1976 Chrysler New Yorker Brougham on 2040-cars
|
I have a one owner 1976 Chrysler New Yorker Brougham 4 door hardtop for sale. The '76 New Yorker is really an Imperial but Chrysler quit making the Imperial in '75 and rebadged it as a New Yorker Brougham. I am the 2nd owner. This car just turned 84,000 original miles. It has a 400 V8 4 barrel with the Lean Burn still intact. It still wears its original orange Mopar wires(however...I switched out the caps and upgraded those). This car was a barn find and I spent a ton of money on it to make it a daily driver. I enjoy rescuing cars and getting them rolling again to be enjoyed. I have over 2,200 dollars in receipts for all work done in the last 30 days that will go with the car. The tires have less than 200 miles on them. The only thing that is not original on this car are the new tires,windshield and new true exhaust(has low rumble glasspacks..not too loud but just right). No catalytic converter. It never had one. The gas tank was dropped and cleaned,new fuel lines,belts,windshield,fuel pump,plugs,the radiator flushed with new coolant,air filter,intake hose,oil change,new wipers,battery,all fuses were replaced,bulbs,floor mats and cleaning. The paint is Inca Gold and the top is original. All power options work except for the antenna. It is stuck in the "up" position. These cars came one way...loaded to the hilt. The AC blows cold and the heater works great. The original 8 track works like new and the speakers do not "crackle". It also has the rare wing window option which you don't see too often on these. There is only one small door ding on the passenger door,a small crease near the left rear marker light where the original owner hit something light. It is not very noticeable. The chrome shines like new. The electronic flip-up headlights work perfectly. There is a spec of rust about the size of a penny under the right rear quarter panel. I haven't gotten a chance to buff it out because of the weather but it will shine up really nice. It has never been in a wreck,rebuilt,or repainted. It does have a few imperfections but this car has not been restored. It doesn't need it. I am listing this for sale for well under what NADA puts it at. On a scale of 1 to 10 this car is about a 7..maybe an 8. It is a survivor. This has new plates and new tabs(if you happen to live in Washington state),a near full tank of gas and is ready to roll. If sold to someone far away,I will make sure to put some gas stabilizer in it for you before it leaves so you can get in it,turn the key,fire it up and enjoy. You will not be disappointed. This car has been all over the internet on various New Yorker sites and The Brougham Society. As of right now,this car needs very little and will look great at any shows or just cruisin'. This is daily driver if you wish or just roll around on Sundays.

NHTSA questions FCA's reaction to recalls, will hold public hearing
Wed, May 20 2015The US Department of Transportation and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration are holding a public hearing on July 2 to investigate whether FCA US is failing to fix safety problems and issue necessary notices. The agencies also want detailed accounts of the handling of 20 recalls by June 1 as part of a special order. If the Feds determine that the automaker isn't living up to its legal requirements, the result could go as far as a "buy-back or replacement of affected vehicles." "Significant questions have been raised as to whether this company is meeting its obligations to protect the drivers from safety defects, and today we are launching a process to ensure that those obligations are met," NHTSA administrator Mark Rosekind said in the announcement of the hearing. The 20 recalls that the agencies are investigating date from between 2013 and 2015. Just some of these include the action to make the fuel tanks safer on the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Liberty; FCA US' Takata inflator repairs; inadvertently deploying airbags in the Liberty, Grand Cherokee and Dodge Viper; and the company's ignition switch fix for the Chrysler Town & Country, Grand Caravan and Journey. Failure to submit reports about all of these on time could result in a $7,000 per day fine. You can read the whole list in the PDF for the special order. In a statement to Autoblog, FCA US said, "The average completion rate for FCA US LLC recalls exceeds the industry average and all FCA US campaigns are conducted in consultation with NHTSA. The Company will cooperate fully." The government agencies claim that they have received complaints from customers alleging that they weren't notified of recalls; parts not being available; difficulty getting an appointment, and misinformation from dealers. During the hearing witnesses from FCA US, NHTSA and the public have the opportunity to present evidence on each campaign. U.S. DOT Announces Fiat Chrysler Public Hearing and Issues Special Order NHTSA has concerns about 20 recalls and sets public hearing date for July 2 WASHINGTON – U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx today announced that the Department's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) will hold a public hearing to determine whether automaker Fiat Chrysler has failed to remedy safety defects and issue required notices in 20 recalls.
Chrysler recalls small number of 2013-2014 cars and trucks over engine debris
Thu, 12 Dec 2013Chrysler is recalling a small number cars over issues with their 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. The recall, which affects 522 examples of its 2013 Dodge Avenger and Chrysler 200 models, as well as 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot CUVs has to do with potential debris in the balance shaft bearings.
The abrasive stuff can cause the oil pressure to drop, which could lead to the engine stalling or outright failure. This situation could at best leave drivers stranded and at worst lead to a crash.
Chrysler will begin notifying owners, who will need to report in to have the balance shaft module replaced. All repairs are naturally free of charge. Scroll down for the bulletin from NHTSA.
Marchionne ready to get tough with GM over merger
Mon, Aug 31 2015FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne absolutely refuses to let go of his dream of a merger with General Motors. With official discussions not happening, Marchionne now hints that a hostile takeover attempt of The General could be under consideration as a future strategy. In a massive interview with Automotive News, the boss explains why a tie-up with GM might be such a windfall for both automakers. By Marchionne's numbers, a merged GM-FCA would produce $30 billion a year in global earnings and 17 million vehicles annually. He claims these huge figures are based on analyzing plants around the world to find growth opportunities. So far, GM is refusing to sit down and look at the numbers, let alone even begin to negotiate. For now, Marchionne just wants to talk, but he's not against aggressive action, if necessary. He uses a bizarre metaphor in the interview to explain his feelings. "There are varying degrees of hugs. I can hug you nicely, I can hug you tightly, I can hug you like a bear, I can really hug you. Everything starts with physical contact," he said to Automotive News. "An attack on GM, properly structured, properly financed, it cannot be refused," he said in the interview. Marchionne is looking for partners, too. The UAW's significant stake in GM could be a strong ally, and he's reportedly recruiting activist investors for more help. Selling Magneti Marelli and spinning off Ferrari would put even more cash in the war chest. Both sides also have banks at their aid. While Marchionne received positive replies from some of his "Plan B" partners, he apparently lost interest in working with them. "Are they the people I wanted to get the response from? The answer is probably not. There are people who are interested in doing deals," he said in the interview.
