INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS ARE VERY WELCOME THIS 1961 CHRYSLER NEWPORT FOUR-DOOR SEDAN IS PRETTY MUCH AS FOUND AFTER A PERIOD OF MORE THAN 34 YEARS IN DEAD STORAGE IN A BUILDING WHICH HAD WOODEN FLOORS. NO ATTEMPT HAS BEEN MADE TO CRANK THE ENGINE USING THE STARTER. THE ENGINE TURNED QUITE FREELY WHEN A SOCKET AND RATCHET EXTENSION WERE ATTACHED TO THE HARMONIC BALANCER. THE THREE-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTED VIA A FLOOR-MOUNTED LEVER. THERE IS NOTHING WHICH WOULD INDICATE THAT THIS CHRYSLER WAS CONVERTED TO MANUAL TRANSMISSION FROM AUTOMATIC. IT CLEARLY WAS BUILT AS A STANDARD SHIFT UNIT WITH MINIMAL EXTRA EQUIPMENT. THERE IS NO POWER STEERING OR A/C. THE CAR DOES HAVE POWER DRUM BRAKES. WE SUSPECT THAT THIS BRAKE BOOSTER MAY HAVE BEEN ADDED AFTER DELIVERY. THE UNIBODY HULL IS SOLID. YOU WILL NOTE A SMALL AREA OF RUST-THRU AROUND THE HEADLIGHT AREA OF THE RIGHT FRONT FENDER. THE SEATS AND DOOR PANELS ARE VERY PRESENTABLE. THEY SHOULD CLEAN UP NICELY. A NEW HEADLINER WILL BE NEEDED. FRONT BUMPER REALLY SHOULD BE RECHROMED. REAR BUMPER IS GOOD. TIRES HOLD AIR OK BUT ARE VERY OLD AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE BRAKE PEDAL CURRENTLY SINKS TO THE FLOOR. THE CAR ROLLS AND THERE SHOULD BE NO MAJOR ISSUE LOADING THIS CAREFULLY ONTO A TRAILER OR ROLL-BACK USING THE PARKING BRAKE AND MANUAL TRANSMISSION TO CONTROL THIS MOVEMENT. I HAVE A CLEAN CURRENT MINESOTA TITLE IN MY NAME. THIS TITLE SHOWS THE ACCUMULATED MILEAGE AS "NOT REQUIRED". CURRENT ODOMETER READING IS SOMEWHERE UNDER 50. 00 MILES AND IS BELIEVED TO BE ACTUAL. THE CHRYLSER MAY BE SEEN IN OAKDALE. MINNESOTA BY APPOINTMENT. THANKS FOR VIEWING THIS LISTING.
