This is a Lu-Lu......A Chrysler exec overheard what he thot was a plan to downsize GM full size cars so he ordered Virgil Exner, chief design engineer, to downsize his full size line up at the 11th hour and the rest is history.

I suspect there were more manual 413 Furys than ten (I don't have my numbers book with me), but, for example, they made 116 Savoys (base model) with the 413 and about 50 of those were manual trannys (like mine). Darrell Davis has a wonderful registry which documents the remaining Max Wedge Plymouths and Dodges. He is a former Chrysler Exec who has a tremendous amount of knowledge and passion for the Super Stock era (62-65) of Max Wedge and Hemi cars. BTW the Fury was the 3rd tier up in a line up starting with Savoy, then Belvedere, Fury, Sport Fury.
