Description[]
The '57 Plymouth Fury is based on the actual production model. However, this particular casting has a 1958 style lower valence panel. The grille shape appearrs to be different than that used in 1957. It is also worth noting that Plymouth never actually produced a Fury sedan in 1957. The Fury for 1957 was only offered as a two door hard top. This car is based on a sedan as it has the "B" pillar.
In 1983, novelist Stephen King immortalized the Plymouth Fury in his novel "Christine," which became a movie adaptation directed by John Carpenter in the same year.
The 2009 Treasure Hunt release of this casting is based on a 1957 Plymouth Belvedere, once owned by Hot Wheels designer Brendon Vetuskey.
