Selling my 1963 Chrysler New Yorker Salon. This a rare car! They only made the Salon model in 63-64. In 63 they built 593 and in 64 they built 1,621. Thats only a total of 2,214 in 2 years! This car has every option including AC, Power Steering, Power Brakes, Auto Pilot (cruise control), Power windows, Power seat, head rest, Arm rest in front and rear, rear cigarette lighters, map lights.....etc. See the pictures for the full list. It has a 413cu V8 with a automatic push button transmission.

I bought this car as a project because its just cool, but I just don't have the time to fix it. When I got it there was no radiator, air cleaner, or starter, but everything else seems to be there and original. After I bought it I put in a new starter, plugs, wires, and carb kit, but could never get it started. It turns over slow so I put a oil pump primer on it and it wouldnt' pump. I installed a new oil pump but still could never get oil to the top end of the motor and that is as far as I got. I think theres a possible oil passage blocked or bad bearing in the motor somewhere which isnt allowing oil to the top of the motor. I have not pulled the motor and verified this though. The tires are currently flat but should air up fine.

There is some rust in a few places as well as some bondo on the hood and trunk lid and wheel wells. It appears to have been repainted at some point, but most of the clear coat is gone on the top side.

I have the original owners manual where the dealer filled out the info on the car. It was originally sold in New York and even have the name of the dealership that sold it!

This would make a great restoration project but I just don't have the time or the funds right now and would rather see someone get her running then just let it sit longer. I have a clear Title. Feel free to ask questions. I also have this car for sale locally, so reserve the right to end the auction early.

Payment is to be paid in CASH upon pickup and should be picked up within 2 weeks of auction end unless other arrangements are made.

Fiat stock rockets up after word of Chrysler deal

Thu, 02 Jan 2014

Now that Fiat has finalized a deal to purchase the outstanding shares of Chrysler owned by the United Auto Workers' VEBA retiree heathcare fund without having to file for an IPO, you can count the Italian automaker's stockholders among the happy. The Detroit News reports that Fiat stock closed Thursday with a 12-percent gain for the day on the Borsa Italiana, having been up by as much as 15.8 percent during the day's trading, at prices not seen since mid-2011. One trader reasoned the run was because Fiat "paid less than the market had expected and there will be no capital increase to fund this."
But there are some who worry, including bank analysts and unions. The final price of the stake will be $4.35 billion - $1.9 billion in cash from Chrysler, $1.75 billion from Fiat and extraordinary dividends in the amount of $700 million paid over three years. Adding that sum to its ledger will raise Fiat's debt level to roughly 10 billion euros ($13.8 billion), which Citibank says will make it the most indebted OEM in Europe.
Italian unions are also concerned about what the deal means for the future. Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne has had an at-times contentious relationship with both unions and the Italian government over the future of Italian manufacturing, a fact that makes headlines because Fiat is Italy's largest private employer. At least two left-leaning unions have publicly called on Fiat to give guarantees and to explain what the deal means for its Italian operations, while a centrist union argues this is "good news for Fiat workers, for the auto industry and for our country."

Detroit 3 small cars lay an egg in latest Consumer Reports reliability study

Tue, 28 Oct 2014

Consumer Reports has released its Annual Auto Reliability Survey and the results are, in a word, interesting. While we already covered the score-damaging effects of infotainment systems, there's another big angle to the data that's getting some attention - the utterly dismal scores of the Detroit Three's small car offerings.
The turbocharged Dodge Dart and Chevrolet Cruze, as well as the Ford Fiesta were their respective brands' lowest-scoring models, a stat that's made worse by the fact that the American automakers finished 25th, 21st and 23rd, respectively.
That's not acceptable for The Detroit Free Press' auto critic, Mark Phelan, who has penned a scathing critique of the D3's small car reliability scores, arguing that GM, Ford and Chrysler are "out of excuses."
