1967 Chrysler New Yorker Garage Kept Two Owner Rock Solid Coupe on 2040-cars
Wallkill, New York, United States
|
Here we have a 1967 new yorker that I purchased from a past neighbor of mine.I remember this car when I was a kid growing up. Bob is 81 now and getting his affairs in order, none of his kids want the old clunker and bob knowing that I have a love affair with vintage cars contacted me to see if I was interested in her.I went to his house and sure enough there it sits.Bob tells me that he is the second owner and the miles that are on the odometer are true miles and not turned over but there is no proof . Bob has always kept it registered and insured but has not used it in a few years.truth be told, I purchased this car for the sole purpose of making a profit. My love affair is with 50's cars [I have two] and prewar packards.This garage kept chrysler has no rot and I don't believe it ever did but it does have some small bubbling under the vinyl top on the drivers side that I will show in some pictures.There is none around the rear window.The car has been repainted for reasons unknown and the drivers door has a small area of previous body work-vinyl top is still in great condition-britework is still pleasing to the eye.interior is very nice with wear on the drivers seat as well as the rear seat that I will show in some pictures.The headliner is excellent with no tears or sag and the dash has some cracks and splits. The steering wheel is fine with no splits. factory radio unfortunately has been replaced . Original wheels and hubcaps M.I.A . Now if I were to keep this I would go thru this front to back-pull the wheels and redo brakes/wheel cylinders/repack wheel bearings/change brake lines/hoses/ all belts/coolant hoses/ fuel lines/ tune up/ inspect rear axle bearings/ujoints/ transmission flush and filter change/flush radiator with a new thermostat/flush power steering system/ grease every fitting/ inspect water pump/ etc etc. If your looking to get into a vintage car cheaply this might be you.Now for all you folks that ask me if I think the car will make it to your destination if you decide to fly in and drive it home my answer is your nut's-I did that once when I purchased an old lincoln from the carlise pa fall swap meet. since i was only 235 miles away I chanced it since the car was in excellent shape with low miles. well about 100 miles into the trip the car started to backfire under load-I did make it home but swore I would never do that again.plan on trailering this please!! I took the car for a short ride and the car goes down the road nicely-it is cold blooded and needs to warm up,but once it is ready to go it runs nice/shifts/stops nicely and goes down the road straight. This car needs to be used and it still needs some odds and ends such as the rear windows don't go down but the motors are working so the rear panels need to be pulled to see whats going on. The drivers window goes down but needs a little help going back up.The bottom line is this car needs some work but you can use it and work on it as needed.I will be posting pictures later on this evening. if you would rather talk then email[I prefer talking] my # is 845-863-6327 Steve. Now I have plenty of room to store this car until you can find a reasonable/knowledgable shipper-no need to panic and find a poor shipper because you think the car needs to be moved quickly-DO YOUR HOMEWORK TO FIND THE RIGHT MOVER!!- I have seen some hacks and butchers from the USHIP WEBSITE so take your time!! no paypal please and ALL CHECKS NEED AMPLE TIME TO CLEAR- clear registration still in bobs name ready to be handed over to the new buyer- a buffing and cleaning will do wonders-- I have more pics available-just ask

Chrysler 300 diesel could get green light
Wed, 03 Apr 2013Word has it Chrysler is keen to shove its new turbo diesel V6 into a range of models. Wards Auto reports Chrysler President and CEO Saad Chehab has made it clear the automaker is investigating the possibility of using the 3.0-liter oil-burner in the 300. While speaking at an Automotive Press Association luncheon, Chehab said, "It's a matter of how much the customer is willing to pay for that premium. That's the only issue with it."
The Chrysler 300 is sold as the Lancia Thema in Europe complete with a diesel of its very own, and since the Jeep Grand Cherokee is now available with the diesel V6 here in the States, it only makes sense that the engine could potentially show up on the 300 order sheet. Opting for the 3.0 V6 in the Jeep Grand Cherokee will set you back an additional $4,500, however.
Chehab also said the engine could make an appearance in the next-generation Chrysler 200, which is set to debut next year.
Question of the Day: Ever consider driving a minivan?
Thu, May 12 2016Since I'm supposed to know something about cars, it happens all the time: friends and relatives ask me advice about what kind of vehicle they should get. Very often, the only type of vehicle that can check every item on their wish list (e.g., hauls lots of people and stuff, gets good fuel economy, has great crash-test ratings, can take four Great Danes camping, and so on) is a modern minivan... and, of course, nobody wants to hear this. I'm not a minivan person, they will wail, and so they end up with a cramped, fuel-swilling SUV or a not-so-space-efficient minivan-in-disguise CUV. So, is it worth becoming one of those minivan people in order to get the incredible usefulness of these masterpieces of vehicle engineering, or do you hold your head high and drive something that doesn't quite meet your needs?

Chrysler extends fuel tank warranties on LX cars, NHTSA ends probe
Tue, 18 Feb 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has ended its investigation of 153,817, 5.7-liter and 6.1-liter Hemi V8-powered 2006 Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum models after reports of stalling. Chrysler has responded by granting a lifetime warranty on the fuel tanks for these vehicles.
NHTSA received 299 reports of engines stalling while the models were stopped or driving at low speeds, and began an investigation. The government agency found that the control valve shutoff float in the V8s' 19-gallon fuel tank could malfunction if the fuel had too high of an ethanol content. In many cases, the valve would break in the open position, allowing the tank to be overfilled, which would then cause the cars to stall. However, there were no accidents reported, and the vehicles could be restarted immediately.
There will not be a recall on these vehicles because, "the condition represents a low risk to motor vehicle safety and is adequately addressed by Chrysler's extended warranty," NHTSA said to The Detroit News.
