This is a 1966 Chrysler New Yorker 4 door hardtop. This is one of the cleanest survivor Chryslers of its kind, and is even still sporting its original black license plates. It was purchased new on March 8, 1966 from Fox Motors in Los Gatos, Ca. The car has never left the bay area. The original owner was an old woman who brought it in to the local Mercedes dealer as a trade-in. I acquired the car from a relative of the dealership supervisor, making me the third owner. While at the dealer, it was professionally repainted to a high standard and is virtually flawless. There are no scratches, chips, or other paint damage. The body is extremely straight and solid, and sports its original chrome and moldings. The car has 157,000 original miles, with a large chunk of them having been put on early in its life. As per the service records in the original owners manual, the car had 68,000 miles in 1971. The car has almost always been garaged and is in super clean original condition. Aside from the repaint, everything else is original. The interior features the original seats that exhibit hardly any wear, with very minor splitting of a seam on the rear seat, and a small split on the headliner, but aside from that are virtually new looking! This car was ordered with power seats, power windows, air conditioning, and full tilt and telescoping steering wheel, all very desirable options! Heres what doesn't work:The A/C needs to be chargeddash clock doesn't work rear drivers window doesn't go downspeedometer needle works, but has stopped recording mileage Everything else works! Lights, wipers, horn, seats, etc. Also has a brand new CD player in dash. This car is truly one of the cleanest and fastest cars you could ever drive. The original 7.2L 440 V8 motor is like nothing you've ever driven. The combination of this engine with the original TorqueFlite transmission is an uncomparable experience that you'll only get from behind the wheel of this New Yorker. Just in case you're wondering, I've had this car over 100MPH, so yes, it does haul quite quickly. Runs excellent! Recent service includes:New whitewall tiresNew brake shoes and springs, and adjustmentEdelbrock performance carburetor installed and dialed in (also have the original Carter that has been rebuilt)Dual Flowmaster exhaustSet timing (distributor has an electronic ignition)New cap, rotor, plug wires, and spark plugsNew ignition coilNew fan clutchNew thermostatFlushed radiator, new coolantNew oil and filter I am a professional auto restoration technician and I only allow the cleanest original cars in my collection. This is an extremely clean New Yorker and it pains me to let it go, but it takes up space. . . 20 feet to be exact, and I need to make room for a new project. Can you handle this boat? Come find out! Contact me with any questions, or if you would like to schedule a viewing. Title is clean, registration is current. Out of state and foreign buyers are welcome, although personal inspection is encouraged. Thanks for looking, and Happy Bidding!
