SOLD 1978 New Yorker Salon

[Kip Gardiner]

Hi and thanks for looking at my 1978 New Yorker Salon Edition. It has 7” turbine wheels, sunroof, and the optional red leather interior has no rips.


It has a rebuilt 440 engine and I installed a gear vendors package but I still have the original tailshaft if anyone wants to convert it back. Rear differential is 3.21 sure grip posi. Tires are 90%. Optional air ride suspension. 6-way power seats, infinity sound system and much more. Text for more pics and details. I’m located just north of Toronto, Canada. Priced to sell at C$5000.

Thanks

I have seen this car and have known Kip for many years.
(I met him when he broke down in my driveway. )
I can vouch for him and his beautiful Salon.
I think it's a steal.
GLWTS, Kip.

The burning question is...does the A/C work?

The burning answer is yes it does work but for some reason the clutch seems to slip slightly in low AC. High AC works fine but no worries. I’ve got a new AC clutch I’ll leave in the trunk when you pick it up ok?

Nice looking car at what seems a fair price. Good luck rehoming her.

Thanks Stan. Hope all is well in Sebring. For those that don’t know, I’ve known Stan since I bought the car in 2007 and Stan did assist me with an alternator issue while I had the car in Florida. As payback I did locate and ship all Stan’s 4-speed conversion clutch linkage from a local yard here.

Picking it up, or getting it delivered?

Considering two options since its Canadian titled--

1. Send one of my flatbed pals from US to get it and then I deal personally with Federales after, OR

2. (more expensive, but it'll get done right, and my preferred course) arrange broker/transportation to drop it off in Lewiston and have my guys grab it from there.

Hey Stan. Can you also vouch for Ray? I have his 1978 Salon car in my shop awaiting pickup.

Hey boss. wasnt looking specifically but all Salon's catch my eye.

Perfect storm tho

1. Like it & exchange rate in my favor
2. Talked to Kip at length about it
3. Honest representation of it by Kip
4. Nearby my WNY "Fleet" operations
5. Equipped with parts that give me options for a couple other cars
6. Last, puts me ONE over my limit for the year, so now I gotta move this one (local sale, NO Ebay I dont think). I am still bleedin' like a stuck pig after getting hit by that "bus"
