 Selling my 1963 Chrysler New Yorker Salon. This a rare car! They only made the Salon model in 63-64. In 63 they built 593 and in 64 they built 1,621. Thats only a total of 2,214 in 2 years! This car has every option including AC, Power Steering, Power Brakes, Auto Pilot (cruise control), Power windows, Power seat, head rest, Arm rest in front and rear, rear cigarette lighters, map lights.....etc. See the pictures for the full list. It has a 413cu V8 with a automatic push button transmission.

I bought this car as a project because its just cool, but I just don't have the time to fix it. When I got it there was no radiator, air cleaner, or starter, but everything else seems to be there and original. After I bought it I put in a new starter, plugs, wires, and carb kit, but could never get it started. It turns over slow so I put a oil pump primer on it and it wouldnt' pump. I installed a new oil pump but still could never get oil to the top end of the motor and that is as far as I got. I think theres a possible oil passage blocked or bad bearing in the motor somewhere which isnt allowing oil to the top of the motor. I have not pulled the motor and verified this though. The tires are currently flat but should air up fine.

 There is some rust in a few places as well as some bondo on the hood and trunk lid and wheel wells. It appears to have been repainted at some point, but most of the clear coat is gone on the top side.

I have the original owners manual where the dealer filled out the info on the car. It was originally sold in New York and even have the name of the dealership that sold it!

This would make a great restoration project but I just don't have the time or the funds right now and would rather see someone get her running then just let it sit longer. I have a clear Title. Feel free to ask questions. I also have this car for sale locally, so reserve the right to end the auction early.


Payment is to be paid in CASH upon pickup and should be picked up within 2 weeks of auction end unless other arrangements are made.

Chrysler highlights Mopar lineup for SEMA

Wed, 30 Oct 2013

SEMA is all about aftermarket parts, and in Auburn Hills that all comes down to one name: Mopar. After having previewed its lineup for this year's Vegas tuner expo earlier this month, Chrysler has now revealed what may not quite be its full dossier of modified show cars, but a good portion of them.
All told Mopar is preparing 20 vehicles for display at SEMA this year. Among them you'll find the Ram Sun Chaser, a 1500 Quad Cab show truck kitted out in two-tone orange and black paint, a roof rack for surfboards, onboard shower and convertible tailgate. The white Fiat 500L is called the Adventurer and is modified for a more rugged look that could hint at the upcoming crossover version. The Jeep Cherokee Trail Carver upgrades on the Trailhawk package with everything from roof basket to rock rails. To counterbalance the off-roaders, there's also a modified Chrysler 300S with a deep black paint job, special grille, Varvatos-edition wheels and more.
All four concepts details so far have Katzkin interiors as well, and there's also an unspecified Dodge Durango with a storm-trooper look in the gallery above. But for more details on what Mopar has installed on the Ram, 500L, Cherokee and 300, you'll want to delve into the press release below.

Auto investor Kirk Kerkorian dead at 98

Wed, Jun 17 2015

Kirk Kerkorian, among the most talked-about investors in the American auto industry in recent memory, died at the age of 98 in Los Angeles on Monday, June 15. The billionaire ran the investment company Tracinda Corp. and was the largest shareholder in MGM Resorts International. Kerkorian attempted to use his power as a well-financed investor to push the auto industry in some fascinating ways. In 2006, he used his nearly 10-percent stake in General Motors to push a merger with the Renault-Nissan Alliance. The deal made it as far as discussions, but eventually fell through. Kerkorian also attempted to purchase Chrysler - twice. According to Automotive News, the first effort came in 1995 with a $22.8-billion offer for the automaker, and soon after it failed the company merged with Daimler. Then in 2007, Kerkorian was back with a bid for $4.5 billion, but things eventually fell to Cerberus. The billionaire finished the trifecta by buying up $1 billion in Ford stock in 2008 to make Kerkorian the single largest investor in the company. However, the situation didn't last long, and by the end of that year, he had unloaded the shares. According to Automotive News, Kerkorian was ranked by Forbes as the world's 41st richest man in 2008 with a net worth of $16 billion.

Fiat Chrysler taps Amazon, Shell execs to fill roles

MILAN — Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is tapping executives from Amazon and Shell Oil Company with previous automotive industry experience to fill its ranks. CEO Mike Manley said in a letter to employees Thursday that Mark Stewart would join FCA as chief operating officer of North America from Amazon, "a company known for its culture of innovation, and obsession with delivering incredible value to customers." At Amazon, Stewart led teams focused on advanced robotics, artificial intelligence and automation methods. He previously was COO of ZF TRW automotive components supplier. Niel Golightly was named head of global communications. He was most recently Shell's vice president for external relations in North and South America, with a focus on reputation, brand and stakeholder engagement beyond communication strategies. He previously held roles at Ford Motor Company. Related Video: Image Credit: REUTERS/Rebecca Cook Hirings/Firings/Layoffs Alfa Romeo Chrysler Dodge Fiat Jeep RAM FCA Amazon shell Mike Manley
