This is unusual, the steering wheel appears to be not perfectly round...

Normal, but I think the oval steering wheel was an option on the Fury

Is it just me or is there something "off" about the first group of pics submitted by Wampa-One? It looks like they are trying to make a 4-door hardtop look like a 4-door sedan. Notice the "b" post but the doors don't have a window frame.

:think:

Normal, the 4-door sedan had different door posts

Agreed but in this pic there's a center post and a frameless door. Chrysler products had frames around the door class od sedans. Frameless on hardtops.

You're right. This is typical movie situation = to avoid that you see the camera reflecting in the back window, the made something in cardboard or similar so you think the back window is up. For the same reason all rear-view mirrors are away on the cars in the movies.

Very cool info, Yvon52!

The rectangular steering wheel was another Chrysler feature from that period. Just imagine pushbutton automatic, and a steering your car with a square wheel! I love the 60's!

It's some sort of early '60s Plymouth, I can tell that much.

1961 Plymouth Fury 4 door hardtop : it has the full width lateral molding strip.

Another one of same type and year in same episode (5.7), according to car nerd and pilou. This one is only 2 stars

Would the rectangular steering wheel be annoying compared to a round one?

Well, it didn't last past 1961...

Crazy metal flake translucent square steering wheel. Nobody but Virgil Exneir would make such outlandish design.
