1967 Chrysler New Yorker 4 Door Hartop on 2040-cars
Ochlocknee, Georgia, United States
For Sale by Owner all original 1967 Chrysler New Yorker with 440 ci engine and 727 transmission. One Owner car with super clean sheet metal. I originally bought the car for the engine and transmission for a Street Rod project due to the low original miles.I expected the car to be in rough shape coming out of Massachusetts but when I got there it was amazingly clean. When I brought it home, changed fluids and went through the engine, and got it tuned and took it for a drive it drove and rode like a dream. I decided to keep it for a while and drive it to shows because the body was too nice to send to the scrap. I think the pictures show how well kept the car was. I put a 750 CFM Summit carburetor on it, new cap, rotor, wires and plugs and have been driving it on and off since last summer. It will sit for a month and fire instantly when I want to take drive. It has new tires all the way around, and runs and drives great. This is a car from the "Land Yacht" era and is really a lot of fun to drive. It has a luxury feel that they just don't make any more.The 440 in it has enormous torque and it will smoke the tires from a standing stop, even with the high gearing. This car will cruise all day at 80 mph and rides like a cloud. For those who care, I specifically bought a 1967 because that year 440 motor is a 10.1:1 compression and has closed chamber 915 heads, which are a single year head found on the fastest Mopars of the time. These particular heads have the smaller valves but are same casting and I always figured on doing a valve job with hardened seats for unleaded fuel anyway . I intended to make the valve size change then because the parts and machine work cost no more to install the bigger valves when going to the unleaded seats. if you want an engine to hot rod this is the one you want, but it is a monster torque cruiser just the way it is. I am selling the car because I just don't get enough time to drive it and I found another 67 New Yorker with the 915 heads with even less mileage so I have one more 440 than I need. Someone else should enjoy the car and take it to shows. |

Fiat Chrysler global HQ lands in London's ultra-posh West End
Thu, 18 Sep 2014It seems Fiat is bent on bolstering its image as a global automaker, as word has leaked out that the Italian/American conglomerate has chosen to locate its global headquarters in a rather swanky neighborhood in London. According to Bloomberg, the rental location on St. James Street in London's West End is a 10-minute walk from Buckingham Palace, and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles will fill up three complete floors of an office building that also houses The Economist magazine.
As a neutral location between Italy and the United States, the London-based headquarters makes sense, though, at $277 per square foot, this area is said to be the most expensive office space in the world. There's no mention of what FCA has actually agreed to pay for renting the space, but we're certain it isn't coming cheap.
Not surprisingly, Bloomberg also cites research indicating that the largest number of immigrants moving into London from January through August of this year hail from Italy, which makes sense considering the number of Italian executives and workers we'd expect would have to relocate to the UK in order to work at Fiat's new home. The company reportedly plans to be in place in London by the time it holds its next round of board meetings in October.
FCA workers get raises, health care co-op in new UAW deal
Mon, Sep 21 2015The pending labor agreement between FCA US and the United Auto Workers is now in the hands of union members to confirm. It's expected to be accepted, but a final decision could take weeks, The Detroit News reports. Employees didn't get everything they were hoping for, and contrary to earlier reports, the two-tier wage system remains in place. However, there are attempts to lessen the difference between the levels in this four-year deal. Assuming FCA US workers agree to this offer, the starting pay for tier-two workers would go up around a dollar to $17 an hour. The other level would now begin at $25.35, about a $6 increase, and they would receive 3 percent raises in the first and third year of the deal. Both groups also get $800 in profit sharing for each percent the automaker's profit margin rises above two percent. Extra money kicks in for the second tier above eight percent. Union members get a $3,000 bonus for accepting this contract, as well. The other major change under the pending agreement is the previously rumored switch to a healthcare co-op. The goal is to collect members from the Big Three together to create a huge member base for leverage to negotiate better rates with insurance companies. The UAW is promising no increase in cost to workers, according to The Detroit News. The idea was inspired by the similar structure for the Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Association for union retirees. UAW boss Dennis Williams expects the agreement to be approved. "Once the membership looks at it, hears the explanation for it, I think they'll ratify it," he said, according to The Detroit News. The next step is to craft similar deals with General Motors and Ford. Related Video:
KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners
Sat, 30 Mar 2013The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.
