Ricky Nelson had a '57 Belvedere convert, dark color without
SporTone. I have a pic in a 1957 Teen magazine and it was also shown on a
TV special a while back.
I thought Christine was a Belvedere.

Subject: [FWDLK] RED PLYMOUTH FURY
Dear
Group,
I hate to
break anybody bubble but I personally drove my 1956 Fury to 8 different
dealers in 1957 and then again in 1958 just to see Furys in the showroom. No
one told me about it ----I was there. It was very very hard for a dealer
to get a Fury and when they did get one it was a really big deal. You were
lucky to get one even if you had the cash!!!! So now almost 50 years later the
hot news is out that they made different color Furys. Come on guys------people
will tell you anything now days. Yes, I heard the story about Ricky Nelson had
a black one straight from the new car dealer-----------errrra or is that
new car dealer paint shop.
Check these so called factory colored Furys out and if you look really really
close and know where to look you will see they were originally Buckskin
Beige. The movie Christine got everybody wanting to have that only Red Fury
off the assembly line ---------BUT THAT WAS A MOVIE---- THAT
WAS A MOVIE SET ASSEMBLY LINE----NOT REAL LIFE.
