1963 Chrysler New Yorker Rare 1 Of 593!!! on 2040-cars

 Selling my 1963 Chrysler New Yorker Salon. This a rare car! They only made the Salon model in 63-64. In 63 they built 593 and in 64 they built 1,621. Thats only a total of 2,214 in 2 years! This car has every option including AC, Power Steering, Power Brakes, Auto Pilot (cruise control), Power windows, Power seat, head rest, Arm rest in front and rear, rear cigarette lighters, map lights.....etc. See the pictures for the full list. It has a 413cu V8 with a automatic push button transmission.

I bought this car as a project because its just cool, but I just don't have the time to fix it. When I got it there was no radiator, air cleaner, or starter, but everything else seems to be there and original. After I bought it I put in a new starter, plugs, wires, and carb kit, but could never get it started. It turns over slow so I put a oil pump primer on it and it wouldnt' pump. I installed a new oil pump but still could never get oil to the top end of the motor and that is as far as I got. I think theres a possible oil passage blocked or bad bearing in the motor somewhere which isnt allowing oil to the top of the motor. I have not pulled the motor and verified this though. The tires are currently flat but should air up fine.

 There is some rust in a few places as well as some bondo on the hood and trunk lid and wheel wells. It appears to have been repainted at some point, but most of the clear coat is gone on the top side.

I have the original owners manual where the dealer filled out the info on the car. It was originally sold in New York and even have the name of the dealership that sold it!

This would make a great restoration project but I just don't have the time or the funds right now and would rather see someone get her running then just let it sit longer. I have a clear Title. Feel free to ask questions. I also have this car for sale locally, so reserve the right to end the auction early.


Payment is to be paid in CASH upon pickup and should be picked up within 2 weeks of auction end unless other arrangements are made.

FCA cuts powertrain warranties to 60k miles

Fri, May 29 2015

FCA US is cutting back the mileage of its powertrain warranty on some 2016 model year vehicles. Rather than the current five years/100,000 miles of coverage, the new amount is five years/60,000 miles for gasoline-fueled models from Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge and Ram. In March 2015, General Motors made a similar switch to five-years/60,000-miles of coverage for Chevrolet and GMC, and FCA US seems to be citing this as part of the reason for the shift. "Following changes already made by competitors, FCA US is adjusting powertrain warranty coverage for 2016 model year vehicles to be more consistent with industry practices," the automaker said in a portion of its statement. The bumper-to-bumper warranty for these vehicles is unchanged at three years/36,000 miles. According to Automotive News, Fiat's warranty is remaining at four years/50,000 miles. When it changed the mileage limit, GM also halved the number of free service visits for Chevy, GMC, and Buick to two from the previous four. The automaker claimed that the reason for the adjustments to its coverage was that a long warranty was seldom a reason for customers to buy a vehicle.

The basic coverage, also known as "bumper to bumper," remains at 3 years/36,000 miles. # # # News Source: FCA US, Automotive News - sub. req.Image Credit: Mark Ralston / AFP / Getty Images Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM Car Buying Maintenance Ownership FCA warranty fca us powertrain

Fiat and UAW back at negotiating table over Chrysler stake

Mon, 23 Dec 2013

We knew there'd be no Chrysler IPO before the end of this year, but Fiat is determined to get the best run going into 2014 and is back at the poker table with the UAW. The delay was said to be Chrysler's desire to clean up a tax issue with the IRS; turns out that also bought the carmaker time to try and close a deal for the UAW's 48.5-percent stake in the company before the IPO happens.
Whereas the price Chrysler was willing to pay was once more than $1 billion under the UAW's asking price, the gap has closed to just $800 million of late. A recent valuation of the company at $10 billion - a valuation the UAW has disputed - means Fiat would be looking to pay about $4.2 billion instead of the $5 billion that the UAW seeks. But the UAW needs to hold out for the highest amount it can get because its pension obligations through the Voluntary Employee Benefit Association (VEBA) are $3.1 billion greater than the VEBA's assets, which include the Chrysler stake.
There's a clause in the agreement that Fiat can buy the VEBA shares for $6 billion, but Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne has said that the UAW "should buy a ticket for the lottery" if they even want $5 billion. The UAW, though, has more time to wait; it's Fiat that wants access to Chrysler's $11.9-billion war chest and that would like to avoid the risk of paying the full $6 billion for the UAW share if the float really takes off. With other valuations of Chrysler as high as $19 billion, a hot IPO could make that $6 billion look like a bargain.

Chrysler recalls 1.2 million Ram pickup trucks

Sat, 09 Nov 2013

Chrysler has announced that it will issue three separate recalls that will cover as many as 1.2 million Ram pickup trucks for "steering-system tie rods that may have been misaligned during assembly or steering-system service." The vast majority of these trucks were sold in the United States, though some trucks in Mexico, Canada or overseas will be called in, as well.
The largest of the three recalls covers an estimated 842,400 model-year 2003-2008 Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks. Two smaller campaigns will bring 294,000 model-year 2008-2012 Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups, chassis cabs and 2008 Ram 1500 4x4 Mega Cabs; plus 43,500 model-year 2008-2012 Ram 4500 and 5500 4x4 chassis cabs into the dealer to be checked and repaired if necessary.
This is a very large recall, and Chrysler says it is "casting the net wider than necessary to identify those vehicles that require repair." The automaker estimates that "as many as 726,000 may not need repair."
