The 1958 PLYMOUTH FURY ‘CHRISTINE’ featured as a fiery 2-door malevolent personality having a mind of its own in a 1983 film written by Bill Phillips and based on a Steven King novel of the same name. Real-life Fury’s only came in one color being ‘buckskin beige’ so this car was specifically customized to suit the story. They were powered by V8 engines with twin four-barrel carburetors. The 1957 and 1958 318 cu in (5.2 L)-engine produced 290 hp. Of the twenty three cars used in the film, the best known surviving vehicle was rescued from a junkyard and restored by collector Bill Gibson. (drawn 27Apr'20)
