1961 Chrysler New Yorker 2 Door Hardtop Rust Free California Car on 2040-cars

Year:1961 Mileage:79621
Location:

Davis, California, United States

Davis, California, United States

For sale is a rare unrestored 1961 Chrysler New Yorker 2 door hardtop.  It is and always has been to the best of my knowledge a dry California car.  Other than some minor surface rust, the car is virtually rust free.  It is loaded with options including power steering, power brakes, power windows, power seat and air conditoning.  The car has been off the road for nearly 30 years suggesting that the 79,000 miles on the odometer is likely correct.  I have not tried to start the car but it looks like with a little tinkering, it may be a runner (but I can not be positive).  The interior will need to be redone and the car does need paint.  The car is mostly complete but is missing the top of the back seat (I believe I know where one is) and is missing the passenger side stainless piece and the bottom of the passenger front fender (again I think I have a source for this).  Please note:...the wheels and tires pictured on the car do not go with the car.  The car will have its original wheels, tires and hubcaps reinstalled at the close of the auction.  The wire wheels and tires are off of my 1961 Chrysler wagon and were put on the New Yorker so you could get an idea of how beautiful the car is with them on.  Please bid accordingly.  The car is sold as is where is with no warrantly (it is a 50 plus year old car).  I would be more than happy to show you the car and welcome any questions you may have.  I am a Chrysler lover and this car is one of the neatest excercises in automotive styling ever.  With the canted headlights, the full body fins and the luminesent dash...it does not get any more wild than this.  Add in the fact that this car shares the exact same body as the 300 this year and the fact that it is covered in stainless steel (unlike the 300) and you have one really sweet car.  The only reason I am selling this car is to raise funds for two current project cars I have that are in the process of restoration (otherwise it would not be for sale) so I am not interested in trades (but thanks anyway).  I appreciate your looking and good luck bidding.  Thanks again.  (530) 723-2145.

Chrysler recalls 350k vehicles over ignition switches

Thu, 25 Sep 2014

Chrysler has announced a recall covering 349,442 vehicles due to ignition switches that can either become stuck or move without warning. All of the affected vehicles are from the 2008 model year, and were built before May 12, 2008.
The automaker has learned that ignition keys on some vehicles "may not fully return to the 'ON' position after rotation to the 'START' position during engine-startup," the company said in a statement. Additionally, "an ignition key may not fully return to the 'ON' position after rotation to the 'START' position and may inadvertently move through the 'ON' position to 'ACCESSORY' or 'OFF.'"
Chrysler says it is unaware of any related injuries, and notes that while reduced braking, engine or steering power is possible in such instances, the airbags are not affected. The later stands in contrast to General Motors' recent rash of high-profile recalls, and it's an important distinction that Chrysler (understandably) felt necessary to call out in bold print in its press release.

Chrysler 300 Glacier edition ready to chill with AWD

Sat, 19 Jan 2013

It seems that word is finally out on the redone Chrysler 300, as evidenced by the fact that the model's sales almost doubled last year compared to 2011 (when the distinctive sedan was a little slow out of the gates). One thing that's likely helping the car is a growing number of unique models like the 300S, 300 SRT8 and the new 300C John Varvatos Luxury Edition, and now one more trim has joined the lineup. Initially announced back in September, the 300 Glacier is on sale now with a starting price of $36,845 (*not including a $995 destination charge).
Designed with cold-weather climates in mind, the 300 Glacier is only available with all-wheel drive. Chrysler says the Glacier will run an additional $1,500 over the 300S AWD off which this car is based, but that extra money gets unique 19-inch aluminum wheels, an exclusive Glacier Blue Pearl Coat paint job and special interior treatments including piano black accents and fancier leather seats and stitching. Like the 300S, power from the Pentastar V6 has been bumped up to an even 300 horsepower (up from 292 hp) with the aid of a cold-air induction and freer-breathing exhaust. Naturally, the 363-hp Hemi V8 is still available, too.

Ram confirms Fiat Ducato vans to form new Promaster series for US

Wed, 28 Nov 2012

Chrysler has officially confirmed that Ram will develop an all-new large van for the US market based on the Fiat Ducato. The commercial rig will go on sale in the third quarter of next year, joining the Ram C/V on the company's professional van line. Expect to see the Promaster face off against the Ford Transit and revised Chevrolet Express.
Chrysler is pretty skimpy on details when it comes to the Promaster, but it has said the vehicle will make use of "familiar Ram Truck styling cues." The van will reportedly also bow with powertrains targeted specifically at the North American market.
Chrysler and Ram made the announcement ahead of the LA Auto Show alongside news that the company will launch a new Ram commercial truck division.
