Not anymore, but I had a '73 New Yorker Brougham a long time ago that I liked a lot. Power everything & a 440 that felt like a living room on wheels. I paid $200 for it, had the trans rebuilt, then 100 miles later had curbed it in a snow storm & bent the frame. Some idiot in a compact car pulled in front of me & spun out. I avoided the idiot, but hit the curb. Never fixed the car so I yanked the 70k mile 440 & fresh trans & saved it for another car.

Of course I'm still saving it today & probably for my '68 Charger.   :lol:

1 1960 Plymouth Suburban Deluxe Wagon.

2. Just sold my 1961 Chrysler Newport 2-door hardtop this week. The damn thing was about a foot and a half longer than a 3rd gen Charger, which surprised me. The garage seems huge now.

Nice 2 door wagon.   :cheers:

There was a '57 2 door Suburban wagon for sale near me in the paper about 10 or 12 years ago for $1500. I was very tempted to go look at it but knew I shouldn't or I'd have one more unfinished project taking up space.  :lol:

Sorry.

I didn't mean to exclude the older big cars, Cooter.

Virgil Exner was a genious.

Guess I should have said 78 and older full sized.

Cool cars guys....

Keep 'em comin'

I have a 1968 Newport Convertible. Very solid car. waiting for its turn in the shop.

I've got a 78 New Yorker Brougham that I picked up from my wife's grandfather last year. He was the original owner. It runs great and gets about 23 MPG highway now believe it or not. I did put a msd style ignition on it and swapped intakes and carbs. but it sure responded well. Still slower than hell, but its smooth, comfortable, styling, and the 8 track player works :2thumbs:

Lots of people have been interested.

If I'm willing to donate it to them :eek2:


You wouldn't believe some of the stupid, bullshit offers I've had.

Fuck 'em.

If it doesn't sell...

I'll just keep it,

Put a new set of tires on it in the spring and...

:drive:



Which brings us back to the point of this post...

Who else has 'em?

Biggun's that is?

I'm sure your getting some classy trade offers also.   

If I get soft in the brain, in the future I want a 70 300 :2thumbs:

I have too many headaches now. :smilielol:

Yes, some of the offers have been WAY out there.

I'd like a '70 300 myself, nice cars, but I have too many projects already.

Do you have something to share?

Sorry. I got distracted and never came back to finish the post. Cooter is half right about the pictures. I would like to see it. The other thing was I might be looking at a real 70 Sport Fury GT. A friend told me where he seen one at a gas station in NJ. Hoping it's genuine. I can't tell you how many that turned out to be non GT. I think this is the longest time I actually don't have a C-Body.

A very fun car to drive. I beat the hell out of it. No one ever expects this thing to move out like it does. :D

I'm a huge C-body fan. Daytona R/T SE if that Imperial was a two door it would be in my Driveway the day you posted it.

If I had more garage space I wouldn't even consider selling it, or any of my other cars.

Are you sure you don't need a four door for the family? ;)

When my Uncle passed away back in 1990 he left me his 68 300 with a 440 in it. At the time I had a 70 Charger and a AAR so I guess he felt like it would be in good hands :yesnod:. I haven't used it much until recently, had it out running and licensed for the road this past summer. It sure can scoot, my Dad borrowed it for us to use on a family vacation back in 1969. He(my Dad)was never really a fast driver but he managed to get pulled over twice on I-90 in SD for speeding in one day. Out in those open spaces you really could feel no sensation of speed in the Boat. I took my Son and Nephew for a trip out on the freeway with it this summer and it felt like we were poking along at 75mph+. Couple of pics, although I may have posted them before somewhere on here. If so sorry for the repeat. It does need a little body work and paint along with a good detailing but all in all its still a good ride, except when it comes to trying to fit in current day parking spaces!

Had a 70 Fury 6 passenger wagon a couple years back as a daily driver.  383 2 bbl.  Back when gas was damn near $5 a gallon.  Sold it to some guy up in Minnesota, I believe.  Biggest damn thing I've ever driven.  I'd buy another one in a heartbeat, if I had the extra cash and found one local.
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.  Especially if they have access to the internet.

Thank you sir! I've been thinking of selling it. But I need to get another set of rims before I do that. No way am I selling it with those Magnum 500's. They are for my Charger. They are only on there because I converted the front brakes to disc, and the 14's no longer fit. I've been thinking of a set of Cragar Eliminator or Vintage G/T series.

I had a '66 Newport 4-door for a while, gave it to my sister when she got her license in high school, then sold it later on when I found her a '73 Dart.

It was different than yours, I didn't have, & don't ever recall seeing the small rear, side windows behind the doors.   :shruggy:

Mine is a Town Sedan, hence the extra side windows. Also the interior door panels have a "Town Sedan" script on them.
