- HI! We're back with Part 14 of the Fury rebuild! This time I'll be joined by Agent 223 and we'll get the rear 1/4 window repaired and fitting while the quarter panel is off... Then, it's time to pull the rear clip again and get it ready to weld on for the final time. I'll also start fitting all of the repair panels to the quarter and tack them in place before taking the whole thing off again to finish the welding and fitting.
I hope you enjoy our new feature "Dealer's Choice", haha! An all-white BMW M3 will kick off this super-serious look at some iconic "dealer" rigs of the 80's!

Uuuh, a new vid from CWM! You cannot imagine how excited I become every time. I immediately hit the 👍 button even before watching it!
Now let's watch it finally...
Dear Scott.
Good grief! Restoring the (inner) mechanism stuff of a car door/ window is a nightmare usually. And you said right at the beginning of this video something like: Let's do it just for fun! I simply couldn't believe my ears. But you let it look like as if it was nothing!
O.K., I see, the mechanism will never be more accessible than without the sheet panel.
Nevertheless, if it wasn't proofed before:
Now it's absolutely and finally clear,
you are definitely a man without fear!
2) The rest of the vid shows extremely well done welding and adjusting again and as always!
3) Congrats to your friend... uh... beg your pardon... agent of course. A very clean solid goid looking iconic BMW M3. They are super rare and super expensive in Germany respectively Europe. Especially in this condition.
4) Did I spot a grey 2CV with cool black Francine in it? She seems to like it. Aren't Poodles originally coming from France? Then maybe this affinity results out of this context?
Best regards, all the best luck and health to all involved (no matter if 2 or 4 feet or even more like the black bug on the alpinewhite BMW).
Who is agent grumpy bum? The same old shit dude. Lol. He is a legend im sure.
That is one big ass quarter panel on that car what is it 6 to 8 foot long?
coldwarmotors there's just something about that fury I love. I truly believe that it's the most stylish automobile ever produced. I'm so glad to see you bring her back to life by all means necessary. You sir are a talented man with a lot of time and we your viewers sure do appreciate the time effort and ability to share this with the car lovers of the world. I'm a body man of 20 years, seen a lot , and I can watch the fury videos over and over and not get tired of watching. Much love from NewOrleans .Keep them coming.
Hey guys. You probably remember me telling you that you found my grandpa's Plymouth plaza.......... Well he told me more about it and that car you found wasn't his car. His car had a different inline 6 than that one. But my grandpa told me to tell you guys "Thank you saving all of these old cars, you are really doing the *old timer* people a favor by saving and working on these old cars even if they aren't worth anything".
Hi, you know the old saying, one mans junk is another mans treasure!
Watching a window mechanism work was far more fascinating than the movie I just watched
Today’s episode is a perfect example of how to live well-friends chatting, working on old iron, sharing knowledge, laughter, and F-bombs-simple pleasures! Peace-out!
Well Said! This is one of the big reasons I like this channel. It's the best when they are stumbling around a car at midnight on a Saturday having good time.
Love watching this. Watching the rust go away and the clean metal replace it. You and Pete C live the car restoring I wish I had the money and talent to do myself. Always awesome.
Just going back and watching some early '60 Fury episodes after the reveal this week. I'm constantly reminded of one of the things that makes this show great, the hilarious dialogue. Scott and Jim joking about bear scratches, jugs of stop leak, running the aircon with the windows down, I'm in stitches once again. I freakin' love this show!
Amazing craftsman. Such a lost art. Kids these days wont even take time to check tire pressure or oil so that's a hard skill to pass on. Thanks for posting videos so it's here for future generations to see how skill and time and create magic
Another top video Scott. People of the world who are suffering with depression, watch this video and you will feel better about life. Thanks to you and the team. UK Philip.
