Beautiful car! Thank you for giving it a good home.
It's an art form.I'm curious how you intend to hide something this size from your wife......![]()
Looks like a nice one. Mine also has the 440. Not crazy about the lean burn. Wonder what it sold for. Anyone know?This came to mind when I saw your car...
1978 Chrysler New Yorker | Streetside Classics - Classic & Exotic Car Consignment Dealer
Bought it outside of eBay for a bit less than asking..... That's why it's not on the sold listing.
Have to ship it from Livermore California to Miami Florida. $$$$
Should be here soon.
I just looked through the thread....
Did you buy this car sight unseen? I'm looking forward to your report (and pictures) on condition when it arrives in Florida. I assume the previous owner isn't above ground anymore to talk to about the car. Do you know if the wipers and the sunroof works? The Lean Burn conversion is easy if it is still hooked up. Do you have a picture of the engine compartment? It might be already converted. Also if you could post a picture of the fender tag and door production label. We are still searching for the last Formal made. I believe the oldest so far was the silver Ny'er Salon owned by I believe Patrick in OK. June 1978.
Silver/grey is good for a Florida car. Beats the hell out of white.
Nice car!

And now you have a beautiful example.
Did dad buy a 78?
Fair enough, a Cadillac at a good price was the way to go.No. He bought a brown 79 Sedan De Ville. He had done some work for a local Cadi dealer and they made him an offer he couldn’t refuse.
