This car was in the for sale section this week. Ad was on/off CraigsLis in Detroit.
Carmine went to see it for me earlier this week, took really good pics that unfortunately disappeared with the thread that was HERE.
Joey said it disappeared HERE because the CL was bounced by CL? Seller is a good guy .. dunno what the deal was between him and CL .. and now I own this one.
.
Anybody with information/brochures to post or point me too .. a console car with two-tone interior in a "65 Newp is new to me ... would also be appreciated.
Yes, its getting white letter tires .. rims not sure yet
I will add more pics later and some along the resto path which will last all this coming winter.

Seller Description - $1,600 OBO
For sale is a 1965 Chrysler Newport 2 Door. This car is a real barn find. Sitting covered up since 1981, I am the second owner. It is currently not running yet. I was told it was a running car back in the day. This is definitely a rare cool Newport with the floor console and buckets, not too many were made this way,
It is a original 383 four barrel car with 109,00 miles on it. So it does turn over, just not fast enough to start it, I did all the cosmetic stuff to this engine, such as put in a new water pump, new fuel pump, Mancini 8 mil racing wires, new plugs, hi torque starter, new rebuilt alternator, oil filter, air filter, hoses and belts, I had the carburetor rebuilt for $200.00 dollars.
This car also comes with the disc brake assembly to convert over to disc brakes, (4) 15'' inch tires and rims and many new Moog front end parts.
The body is straight, it has great glass and chrome molding all around. It does have the original Mopar floor mats. It does have some rust in the rear quarters and the interior should be re done. Overall not a bad car for 53 years old to restore.
My goal is NOT "like it was brand new or better" .. I just want a really neat daily driver. Occasionally I will need to bug y'all (and Murray Park) for parts. NO A/C? don't care .. its a windows down cruiser for me. Skirts are in the trunk.For sale is a 1965 Chrysler Newport 2 Door. This car is a real barn find.