That's how I found good channels like this one. I've been pulling myself out of a hole since 2014. I came for the Fury, stayed for the BMW M3. Dealer's choice LOL - They're worth about $50k these days. My E34 is only 2K though, the only thing in common is the alpine weiss II colour. Love the view of the window winder too. I know how hard they are to adjust and seal just right as well because I used to have a mazda rx4 hard-top
WOW ! What a great amount of engineering and care/style went into cars back then. Canada , Europe and the U.S.A. had auto-company competition at an all time high back then so the lucky customer got to see and buy great cars made during the 1950's , 1960's and most of the 1970's.
hay you guys if you all don't quit being funny. I'm going to have to watch you all at work and not at home cause the ol lady thinks I'm nuts when I watch cause I laugh a lot out load. keep up the good work.
Amazing to see how this is coming along, back when cars were what they were, cars. American classics. They were so good down the road. The ride was the right height. You could see the end of the hood, and knew about where your front bumper was, and if you had any doubts, you could hang your head out the window and see both bumpers. They were all a dream to drive.
That mechanism is an engineering marvel.
Great video Scott!! I really enjoyed watching the window mechanism section. I laughed at Tom wanting his royalties and I wonder if he knows how important he is to the channel. I agree on the fishing tapes out of the deck. It took me right back to high school in an instant. Lastly that car will be downright dangerous because it will be such a distraction everywhere you take it. You just don't see those old finned beauties anywhere except in books. I hope the summer is a great time and you can get out and enjoy her and all your hard work!!
Watching that window regulator is like watching a magic trick.
Boy dear Frankers sure knows how to catch a ball. What a nice dog.
Love watching the sheet metal being worked,by a skilled craftsman.
Keep the videos coming.
Drinking game! Everytime Frankers makes a cameo, take a shot. I do!
I don't think i've ever watched a window go up and down with more interest than this right rear quarter panel window in my life :) Great work as usual Scott, cheers from Australia :)
Think of all of the mathematical gymnastics that went into that regulator design.
An aircraft undercarriage guy penned that on his lunch break for a few bucks.
DAMN GOOD WORK, CAR SHOULD GO IN A MUSEUM WHEN FINISHED.
Nope. Back on the road where cars belong. Ethical husbandry such to say.
I love how the parts come off, like a jigsaw puzzle. How the quarter came off, then the whole rear pan. It really makes the car look smaller with basicly 25 to 30 percent of the body missing.
Then it all goes back together better then when it came off. "Goes together like a drawer" Lol.
In that biography of Virgil Exner published by Veloce, they say about the 1960 Fury : "The most dubious styling was seen on the 1960 Plymouth. Shown here in convertible form, the tail fins reached higher and the scalloped front end looked disjointed." I totally disagree. These fins are the most elegant ones ever seen on a car and the profile of the Fury is perfectly balanced. It deserves all the pain you're going through to restore it.
The engineers in those days were amazing-no computers-just slide rulers-awesome video as always!
I used to work on an assembly line. We only had a 45 minute lunch that was regulated by a punch-clock but that did not prevent us from driving to the bar and having a 3 beer lunch on Fridays. "We'd like three Canadians each and can you bring us the bill right away so we can pay you before we have to leave."
I suppose they would not let You back to the assembly line these days with three pints to Your face, would they?
when I was on the assembly line I brought a cooler with nine beers. One night on OT a manager said I could go for a beer right now. We went back by the ovens in the paint shop. He said, that's cold!
Learning about the window was fantastic. Whoever sat down and figured all that out is really incredible. Amazing mechanism. Love seeing the quarter panel coming to life. Great stuff!! Thanks.
certainly looking forward to part 15
"Just where are my royalties for all those guest shot appearances that I've made" ----- best quote of the day!!! The car is looking just fab.
Wow, you are absolutely, amazingly talented and funny!
The Plymouth is growing in me, I used to hate the styling of 60 and 61. Now just 61!
