1973 Chrysler New Yorker
One owner Nevada car, sold new in Reno, spent 39 years in Fallon Nv. 23,050 original miles, 440, automatic. The car has been garaged the last 25 years. Engine/trans original to the car & never been tinkered with. Original Thermoquad carb, distributor, etc. Recent tune up w/ carb kit, plugs, wires & oil change. Replaced the fuel pump & hoses & belts for reliability. New true dual exhaust system & new radial tires (I have the original Goodyear white wall bias ply tires off the car). Never been in an accident, the original paint is in very good condition & will buff/clean up nicely. The stainless & aluminum trim as well as the bumpers are in excellent condition, these items will also hand polish nicely with little effort. Interior is in very nice condition, there are 3 items that are not excellent - steering wheel has cracks, dash pad has 1 crack on the drivers side (not noticeable from the inside), rear seat has a small tear on the drivers side bottom cushion. The following accessories work excellent: Power windows, power seat, power door locks, delay headlamps, cruise control, automatic e-brake release, rim blow horn, seat belt buzzers, all accessories lighting, AM/FM radio & the 8 track plays excellent. The following accessories need work to function properly: AC system is low on gas, power antenna. I found the Chrysler IBM punch card folded up & in the passenger side ash tray, most likely where it was placed 40 years ago on the assembly line. Neither ash tray has ever been used. The car starts, runs & drives excellent, it's a pleasure to drive, really floats down the road at 80.
I have a clear Nevada title for the vehicle in my name. The car is located in Fruitland, ID. The vehicle is sold "AS IS / WHERE IS", there is no warranty expressed nor implied. I'm quite confident you could drive it home with no problems. Shipping is the purchasers responsibility. Shipping ZIP is 83619.

Dodge not being dropped by Chrysler, CEO reaffirms
Mon, 16 Sep 2013Dodge isn't going anywhere. Despite some rumor and speculation over the future of the crosshair grille and the cars that wear it, Dodge brand boss, Tim Kuniskis, sat down with TheDetroitBureau.com, explaining that the marque isn't going anywhere. His sentiments echo those of SRT boss Ralph Gilles, who told a group of enthusiasts in July that "Dodge is here to stay!"
Dodge's death won't be "a part of a master plan to consolidate brands," Kuniskis told TheDetroitBureau.com. Instead, the brand, which is ultimately under the command of Fiat/Chrysler CEO, Sergio Marchionne, will likely ditch some of its badge-engineered models, like the Dodge Grand Caravan. A more focused Dodge, which was something Gilles has already hinted at, will likely see it exploring areas of the market that haven't been exploited by other Chrysler brands.
Kuniskis, not surprisingly, wasn't willing to delve into any detailed product plans, telling TDB that the size of the brand's lineup "remains to be seen." Regardless of how big the brand actually ends up being (it is presently Chrysler's volume brand - and not by a little), hopefully the statements from Kuniskiss can put the rumors of a Dodge closure to bed.
Marchionne offers belated apology for 'wop engine' comment
Wed, 22 May 2013Automotive News reports Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has issued a written apology for his comments regarding his decision to stick with an Italian engine for the upcoming Alfa Romeo 4C. As you may recall, back in January, Marchionne was quoted as saying, "I cannot come up with a schlock product, I just won't. I won't put an American engine into that car. With all due respect to my American friends, it has to be a wop engine." The CEO penned an apology to the Italian American ONE VOICE Coalition for using the racial epithet, saying that he made the comment in jest. Marchionne also said he realizes his remarks were unacceptable.
ONE VOICE, an organization aimed at fighting discrimination and stereotyping of Italian Americans, thanked Marchionne, Chrysler and Fiat for the apology. Marchionne is an Italian-born Canadian citizen, and he's gotten in trouble for other comments in the past. In 2011, he called high interest rates Chrysler was paying to the Canadian government "shyster rates." He apologized a day later.
Mopar celebrates 50 years of the 426 Hemi
Thu, 09 Jan 2014Think of Chrysler performance and the names Mopar and Hemi are bound to come to mind. Chrysler and its Mopar performance parts division first introduced the original Hemi (so named for its hemispherical combustion chambers) back in 1951, celebrating its 60th anniversary in 2011. But it was thirteen years later - 50 years ago - that the Pentastar automaker rolled out the most iconic Hemi of them all: the Gen II 426.
The massive 7.0-liter V8 engine instantly became a muscle car icon and went on to become a favorite of racecar constructors. Two competition versions of the Gen II 426 Hemi were made: one for the track and one for the drag strip, and both went on to illustrious strings of victories. The race engine first debuted at the 1964 Daytona 500 where it powered Richard Petty's Plymouth to the checkered flag and on to the NASCAR championship.
Meanwhile on the drag strip, the Gen II 426 Race Hemi propelled Don Garlits past 200 miles per hour and down the quarter-mile in 7.78 seconds. Changes in NASCAR regulations meant that Chrysler devoted the engine to NHRA drag racing, and to this day the Gen II 426 Race Hemi is still used in Funny Car and Top Fuel dragsters.
