1973 Chrysler Newport with the rare Navaho package. Low mileage car. First owner had it from 1973 to 1976. Second owner 1976 to 2012. Then I bought if from his estate. Starts right up, shifts great and floats down the highway like a dream. Drive anywhere, ready to go. Comes with original window stickers, dealer paperwork, owner's manual, etc. I am out of room and need to divest myself of some of my toys.
400 cubic inch V8 engine. Automatic transmission. Air conditioning (still has R12 has not been converted to R134A. Does not blow cold.)
The Navaho package was offered only a few years and I believe 1973 was the last year that it was offered. All Navahos came with the copper metallic paint with burnt orange pinstripes, white vinyl roof and above all the burnt orange colored factory "shag" carpet and Navaho seat fabric. If you were alive in 1973 (like I was) you'd simply say "It was the style at the time". This 19.5 foot long four door hardtop beast really attracts attention at cruise nights and local car shows. Also 1973 was the last of Chrysler's "fuselage" style cars. Someone will enjoy this car for many years forward.
I've included many pics. Please ask questions before you bid. Please do not bid if you don't intend to pay. Check my 100% positive eBay feedback. Remember this car is very old. She is far from perfect but she is a great unrestored original car. There is some rust here and there but the underside is extremely nice and solid. It is not a rust bucket. The interior is awesome. (There is one seam on the back seat that is coming open from age, not wear.) The dash is not cracked at all. Car is sold as is/where is. I live near Reading PA, about 65 miles outside of Philadelphia. Pickup only. You can send your shipper and I will do what I can to accommodate you but I cannot arrange or help you with shipping. Car stays in my garage until all funds are securely in my possession. Mileage may be a little higher than stated because I do take the car out sometimes.
Reserve is very realistic. Good Luck!

Marchionne: Midsize pickup still not in the cards; Ram 1500, Jeep Wrangler could use aluminum
Wed, 07 May 2014During the Fiat-Chrysler briefings on Tuesday, Reid Bigland, head of Ram Trucks, outlined the new product plans for his brand, including confirmation that an all-new light-duty Ram 1500 will launch in 2017. From there, discussions spun off in two directions, with the main questions being: will Ram build a midsize pickup? And, following Ford's move to extensively use aluminum in its new 2015 F-150, will Chrysler be using this weight-saving material for the next round of its fullsize truck, as well?
"I think there is room for a Ram 1000," Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne (pictured above) told members of the media, saying this is a conversation the automaker has been having internally for several years now. "We've tried this ... we've actually taken it to clinics," Marchionne stated, adding that the "response has been lukewarm."
"I have better use of aluminum in this house than a pickup truck." - Sergio Marchionne
Chrysler to accelerate production of 2013 Ram and V6 engines
Fri, 16 Nov 2012Chrysler is adding a third shift at its Warren Truck plant to meet demand for the new 2013 Ram pickup. And with tight supplies of its Pentastar V6, the company is also boosting output at its Mack Engine plant.
The expansions will add 1,250 jobs and are part of a $238 million investment by Chrysler in the Detroit area. Warren's third shift will begin work sometime in the spring, a Chrysler rep told Automotive News. Mack's increased Pentastar production a could include both 3.6 and 3.2-liter engines.
The company says it also plans to invest $40 million in its Trenton Engine plant to allow for production of a 3.2-liter V6 as well as the Tigershark inline-four for the upcoming Jeep Liberty replacement.
GM, Chrysler bailouts saved 2.6 million jobs
Tue, 10 Dec 2013
The Center for Automotive Research (CAR) has been studying the effects of the General Motors and Chrysler bailouts in 2009. Now that the US Treasury has officially sold off the rest of its stake in GM (and Chrysler has already paid back its loan), CAR has released its study on the effects of the bailout with this concluding note: "CAR is confident that in the years ahead, this peacetime intervention in the private sector by the US government will be seen as one of the most successful in US economic history."
Big words, for sure, but there's plenty of evidence to back up the claim. Bailing out GM alone saved 1.2-million jobs. If both GM and Chrysler hadn't been bailed out, US employment would have been reduced by 2.631-million jobs in 2009 and another 1.519-million jobs in 2010, according to the study. If both automakers were allowed to fail, personal income in the US would have decreased by $173.5 billion in 2009 and $110.9 billion in 2010. Instead, the study found that $284.4 billion of personal income was saved by the bailouts.
