Interesting find at Desert Valley
I paid a visit to my neighborhood wrecking yard, Desert Valley Auto Parts, to pick up a couple of sway bar links (snapped a nut on mine) and came across this.

I thought this was pretty cool.
Not mine (but used to be) 65 Plymouth Sport Fury
Here’s the car that got me into C bodies back when I was 17. It looks a little different from when I owned it though. It appears to have received a fresh cost of paint and the body damage to the passenger door is repaired (I didn’t damage it). Glad to see it got some love in the past 20 years.
