Vehicle Detail
For sale is a rare unrestored 1961 Chrysler New Yorker 2 door hardtop. It is and always has been to the best of my knowledge a dry California car. Other than some minor surface rust, the car is virtually rust free. It is loaded with options including power steering, power brakes, power windows, power seat and air conditoning. The car has been off the road for nearly 30 years suggesting that the 79,000 miles on the odometer is likely correct. I have not tried to start the car but it looks like with a little tinkering, it may be a runner (but I can not be positive). The interior will need to be redone and the car does need paint. The car is mostly complete but is missing the top of the back seat (I believe I know where one is) and is missing the passenger side stainless piece and the bottom of the passenger front fender (again I think I have a source for this). Please note:...the wheels and tires pictured on the car do not go with the car. The car will have its original wheels, tires and hubcaps reinstalled at the close of the auction. The wire wheels and tires are off of my 1961 Chrysler wagon and were put on the New Yorker so you could get an idea of how beautiful the car is with them on. Please bid accordingly. The car is sold as is where is with no warrantly (it is a 50 plus year old car). I would be more than happy to show you the car and welcome any questions you may have. I am a Chrysler lover and this car is one of the neatest excercises in automotive styling ever. With the canted headlights, the full body fins and the luminesent dash...it does not get any more wild than this. Add in the fact that this car shares the exact same body as the 300 this year and the fact that it is covered in stainless steel (unlike the 300) and you have one really sweet car. The only reason I am selling this car is to raise funds for two current project cars I have that are in the process of restoration (otherwise it would not be for sale) so I am not interested in trades (but thanks anyway). I appreciate your looking and good luck bidding. Thanks again. (530) 723-2145.
