I've noticed that most of my posts so far have been over relatively small cars, and while those are great, we all know that not everyone wants a small vehicle. Let's face it, our mindset on cars can sometimes become  "bigger is better", and today's car is perfect for someone with that mindset.

This is a 1975 Plymouth Grand Fury Custom that is listed on Kansas City Craigslist for $1800. Just stop and think about that for a second. $1800 for that much vintage Detroit metal! As an added bonus, this car is essentially the same car used by John Belushi and Dan Akyroyd in the 1980 cult classic "The Blues Brothers". Anyone that can't get excited about the possibility of scoring a full-size, vintage mopar for less than two grand that was featured in a famous car chase film is probably on the wrong site. Here's the link to the Fury on Craigslist:

Of course, the car does seem to have a small rust problem and I'm sure that it isn't exactly  economical on gasoline, but, as Elwood Blues said of it "It was a steal...it has a 440 cube plant, and was a model made before catalytic converters so it runs good on regular gas." I would be willing to bet that this one even has a functional cigarette lighter!
