1966 Chrysler New Yorker

Description

Vehicle Details
Been doing my best to fit this into the project rotation...but I'm just running out of time and it's not going to happen. Summer's getting away from me so stinking fast....I don't want it to sit here for another winter without getting some attention.This is a killer cool 1966 Chrysler New Yorker - a big beautiful boat of a car!Powered by the famous Firepower big block 440 with 4bbl carb and the TorqueFlight automatic transmission.Power brakes and power steering.It's a project car, for sure...she's been parked for sixteen years, so it's going to take some loving to bring her around - but she starts right up and will move under her own power! I've noticed that it's missing the correct alternator bracket, so that's on order now...but you can definitely fire her up and listen to her run. I've had her around the block and back, but would be best to go through her thoroughly if you'd like to make her your daily driver.All the chrome shiny bits are in place, and the doors shut incredibly solid. She'll need a new windshield and some interior work, but it's a great starting place and a SUPER fun car. This thing is all sorts of chrome, plush - and POWER! Both rear quarter panels are showing rust, but it does have the matching factory fender skirts for both rear wheel wells. Rockers all feel solid. Seats are worn and headliner is coming apart, so that will need attention. Dash lights seem to all be functional, and speedometer was functioning when I took her around the block. Brakes and steering all function nicely. Battery is just sitting on the tray and isn't the correct one (terminals are reversed), but will definitely get you on the trailer.The power plant is the real heart of this car; it's complete and running, with every accessory from carb to oil pan - save for the correct alternator bracket. Even the hubcaps are going for 0 apiece online - this car is a steal. I just need the space and money for my other projects at this point. Odometer reads 76,499 but the title is marked as "in excess of mechanical limits" - so take those mileage numbers with a grain of salt. I'm not sure of the actual mileage, in other words. Priced WELL BELOW both NADA and Hagerty's values; this thing is a screaming deal at this price. You just don't run across clean C-body MOPARs like this one very often.We're over in the Hotchkiss Paonia area of western Colorado. Bring cash and come load her up.Clear CO title in my name.
