1977 Chrysler New Yorker Brougham Hardtop 4-door 7.2l on 2040-cars
Year:1977
Mileage:40500
Location:
Taneytown, Maryland, United States

The car started out as a special order by the owner of the Chrysler dealership in Berwick, PA. The car was purchased for his wife (I got this information from the son of the original owner who I was able to track down from information in the owners manual). The odometer shows 40k but as it is only a 5 digit odometer true mileage is unknown but my guess is 140k. The person from whom we bought the car did not know much of it's history but he did live about 15 miles from Berwick so I doubt it has traveled much. We bought the car in October 2012 with 11k on the clock. If you do the math you will see we have put almost 29k miles on the car in the last 18 months. The car runs GREAT and rides great. My 14 year old daughter fights for the back seat because she says it's like riding the sofa down road. The car starts easily and has plenty of power (it does have the 440, after all). The original wheels were replaced with rally wheels that were painted to match the body. The following items have been replaced in the past 18 months: Spark Plugs (and other tune-up items) Tires Rear Shocks & Rear helper springs Alternator, Water Pump and related Belts and Hoses New windshield wiper bushings. The power sunroof operates as it should. The drivers window does get stuck going down (a little push and moves fine); it works fine going up (weird, huh?) The "Lean Burn" system was removed before we bought the car and while it will come with the original air cleaner it now has an Edelbrock air cleaner. The fender skirts are solid although there are some minor rust places expected in a car 37 years old. After we had first bought the car, as we were preparing for a trip to Ga, (it has also been to Northern New Jersey, Virginia, Kentucky and all points in between) I took to the car to my mechanic. When he was putting the car on the lift he said "I hear from a lot of people the 'I just bought this car and it's in really good shape.' all the time but This car is in really good shape!" I think the fact that we have put so many miles on it attests to that. Since the pictures were taken we have lost the small hub cap from the right front wheel (on a West Virginia paved cow path) and the trim ring from the left rear wheel. Replacements are available I just never got around to buying them. Items not working: The reset for the trip meter. The A/C does not blow cold; I have been told the expansion valve needs to be replaced. There is an expansion valve in the truck as well as an R-12 to R-134 conversion kit. I just enjoy having the sunroof and windows open so I have not had it fixed. The cruise does not work but it did when I bought the car. The diaphragm in the Cruise has a hole. From what I was able to determine the same cruise unit was used until 1984 so there should be replacements available. The same is true for the parking brake release. The parking brake is supposed to release as soon as put the car in drive. It did when we bought it but that no longer works either. I could hear the vacuum coming from it so it too has a leak in the diaphragm. I removed the vacuum hose to stop the hissing. You can still release the brake by foot. The passenger side power seat does not work but the drivers seat works in all directions. The only reason we are selling is due to a change in circumstances which requires something a little more fuel efficient. Our original intention was not to use this as a daily driver (which it has become) but as fun weekend ride. We would much rather see the car go to someone who can give the attention it richly deserves. On Apr-30-14 at 11:59:58 PDT, seller added the following information: I forgot to mention the car was appraised in December 2012 by Accurate Auto Appraisers, 370 Johnsville Rd., Blairsden, CA for $5500. A copy of the appraisal will accompany the vehicle. |

FCA may sell off Magneti Marelli
Mon, Jul 20 2015FCA is reportedly just days away from filing the official prospectus for the Ferrari initial public offering, and it could put the Italian sportscar maker's value at $11 billion. Although, Sergio Marchionne always seems to have another iron in the fire, and his next big deal could shed the automotive giant's Magneti Marelli parts business to the tune of $3.3 billion. According to Reuters citing anonymous insider sources, at least two private equity firms are considering joint submitting bids with firms already in the industry. This deal has reportedly been in the works for at least the last few weeks. According to Reuters, FCA already rejected a roughly $2.7-billion offer in June. Marchionne apparently wants at least the equivalent of $3.3 billion for the company. Publicly, FCA isn't talking, though. Company spokesperson Gualberto Ranieri told Reuters and reiterated to Autoblog simply that Magneti Marelli wasn't for sale. However, a move to get rid of the parts company has been discussed in the past. In 2013, the business was rumored to be part of a purported arrangement to sell Alfa Romeo to Audi. While there's no final decision yet, according to Reuters, if the Magneti Marelli sale does move forward the decision would likely come sometime after the Ferrari IPO. The company would likely be split up among the various divisions. "Everyone will take a fair share of it," one of the anonymous sources to Reuters.

Sunday Drive: Rendering the future at Jeep and Ford
Sun, Apr 8 2018Last week brought us quite a wide variety of automotive news nuggets, and judging by the response of our own readership, the Jeep Wrangler pickup truck led the way. It's not expected to hit the sales floor until April of 2019, which means we've all got an entire year to wait, but that just means we have lots of time to anticipate its arrival. And we do so today with a series of renderings that show what the so-called Scrambler may look like in a few different colors. Another set of renderings depicting a hotly anticipated new vehicle follow just behind. The Baby Bronco – will Ford ante up to the retro-inspired table and call it the Bronco II? – will be one size smaller than the regular-grade Bronco, and we think it'll compete with the Jeep Renegade as a subcompact crossover with some real off-road chops. Moving onto some tuners, both old and new(er), we first present a sweet old Dodge Ram pickup truck tuned by none other than Carroll Shelby himself. The blue and silver striped truck looks so period perfect that it stands out as a star even alongside a quartet of vintage Shelby Mustangs with which it will share space at the Bonhams auction in Greenwich, Conn., this June. And finally we turn our attention to the Hennessey Veliciraptor, an absolute behemoth of a truck. Based on the most excellent Ford Raptor, the Velociraptor ups the crazy quotient with six wheels and 600 hundred horsepower. As always, stay tuned to Autoblog this week for all the latest automotive news.

Chrysler 200 configurator already online
Wed, 15 Jan 2014A preliminary configurator for the 2015 Chrysler 200 is already up and greeting Internet visitors. The totally re-envisioned sedan that we got to know in our Deep Dive starts with an LX base trim for $22,695, which comes out to an MSRP of $21,700 plus $995 for destination. That number will get you entry to a party that comes with keyless entry, ambient LED lighting inside, a five-inch Uconnect touschcreen system with Bluetooth, a six-speaker stereo, eight-way power driver's seat, safety features like brake assist and an electronic parking brake and eighteen-inch wheels on all-season tires.
The features list isn't yet broken down by model, but including destination, the other three trims retail for $24,250 for the Limited, $25,990 for the S and $26,990 for the C. All-wheel drive adds $4,200 on the S and the C.
You can build an LX pretty quickly because there aren't many options. There are two interior choices, black or black/linen, five exterior color options, and just two choices after that: you can opt for the $495 five-inch Uconnect system that adds features like voice command and a rearview mirror with a microphone, and an engine block heater for $95.
