I was lead to believe that this was a real, full sized Fury. You took 9 minutes and 51 seconds from my life and I want it back! Nice job on the model, though....
I'd love to know why anyone would think Christine is a Fury. Stephen King has no idea, that's for sure. In the novel, Christine is described as having four doors..which Fury's NEVER had, and the cars used in the film are obviously two door Belvederes. All Fury's had gold annodising on the grill and trim. Belvedere's and Fury's were VERY easy to tell apart!!
@Kaffyboy I don't know whether it was because John Carpenter thought a Fury would look better on film, but the book even says it's a 4-door Belvedere. I don't know Plymouths well enough to know the exact differences, but I do know that a Fury is a lot flashier than a Belvedere. The only gold anodising I remember on the movie car is a gold chevron on the grille. Also, wasn't it that Furies had an extra pair of headlights? All easy items to "fake."
The cars in the movie are furies. you can tell from the bumper. and the reason why people think christine is a fury is because in the book it actually says "1958 red and white Plymouth Fury." the only reason it had four doors and a shift lever instead of buttons is because king didn't even know what the car looked like. He just wanted one to use a an angry furious car, and he found the Fury. so he used that.
@sobertson1 who gives a rat's about the book? Sounds like you really know your cars. All I know is whatever cars they used in that movie...I've never seen anything like them! I don't know how they did it...but that Christine was so awesome....just makes me want to scream at the moon!
LEATHER......Check your spelling....RED LEATHER...Not LETHER. I don't know if this has already been brought to your attention. Nice Job on the painting :o)
That's 1 cool car! (I like the 'smoke' from the wheel spin!) "Christine" is one of my fave all-time fims (probably 'cos of the music!). I had a few models in the '90s of similar cars too ('57 Chevy -very similar to 'the Fury' & a Buick (I think!) painted mint green). I couldn't afford the luxurious metal ones though, mine were all plastic!
@joemeek304 So did I. I bought 2 of them and I turned one into a convertible and the other one I left in the package. Never been opened. It still has the factory "air" in it lol
@tripovermyego i confess to having my out on display, and gave the seats and internal parts a paint job, thou maybe i shouldnt have as im has odd coloured headlight led bulbs ones got a tint of green glow other is white
@joemeek304 thats fine. I took all the wires out of the one I turned into a convertable. I set it in my fishtank with the lights on and it looked badass!!! But the water corroded the wires so I took it apart and pulled all the wires out and then cut the top off so now its a convertable. Looks pretty cool if I do say so myself. lol
Good job with the Christine. But just to let you know you can buy them already painted red and white to look just like Christine. They even have the CQB 241 plate.
did you ever get the plymouth at the car lot?
