Vehicle Description
This is a really authentic, fantastic condition Chrysler Newport 4
door sedan. The car is very original in all aspects of presentation
and is a rare and wonderful find. Although not necessarily
considered a "collectable" by purist standards, its sheer condition
makes her so. This is a genuine 2 owner car that spent its whole
life in Illinois and showing a very low 43,000 miles. We do not
know whether this is true mileage but we do know the car has been
part of a private collection for more than 25 years. She certainly
looks every bit of a 43,000 mile example. Finished in Beige Mist
metallic ("code YY1") it comes with a very cool gold brocade cloth
interior. This Chrysler has been recently gone over by a local
work-shop and everything is in good operating condition. The car
recently underwent a tune-up and service. This was done by the
archaeologists who discovered her in the private collection. As a
result, the engine runs smooth and powerful. Brakes are good and
the car stops sure. All features and functions work well. The paint
on the car was redone about 8 years ago and is absolutely
spectacular. A very high-end job ($15,000+), it is slightly heavier
in metallic than factory but is stunning. All the inside edges are
original paint and in very clean condition (look at photos of the
underside of the hood and trunk - quite amazing!). The previous
owner indicated, prior to the repaint, it only had minor fading and
it was only his pursuit for perfection that led him to the repaint.
The body is entirely rust free as is the underside. Under the hood
has NOT been restored in any way and presents in original factory
condition. The whole car is very straight, accident free and has
never had any body repair. It is very shiny, consistent and simply
looks great from afar and under close inspection. All rubber, glass
and trim fixtures are in wonderful condition without any signs of
fading, marks or scratches. The hubcaps are without any scuffs or
rashes and look perfect. The bumpers and wheel arch mouldings are
virtually prefect. The interior is absolutely fantastic! Finished
in gold vinyl and brocade fabric on the seats, she looks incredibly
sharp. The dash pad is perfect without any sun-fading or cracking.
All the vinyl, fabric and carpets are great. The dash cluster is
clean and straight. The steering wheel is without a single crack.
The vinyl and fabric seats are in simply amazing presentation and
condition, totally clean and tidy. The seats are not only without
any tears, cracks, fading or marks but there is not even a loose
thread in the fabric! The interior condition is surely the best
testament for a low mileage example. Door panels, handles,
switches, knobs and every little item is excellent. The headliner
is good. The interior is without doubt a 9.5 out of 10. Just
stunning. The car all round is very original in all respects.
Sporting original hubcaps on original rims with factory jack..
