You won't find another of these. This 1954 Chrysler New Yorker is in original condition, and looks like it was just pulled from a barn. You might find a few of these that have been restored, but you won't find one with a patina like this that actually runs and drives great. This car was prurchased in 2004 from the son of the original owner, who drove it from new until about 1990, when it was apparently parked. It has oil change stickers on the door going back about 40000 miles. The only major item that's been redone is the engine, but many minor items have been replaced and rebuilt, including the entire brake system, with the booster rebuilt by Whitepost. Fuel system has been gone through with the fuel pump replaced, tank cleaned, and lines replaced as necessary. The generator, starter relay, and voltage regulator have been professionally rebuilt. All rebuilt and replaced items were selected for their patina, to help maintain the original look of the car. The car turns heads wherever it goes, and always builds a crowd at car shows. Won "most nostalgic" at the 2014 Mississippi ScareCrow car show, an event with almost 1000 cars. Condition:The condition is as you'd expect for a 61 year old car that's not been touched. It has a nice patina, with red primer showing through in many places. There is some surface rust on the tops of the rear fenders, and there is rust-through in both rocker panels. Frame is solid with undercoating present in places. Trunk is solid except for near the spare tire well. Interior is old and has some holes, so will need to be replaced if not left original. Features:All manual windows. Power drum brakes. Manual steering. No A/C. Two speed automatic transmission shifts great. Other items included:See pictures. I will include the shop manual, dash manual, period advertising, and all repair/maintenance records for the past decade. Also included is a nonfunctional generator core, original locking gas cap, spare instrument cluster with gauges, Shipping and payment:Buyer to arrange shipping or I can meet personally in Flowood, MS. Cash or certified check only, will consider PayPal if buyer pays the transaction fee. No credit cards or personal checks accepted. Warranty:This 61-year-old car obviously has no warranty. I just drove it 50 miles this morning and it ran great, but I cannot guarantee anything. Once I hand over the keys, it's yours.
