1971 Chrysler New Yorker SDN review from North America
"I wish I had the money to restore it!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rusted brake lines when the car was 27 years old.
Body rust (car kept outside).
General comments?
I love the power seats, tilt & telescoping steering. Very roomy, large trunk space, and rides real smooth at high speeds (I never exceed the speed limit, of course) going straight.
Not good at sharp corners normally handled well by newer cars. Engine is original and runs beautifully.
