Got us a 1967 New Yorker

[Xcudame]

Nice 67 New Yorker! Looks to be in great shape! I love the blue!

The ideal vacuum reading should be nice and steady at idle between 17 and 21 inHg. And no, the 440 isn't very economical on gas, but can get 12 or 14 mpg if mostly cruising on the primaries.

Ah, the deer whistles. My mother swore by them but most laugh at them. Testing has proven they don't work but perhaps a person hits the Deer that is fleeing the whistle.

if i"m reading correct. somewhat unusual 408= 2:76 sure-grip

My 69 300 has the 276 sure grip

I will check that out!

I believe those are deer whistles, they create a very high pitch whistling sound that we can’t hear, but irritates deer, to avoid them damaging your car.

I don't believe I have seen deer whistles on front bumpers since we moved to FL over 25 years ago. That brings back memories

Hi Chrysler fan, where are you in Florida? I'm in Tampa.

Nobody has mentioned yet that this car has leather seats, which you don't see very often.

I don't recall seeing them in any 68s, 67 seems to be the only year for this style of seat, and this seat pattern is specific to the leather. (unlike 65 300 seats, which have the same pattern whether leather or vinyl).

Great looking car.

I'm looking at the build sheet and the fender tag. Is there anything we can figure out here that we don't already know? Like figuring out which of the 2 and 3 digit codes on the build sheet correspond to particular items on the FT (if there are any that are not "known" to some or most of us?) How many examples of '67 build sheet have ever been posted?

Car has power antenna? AM/FM radio? Item 451 (brakes) = 1 means what?

@HWYCRZR note the rear leaf springs 256 / 255. I wonder how many leafs.

6 leafs

I am into cars and not interested in any ball sports. Too many overpaid prima donnas!

No need to be sorry.