Yep! Still Loving this build! It just gets better. The window mech being in such great shape left more time to finish the welding on the quarter. Really fantastic seeing that come into one piece! The premier installment of "Dealers Choice" was a blast too. And great to see you and Dad playing too Frankers, love ya girl! Thanks for a really enjoyable post from my fave CMW. Cheers!
God knows how much ilove this show. I just love how you include francine,( aka frankers the dog) in every episode. I love dogs. Theyre a very important stress relief valve, to some of us. Frankers sure is a beauty. She loves to play, just like my boy Marley. Im so glad you include her, she always makes me smile. No dog can replace another. They just help us get through the pain of loss, to somewhat get past our loss. THANKS. revved up
crazy skills
What a great interesting video again. It is incredible how tight you get that rear fender. And then to think that you made it in 3 parts. I'm looking forward to the next part 👍
LOVE THE FURY!!! YOU ARE THE METAL MAN!!!
Sure beats working on the mechanism through the access hole on the inside!
... they call such overcomplicated tasks to be done through unecessary small access gynaecologist's work in my nook of the woods ....
Imagine that LOL!!! I hate that work I had to do the quarter windows on a 69 Chevelle and it sucked
Getting closer to Tearing up the highway like a big old dinosaur
Hard top window mechanisms are especially troublesome to fit. If that car were a 2-door post you could just say fuck it and grease it up and throw it in and it'd just ride in the channels up and down.
Man that quarter panel sure is coming along nicely. As far as real work goes that has been 90% of the fabrication that you've done on this car so far. Can't wait to see you whistle in that trunk floor and button the rear end of the body work up.
Another awesome installment! Something about the glamour shots of the window rolling up and down slowly reminded me of the bay doors on the Death Star opening or closing. And the sound deadener glop flashed me back to age 13, dorking around on my '52 Ford. I decided the gas tank needed the undercoating completely removed (why?!). I quickly got sick of trying to have at it with a putty knife, and grabbed the air chisel. Tore a 1.5" hole in it in short order.
Ah! Keep fit windows. Love em.
Fantastic, inspiring and impressive worker on the Fury, combined with fun and Frankers frolics. Great to see the progress.
And to think i was going to take my sorry ass to bed early. Glad I didn't! I'm always happy to see that there's someone out there besides myself that is willing to put so much of their time and energy into building something that'll become part of themselves. This thing really makes me happy.
It's coming along nice. I had one of those same tubes of grease for years. Had a good laugh at that cassette deck.
********* Hey Scott, I love your channel and everything you're engaged in. One thing I enjoyed in one of your previous episodes was you playing your electric guitar. I thought it would be nice to see you & your musical buddies playing a song together for a few seconds, then cutting the visual to whatever you're doing mechanically wise with the music you're playing continuing on as back ground music.
Hi Laurent! Well, that would be fun! I usually just throw the musical bits together here at the computer by playing one track at a time, just because recording live music is quite difficult to make sound like anything... Perhaps we'll give it a go sometime...Cheers!
Rock on btothers!
I can't imagine how difficult the quarter window regulator would have been without the outer side being open. The project on this car is the most work I've ever seen. You are an incredible workman and highly skilled. Thanks for sharing these videos as they are interesting and I look forward to the final outcome. I'd love a video on the 46-48 Chrysler that's in your yard.
Well seems like I’m rewatching all the Fury episodes! Watching this made me think, you need a 3D print guy in your team, those small plastic things can be produced these days and when metal printing becomes more mainstream those metalclips will be doable also! Happy days for carguys, when you can actually use ”new” small hardware for restoring vars!
I love Cold War Motors! Can’t get enough. Thanks for sharing
'What did you do at work today Dad'?..".Uhhh...I rolled windows up and down".Is it ok if I tell people you fish?
Finally . A show that I can relax to . - Awesome !
Great Work! I just enjoy see this project come together. Thanks for sharing your love of old iron cars and trucks.
