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.

Junkyard Gem: 1986 Plymouth Horizon

Wed, Oct 18 2017

Chrysler imported quite a few Mitsubishis and sold them as Dodge and Plymouth Colts, but the Colts of the 1980s had to compete with the Plymouth Horizon and its Dodge Omni sibling. Based on a Chrysler Europe design, production of the Plymouth Horizon ran in virtually unchanged form from the 1979 through 1990 model years. A simple, cheap econobox, the Plymouth Horizon sold well enough, but was such a disposable car that very few remain today. Here's one that lasted long enough to end its days in a California wrecking yard at age 31. The genealogy of the Omnirizon gets a bit tangled when you go back far enough; the car is based on the chassis design of the 1975 Simca 1307, though by the time it got to Detroit it had evolved considerably. Chrysler was desperate for an American-built economy car during the late 1970s, and the Omnirizon got the job done. The 1978-1982 Horizons had 1.7-liter Volkswagen engines, while the 1983-1986 models came with a 1.6-liter Simca mill as the base engine. The Chrysler 2.2-liter four was an optional Horizon powerplant starting in 1981, and the only engine available from 1987 through the final Horizons built in 1990. This car has the 2.2, rated at 96 horses in 1986. The '86 Horizon weighed a mere 2,100 pounds (about the same as a 2017 Mitsubishi Mirage), and so 96 horsepower made it peppy enough by mid-1980s econo-commuter standards. The interior is right out of the Slippery Plastic With Fake Stitching™ playbook, but nobody bought an Omnirizon for the luxury. This car was basically identical to its Dodge Omni sibling, and both had MSRPs of $6,209 in 1986 (about $13,900 in inflation-adjusted 2017 bucks). You could get cheaper new cars in 1986— the $4,995 Hyundai Excel and $3,990 Yugo GV come to mind— but the Omnirizon five-doors were better-built and had the sales advantage of being known quantities. Even by 1986, the Omnirizon was showing its age (though not as much as the amusingly obsolete Chevrolet Chevette, which was sold through the 1987 model year). Still, it remained sufficiently relevant to sell in decent number for another four years. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

Tier 1 suppliers call GM the worst OEM to work with

Mon, 12 May 2014

Among automakers with a big US presence, General Motors is the worst to work for, according to a new survey from Tier 1 automotive suppliers, conducted by Planning Perspectives, Inc.
The Detroit-based manufacturer, which has been under fire following the ignition switch recall and its accompanying scandal, finished behind six other automakers with big US manufacturing operations. Suppliers had issues with trust and communications, as well as intellectual property protection. GM was also the least likely to allow suppliers to raise their prices in the face of unexpected increases in material cost, all of which contributed to 55 percent of suppliers saying their relationship with GM was "poor to very poor."
GM's cross-town competitors didn't fare much better. Chrysler finished in fifth place, ahead of GM and behind Dearborn-based Ford, which was passed for third place this year by Nissan. Toyota took the top marks, while Honda captured second place.
