The mileage is original at 29139. It’s a 383 with a 2 barrel and starts right up. The entire car is original except for the 4 tires and the alternator. We still have the original 2 front tires in the trunk and we still have the rear snow tires. Interior is in great shape. Car was in storage but has been outside since 9/15/23. The person that owned the car was Ralph Hollweg chief architect for Robert Moses at the 1964 Worlds Fair in Flushing Meadows, NY. He bought it in 1971 and he died in 1973. His wife Rose kept the car in a heated garage and had it driven once a year for an annual inspection until she passed away in 2001. My dad bought it and barely drove it. When running it a few years ago inside the garage the battery overcharged and caps blew off causing some minor damage to the fender and under the hood, some paint has peeled off. It has not been registered or insured since 2019 but we started it frequently and drove it a couple miles from storage to where it is presently.
 
That's a nice car! I'm not even big into Chryslers, but I'd roll in that for sure.
 
Nice Newport. The selling price they quote is very reasonable.

I’m not a big fan of a vinyl interior in general, or a vinyl front bench seat in particular. I’d change those into ’70 Newport buckets and matching rear seat. I’d also ditch the 2-barrell for a 4-barrell and a matching cam. Other than that, I’s a beautiful car.
 
Hard to believe it hasn't sold. They're giving it away. If Robert Moses bought the Dodge version that year I'd be on my way .
 
Most definately a better investment than the new yorker, I like the originality! Plus the 2 door.
 
Being underutilized for so long, I wonder if it's a time bomb for a ton of future repairs.
I don't care. I want it, badly. It has a/c. That's all that is important to me.
Oh... and no vinyl.
 
Interesting that the car color matches the house. Where is this car?

I like the way you think! I meant to mention that in my reply, but forgot to. I was too impressed with this fine ride to keep my thoughts straight. The garage matches too, and it looks like their daily driver is close, but not as close to matching as the Chrysler.

Ad states that the car is in Holbrook NY.
 
I would love to see the tag. The invoice states "gray" as the color. Some of the photos make this Newport look GB2, but the trunk pics make me doubt that. @73Coupe may chime in, as I think that his 1971 NYer is the same GA4 color. And if that is right, then @Walter Joy may want to add CE23L1F167996 to his list of GA4 C-bodies.

From the ad: "The mileage is original at 29,139. It’s a 383 with a 2 barrel and starts right up. The entire car is original except for the 4 tires and the alternator.

I can't believe it didn't sell within an hour.
Either it is because of @commando1 or it is because the car is missing a trim chrome piece of its grille surround (driver's side). I can't think of anything else
