Sounds like a comment from a “Bitter Man,” couldn’t resist to add the quip. Seriously, I use the “delete” key frequently although I am tempted to be rude but I don’t think it helps but rather creates bad relations. I have apologized on-line before but I like to avoid eating crow whenever possible.

9970 is alot differant from 777. that is show room perfect hardly ever used. that is not this car. belive what you want but you need your eyes checked if you see this car at a show and think that 777 is correct.
I to went thru all of the skeptics when I had my 70 AMX.I bought the car in 1983 with "9,970"miles showing on the odemeter.I cant remember all of the people that told me NOWAY was that the orginal miles.I got tired of trying to tell them that it was orginal miles.What I didnt tell them that most of them were put on the car 1/4 at a time as the car had been a drag car and also sat in storage for 3/4 of its life at the time and I DID have access to the 3 pryor owners of it and IF need be i could document the miles.I just didnt think it was worth it just to prove all of the jealous people that told me I was full of it about the miles.I sold the car in 1997 to a friend with 14,450 miles showing,so I enjoyed the car for 13+years and about 4480 miles.So I say enjoy the hell out of the car and to heck with those that think they know everything there is to know about a car.Have fun with it and love the heck out of it
cuz they cant.

My friend is over in Iraq now, My car was found in Iraq during the war and shipped home. That's why it has no rust. The car is being restored now that it's back home. When my friend gets back here the car will have a set of license plates from....IRAQ. what a fun story it will have. Part of Mopar legends and stuff of dictators gone awry.

Knowing how we all enjoy among other things our 62-65 Mopars, this 62' Plymouth Sport Fury called "barn find" is just another long lost cousin to our cars, no better, no worse than our own cars in our family.
Being up close and personal with this car 3 times I can shed what light on what I have observed, what I've been told, and what I know for myself. The first time I saw this car was 2005 or 2006 at a cruise night about a mile from the owners home. A nice 70's + gentalmen that passed on only a few years later. I was told the location the car was found in, a nice little community of small farms, not to reveal his source, just that it was in a barn. Now mind you not all barns are home for 4 legged animals and like my barn home only to 4 wheeled vehicles.
Something happened to the original owner after it was purchased. The car was left behind and was driven often by the family, maybe two to three times a month in good weather, but but only for a few miles at a time. The car sat well protected it's whole life.
Upon purchase of the car it was found to have many dried up gaskets and seals, some leaks, many starts with long periods of sitting. The engine compartment had oil and grease marks and appeared to be from dirty mechanics. But the owner would not have them touched, I think he felt them to be a badge of honor.
Who knows the real mileage of this car, does it matter, you be the judge. I can tell you this, the car is unrestored, there is not one mark of road rash anywhere I could see. The chrome, stainless, glass, the interior is something to see. The tires were unbelievable, I've not seen that many cracks since I drove the Cross Bronx Expressway.
The last time I saw the car was in 2009 parked next to me at a cruise, close to our home. I met the grandson for the first time. He loved his grandfather and at that time said he was just going to put the car away, I think he loved his grandfather more than this car.
Many people have seen this car at Carlisle under the Survivor Tent back in 2008. I've attached a photo that was sent to me of this event. Maybe it will come out to play again this year, I just hope it doesn't park next to me at a show.
Oh, and one more thing, next time you're at a cruise or car show and someone asks you where did you find your car, just tell them in a barn, it's where tall tales begin....

Yeah, without a detailed history of the car it can't be proven one way or the other. Nick's note that his offer to detail the car was refused is interesting: if the Plymouth was detailed and made to show cleaner it would be easier to pass it off as a very low mileage car. Who knows what lurks in the mind of that owner? LOL It's almost always "buyer beware" in car sales, is it not? :) Anyhow, we all agree that that 1962 Sport Fury is a great car and a Mopar most anyone on this mail list would not mind owning!
