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. |

FCA eliminates just under 2,000 supplemental contract workers due to coronavirus constraints
Wed, Mar 25 2020Car companies have jumped in quickly to help combat coronavirus. They’re even beginning to manufacture some of the badly needed medical supplies, like ventilators and masks. However, with stay-at-home orders sweeping across the nation and folks practicing social distancing, automotive sales and manufacturing have quickly dried up in North America. That leads us to todayÂ’s news coming out of FCA. A company spokesperson told us that approximately 2,000 supplemental workers (a subcategory of the companyÂ’s many contract workers) are being laid off. HereÂ’s the official statement from FCA: “In light of the challenges created by the COVID 19 situation, and the various ‘stay at homeÂ’ orders from multiple states, a number of development projects within FCA have been temporarily put on hold. "As a result of this, subcontract companies who were providing external support to a number of these projects have been asked to temporarily suspend their activities as we reprioritize certain initiatives and projects. We will continue to monitor the situation with the intent to return to normal activity as soon as the situation allows.” FCA made it clear in our communications with the company that it is not terminating all contract workers, nor is it terminating any employees of the company itself. The rationale here is that certain development work is on pause, so those who were contracted to be a part of that work are now out. We're told that those workers are in white-collar functions, not manufacturing jobs. We asked FCA if it had plans to reinstate all of the affected workers once the coronavirus crisis has passed, but received no commitment either way. “At this point weÂ’re going to continue to monitor the situation,” a company spokesperson told us. Questions still remain when it comes to the stimulus package moving through Congress right now as it pertains to the automotive industry. FCA says itÂ’s currently studying the bill, but hasnÂ’t offered up a comment on the situation yet. We havenÂ’t heard of any similar cuts happening at Ford or GM yet, but now that FCA has made a move, weÂ’ll be on the lookout for more. Hirings/Firings/Layoffs Chrysler Fiat coronavirus
MotorWeek reviews '83 American Motors lineup
Wed, Mar 18 2015The 30th anniversary of American Motors' 1987 sale to Chrysler by Renault is just a few years away. AMC is long dead, but for its latest peek in the archives, MotorWeek winds back the clock to somewhat happier times. Take a look at the entire AMC lineup from 1983, including its models from Jeep and Renault. The Jeeps, and to a lesser extent, the AMC Eagle, enjoy a cult following today, but it's amazing how many of these other vehicles are now practically forgotten. Even the big debut in '83 of the Renault Alliance is largely ignored. Although with a ludicrous amount of body roll and a 55-horsepower 1.4-liter engine, it's probably rightly buried.

Total auto recalls already on record pace in 2014
Tue, 08 Apr 2014If you've noticed that there have been more recalls than usual this year, you may be on to something. According to a report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the US market is on pace to break a record for recalls. In 2013, 22 million cars were recalled. We're only a third of the way through 2014, though, and we've already halved that figure, with 11 million units recalled. That's wild.
Considering the past few months, it shouldn't be a surprise that General Motors is leading the charge, with six million of the 11 million units recalled coming from one of the General's four brands. Between truck recalls, CUV recalls and the ignition switch recall, 2014 hasn't been a great year for GM.
Other recall leaders include Nissan (one million Sentra and Altima sedans), Honda (900,000 Odyssey minivans), Toyota (over one million units in a few recalls), Volkswagen (150,000 Passat sedans), Chrysler (644,000 Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs) and most recently, Ford (434,000 units, the bulk of which were early Ford Escape CUVs). So while it's been a bad year for GM so far, its competitors aren't doing too well, either.
