Runs, drives, stops, clean title. 1966 New Yorker two door hard top, 118,000 miles.
Sold new in Los Angles, and was there until 2002 when it was bought to Wisconsin as a summer vehicle by a local collector. He summered the car until 2010 when the reverse band broke in the transmission and he put the car into storage. I bought the car from him in 2012 and put it in my garage and began working on it. Life got in the way and I didn't work on it as much I had planned. There it sat until a few months ago when I focused on it and got it back on the road. So long story short, it spent most of it's life in Cali, and came to Wisconsin and was cared for. It's never been driven in winter and subject to road salt. It wasn't sitting in someones yard or field rotting away. It still has the factory brake lines on it, and they are perfect. The brake line fittings came off with open ended wrenches. Ivory paint with black leather, bucket seats with fold down arm rest, power drivers seat, power windows, Air Conditioning, tinted glass, dual exhaust, power drum brakes, AM radio, 350 horsepower 440 cubic inch motor, 4 barrel carb, 727 Torqueflight automatic trans, 14 inch wheels with new tires Solid California car. Still has most of the factory under coating still on it. Solid floors. Solid trunk. Solid rockers. Solid doors. One small rust hole behind one of the fender skirts, another small hole on the inside behind the rear wheel well. They don't get much more solid than this. The pictures show it missing two pieces of trim, I have those two pieces. Was told by the previous owner that he had the heads redone and hardened valve seats installed. I have done the following repairs: Rebuilt the transmission, New front and rear brakes (New drums, shoes, hardware, wheel cylinders, hoses, adjusters) New front and rear shocks New front wheel bearings New rear axle bearings New axle housing end (bearing failed and wrecked the housing end) New upper ball joints, control arm bushings, bump stops New inner and outer tie rod ends, idler arm, pitman arm New wheel studs on the left side of the car (all wheel studs are now right hand thread) New lower ball joints and lower bump stops New motor mounts New dipstick and tube New master cylinder (replaced the original single piston MC with a 1967 Chrysler dual piston MC) New spark plugs, wires, cap and rotor New battery Had it aligned after I did all the front end work New R134a compatible AC Compressor, new receiver/drier, car was missing a couple lines when I got it and I am having those made now, as soon as I get them the system, will be hooked up and charged with freon. A lot of extra parts including a bunch of NOS Chrysler parts included. New custom door panels Drivers seat recovered and re-padded Rear seat bottom recovered and re-padded. Passenger rear window doesn't work, it needs a motor. Headliner is perfect Dash pad is perfect Mechanically it is 9.5/10 Interior is 9/10 Body is 8.5/10 Paint is 7/10 A great car with tons of potential to be a stunning car; or rock it as it is. it's not the project that so many old cars turn into. I've done all that. It's all there. You can get in it and start enjoying it right away. I have too many toys and not enough space. I am driving the car so the mileage will go up. I spent all day yesterday washing it and waxing it. It shined up real nice! I also cleaned up the dash and vacuumed the carpets. I will get some new pictures and post them tomorrow when it stops raining. |

Chrysler names six new board directors
Mon, 16 Jun 2014Executives may call the shots day-to-day at the world's leading automakers - much as they do at any other corporation - but the ultimate decision-making body remains the board of directors. And Chrysler has just named six new members to its board.
The appointments include Hermann Waldemer, the former CFO of Philip Morris International - the tobacco giant whose Marlboro brand has funneled untold billions into Ferrari as the Scuderia's title sponsor for decades, and on whose board Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne sits. Waldemer replaces Doug Steenland, who came to the Chrysler board after Northwest Airlines (at which he served as CEO) merged with Delta, and whose term on the board expired just days ago.
In addition to the Waldemer appointment, Chrysler has expanded its board with five more seats, all filled by existing group executives. Among them are Reid Bigland (head of US and Canadian sales and of the Ram truck brand), Fiat general counsel Giorgio Fossati, human resources director Michael J. Keegan, Jeep CEO Michael Manley, and group CFO Richard Palmer.
What will the next Presidential limo look like?
Thu, 25 Jul 2013With recent news that the Secret Service has begun soliciting proposals for a new armored limousine, we've been wondering what the next presidential limo might look like. The current machine, nicknamed "The Beast", has a design based on a car that's no longer sold: the Cadillac DTS. If General Motors gets the job again, which wouldn't be a surprise considering the government still owns a chunk of the company, the next limo's shape would likely resemble the new XTS (below, left). But Cadillac hasn't always been the go-to car company for presidential whips.
Lincoln has actually provided far more presidential limousines throughout history than Cadillac. In fact, the first car modified for Commander-in-Chief-carrying duty was a 1939 Lincoln K-Series called "Sunshine Special" used by Franklin D. Roosevelt, and the last Lincoln used by a president was a 1989 Town Car ordered for George H.W. Bush. If President Obama wanted a Lincoln today, it would likely be an amalgam of the MKS sedan and MKT crossover, as illustrated above.
And what about Chrysler? The only record we could find of a President favoring the Pentastar is Nixon, who reportedly ordered two limos from the company during his administration in the '70s, and then another one, known today as the "K-Car limo," in the '80s after he left office. Obama, however, has a personal - if modest - connection to Chryslers, having owned a 300 himself before he took office. A 300-based Beast (above, right) would certainly earn the U.S. some style points.
Mystery shoppers love Infiniti, hate Tesla
Tue, Jul 12 2016Infiniti, followed by Lexus tied with Mercedes-Benz took the top two spots for best sales experience according to mystery shoppers from the latest Pied Piper Prospect Satisfaction Index, while EV manufacturer Tesla recorded the lowest overall score. Not surprisingly, premium brands dominated the top ranks. Including the three already mentioned, luxury brands occupied seven of the top ten spots and included Audi, BMW, Porsche, and the only American brand to crack the upper echelon, Cadillac. Toyota, Volkswagen, and Nissan rounded out the first ten positions. The news for domestic automakers isn't good. Aside from Caddy, the only other star-spangled automaker to score above the industry average is Chrysler. The rest of FCA, most of GM, and all of Ford fell below the line. But Pied Piper's mystery shoppers handed Tesla the biggest walloping – the company is ten full points below the next lowest brand, Volvo, and its score of 86 is 17 below the average of 103. It's baffling, considering the company's touted direct-sales model. "Tesla leaves me scratching my head," Fred O'Hagan, Pied Piper's president and CEO, told Wards Auto. "They own all of their stores, so you would think each one would be doing the same thing. But they're not. Tesla is consistent in its inconsistencies." O'Hagan added that there's a "huge variation" in Tesla's store-to-store effectiveness, and that in some cases, shoppers found showroom workers that acted more like "museum curators," Wards Auto reports. It might be popular to call Tesla the Apple of the car world, but based on Pied Piper's work, the brand has a long way to go to emulate the uniform shopping experience of an Apple Store. The news might be bad for Tesla, but even for the brands that scored below average, there's cause for celebration. Only Tesla and Mini lost points in this year's rankings, and only Mercedes and Lincoln held steady. Every other brand, including Infiniti, which topped the index for the first time, gained at least one point. The biggest improvements belong to Porsche, Land Rover, and Mitsubishi, which all jumped five points. Pied Piper's annual Prospect Satisfaction Index uses mystery shoppers – over 6,100 this year – from across the country to assess dealers and generate rankings from over 50 individual factors.
