Listed on Offer up in Los Angeles. Not much of a description. The listing says “best offer”. I made one and he countered. I won’t post the details but will say if you want a big red Chrysler sedan this ones worth asking about.

That is the second red '72 Newport sedan for sale of which I am aware. Another one has been for sale in O'Fallon, MO for quite some time. CL41T2C134782 is on FB. $4.5k is the asking price. Not mine...

PS: What's up with the passenger-side A pillar on the LA car?

What are you seeing that looks wrong? I can't spot anything out of the ordinary.

Not clear if this is an optical illusion, but it looks as though there is either white paint or a whit strip of plastic/rubber where red paint or bright trim ought to be. @Tallgrass65 -- have you seen the car in person?

That is the inside lip of the drip rail molding.

I haven’t seen it in person, not sure about the A-pillar. The seller said it has a 360, 20 something thousand miles. Interior looks reupholstered?

Yes, just the drip rail trim. Does look a bit duller than usual. Could possibly have some primer overspray on it. From your blowup, I do see that the dome light switch has been painted over, then checking other shots it's obvious that the door latches have been painted over too. I'm now suspecting a color change may have taken place.

A-pillar trim (continues the full length of the rain rail trim), standard on sedans. There is no roof rail seal on sedans.

Thanks for using five extra letters and stating "not mine" in the title, instead of being lazy and just putting "NM", so that it looks like it's in New Mexico and within field goal range to actually score the car or whatever is in the ad.

Thanks

Funny. Every time I see NM I think, oh I might be able to score one! to no avail.
