1956 Chrysler New Yorker 4 Door Hardtop on 2040-cars
Dixon, Illinois, United States
|
RARE opportunity for Chrysler fans! I am selling a rare 1956 Chrysler New Yorker automobile for a friend of mine who lives out of state. This rare find has been in storage for over 13 years and has only 39,768 miles on the car. It has the original paint from the factory on it and is the rare 4 door hardtop model which Chrysler only produced 3,599 units of in 1956. The auto has the original factory Kelsey-Hays wire wheels that are a rare item to behold. The auto is a dash mounted push button automatic model as the picture shows. The engine is the Chrysler original 5.6L 354 HEMI model with 280 h.p. with factory duel exhausts. It still has the factory spare tire in the trunk as in the photo. This car was purchased many years ago in El Monte Calif. in April 1987 from an elderly lady and then driven to the Chicago area with no problems. This auto is major rust free! There is only mild rust on the surface of the rocker panel bottoms and some slightly blistered chrome on the car. The car is solid and can be verified in the pictures showing the under hood and under trunk lid. As stated earlier this auto was removed from storage after 13 years and sent to a mechanic to get it running and to see if anything needed repair. A new fuel pump was installed and a new float assembly was installed in the fuel tank. Check out the pictures of the headliner and there is no sun damage to the inside rear window or padded dash. The engine runs very quite and the transmission shifts great. A new battery was also installed in the auto with new fluids. I would admit the auto should most likely get new points and plugs installed although the car starts and runs fine. The brakes should also most likely be checked out since the car is this old. The radio comes on but I cannot get any stations and I do not actually know what else would be needed but again all the parts are there for your approval. The car can be seen in Dixon, Illinois and I can be contacted for an appointment at 815-288-4139 or email pslonsky@comcast.net. Again this is a RARE opportunity for you to own a very good condition 1956 Chrysler with only 39,768 miles on it. Please contact me if you have any questions and arrange a look see if you desire. |

Preserving automotive history costs big bucks
Wed, 29 Jan 2014
$1.8 million is spent each year to maintain GM's fleet of 600 production and concept cars.
When at least two of the Detroit Three were on the verge of death a few years back, one of the tough questions that was asked of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler execs - outside of why execs were still taking private planes to meetings - was why each company maintained huge archives of old production and concept vehicles. GM, for example, had an 1,100-vehicle collection when talk of a federal bailout began.
2014 Chrysler 200 to set design tone for brand
Sun, 20 Jan 2013Speaking with Wards Auto at this year's Detroit Auto Show, Chrysler design chief Ralph Gilles said that the next-generation Chrysler 200 will launch a whole new styling direction for the brand when it arrives for the 2014 model year. Gilles did not reveal any specific design cues or elements that will be found on the next 200, only saying that the new car "shares no surface language with any previous Chrysler we've ever seen."
Indeed, the current 200 isn't exactly setting the world on fire with any sort of clever, emotive design, but Gilles knows that. "The current Chryslers on the road today certainly don't reflect where we're headed," he told Wards Auto. Instead, Gilles said that "we are deviating from where we are today, completely. It's a very different feeling (and) look."
The launch of the new Chrysler 200 will officially mean the death of its Dodge Avenger counterpart, though Gilles says that the company is working on an all-new product to replace that vehicle down the road. Still, Chrysler will need a successful player in the popular midsize segment, and Gilles fully expects the new 200 to be up to the task. "I think it's going to be a beautiful and relevant vehicle."
NHTSA releases updated Takata airbag recalled cars list, but it still has errors
Wed, 22 Oct 2014
Unfortunately, the government's list still contains errors.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued an updated list of vehicle models that it's urging owners to repair under the mushrooming Takata airbag inflator recall. The latest version adds vehicles from new automakers like Subaru and Ford that are missing from the original announcement, and it also removes erroneous entries from General Motors, leaving only the 2005 Saab 9-2X (a reskinned Subaru WRX), and the 2003-2005 Pontiac Vibe, a joint project with Toyota.
