1955 Chrysler St Regis on 2040-cars
Lake George, New York, United States
|
Chrysler New Yorker St Regis Deluxe I want everyone to please note that in my eyes this is a really nice driver for local shows and cruises. I am overly critical and I would rather underestimate the condition than to overstate it. I would agree with the Hagerty Evaluation tool I would agree that this is a number 3 Hagerty. Please Google Hagerty Evaluation Tool for the infomation. Their price is much higher than my reserve . Please do not ask for reserve price. With that being said this restoration was sole sentimental. The car was located in a garage in Maine, and it needed everything. While the car was relatively rust free from being stored inside it was all original inside and out!
OD reads 76k plus While I cannot prove this be true .. from my experience believe it is so based on the originality of the car inside and out and condition. By original I mean every mechanical component had to either be replaced/reconditioned since it was all original.The car was redone inside and out and as you can see turns heads. I am only going to list the highlights because the list is very extensive.
Please note. While overhauling the entire brake system it was discovered that sometime in the past the right rear brake hub was changed to a 1957 chrysler. Exra brake shoes will be included. if you might need them . I am sure you can see where things are All the chrome and emblems replaced with either NOS/really nice used or rechromed by Paul's Chrome($3500) I have many extras that will come with the car including
With all this begin said much as been left out to keep auction somewhat manageable.
Runs as good as it looks.
All that it needs is just some tinkering if the new owner wants to as example connecting 6 volt spotlight lights.I did by pass the heater core while working on the car but have not reconnected... Town and County radio not working . extra radio for parts with car.
Please note the HI Way HIFI is for Prop use only. It does come with a few records and as you should know 1955 was 6 volt and HI way HI FI began in 56 as 12 volt.
Most Bills and a photo history as well as an extensived recorded history from Chrysler of this particular car including photo of build sheet Finally. The car was worked on by an old school mechanic who rebuilt bumper to bumper his own 55 New Yorker so please understand this was done as it should.
So much as been done and I am sure I have left much out but you get the idea. The car needs to be driven and showed off something I am not doing and sitting in the garage is not in the best interest of the car Questions please ask but I must make this clear as I idid with all my other ebay sales. I am respresenting this as a really nice driver. USA BIDDERS ONLY.... I will accept cash or wire Transfer to my bank only NO CHECKS but a $500 noreturnable deposit to pay pal will be required within 24 hours of auction. The car is Located at zip 12845 Lake George NY for you transportation quote. Please be sure to use a reliable transporter Pay a bit more and be happy .
The car is being sold AS IS WHERE is. There is no Guarentee or a warrentee with this ale in any form so please be sure you understand the terms so you will be happy with your purchase |

Chrysler names six new board directors
Mon, 16 Jun 2014Executives may call the shots day-to-day at the world's leading automakers - much as they do at any other corporation - but the ultimate decision-making body remains the board of directors. And Chrysler has just named six new members to its board.
The appointments include Hermann Waldemer, the former CFO of Philip Morris International - the tobacco giant whose Marlboro brand has funneled untold billions into Ferrari as the Scuderia's title sponsor for decades, and on whose board Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne sits. Waldemer replaces Doug Steenland, who came to the Chrysler board after Northwest Airlines (at which he served as CEO) merged with Delta, and whose term on the board expired just days ago.
In addition to the Waldemer appointment, Chrysler has expanded its board with five more seats, all filled by existing group executives. Among them are Reid Bigland (head of US and Canadian sales and of the Ram truck brand), Fiat general counsel Giorgio Fossati, human resources director Michael J. Keegan, Jeep CEO Michael Manley, and group CFO Richard Palmer.
Did a US automaker blow the whistle on Hyundai, Kia fuel economy issue?
Mon, 17 Dec 2012In all of the most hotly contested mainstream segments of the motoring universe, the difference of one mile per gallon averaged on a widow sticker can mean the difference between a sale and a walk-off - to say nothing of two or three mpg. So, when Hyundai and Kia were forced to reveal that many of their 40-mpg ratings were actually 38s and 37s, well, it made for big news.
It also, conceivably, made for a competitive disadvantage immediately, when the Korean automakers' products were being shopped versus the guys down the block. And it's that disadvantage that makes a recent story from Automotive News so juicy.
AN is reporting that Margo Oge, former head of the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Transportation and Air Quality, got a tip in 2010 that Hyundai/Kia were "cheating" to get its impressive fuel economy numbers. The tip, said Oge (who retired from the EPA this past September), came from a senior vice president from a domestic automaker. The source was credible enough for Oge to launch an audit of the Hyundai figures, which ultimately lead to the debacle that we reported on a few months ago, and that the Korean company has been trying to bounce back from ever since.
Chrysler recalling 630k Jeep models worldwide
Thu, 06 Jun 2013Despite its refusal to recall 2.7 million Jeep Grand Cherokee and Liberty models this week over a gas tank fire risk, Chrysler will be recalling 630,000 Jeep Compass (pictured), Patriot and Wrangler vehicles around the globe for a pair of entirely different reasons.
The affected Compass and Patriot models are all from the 2010 to 2012 model years - 254,000 in the United States, 45,400 in Canada and 109,000 elsewhere in the world. In these models, a software error may result in the late deployment of the side airbags and seatbelt tensioners. In the event of a crash, failure of these systems could result in more serious injuries for the vehicle's occupants.
Jeep's go-anywhere Wrangler also faces a separate recall due to power steering fluid lines that can possibly wear a hole in the transmission oil cooler line. According to Chrysler, the vehicles could then leak fluid, possibly damaging the transmissions. Roughly 221,100 Wrangler models are being recalled because of this issue, all of which are fitted with Jeep's 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine. In the US, 181,000 vehicles are affected, with an additional 18,400 in Canada and 21,700 additional units worldwide. A Chrysler spokesperson said that no crashes or injuries have been reported with either case, according to the Associated Press.
