Fury for sale
Posted: Mon May 28, 2012 10:14 am
As I have not used my Fury for over two years I have come to the reluctant decision to sell , it seems a shame that it sits idle when perhaps someone else could be having fun with it.
Chassis number SF920053 built by me and first run in 1995, covering 7290 miles since.
Engine is ford crossflow re-engineered by Vulcan to their 110 bhp spec, but later upgraded from the then downdraught carb to twin webbers.
Vulcans work:- Block rebored to +60 and honed to use hepolite pistons. Cranks ground and tuftrided, vandervell bearings. Kent BCF2 Cam and new followers. New timing chain and tensioner. Big valve "Maxflow" head 1.625 inch inlets and 1.325 exhaust valves with extra strong single springs and converted to unleaded. High pressure oil pump, 60psi. Steel rocker posts with new shaft. Lightened flywheel.
Engine balanced and tuftrided by vulcan.
I have a shallow sump, plus gasket, which has yet to be fitted.
Gearbox ford 5 speed type 9. Rear axle 3.9 to 1
Body is in gel coat finish. The bonnet has been cut about to accept the twin carbs, and to disguise the position of the original bonnet hump the new one is in black, plus a stripe along the car. No attempt made to hide the scars on the underside, it could be hidden by painting with rubberoid coating-I have tried to show this in the photo's. Also I carelessly allowed the bonnet to drop shut onto items I had stood under the bonnet causing a star crack, again I have tried to show clearly in the photo's. The windscreen was fitted for me by a professional but a few weeks later a small crack appeared in the top right hand corner( as viewed from the drivers seat) this has not become any worse in the intervening 16 years and is not a problem for the M O T. Again I have tried to show as large and clearly in photo.
Drivers seat slides to and fro, both seats can be released and tipped forward to access the rear compartment or to store items such as a road map.
Tyres are Yoko A520 185/60 R14 82H.
Instruments are the original ford items but fitted behind the dash panel so as to appear to be independent units, mileage turned to zero.
If there is any further information or photo' required I am happy to supply.
As to price , well I don't have any idea on the cars value. I am open to offers for the reality when selling is not the vendors opinion but what the market will pay. As I have already said I would prefer the car to be out being enjoyed rather than just sitting idol in the garage, always garaged under a dust sheet when not in use.
Try as I might to add photo's I seem unable to reduce the file size to an acceptable scale for the forum. If interested and happy to release email address I will send copies. Alternately guidance please on loading photo's!!
Addendum
