walls next to it! VERY COOL, almost lighting in a bottle!
Cheers
The attention to detail is so cool to watch. You make it look so easy and do a great job doing it. Bringing the history back to current times is just amazing. Thanks for rebutting in a positive and productive way.
That is awesome to get a photo of the Fury back in 1967
Scott , this shows that this save was meant to be , it should also be
worthy addition to next year calendar , maybe add an extra page or 2 of bonus
photos?????
I noticed the Cardinal Block Heater you were sporting there ,
almost looks like that Thrush Bird ????.
That picture is quite an addition to the Fury. I wish I had pictures of all the cars that I’ve owned over the past 50 years, but regrettably they were lost along the way. Fond memories are all the I have left. 👍💯
Thank you for the video! The picture of the car was awesome! Thanks for sharing 💯👍
Amazing to see the Plymouth in the old photo. Excited to see when my calendar arrives.
Wow! That vintage photo of the Fury was an incredible find! So cool.
Also nice job on the radio install.
Such a cool ass picture to have!!!
I think the issue with the Fury isn't so much that you have too many radios to put in the car, it's that you have too few '60 Mopars for the radios you have 😉
The period pic of the Fury is an awesome find...I guess Facebook was good for at least one thing, lol!
Scott, it's very cool that you now have a period picture of the '60 Fury! If you think of it, please talk about how similar/different the '59 and the '60 are to drive. A body-on-frame vs. Unibody Mopar comparo! Cheers from Pennsylvania 😊
That is just one beautiful car and the name is spot on and when you get rested YOU HAVE TO PUT THE CLOCK IN! you have accomplished so much on building your centerfold she deserves the clock and yes my cars are always a she that's the way we guys did it back then and the name on my current car is the EMERALD LADY for the color of her paint
Love seeing the updates on the 60 Fury. My parents had a 1960 Belvedere 4 Dr. Pretty basic car with PS and 318.
So fun to be able to gather more of your car's history. I know who owned my 53 Packard from 64 to 84, but before and after is still a mystery.
Afukingamazing….. so much thanx to all of your amazing efforts to please us all.
That photograph of the Fury is amazing.
1) Cleaning the speaker felt like an ASMR video. This episode was a Late Night Buzz with a different kind of buzz 😁
2) "The Centerfold" is a perfect name for this car.
3) If I had sent you one of the extra radios, I would certainly understand if you installed the best looking/working one and sold/traded the rest in order to help get armrests because it still furthers the cause of completing the car.
I always enjoy spending some tinkering time with you in your shed. Cheers and the best from the plains.
Just think how awesome it would be to put the "factory radio" in the Speedster... A phonograph with a trumpet speaker that played 78 rpm cylinders! 😆
I'll get on that! @@glennnickerson8325
That picture is incredible!
Thanks for the Thursday evening entertainment !
"My angel is the centerfold" The J Geils Band. 👍👍🇨🇦
So fricken cool! Love this video, that Fury is awesome! Tell Tom that we don't mind the cussing. If you can't handle a little bit of cussing, then obviously you don't mess with cars and don't belong here. 😅
After the injury, who says " darn it " ? Maybe it's urban, but I never heard that except maybe a middle school teacher
Scott, wow! That photo is a miraculous coincidence! Your closeted Wizard status is once again affirmed! Magical cheers to you and Tom who showed up just in time to kill your family friendly rating! CWMs language liberty remains intact! I wonder if that AM receiver will still pick up Radio Free Europe?
Scott, the car is amazing I’ve enjoyed watching the videos of the ‘60 and the amount of detail you put into it.
Thanks for the mid-week update on the '60 Fury!
That’s an amazing and special thing finding the photo of the Fury!
Reminds me of the old days when I would shellac my speaker to get a little extra “life” out of it. A trip to the junkyard gave me a long term fix as a ‘56 Cadillac transmission hump-mounted 6x9 speaker fit perfectly in the front of my ‘59 Ford!
I liked your car radio quiz tape a while ago and have some old radios that I will eventually part with! One of my favorites is a ‘58 Plymouth seek-scan with the speaker fader built into the radio (most of them had the speaker fader on the dash.
My regards to you, your agents and of course Frankers!
I had car radios that only worked if you banged on the dash and there was always bugs and junk on those front speakers,so annoying noises came out and when you wanted to rock out it would sometimes go silent and need another whack
My Dad's 57 deVille had a scan/seek radio,the fader was a third can on the back of the volume pot- you may be speaking earlier Mopar - specifically
Love the historical shot of the Fury.
Congrats on the radio install. I am happy to see the Citroën TA inside and look forward to the time when you get it running and back on the road. Cheers!
Radio looks great Scott! And that photo find is fantastic! I hope they find a few more going through the old photos. And having Tom around to brighten up a crappy day! Cheers!
My first electric guitar was a 1965 Gibson Melody Maker. As it goes, I put Grover tuners on it and a humbucker, and the work was done by a guy who knew what he was doing. It was a one-of-a-kind guitar. I traded it for a brand-new acoustic back in 1986. Early this year I was watching a RUclips video of this musician at his home, and as he walked through the kitchen and into the living room of an older home, there on the wall in a frame was that guitar. I was shocked. What's it doing in a frame? Makes me wonder what the story is after it left my grubby hands. I wrote to the guy, but never heard back.
It's those moments that take you by surprise. The Plymouth is the only car in the picture, which makes it even more special. How cool is that???! What an awesome share! Thanks, man.
Unbelievable that picture of the Fury
Someone out there has the armrests for this Fury new old stock would be great 😊😊
Scott nice job with the Plymouth Fury
That picture is wild!! Very cool
It is amazing how the car community comes together to make a car complete. Those were some cool items that were donated and that picture just tops it off. Time to order a calendar.
Ottimo lavoro alla radio.l'altoparlante ho visto che ha il cono rotto,spero che l'hai sistemato.bella macchina
The Traction Avant is one French car I'd be interested in watching a buildup of. They're very pretty, and this extended version only adds to its French wackiness appeal.
So happy for you finding that old photo. Talk about a time machine! Slapping that radio in there takes you one step closer to Plymouth Nirvana. While someone's idea about 3-D printing the rear interior door handles is pretty spot-on, what you have tipped off is a desire to find an original that you can re-cover and install.. Happy hunting - here's hoping one of your loyal's comes up with a pristine example. Cheers, and see the gang on Saturday!
No “radio delete” for the Centerfold. Very appropriate finishing touch for a stellar machine. Liked how the glass dial face had ‘Plymouth’ on it; a classy detail. Once again, thanks to Tom for refreshing my obscenity references which come in handy!
Such a cool picture!
Love that Fury! Amazing job on that car! See you Saturday.
if that building still exists looks like you have a photo shoot to go to
Being an antique radio collector, I really enjoyed this vid. Even just to hear the local news channel coming through the speaker and the dial lamp glowing while driving adds a nostalgic feel to driving a classic. Amazing with the photo! Wow!
