1977 Chrysler New Yorker Brougham Hardtop Survivor on 2040-cars
Colonial Heights, Virginia, United States
|
1977 Chrysler New Yorker. 40,140 mile Survivor. 100% original paint in magnificent condition. All chrome and trim magnificent. Zero rust, including under vinyl top. Interior impeccable. Great color combo, no ugly belt molding. This is the one you want. 440-4bbl runs smooth and strong and quiet, you forget it's running, but it has that unique Thermoquad sound when the secondary valves open. Rebuilt and re-cored original radiator about 400 miles ago, installed 3 row in place of the original 2 row. A/C blows cold, R134a conversion. Flushed system, replaced compressor, dryer, expansion valve, and O-rings. Replaced valve cover gaskets. Wheel bearings freshly packed. Original undercoating. Burgundy cloth interior immaculate, drive it anyplace in comfort. Window gaskets and weather stripping are great, car is very quiet inside when all four windows are up, no howling or wind noise. All emissions equipment still in place for those in California or other places where it matters. Wipers work and park, washer fluid squirts from wiper arms like it should. Car starts like it should no matter how hot or cold out. Power seat works, fender mounted signals work, hazards, brake lights, everything. Current Virginia inspection. Runs drives and stops like a 40,000 mile car should. Wear points like driver's armrest aren't worn. Headliner is perfect. Washer and overflow bottle under the hood are not discolored. Car is flat out magnificent and it might easier to discuss the few details that are not. The only thing that doesn't work is the 8-track deck, it might need a belt. AM FM radio works fine on all four original speakers. The front passenger's door doesn't lock, I'm pretty certain the plunger linkage is just a little bent inside. The plunger probably got snagged on a coat or something at some point since 1977. The door closes and latches fine. I didn't want to disassemble the mint door panel to fix it since you damage that pressboard material a tiny bit each time no matter how careful you are and I don't leave the car alone or in places I'd feel the need to lock it. Very top of back seat cloth is slightly faded. Tiny hairline cracks in steering wheel by spokes, but you won't find a better one, see pic. One flaw in driver's door pull. See pic. This is how a 40,000 mile original should be, and you won't be disappointed. Please contact me to ask about anything you'd like. Come see it and drive it or arrange to send your inspector to my garage. If you opened this listing and know what a survivor is, you know what you should expect. I require a $500 non-refundable deposit due to my paypal within 24 hours of auction's end. Car must be retrieved within 15 days of auction's end, it will remain in my garage while you get here. If you can't pick up, I will coordinate with you for transport upon receipt of full payment, clear Virginia title in my name will be posted by USPS registered mail. Car is for sale locally, reserve right to end auction early. I've done my best to describe the car exactly as it is, minor flaws included. Serious hobbyists or collectors only please. These may not be worth a fortune, but is too nice to be someone's beater. |

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.

Ferrari families have 'agreement' to prevent takeover
Thu, Oct 22 2015With its initial public offering already a massive success, Ferrari is now officially a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange. While anyone can buy those shares, don't expect investors to take control away from some of the top owners of the Prancing Horse anytime soon. To maintain their power, Enzo Ferrari's son, Piero, and Exor chairman John Elkann will sign a deal guaranteeing themselves nearly half of the automaker's voting rights, Bloomberg reports. As part of this arrangement, shareholders that agree to hang onto Ferrari stock for at least three years would receive additional voting rights in the company, and that would give Piero and Elkann a combined 48.7 percent of the automaker by banding together. While not quite complete control, the move should be enough to prevent a takeover of the business. "We have an agreement among the families to protect our interests in Ferrari," Piero said to Bloomberg. This agreement won't really become a concern until next year because only 10 percent of Ferrari will be traded for now. FCA will distribute another 80 percent to its shareholders in early 2016, and Elkann's Exor will be getting the largest portion of the Prancing Horse in the spin-off. Meanwhile, Piero holds the remaining 10 percent but has absolutely no intention to sell his stake in his father's business. The newly public Ferrari will push to grow volume with a goal of moving 9,000 vehicles annually by 2019. To reach that 30-percent boost, expect to see a new model every year, and some of them might use a new, modular platform that's reportedly under development. Related Video:
