1969 Chrysler Newport Convertible Base 6.3L

You are looking at a beautiful 1969 Chrysler Newport Convertible.   This car is a fantastic Cruiser!

This car was restored in the late 90's / early 2000's in my opinion.   The person that performed the restoration was a professional as this car still looks good.  I have some photos of the process.

Car was originally Dark Green.

Car was repainted R6 Red and the paint looks great.   I get compliments on the paint finish all the time.   Engine was rebuilt as a high performance 383 with a new camshaft. 4-barrel carburetor and dual exhaust.   Old carburetor was gummed up and impossible to adjust. so I replaced with a brand new Holley.   Car idles and runs very nicely.

Car is in excellent shape.   Body is clean of rust and very straight.   It does have some small bubbles on the quarter panel over the right rear tire and on the Dutchman panel – both areas are hardly noticeable. but they are there.   Underbody has some rust that will eventually need to be fixed. but not too bad. in my opinion.

I have added New White Convertible Top and Back Glass and had the Air Conditioning fixed.   I have also installed a new Battery. Engine Wiring Harness. and I upgraded the Alternator and Voltage regulator to the 1970 Chrysler design.   I installed a new Fuel Tank sending unit (Gas Gauge now works).   I also had the rear axle rebuilt. new pinion and differential bearings. and upgraded the differential from a standard to an Eaton Truetrac.   2. 76 Gear set was swapped for a 3. 55 by the previous owner.

Engine is an Original Numbers Matching Engine 383.

Transmission is the Original Numbers Matching 727 and it shifts smooth.   Transmission does hesitate at cold start. but as it warms up it performs very nicely.   I have a rebuilt 727 that I picked up that will come with the car.  

I have completely replaced all brake components.   Master Cylinder. Power Brake Booster. Wheel Cylinders. and brake shoes are new.   Drums were turned.   Car stops great.

Power steering

Interior is in great shape – White Seats / Black Carpet & Door Panels

Exterior:  Again this is a solid and straight car.   However. the car does have a few minor dings and scratches that you would expect on a car of this vintage.   Dings are mainly on the chrome trim and bumpers.  

All electrical functions as it should.  

I have tried to be as thorough as possible with my description of the vehicle. but there is a chance that I may have missed something.   I welcome any and all questions and I welcome any vehicle inspections.

I have a clear Michigan Title.   Freight and applicable taxes will be the responsibility of the buyer.   Car is listed for sale locally so I reserve the right to cancel this offer at any time.   Car is being sold as-is with no warranty.
