New Yorker, 440-hp, 727, Tnt, 8.75 Sure-grip, E86, U-code on 2040-cars
Jamestown, New York, United States
INTRODUCTION AND DESCRIPTION You are viewing a 1971 Chrysler New Yorker, equipped with its
orignal "numbers-matching" (engine and transmission stampings)
"U" code (E86 on fender tag), 440-HP (which stands for "High
Performance", and "HP" is stamped on the block ID pad) V8, mated
to a 727 "TorqueFlite" transmission, and a 3.23:1 ratio, 8.75 inch "Sure-Grip" rear end. The vehicle has just under 98,000 original
miles. This vehicle is being offered with no reserve. Please plan your
bid strategies accordingly as whenever auction ends, vehicle will belong to a new owner (see auction success considerations below for more information). Let me give you a few Mopar marketing names to start:
"TNT" in the Chryslers, "Magnum" in the Dodges, and
"Super Commando" in the Plymouths.
All these names refer to the 370 horsepower, 480 ft.
lbs. of torque, 9.5:1 compression engine available in the Imperials, the
Challengers, the Cudas, the Chargers, and the pursuit-class police cars in
1971. Recall that the last higher-compression, big-block B/RB engines
were produced in 1971. I bought this car a decade ago from the original owner with the intention
to restore it. The vehicle did not need very much mechanical work aside
from a tune-up and carburetor rebuilt. However,
since it has not been on the road in over three years, it will need to be gone through to be completely
roadworthy (if you are the winner, you should plan to trailer it to your destination). The vehicle easily moves under its own power and can be driven onto/off of a trailer or car
carrier. Options on this New Yorker worth noting are dual exhaust power
seats, power windows, tilt-telescoping steering column, four speaker stereo
(poor reception), air conditioning (system intact but not blowing cold air),
and power door locks (non functioning). I do have the factory build
sheet. The paint is 'Tahitian Walnut Metallic" and it has had at
least one low quality repaint in its lifetime. If restoration is planned,
it will need to be repainted as there are faded areas and assorted other imperfections
in both the finish and the sheet metal (dings, scratches, etc). The condition of the floors, trunk, and frame is shown and there is
no rust through, damage, or repairs that would affect structural integrity.
The only rust area visible is a quarter-sized hole in the rear valence
just above the passenger side exhaust pipe (the result of exhaust gas
condensation from the tailpipe position). The glass is all good and the trim and bumpers are in fair driver-quality
consistent with the age of the vehicle. Although
not shown, all the trim pieces around the rear windows are now affixed to the
vehicle. I did install a new aftermarket
carpet, new mufflers and tailpipes, and a new vinyl roof. The dash is
straight and headliner is intact. The original
vinyl seats have several defects as shown. This Chrysler New Yorker is a rare piece of American turnpike-cruising iron, with one of the most powerful engines ever put into a passenger car up to that time: the "TNT" 440-HP, the same powertrain as the legendary Chrysler, Plymouth, and Dodge-branded muscle and police cars from a bygone era. I hope a potential new buyer will take the slow, steady affordable approach to the restoration of this car so it can chew up turnpikes like it did in the old days. Alternatively, if you intend to part it out for a Dodge or Plymouth "muscle car" project, or any other reasons, that’s your choice of course too. I mean where else are you going to find a real, matching, unmolested original 440-HP TNT engine, 727 transmission, and 3.23 Sure-Grip laying around these days? AUCTION SUCCESS CONSIDERATIONS I have established a reasonable reserve (reserve will not be revealed while the auction is running) for this 1971 Chrysler New Yorker. Please consider bidding during the auction to the extent and level you deem appropriate and based on whatever factors are important to you. Again this vehicle is being offered with no reserve. Please plan your bid strategies accordingly, because if the auction runs its full course this vehicle will belong to the highest bidder. Vehicle is also for sale locally so please note that I reserve the right to end this auction early at my sole discretion. . I am sorry in advance for the following realizing it will not apply to the vast majority of responsible Ebay members: Encountering non-paying or unresponsive bidders is a very disruptive event that makes the auction experience quite unpleasant for both the seller and any legitimate potential buyer(s). Please BE SURE BEFORE YOU BID that you have done whatever you need to do to STAND BEHIND the actual bid(s) YOU MADE and were recorded during the auction. Because of a tendency to simply misunderstand or just outright ignore Ebay and seller auction requirements, bidders with less than 5 (five) feedback ratings may, at my discretion have their bids canceled (I may or may not try to contact you before canceling your bid) and then blocked from further bidding on this auction unless they contact me in advance of bidding. Bidders who make and then cancel their bid(s) will also be blocked from further bidding on this auction. INSPECTION AND WARRANTY INFORMATION Please ask any questions that you may have that may not have been answered by this detailed listing narrative and visual media attachments. My listings are constructed in complete sentences in order to communicate my knowledge of important facts and to encourage independent thoughts and then any questions from interested parties. But respectfully, I do not know what is important to you that may not have been discussed or depicted herein unless you ask me. Any and all relevant and appropriate questions you submit while the auction is running will be answered promptly and as thoroughly as possible by email only to ensure clarity of any correspondences. Given that this is a used vehicle, please do not have unreasonable expectations as to its current condition or future condition under your ownership. Also given its obvious age, this vehicle represents whatever standards of design, quality, and workmanship that existed when it was built, so comparisons to improved build standards of today's vehicles is not appropriate. Your bid forms the basis for a binding, legally enforceable contract. As such, if you require it, please make all pre-purchase inspections (at the sole expense of the bidder) before committing to purchase the vehicle. Inspections can be done by appointment only by you or your designated inspection service. Although I believe I have described and depicted (with numerous high-resolution photographs) this vehicle accurately, please note that this vehicle is sold "as-is, where-is” with no express or implied warranties or guarantees of any kind. PAYMENT AND STORAGE A $500 deposit is required from the winning bidder, due electronically via PayPal within 24 hours after the auction ends, to hold the vehicle. I will not be accepting trades. Full payment is due within 3 days of auction end via cash, wire transfer, or certified bank check (drawn on a major US bank). Clear title in my name is in hand and vehicle can be scheduled for buyer pickup by appointment at anytime after full payment is received and cleared. I can hold the vehicle for 15 days (or longer, if weather or other uncontrollable factors emerge) at no charge to the winning bidder after the auction (the charge is $5.00 per day after 15 days). Thank you for viewing my auction. |