Somewhere, up "there", is a large group of "real" auto body mechanics, from the '40s, '50s, and '60s, thrusting their fists into the heavens, proclaiming "YEAH"!! This is nothing short of amazing, and I'm an old, pain in the a** curmudgeon... I hope that Gene Winfield is watching...
Uuuh, a new vid from CWM! You cannot imagine how excited I become every time. I immediately hit the 👍 button even before watching it!
Now let's watch it finally...
There’s a lot like you out there!
Dear@@billbord3205
I really hope so because I wish really hard that this great channel grows fast over 100.000 subscribers.
Best regards.
I never realized how precise the window mechanism...
Has to be!
Incredible!
So cool!
This Plymouth project is like a walk to Grandma’s house.
Half of the fun is getting there!
Hell yeah ! Awesome stuff. Beats everything on tv
Hi Finney, when you said stumpwater and corn squeezings in the same sentence, i just had to respond. I live way out in the country, and my grandpa was a moonshiner. He never held a steady job. He made tennessee white corn liquor, ( his words ). Cheers from Mi. revved up yooper
Watching how the window mechanism operates.. mind blown
super nice work man, saving a classic that would have been melted down and made into 4 Hyundai shitboxes.
And a Kia!
Jelly bean shitboxes! At least five i figure.
REALLY enjoy watching these videos! Beating sheet metal like you do is rapidly becoming a lost art, even among serious hot rodders. You, sir , are an artist! I also love being able to see the difference between The Canadian and American model cars. The Buick straight 8 was especially good to see, as I am a big Buick fan. Eight in a row makes it go!
Thank you for inviting us into your world again Scott! You do amazing work.
Thanks for watching this stuff... cheers!
The window mechanism is just beautiful they way it works and the lovely hand formed panel, a treat for the eyes. Yes, more "Dealer's Choice" too.
I don't know what else to say except, 'Nice, really nice'. Really good idea hanging the quarter to work on it. So much work, I love watching you work with your methodology as you go. Thanks for sharing.
The Best for entertainment on YT.
im really enjoying this rebuild,the beast is shaping up so well ,i luv these old plymouths,theyve so got the cool factor.
Thank you for a super video.The Plymouth 1960 is coming along very nicely. Amazing work, Give a cheer to Franker's.CHEERS.
I can't wait to see this machine going for paint !! I hope you keep it original
Totally amazed at how you are bringing this car back from virtually nothing . Your skills are true metal artistry !
Fantastic. Always a treat. That quarter window reminds me of how the window works on a 69 nova. Kinda twists and turns along the way.
I could watch that window go up and down all day. Fantastic mechanism.
Hi Scott,
I want to thank you and agent 223 for another great video. I am so happy that this1960 Plymouth Fury is getting the chance to live again.
I am so amazed by your metal fabrication skills and overall eye for details Scott. Thank you for making this car your #1 priority and staying the course to completion.
The backwards guitar sounds at the end reminds me of that old song by Kenny Rogers, "I just stopped in to see what condition my condition was in"
With the screen doing the "backwards LP" spin, nice!
Food for thought. Those clips that holds glass to regulator, look just like the clips that holds tailgate glass to the regulator in an 86 Jeep Grand Wagoneer. They are probably still available.
Those mopars have the best looking rooflines! Ever!
I love the music and whispered 'Dealers Choice' - gold!
Hey Pete! Thanks for checkin it out; glad you had a laugh like we did putting that nonsense together...Just watching the latest Siggy vid, what a fantastic transformation! All the best buddy... Watch for a text here...More Plymouth mayhem!
Awwwww fuck yeah. Great way to wind down after a long 12 hour work day. Always a good time seeing these pop up in my notifications.
Hi Scott,
I think hundreds of years ago in a past life, you must have been a master armorer who made armor, swords and spears by hand for a king. You're that good.
