...my apologies, the Sport Fury's Torqueflite transmission reads R, N, D. 3, 2, 1. (I forgot the 3.) In addition to the gold highlights I listed earlier, there are also gold "Fury" scripts on both fins, and a gold medallion in the center of the Flightsweep deck lid (the fake spare tire bulge). Since there is no way to prove your friend's car came from the factory w/ a 413, I don't hink he can claim extra value or rarity...but if he can get a build sheet from Chrysler...!? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Don Uhl" <don.uhl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <L-FORWARDLOOK@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, May 17, 2001 7:40 PM Subject: [FWDLK] 59 Sport Fury 413? > A friend of mine just gave me a phone call on a car of his.
