The Fury was a subseries of the Plymouth Belvedere from 1956 to 1958. In 1956 and 1957, it was sold only as a sandstone white two-door hardtop with gold anodized aluminum moldings. In 1958, it was available only in buckskin beige with gold anodized aluminum moldings. These Furies had special interiors, bumper guards, and V8 engines with dual four-barrel carburetors. The 318 cu in (5.2 L) engine from 1957 and 1958 produced 290 hp (216 kW), the same engine as in the Dodge Coronet.

The 1957 models were redesigned; longer, wider, with very large vertical rear fins and a new torsion-beam front suspension replacing the previous coil springs. While the new styling boosted sales, quality control suffered across all Chrysler products, as they were rushed to market before the design and construction flaws could be fully addressed by the engineering department. The front suspension introduced Chrysler's Torsion-Aire torsion-bar suspension, which was shared across all Chrysler products from 1957 onward.

In 1958, the optional engine was a 350 cu in (5.7 L) big-block engine called the "Golden Commando" with two four-barrel carburetors producing 305 hp (227 kW). A 315 hp (235 kW) fuel-injected option was available, but the Bendix electronic fuel injection system was recalled by the factory, and owners received a conventional dual four-barrel setup. The Golden Commando engine was optional on every Plymouth Plaza, Savoy, Belvedere, Suburban, and Fury, as was the dual 318 cu in (5.2 L) four-cylinder engine.

This Plymouth Fury, delivered in the Netherlands, is an unrestored car that remains in fantastic condition.
The car was found by its owner in the late 1980s, but only needed to be made running because it was still in perfect condition. The many details were immediately noticeable, such as the wing mirrors, the freestanding gauges on the dashboard, and the hood handle integrated into the chrome trim. The gearshift knobs for the Torque-Flite automatic transmission are also distinctive. Furthermore, there is a flood of very striking color combinations. The hood is, of course, electrically operated, and not to forget the Square Wheel, the transparent oval steering wheel, which was an option at the time and cost around $1,000. The car's beautiful front end features dual headlights with slanted eyebrows, encased in anodized aluminum. At the rear, the Microphone Taillights are striking, iconic features. The list of unique features continues. The Philips record player, along with a tray of Elvis records, is also quite special. Only 6,948 Furys were made, and this one was delivered by the Dutch firm Zoet, one of the few that went directly to the Netherlands.
Various documents from the early years are still included, including brochures, warranty papers, and an article from the car magazine Carros. The Plymouth was delivered to the director of HaPee in Zeist, the Netherlands. All the booklets are also included. This Fury now belongs to its second owner and has only driven 95,000 kilometers.

It's a unique car that will only be offered once. A style icon for the new owner! The Plymouth Fury Convertible!
