The coolest part about these had to have been the cross ram intake.

The...cross ram intake available on Polara models with the Wedge engine.

to me it’s a bizarre setup. i’m not aware of any Australian market cars with anything like that

I believe the reasons here were, ability to fit a dual carburetor setup under a low hood, room for those extra carbs and ease of setting up carburetor heat risers, straight runners (to allow for easy airflow), and the usual reasons for a longer runner - good atomization and constructive resonance at low RPM.

Like this, but sideways instead of up:

‘61 Dodge models and the ‘61 Fury were more alike in the sheet metal than it would appear at first glance. Here’s a D-5 00 with the nose of a Fury:

Bingo. By increasing and tuning the length of the intake runners Chrysler could get more bottom and mid-range torque out of the same engine.

Good looking cars.

So did they also include a pair of Minis to help you in and out of parking spaces, or did you have to supply your own tugs?

I’ve got the sneaking suspicion I’ve also seen a Polara/Dart family Dodge nose on a Fury, but I couldn’t seem to find it.

That’s because the Australian market is still trying to figure out which side the steering wheel belongs on. (They haven’t yet...)

And condense more fuel on the way to the intake ports on cold mornings, I should think.

Believe it or not, i ts actually smaller than the most popular family car on the market today.
