This is a rare 2 door 1961 Chrysler New Yorker with a big block 413 wedge motor(not cross ram).Runs and drives great with about 82,000 original miles showing.
I have owned it for about 10 years and put only 2000 miles on it if that. It has been stored winters and usually one wheel brake drags after it sits but frees right up with driving. Over the years I've had the centerlink replaced, some brake lines, exhaust, tune-up and new tires(3 years ago but less than 100 miles on tires.)
has dual exhaust with glass packs. Have painted it blue and white with vintage blue Federal bubblegum light on top, Mayberry whip antenna, and "Clarks County Sheriff graphics". Police radio doesn't go with car.
This is a solid car with minimal bodywork lower quarters when I painted it, (still could use clearcoat buffed out) These cars are notorious for having a hole in the floor board just behind the front wheels and this one does as well, however they are about 3-6 inches as I recall. All the original stainless steel trim is with it as well as the new Yorker grill. I changed them out for the more "sparse" cop car look.
The hood is currently off but all painted white and ready to put back on with the original hinges.. NO LOWBALLERS on the "Make offer", don't bother, my price is very fair, the car is ready for cruising after the hoods installed.
I've included all the pics I have (Car is stored in another location and injury prevents me from going there right now). The two pics in light blue shows the car to see the front, the bumper dent, & the overall condition before I painted it blue & white. You can see it was in nice shape with minor spots. The front bumper chrome is fair-good but has a dent (about 1 x 6") on the drivers side. The rear bumper chrome is only fair. The stainless trim all looks pretty good.
PLEASE ASK ALL QUESTIONS BEFORE OFFERS OR PURCHASE!! TERMS: $500 Paypal deposit due upon purchase. Balance due when you, or your shipper picks it up pick it up in cash at which time I will hand you the notarized, signed off title.

Chrysler slows minivan production, hasn't built VW Routan this year
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Chrysler has slowed production of its Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans this week, Automotive News reports. The Windsor, Ontario plant will cut its three shifts from eight hours each to four hours each in an effort "to align production with market demand," a Chrysler spokesperson told AN. Chrysler also builds the closely related Routan minivan for Volkswagen at its Ontario facility, but has not built a single example thus far in 2013.
Sales of Chrysler's minivans fell 15 percent for the first two months of 2013, and a large part of that has to do with the 26-percent drop of the Grand Caravan alone (the T&C was only down by one percent). According to Automotive News data, as of March 1, Chrysler had an unsold inventory of 24,713 Town and Country models and 18,547 Grand Caravans - a 69- and 43-day supply, respectively.
"No sense running full speed now, then have a lot of vehicles sitting around a few months down the line," Chrysler spokeswoman Jodi Tinson told AN. Full production is expected to resume again on March 18.
What will the next Presidential limo look like?
Thu, 25 Jul 2013With recent news that the Secret Service has begun soliciting proposals for a new armored limousine, we've been wondering what the next presidential limo might look like. The current machine, nicknamed "The Beast", has a design based on a car that's no longer sold: the Cadillac DTS. If General Motors gets the job again, which wouldn't be a surprise considering the government still owns a chunk of the company, the next limo's shape would likely resemble the new XTS (below, left). But Cadillac hasn't always been the go-to car company for presidential whips.
Lincoln has actually provided far more presidential limousines throughout history than Cadillac. In fact, the first car modified for Commander-in-Chief-carrying duty was a 1939 Lincoln K-Series called "Sunshine Special" used by Franklin D. Roosevelt, and the last Lincoln used by a president was a 1989 Town Car ordered for George H.W. Bush. If President Obama wanted a Lincoln today, it would likely be an amalgam of the MKS sedan and MKT crossover, as illustrated above.
And what about Chrysler? The only record we could find of a President favoring the Pentastar is Nixon, who reportedly ordered two limos from the company during his administration in the '70s, and then another one, known today as the "K-Car limo," in the '80s after he left office. Obama, however, has a personal - if modest - connection to Chryslers, having owned a 300 himself before he took office. A 300-based Beast (above, right) would certainly earn the U.S. some style points.
Chrysler recalling 278,222 trucks and SUVs over bad rear axles
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Chrysler has issued a recall of 278,222 light trucks and sport utility vehicles here in the United States. The reason: bad rear axles. Specifically, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the rear axle pinion nut may lack a necessary adhesive patch, which could cause the nut to loosen. If this happens, the axle can lock up, which could cause all sorts of havoc on the road.
This is an expansion of the rear axle recall announced in October of last year, where 44,300 Ram 1500 and Dodge Dakota models were being called in. At that time, 12 accidents had been reported due to the faulty axle pinion nut.
Affected vehicles include Ram 1500 trucks from the 2009 to 2012 model years, Dodge Dakota models from the 2009 to 2011 model years, and both the Chrysler Aspen and Dodge Durango SUV twins, both from the 2009 model year only.
