“Quality is so-so but they might interest somebody.”
Have you ever posted a pic that didn’t interest somebody Mark ? thanks for posting.

Ah the Sabre-Fury, all that power, surely the ultimate piston fighter if it had gone into production ?

Being a ‘hotrodder/dragracer’ (cars) , I fully appreciate the ‘hotrodded’ Fury’s , R-4360 + Fury Ummm !! ‘Critical Mass’ being my favourite ( even though it’s only got a R-3350).

6 Fury racers in the link below, info on some probably a little out of date now

Sorry Stringbag,Baby Gorilla was purchased by Paul Morgan and flown until his unfortunate loss in it.Paul was,I believe,looking into the remanufacture of sleeves which is the critical shortage with the Centaurus so I guess this has stopped.There must be some sort of supply around as most Furies have been converted to R-3350,what did TFC use?Cheers,Pete

I take it those fantastic smokewinders weren’t on for very long then?

Hera is some pictures of Ellsworth Getchells airplane taken at the Moffet airshow in 2003 and EAA Golden west airshow in 2004.

I do believe I recognise the gentleman in the Iraqi painted Fury at Duxford in September of 93 😎
