1967 Chrysler New Yorker 4 Door Hartop on 2040-cars

For Sale by Owner all original 1967 Chrysler New Yorker with 440 ci engine and 727 transmission. One Owner car with super clean sheet metal. I originally bought the car for the engine and transmission for a Street Rod project due to the low original miles.I expected the car to be in rough shape coming out of Massachusetts but when I got there it was amazingly clean. When I brought it home, changed fluids and went through the engine, and got it tuned and took it for a drive it drove and rode like a dream. I decided to keep it for a while and drive it to shows because the body was too nice to send to the scrap. I think the pictures show how well kept the car was.

I put a 750 CFM Summit carburetor on it, new cap, rotor, wires and plugs and have been driving it on and off since last summer. It will sit for a month and fire instantly when I want to take drive. It has new tires all the way around, and runs and drives great. This is a car from the "Land Yacht" era and is really a lot of fun to drive. It has a luxury feel that they just don't make any more.The 440 in it has enormous torque and it will smoke the tires from a standing stop, even with the high gearing. This car will cruise all day at 80 mph and rides like a cloud.

For those who care, I specifically bought a 1967 because that year 440 motor is a 10.1:1 compression and has closed chamber 915 heads, which are a single year head found on the fastest Mopars of the time. These particular heads have the smaller valves but are same casting and I always figured on doing a valve job with hardened seats for unleaded fuel anyway . I intended to make the valve size change then because the parts and machine work cost no more to install the bigger valves when going to the unleaded seats. if you want an engine to hot rod this is the one you want, but it is a monster torque cruiser just the way it is.

I am selling the car because I just don't get enough time to drive it and I found another 67 New Yorker with the 915 heads with even less mileage so I have one more 440 than I need. Someone else should enjoy the car and take it to shows.

Fiat to list on New York Stock Exchange?

Mon, 06 Jan 2014

Citing the ever-nebulous "two sources close to Fiat," Reuters is reporting that the Italian automaker and owner of the Chrysler brand is likely to list itself on the New York Stock Exchange. The move could reportedly happen as soon as 2015, marking the end, at least in the minds of investors, of Fiat's 115-year base in Turin, Italy.
The Italian government is not likely to react favorably to Fiat's potential move from Italy to the United States, despite initially positive reactions to Fiat's landmark final purchase of Chrysler, the third-largest automaker in the US. Fiat spent $3.65 billion to buy out the 41.46-percent stake in Chrysler that had been owned by the United Auto Workers' VEBA trust fund.
With little sign of a swift European recovery, Fiat has little choice but to focus on markets outside its traditional home, and a listing in New York could potentially be a boon for investors. According to International Strategy and Investment analyst George Galliers, speaking to Reuters, "People [would be] more likely to think of the entity in the same context as they do Ford and GM" if it were listed on the NYSE.

Watch the mechanical symphony of the Chrysler 200 build process

Wed, 15 Jan 2014

For those of you who can't get enough of the 2015 Chrysler 200, The Pentastar put together a short video following its new sedan down the line at its Sterling Heights Assembly Plant. As with the best new-baby albums, you'll see it take its first bath, be doted on by family members, put on its first pair of shoes and get all dressed up for an introduction to the world.
The only thing missing are its first words. You can follow it down the line in the video below.

IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013

Wed, 02 Jan 2013

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.
