The Fury began in 1956 as a limited-edition high-performance hardtop, and from 1959 the name went on Plymouth's top full-size line. The finned 1958 model is the famous one: Christine, the murderous car of Stephen King's novel and John Carpenter's 1983 film. In the 1970s the big Fury was a favourite American police car.
