For sale a beautiful 1969 Chrysler New Yorker. It has a 383 motor, 727 transmission , 8 3/4 rear end stock gears, runs beautifully!! Power everything, original owner, original plates, very clean interior, straight body, minor scratches, some paint cracking on both sides by rear windows (see photos), some rust on the corners by the upper trunk and back window. Car has always been registered and maintained. The car was repainted awhile back. The interior has no tears, rips, or stains. Power everything, with factory A/C. Car is being sold AS IS. $3800

Lots of pics but a few caught my eye given what he says above about a repaint in the past.

A lot of ugly stuff hiding under that paint!

What a mess. Rust problems, not the original engine and not even a 440 now, and Auto Temp 1. The car is pretty much worthless except for some interior parts...................

Best things might be the power window switches, and the power window motors. The 383 ain't bad either. ;)

$3800?

He'll be lucky to get half of that. I mean really lucky...

Too bad it's so rusty, those '69 Yorkers are rare today.

Asking a bit much for a car with such rust issues and missing its 440.

it is too expensive.
But still could be used as some kind of daily driver etc.
No need to part it out as it doesn't have much valuable parts anyhow

Looks like they painted over rust. If that is what is readily visible it make you wonder what is there upon closer inspection. This may turn out to be a parts car.

Nice use of "shadow photography" to attempt to mask issues...

Nice winter car if you take the last zero off....

Yep good for a beater... ..I wonder what happened to the 440.

Dumb question I suppose.

Yep....a Valiant driving by you right now with a 350 HP 440 4BBL. LOL!

It could be worse. I test drove a '69 Yorker w/318 once. Engine swap w/challenger... Needless to say, after the test drive and seeing that almost empty engine room, I didn't buy the car.

He'll why'd you even bother with that?

Because black 4 door fuselages are my weakness. ;)

I knew there was just a SB, but you should have seen my face when I opened the hood... In that very moment I knew the car and I were not a good match.

Best thing are the California black plates. ;)
No guarantee for a rustfree car obviously.