2025 SRT Hellcat concepts as previewed by high schoolers
Thu, Jan 21 2016Fiat Chrysler Automobiles has some very talented designers in its ranks. Like any good company, though, the automaker is always on the lookout for early talent. Even if they're still in high school. One of those talent-seeking initiatives is the company's Drive for Design contest, an event open to tenth-, eleventh-, and twelfth-grade students that are hoping for a future in design. For this year's event, students from across the country were given a shot to design their vision for a 2025 model-year Dodge SRT Hellcat. The results are impressive, as you can see in the gallery above. First place went to Ben Treinen, from Archbishop Moeller High School in Cincinnati. Second place was the only award to go to a student outside the Rust Belt, with Macon, GA's Harrison Kunselman, a student at Mount de Sales Academy taking the silver. Third place was won by a metro Detroiter – Bloomfield Hills High School student Hwanseong Jang, while fourth went to Andrew Gombac of Loyola Academy in Wilmette, IL. According to FCA, all four winners will have their sketches on display at the 2016 Autorama at Cobo Center at the end of February. They'll also win some pretty nifty prizes. First place will get a new Apple MacBook Pro, while second, third, and fourth get the new Apple iPad Pro and Apple Pencil (arguably just as good of a prize for budding designers). All four finishers will also attend a three-week automotive design course at Detroit's prestigious College for Creative Studies, have dinner with FCA designers, and score three passes to Autorama. FCA will cover travel and lodging to Auburn Hills. Read on for the official blast from FCA. Related Video: FCA US Design Team Announces Winners of Drive for Design Contest January 19, 2016 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - The FCA US LLC Design team today announced four winners in this year's Drive for Design contest. The FCA US Drive for Design contest challenged U.S. high school students in grades 10-12 to design a Dodge SRT Hellcat for the year 2025. "The Drive for Design contest continues to be a great way for the FCA US Design team to connect with students that show an interest in art and design," said Mark Trostle – Head of Dodge and SRT Design, FCA US LLC.
Takata airbag recall claims 209k Chrysler, Dodge vehicles
Fri, Dec 12 2014Chrysler is expanding the scope of its front passenger side Takata airbag inflator recall yet again to include 139,115 additional vehicles for a total of 208,783 units now needing these parts replaced. The latest campaign affects the passenger side inflators of the 2003-2005 Dodge Ram 1500, 2003-2005 Dodge Ram 2500, 2003-2005 Dodge Ram 3500, 2004-2005 Durango; 2005 Dakota pickup; 2005 Dodge Magnum and 2005 Chrysler 300 (pictured above), 300C and SRT8. It's limited to vehicles purchased or ever registered in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas and the territories of American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, Saipan and the US Virgin Islands. The company expects owners to be notified by February 8. The automaker just expanded the replacement campaign last week to include passenger side inflators in 149,150 pickups from the 2003 model year. However, the parts are not the same. Chrysler says this recall is for the PSPI family of components versus SPI for the last one. The company is also not aware of any injuries or accidents in its vehicles from these potentially faulty inflators, and lab testing of 600 of them finds no issues. Despite this, Chrysler is repairing these models at the request of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Scroll down to read the company's full announcement of the initiative. Statement: Air-bag Inflator (Regional Field Action Expansion) December 12, 2014 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - Chrysler Group is expanding an ongoing regional field action with a recall to replace front passenger-side air-bag inflators in an estimated 208,783 older-model vehicles originally purchased or ever registered in seven U.S. states and five territories. The vehicles are equipped with front passenger-side air-bag inflators from a product family code-named "PSPI." Chrysler Group is unaware of any injuries or accidents involving PSPI inflators of the type covered by this campaign, nor has a Chrysler Group investigation identified a defect in these components. Further, laboratory tests on nearly 600 such inflators did not result in any failures. The inflators affected by this campaign differ in design and construction from PSPI inflators used by other auto makers. They also benefited from a more robust manufacturing process. However, at the request of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), Chrysler Group is expanding its replacement action beyond its original scope of Florida, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the U.S.
Chrysler celebrates 30 years of minivans with special editions
Tue, 03 Sep 2013It's been known by many names: the Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Caravan, Plymouth Voyager, Chrysler Voyager, Lancia Voyager, Volkswagen Routan, Ram Cargo Van... but the bottom line is that Chrysler's minivans have defined the segment for 30 years now. In fact, Chrysler says it has sold 13 million of them since 1983, helped along by the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan that accounted for nearly half of all minivans sold in the United States just last year. So to celebrate this three-decade milestone, the Auburn Hills auto has announced a pair of new special editions.
The 2014 Chrysler Town & Country 30th Anniversary Edition starts the Touring-L trim and includes such special touches as 17-inch wheels, unique badging, available Granite Crystal Pearl paint and an interior decked out in black Alcantara and Nappa leather, piano black trim and all the optional bells and whistles bundled in.
The 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan 30th Anniversary Edition, meanwhile, starts off with either the SE or SXT trims and also upgrades with 17-inch alloys as well as color-keyed mirrors and an interior with silver stitching, piano black trim, power everything, and of course, those special badges.
