New Here - Introducing my '62 Fury

[Furyous62]

Hi,
New to the forum. I have a 1962 Plymouth Fury. It was bought brand new in November of 1961 off the Showroom floor by my Great Grandpa. Been in the family ever since. My Dad drove it to his High School Prom.
It was wrecked when 96 yr old Great Grandma ran a stop sign and was parked in a unoccupied pigeon coop. My Grandpa, Dad, and I got it back on the road in 1999, about 15 yrs later, and it was my daily driver through college.
It sat while I moved around the country for work and now I'm working to get it running again. Hopefully this community can help.

Thank you for the warm welcome. Figured I'd post the original window sticker as some might find it interesting.
