1966 Chrysler NEW Yorker Hardtop in VIC

Regrettable sale my rare optioned 1966 Chrysler New Yorker Hardtop. Genuine 91. 00miles low owner car.

Matching numbers 440 TNT . 27 torqueflite and 3. 23sure grip 8 3/4diff.

The car is a super rare hardtop and you would be lucky to find another with its options.

Car is factory desert beige. crimson red interior. factory 440 TNT. T-bar auto. suregrip diff. with air conditioning. rear heater. power steering. Car also has all the factory books. even the factory owners manual. Even the ash trays are like new.

Car has nearly gone through a near complete chassis off restoration.

Listed below is what has been done to the car.

All rust removed and car repainted from original desert beige to Chrysler 300 red to match the factory crimson interior.

Complete undercarriage has been rebuild from rebuilding the factory leaf springs. new bushes and ball joints in the front end. Stone guarded undercarriage also.

All new wheel cylinders. brake lines. new brakes through out. Also converted the single circuit master cylinder to dual circuit for safety. Brakes are factory 11x3 inch drums at the front and 11x 2. 5 inch at the rear.

Fuel tank has also been replaced as well as new fuel tank sensor fitted.

New uni joints has also be fitted. Auto transmission has also been overhauled

As the motor had only done 91. 00miles I just fitted new bearings. stem seals. water pump. new radiator imported from the states. rear main seal. iming chain and gaskets.

Motor runs great but would do with a good drive to loosen the rings up as its been in storage in the states for 20 odd years before I got it.

Car has brand new 15 inch magnum wheels 15x7 at the front and 15x8 at the back with 225/70 tires at the front and 255/60 at the rear.

I also sourced from the states near NOS tail lights as the original ones where pitted.

The car also has the original twin exhaust which is in good condition tho I fitted 2 two mufflers.

Some of the moulds and trims have been repair and rechromed. tho some may still need to be done at some stage.

The bumpers are in good condition but would be perfect if rechromed as I had the straighten and chromed. but had issues with the chrome plater so picked them up from him before they where completed. The bumper are in better condition then when I purchased the car.

The interior of the car is all original except for the roof lining which is brand new.

The seats are in great condition but the front seats will be retrimmed if I get the price I'm after. I purchased new vinyl trim from the states ready to retrim the front seats. The car also has new lower door seals.

Other then a couple of things the interior is in great shape for being 50 years old.

The boot floor is also fitted with a replacement factory style boot mat.

The Car drives great and would make a great cruiser.

Only selling the car a I purchased a new mustang and have no space to keep the car as I have too many projects.

The car does have a few minor faults as to be expected and most of them will be sorted before sale.

I also have the complete photo records on what has been done to the car if wanted to be seen.

Car shouldn't need anything for Rwc and after COTM it will be on club rego.

It will be a regrettable sale and I will miss it as it's a pleasure to drive.

If anyone has questions about the car feel free to contact me on 0447 440 360

Cheers Peter
