Steve,

I've edited my comment to reflect what I believe to be true. Although I'm not up on these cars as well as I am the 1966 and later cars 

As far as I know, you're correct in your assessment.

I'm not really all that familiar with these mid '60s Mopars either.

Got the first couple of coats of color on the Plymouth, although it has been giving me some problems.

The paint was a little too thick for the first coat, so it wasn't going through my airbrush all that well.

I thinned it slightly & shot a second coat.

It sprayed better, but there's still a little more orange peel than I would like.

I'll thin it a bit more for the final coat.

 

As usual, I'm having difficulties showing the true color with my substandard photographic skills, but I believe the second photo depicts the correct gray-green color a bit more accurately.

The first photo just looks silver to me.

I see the model is a Fury 3.

Im not 100% positive but I don't think the 426 wedge was avail in anything  but a Sport Fury. if thats the case. it would be all engine color anyway ,,,maybe .

Possible, but as Ron has pointed out, the interior in the Johan kit is not correct for a Fury III either.

So I guess we'll just say that this is a Fury III with all of the Sport Fury options. :P

Here is a page from the 65 Plymouth Fury catalog and it shows the 426 engine with the Chrome package............and engine availability on the Sport Fury / Fury.
