Wagon Wednesday: Save this 1970 Plymouth Fury and its awesome 440

By Jeff Glucker Apr 16, 2025

An old Plymouth Fury wagon is a wonderful thing, isn’t it? Especially when you lift the hood and see a massive 440 cubic-inch V8 staring back at you. Per the seller, this one needs a bit of work. Per my own eyes, I would say I agree. But the seller does say it fires up and sounds great so that’s a great sign.

Still, the pictures are said to be from when the seller rescued the car. If you’re trying to sell something, you should take current photos of it. Regardless, it’s intriguing. A big boat of a wagon with a massive engine is endlessly appealing.

Someone needs to bring this big beauty back to life. The asking price is $12,500, and you can see more pictures by clicking through to the Craigslist listing. As long as any potential mechanical issues are easily sorted out, driving it with the existing patina would be a blast.
