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.

Which of these five plug-ins should win the 2017 Green Car of the Year?

Tue, Nov 8 2016

It's going to be a competitive race for the 2017 Green Car Of The Year. With a minivan in the running for the first time in ages, the five finalists announced by Green Car Journal today include five very different plug-in vehicles. As Ron Cogan, the editor and publisher of Green Car Journal, said in a statement, "electrification is now considered by most automakers an essential technology for current and future high-efficiency models." Let's check out the list: Toyota Prius Prime, the updated plug-in version of the world's best-selling hybrid. Chevy Bolt, GM's all-new entry into the long-range EV game. Chrysler Pacifica, a family hauler with the ability to go 30 miles on electric power. Kia Optima. The nomination is for the full line-up, but really the hybrid and plug-in hybrid models are the green stars here. BMW 330e iPerformance, one of the automaker's many new plug-in hybrids that bring battery power to models outside the i sub-brand. Green Car Journal will announce the winners at the Los Angeles Auto Show on November 17th, along with some, "other green transportation announcements," whatever that means. Last year, the winner was the 2016 Chevy Volt, the first model to snatch up two wins. Which do you think should win this year?

This forgotten Chrysler was its bid for Humvee contract

Wed, 27 Aug 2014

Today, the Humvee might be as associated with the dead automotive brand from General Motors as it is with the hard-working truck that has long served as one of the backbone vehicles of America's military. But Autoline host John McElroy is showing off a practically unknown part of the model's story by digging out some old photos from his personal archive.
The High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle project, better known today as the Humvee, can be traced back to a US Department of Defense request for bids to build a new military truck. According to McElroy, he was invited to the Chrysler proving grounds in 1981 to check out the bid from the brand's defense division. The company's concept was that it might be able to build an inexpensive, capable vehicle by using off-the-shelf parts.
The angular body panels gave the truck a look almost like a modern, stealth vehicle. However, the flat look was actually just to make the tooling as cheap as possible to produce. Still, this Chrysler looked surprisingly futuristic for the early '80s. It's actually not too far away from the famous Lamborghini LM002, itself intended as a possible military-spec machine.

Sell your own: 1969 Plymouth Barracuda

Always the "third" element in Detroit's Big Three, Chrysler and its Dodge, Plymouth and Chrysler divisions, usually played catchup to GM and Ford. However, Plymouth actually arrived to the ponycar segment on time, with its launch of the Valiant-based Barracuda almost on top of Ford's Mustang. That said, the segment became named for ponies, not an aggressive fish. By 1969, the Ford Mustang and Chevy Camaro were becoming bigger and more sophisticated. The Barracuda, by contrast, held on to its essential simplicity. We'd prefer the fastback and a small-block V8, but in the context of 2017 collectible-car values for Mopar, even a Slant Six coupe with unknown mileage might be worth checking out. From the supplied pics, this '69 Cuda looks to be in good condition; if it weren't, the asking price would likely be south of $10,000 – not north. Scarcity's not an issue, so this Barracuda would seem well-suited for the resto-mod treatment (above and beyond the aftermarket hood scoops), while keeping the post-purchase investment as minimal as the original outlay.
