1974 New Yorker Brougham 2DRHT Survivor, was my dad's car, he bought it from the original owner here in the Reno/Sparks area. Has just over 78K miles, with original factory paint, code T5 Sienna Metallic, was going to install a new vinyl top before selling, but on a friends advice decided to leave it up to the new owner, as far as color choice etc. The factory top color was V1L which is Parchment or Beige. Also, by leaving the top off, you can see that besides a very thin surface rust, there is no major or minor rust on the roof or anywhere else. The 440 runs really nice, quiet, smooth and powerful. The 727 shifts perfect. I recently installed new front brake hoses and new semi-metallic brake pads, along with a new master cylinder, bled entire brake system, and installed a new idler arm. The front end still needs a little work, not sure what else it needs, maybe new strut rod bushings and sway bar bushings. It brakes extremely well with the new S/Met pads though. The interior needs some upholstery work on the driver's side seat, but the rest of the seats are just beautiful and still soft, even the top of the rear seat backs are still soft! One power window does not work, the passenger rear quarter window. The driver's window jiggles a bit when lowered, the window guide post needs to be lubricated. The top of the dash pad discolored after i cleaned it, but it can be re-dyed as it's still pretty soft. The driver's door arm rest has a cover on it that my dad installed to cover a crack i believe. My dad recharged the A/C, but it lost the charge over time. The cruise control works. It is a very loaded car, with Power Windows, A/C, Cruise, Tilt/Tele, Power Trunk Release, Rear Window Defogger, Light package, 6 Way Power Driver's seat, Power door locks, AM/FM 8-Track Stereo, LED Warning lights, ( one of the first Detroit cars to have them along with the gauges), Chrome Styled Road Wheels, etc. I have the build sheet and the original owner's manual. I polished the paint with Meguiar's products by hand, but i think that with a buffer, the paint will look spectacular for original factory paint from 1974. This car is coded on the build sheet as having "show car finish". There are a couple of very small dents, they are in close up pics. The chrome is still very nice, and still original. I hate to sell this car, but i already have too much to do and can't spend the time it so much deserve's. If you have any questions or want more pictures, please message me through ebay, and i'll send them to your e-mail. As with any vintage car, especially a survivor like this one, it's not perfect and will need some restoration work, but not nearly as much as most. Of course, it is sold as-is. Thanks for looking.

Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014
Thu, 27 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.
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.
2013 Ram HD and Chassis Cab pickups are ready for work [UPDATE]
Thu, 27 Sep 2012Auto enthusiasts often point to the pony car wars as the last bastion of one-upsmanship among Detroit's automakers, but the truth is, the pickup wars are every bit as competitive - if not more so. Auburn Hills keeps a ready eye on what their rivals in Dearborn and Detroit are doing, and vice-versa. Today, that battle is renewed with the introduction of Ram's 2013 Heavy Duty and Chassis Cab lines at the State Fair of Texas. Why a state fair? The Banner State is the perfect battleground for pickup supremacy, as Texas accounts for one of every five pickups sold in the U.S.
Towing and hauling metrics are poised for a substantial improvement. "... and not just by a little bit."
On the HD front, Chrysler is boasting that its brand-new heavies will bring best-in-class towing, torque, payload and Gross Combined Weight Rating, but thus far, it's declining to cite what those figures are. For the moment, though, Fred Diaz, President and CEO of Ram told us at an Auburn Hills background event earlier this month that key towing and hauling metrics are poised for a substantial improvement. "And not just by a little bit. I think we're going to shock the world," said Diaz.
