1977 Chrysler New Yorker. 40,140 mile Survivor. 100% original paint in magnificent condition. All chrome and trim magnificent. Zero rust, including under vinyl top. Interior impeccable. Great color combo, no ugly belt molding. This is the one you want. 440-4bbl runs smooth and strong and quiet, you forget it's running, but it has that unique Thermoquad sound when the secondary valves open. Rebuilt and re-cored original radiator about 400 miles ago, installed 3 row in place of the original 2 row. A/C blows cold, R134a conversion. Flushed system, replaced compressor, dryer, expansion valve, and O-rings. Replaced valve cover gaskets. Wheel bearings freshly packed. Original undercoating. Burgundy cloth interior immaculate, drive it anyplace in comfort. Window gaskets and weather stripping are great, car is very quiet inside when all four windows are up, no howling or wind noise. All emissions equipment still in place for those in California or other places where it matters. Wipers work and park, washer fluid squirts from wiper arms like it should. Car starts like it should no matter how hot or cold out. Power seat works, fender mounted signals work, hazards, brake lights, everything. Current Virginia inspection. Runs drives and stops like a 40,000 mile car should. Wear points like driver's armrest aren't worn. Headliner is perfect. Washer and overflow bottle under the hood are not discolored. Car is flat out magnificent and it might easier to discuss the few details that are not.The only thing that doesn't work is the 8-track deck, it might need a belt. AM FM radio works fine on all four original speakers. The front passenger's door doesn't lock, I'm pretty certain the plunger linkage is just a little bent inside. The plunger probably got snagged on a coat or something at some point since 1977. The door closes and latches fine. I didn't want to disassemble the mint door panel to fix it since you damage that pressboard material a tiny bit each time no matter how careful you are and I don't leave the car alone or in places I'd feel the need to lock it. Very top of back seat cloth is slightly faded. Tiny hairline cracks in steering wheel by spokes, but you won't find a better one, see pic. One flaw in driver's door pull. See pic. This is how a 40,000 mile original should be, and you won't be disappointed. Please contact me to ask about anything you'd like. Come see it and drive it or arrange to send your inspector to my garage. If you opened this listing and know what a survivor is, you know what you should expect. I require a $500 non-refundable deposit due to my paypal within 24 hours of auction's end. Car must be retrieved within 15 days of auction's end, it will remain in my garage while you get here. If you can't pick up, I will coordinate with you for transport upon receipt of full payment, clear Virginia title in my name will be posted by USPS registered mail. Car is for sale locally, reserve right to end auction early. I've done my best to describe the car exactly as it is, minor flaws included. Serious hobbyists or collectors only please. These may not be worth a fortune, but is too nice to be someone's beater.
