Some barn finds are cool; this one’s downright cosmic. A Florida estate sale just coughed up a 1961 Plymouth Fury sedan hiding the ultra-rare 383 SonoRamic cross-ram engine—a setup Mopar cranked out in tiny numbers for only one year.
 

Key Points

• Long-Ram Surprise: Intact 30-inch cross-ram tubes feed a 330-hp 383 V8—scarce as hen’s teeth today.

• Estate-Sale Save: A Rocket Restorations fan nabbed the car at auction, rescuing it from the crusher despite four doors and ’70s custom touches.

• Future Plans: Owner will rebuild the mill, bolt the nose back on, and cruise it unrestored—patina, push-button trans and all.

Expect the revived Fury to hit local cruise nights soon, reminding folks that weird early-’60s Mopars still have plenty of mojo left.
