One of the best patrol cars I have ever used was the 1970 Plymouth Fury I with the police package and 383 Four Barrel. It handled well for a large car compared to the Belvedere which was slightly quicker in acceleration with the same engine. In 1972, the department switched to Ford LTDs with the 429 and though a comfortable and adequate patrol car, the performance was so much less than the Plymouth was. The Plymouth handled better on curves. During this period, many departments were using the AMC Matador and I have to say, the Matador out performed our Fords but our remaining 1970 & 1971 Plymouths gave the Matador a run for its money. Plymouth, in my opinion, was an underrated car.
my father drove a 75 Gran Fury Sport Suburban wagon in Dark Chestnut Metallic - l loved the redesigned front end for Gran Fury with its unique dual front headlights and vertical turn signal lenses from the 1974 Fury models - it was a very comfortable wagon we enjoyed until trading for a ‘77 Town & Country when we were told 1977 would be the last year Chrysler Corp would build full sized station wagons - dual air conditioning was discontinued on full sized wagons at Chrysler Corp with the 1974 models after having been introduced 19 years prior in 1957 - a Chrysler Corporation exclusive.
Anyone who has an admiration for music, most is from the KPM label! It surely adds up charm to these presentations!
I'm trying to think what the first piece is, it's most certainly KPM and was used in the 1970s Color Climax porn films.

In 1980, I learned how to drive in our 1977 Plymouth Gran Fury Sport Suburban wagon. My father got it new and he had it until 1983.
In the late 1970s, my next door neighbors had one of these Grand Fury sedans in brown, and I can still remember it had slots in the rear deck for four 6x9 speakers!.
Back in the mid 70's, the Grand Fury was the car the cops used to drive around here. Many were police cars.
The ordinary Fury was also very popular for Police and Taxi fleets.
Yes. The great majority of state police cars were 74-77 Furys, as well as many county sheriffs and city police. Some large departments ordered them hundreds at a time.
Gran Fury. No "d" in the name.
My neighbors were Ohio Highway Patrol officers and they had the 4 door version of these cars, my dad bought a 1977 Chrysler New Yorker which was basically the same car, identical dashboard etc.
I would be SOLD on the Glove Box Coin Holder feature that is worth putting in the Advertising. ;)
Of course you would be!!!!
The coin holders were a godsend on New England toll roads
@@OsbornTramain OsbornTramain you are great love your videos I had a 74 dodge royal monaco with a 400 a fantastic automobile thanks for your time have a great day
My buddy had a hand me down fury, that boat was airborn a few times.
I had a 77 Gran Fury 4 door. To this day I alway thought the 1958 and 1975-77 Gran Fury’s were the 2 best looking Plymouth’s ever built!!!!
'75 was first year for Gran Fury. A '58 would've been a Fury, Savoy, or Belvedere.
Speaking as an older American man who was raised in the '50's & '60's I can attest to the fact that all Chrysler products were terribly underrated by the buying public. Back in those days we had what was known as "Brand Loyalty" and my family was no exception. My father was raised a Ford, Lincoln and Mercury man and my first car was a Ford, Bronco. Had I known then what I now know I would have bought the Dodge, Ramcharger, as the standard features and engineering were far superior to my Ford. Oh well... live and learn.
Mom's side of the family....Chrysler products and AMC, Dad's side of the family, Chrysler and GM (Chevy Buick) What do I drive today as new cars...….Dodge, Chevy, Buick......with a few AMC/Jeep's along the way. Still keeping the family tradition here.
Even in 1975 and 1976, nearly everything seemed perfectly normal to me!
01:26 It's funny they mention air conditioning, when the model shown doesn't have it.
The second picture they showed had a/c.
Nos anos 70 já tinha ignição eletrônica e aqui no Brasil nessa época ainda no platinado....
Yes, that's exactly what I want in my new car
It's interesting that vent windows disappeared from Ford and GM cars in 1967 yet they were still available on Chrysler products as late as 1975. They should never have gotten rid of them.
thru 1977 on the Plymouth, Dodge and Chrysler
@@OsbornTramain thanks.
Good old days. Good old days.
That's my Granddad car 75 Grand Fury Brougham 400 V8 it was white with vinyl maroon interior brought in Brand new most quite car drove it to the end sold it 🙏 Granddad Mopar man
The front view has the exact same look as the 77 Dodge truck. Especially the headlights.
Haha yea it sure does! 😀
Hola tuve un vehículo Plymouth Gran Fury 1976 sedán 4 puertas, enorme en sus interiores y carrocería, es día y a la fecha mis hijos me recuerdan a cada rato porque lo vendí, recuerdo su motor 8 Cilindros 400 CC excelente
Wow. Great commercial; it certainly illustrates by all of the standard and optional features how Chrysler Motors Corp. was a leader in technology, innovation and styling. Anyone in the market for a new car at the time would have just been plain foolish to buy any other make beside Chrysler Corp. products.
You are dead right there mate. They were always at the front of the pack in those areas. At 2:14 though they must have run outa paint when they got to inside of the luggage compartment LOL. Pre-production car perhaps? No matter, I would have one in a heartbeat.
The same guy that did the '77 RM vid!!!!!!!
don't think I've seen 3 in my 62 yrs.
To be fair, the lifespan of most of these was probably 5-7 years and they came out at a time when sales of big cars were really dropping.
I miss these cars sometimes. Gurgling and roaring around town like dinosaurs, or huge animals.
Alot of C-body Chrysler products got used up in demo derby events. If they weren't rust bombs, those cars were pretty tough, second to only 71-76 GM full-size. Not counting Imperials, those usually weren't allowed haha
Were coin slots in the glovebox a feature anyone ever paid for?
Was this the first case of a "sealed for life" transmission??
I don't know when or if Chrysler was the first with it's Torqueflight, but I do know that other video's at MyMopar.com have technical videos and sales and marketing....and I watched one the other day from 1964 and it spoke about never changing the oil ever. So it goes back a long way.
The owner's manual for my '66 Ford Galaxie said the transmission required no service "for life". But the question is how long do you want it's life to be? :-)
Spark plugs comes standard.
Didn't this narrator play somebody's neighbor in a Sit Com?
Thanks for uploading these but your logo is very intrusive
yes, it is and that intentional. I spend a lot of money finding the films and restoring them. With out the trademark and name, they get pirated and uploaded by folks where they profit off the fruits of my labor. It's the only defense mechanism
@@OsbornTramain Yes thats fair but perhaps it could be a little less intrusive like this guy's? czcams.com/video/FTJzAtWr3gk/video.html
Or perhaps it could appear and disappear?
I'm only objecting when it's over the top of the fine Mopar metal.
But thanx for preserving these, love them! Wish I could go back in time ...
Hmmm, I didn't even notice the logo!
Раньше было время. Золотое время. Раньше жили весело. А теперь не весело. Раньше были времена. Все любили Ленина. Уважали Сталина.
I wonder why automakers in the seventies quit making a roll down back window? My 72 Chevy has all front and back seat windows that roll down.
Chrysler always had roll down rear windows.
I assume you’re talking about the two door versions and I believe it was cost cutting and weight reduction. I thought it was a bad idea myself especially when GM did it to the four door midsize cars.
As the wheel base is shortened the rear wheel opening intrudes further into the door area. After awhile there is not enough depth in the door to allow glass to drop down.
I remember the big Impala 2 doors that had back windows that did not roll down. Maple motors has one on their lot right now and they have a lot of videos of their inventory
