The problems I have had with my Chrysler, is that it has over heated twice. Because of the hoses. But that is the only problem that has acquired since I have had it. I have made some changes. The driver seat does get worn out, and the steering wheel lock has disappeared.
It's a great first car, people may make fun of it. But they won't ever own a classic car like this. I'm one of the lucky people that has the chance to enjoy a car from the past.
Talk about putting a positive spin on having to drive a 27 year old car!
You don't see a lot of the 1974-78 Chrysler Newport's on the road anymore, I'm a big fan of the luxury cruisers of the 60's and 70's and I still wish that they made cars this good today, last spring I saw a mid 70's (approximately a 1975 model) Chrysler Newport on sale for $800, the body was in good shape and it didn't have a lot of rust on it and the insides of the car was beautiful, at least that the mid 70's Newport's aren't as rare as the 1979-81 Newport's, my heart will always go to the classic beauties of the 60's/70's.