I've got a 1991 Nissan Pathfinder with a factory cassette deck that sometimes does the same can't-get-the-cassette-out thing. I just hit the eject button about 100 times over the course of several days and one fine day, my cassette came out. Now, I'm afraid to put one in... LOL
Looks great Scot! I use a 1 inch wide scraper to remove the tar crud. You know, the ones with the yellow handle. I sometimes break a handle or two or chip the blade.
Man, that rear window is a seriously cool piece of engineering! Some engineer really earned his money back then!
I'm loving it! It's hard to imagine all of the hours you'll have into the Fury when you get it all done. But, I think it's going to be well worth every minute of it! You are truly a master of what I hope isn't a dying art. You're skill and patientce is surpassed by no one I know of. Thank you for taking us along on this journey with you! I'll be anxiously awaiting the next installment. Until then, God Bless, and keep up the amazing work!
I'm a little jealous of your "inventory". Keep saving 'em from the crusher.
What an amazing piece of engineering that window mechanism is! And it was made 60 years ago!
Chip Fouse is a good car man But guys like you inpress me your work says it all!!!
Thought I was the only one that hit the lie button even before watching. So far I haven’t been wrong! 3 A.M. inbox surprise from CWM. Been waiting for part 14. Thanks!
I do that too!
@@davidpringle8089 me three always good
Hell yes, you can hit that like, i usually watch first, but either way, you just know its going to be good!
Thanks so much for this. Got a '60 myself (a Buick, actually) with a passenger power window that only rolls down partway and I've been trying to figure out what's up with it. This makes things much clearer, even though the mechanism is a bit different.
My eyes go red just seeing the notice of a new episode.
Man oh man is he super fast with a body hammer. Amazing.
Yeah I envy this Paul dude. He knows a good body and paint guy.
Hooray for closing music and it’s obverse! Ask me sometime about Chryslers window regulator guy,
Thomas Rhombus. An eccentric, pious guy. He finally threw in the towel and retired when windows did not roll down completely.
Scott, I believe installing window regulators with the quarter panel removed is cheating.😁Good work.🤛🏻
I am watching this again, waiting impatiently for the day the Fury rolls out of your shop properly tidied!
I love the action on that rear quarter window, it's little things like that that make classic cars so much fun. The quarter really shaped up nicely!
Excellent, on ANZAC day in Australia we get the gift of a new CMW video and Frankers in an EarlyCitroen 2CV . She has great taste like her Dad !
Always excited to see a Fury update! Scott, you're doing a great job on her! It's funny, when I was younger I didn't really care about the looks of this car but now I'm loving it! Can't wait to see you driving her around!
There’s enough metal in that quarter to build a smart car!
Exile on Main Street and Cold War Motors. 2 true masterpieces.
The devil is in the details. Enjoyed going back and seeing this part of the project. As Scott said the window engineering is pretty amazing. Scott said at 23:51 "I'm excited to have it this far." Its an amazing image of this thrice spliced Fury when you look at the end state as they are tuning it up for the final details four years later. Just another daily driver. Ashley 2 M3 Bemmers. Its an emerging illness.
Great- as always! That rear window fix is an important part of the Fury’s exclusive FourSixty Air Conditioning System!
My favorite videos on youtube.......Keep up the good work.
great episode as usual.. ps that M3 is worth a fortune . most owners don't even drive them. they just park them in a garage and look at them now and then
Amazing work like what your doing. 👍👍👍👍👍✌
Next on CBC2, " High load window events and how to avoid them" the full story...
seems incredible that window mech would have been designed 60+ years ago -complicated operation by stamped plates and pivoting slides-amazing to see it the right way round for a change lol
Amazing progress!!! So glad your saving this one, she's going to be a really pretty car!!. Your abilities are impressive, the kind of craftsmanship you have is a dyeing art
That’s some amount of work for ‘ daily beats’ material!
Great video as always and man have a tidy up for goodness sake lol.
You can round off some brake lines in an emergency. Too funny! Love watching your channel.
anzac day here in christchurch nz.sheer delight to finish the day with some more same ol shit.
