1962 Chrysler New Yorker Base 6.7l on 2040-cars
Holly, Michigan, United States
|
GENERAL: Very nice original 1962 Chrysler New Yorker. While not considered a "classic", this vehicle is still a great looking car of the care-free early sixties. Her name is Ethyl (though you can rename her). Vehicle has been owned by me and garage stored (covered) for the last 7 years. This was a running and driving car with working everything when I last used it. But that was a while ago. I haven't started the engine in a few years. So the only thing wrong with the car would be time and lack of use. Please review the pictures. Contact me with any or all questions and I will try to answer them.
EXTERIOR: The car has no visible rust. There are a few small bubble spots. Also some flaking/rub areas were the paint is off from the metal. Paint is Rosewood (taupey pink color). The paint on the sides of the vehicle is in better shape than the top surfaces. The hood and trunk surfaces have had the paint marred. It is cloudy and scratched up. It looks like someone who didn't know what they were doing took an orbital polisher to the surface. This is a very solid car. All trim is present. All doors, hood and trunk panels fit well and close tight. The Chrysler New Yorker emblem in the front grill is missing. Reproduction emblems can be ordered online. Radio antenna has been removed/broken (?) off. But is still with vehicle and fits back on the exterior mount. Rear Glass has been previously replaced.
INTERIOR: The interior is in overall good shape but upholstery needs cleaning. Of coarse smells musty due to age. There is one tear w/ tape on it on the drivers seat back cushion at the bottom. Headliner has holes: middle by sun visors, by passenger side front and rear, and in the rear back on both sides. Carpet has the normal wear and tear and looks like it has properly been replaced. Dash/Odometer has the clear dome panel..Pushbutton Transmission Gears. All switches and buttons are present and working.
ENGINE: Engine is a 413. The times I've run it, it wants to go like a bat out of hell. I never did any work on the engine and can't tell you much about it. Battery should have been disconnected, but was not.
CONCERNS: Tires: Probably need replacement. I'm not sure how old they are. They went flat from sitting, but when filled they hold the air again. Exhaust: The exhaust has a plastic/rubber tube in place of an exhaust pipe. Fuel: The previous owner was out of gas to show/run the vehicle, so he put some mix (oil/gas) in instead. Vehicle exhausted black smoke. The fuel tank would probably need to be drained/cleaned.
EXTRAS: There are several spare parts in a box. There are two rear taillight lenses and one taillight chrome bracket trim. 2 Chrome trim pieces - not really sure where they go. Carpet fabric for trunk. Extra chrome vent strips. Repair/Service Manual Build sheet & Paint Color Chart Owner Manual

What we think we know about Chrysler's plug-in hybrid minivan, CUV
Wed, May 7 2014When the 2016 Town & Country comes to Chrysler dealerships, it will sport something no production minivan has ever had: a plug. That was on bit of news hidden in the massive Fiat Chrysler (FCA) product preview held in Detroit on Tuesday. All FCA would say about the minivan was that the Town & Country PHEV would get 75 MPGe. We know from the product preview slide (click to enlarge) that there are actually two plug-in hybrids coming from FCA. The minivan and a "full-size crossover," due in 2017. While that could describe the next-gen Dodge Journey, it could also be a brand new peoplemover. All FCA said officially was that it will be a "new vehicle or renewal of existing nameplate," which seems like an awful broad definition. We were curious to know more about these products, so we asked FCA spokesman Eric Mayne. Sadly, he was less than forthcoming, telling AutoblogGreen, "I can only refer you back to the presentations in which the PHEV is mentioned. If the answers aren't there, you'll have to wait." There are actually two plug-in hybrids coming from FCA. Well, sure, for actual facts we'll have to wait, but we can still speculate and look into the archives to see what plug-in vehicle technology FCA has offered in the past. Chrysler had an electric vehicle working group called ENVI that created products like an all-electric minivan for the US Postal Service (pictured). ENVI was disbanded in 2009. At the time, the company said plug-in vehicle work would continue, and since then we saw PHEV minivan and PHEV truck test programs from Chrysler and Ram. In early 2012, Chrysler started testing a small, 25-unit fleet of plug-in hybrid-electric Town & Country minivans with the city of Auburn Hills, MI, where the company is located. The $26-million demonstration project was funded in part by the US Department of Energy, which covered $10 million. The stated plan was for those minivans to each hit at least 16,800 miles over two years, but there were hiccups. In September 2012, for example, the liquid-cooled 12.1-kWh batteries from were found to overheat. Those batteries came from Electrovaya and were mated to a 3.6-liter Pentastar engine that could burn E85. Will any of this make it into the production Town & Country PHEV? No idea, but now we know where the company's coming from. FCA also has some EV experience with the Fiat 500e. Chrysler says electrification has been over-blown by the media.
Wards names its 2015 10 Best Interiors list
Fri, Apr 17 2015Wards Automotive has named the winners of its 10 Best Interior awards, covering a wide but affordable array of vehicles. Where last year's list contained two six-figure vehicles, including the $372,800 Rolls-Royce Wraith, this year's is, well, a whole lot more reasonable. The publication lists the Mercedes-Benz C400 at $65,000 (which seems off), making it the most expensive vehicle here. That said, we'd argue that the entire C-Class line deserves to make this year's list, owing to its varied and high-quality selection of materials. The other vehicle to break the $60,000 mark, meanwhile, is the $60,675 Ford F-150 King Ranch, which has 327,000 pounds of leather lining its interior. Only one other German car, the BMW i3, and one other pickup truck, the GMC Canyon, managed to make this year's list. Here's the full list of this year's winners: 2014 BMW i3 ($52,550) 2015 Chrysler 300C Platinum ($51,175) 2015 Ford F-150 King Ranch ($60,675) 2015 GMC Canyon SLT ($40,465) 2015 Honda Fit EX-L ($21,590) 2015 Jeep Renegade Limited ($33,205) 2015 Kia Sedona SXL ($43,295) 2016 Mazda6 Grand Touring ($33,395) 2015 Mercedes C400 ($65,000) 2015 Nissan Murano SL ($41,905) See what we mean about the mainstream vehicles? Not only is there a distinct lack of luxury brands, it's the price of some of the vehicles that surprise. The Honda Fit, Jeep Renegade and Mazda6 are very reasonably priced, especially when you compare Wards price with the starting price. The Renegade Limited starts at less than $25,000, the Mazda at less than $22K and the Fit at under $16,000. Head over to Wards for a more detailed explanation of why each vehicle won.

Small number of 2013 Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger models recalled
Sun, 24 Feb 2013A small number of units of the 2013 Chrysler 200 (inset) and 2013 Dodge Avenger are being recalled over a broken control valve in the fuel tank assembly. The potential 1,785 sedans were manufactured late last year, and if affected with a broken control valve could suffer from stalling or fuel leakage.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notes that the recall should begin next month, at which time owners can take their cars to dealers for repair free of charge. The full release with more information is just below.
