| If you've been searching extensively for the St. Regis Edition of the Chrysler New Yorker Brougham Coupe and you want the finest example that currently exists with low mileage, your search is over, as this restored beauty is the finest example in the country. Chrysler manufactured many 4-Door New Yorkers in 1977, but only 2,400 St. Regis Edition 2-Door Broughams. The St. Regis Edition comes with the supple, button-tuck leather seating and half vinyl roof. The car also has the upgraded 440 motor and the odometer is just a few clicks past 46K! In addition, this land yacht is from Inverness, Florida and the undercarriage is spotless. Just to give you some idea of the work involved in keeping this New Yorker looking like factory new and original, here's a list from the past 1,000 miles:
-New evap coil
-New heater core
-New power steering pump
-New clutch fan
-New radiator
-New alternator
-New A/C compressor (blow nice and cold!)
-New 4 barrel carburetor (original in the trunk)
-New electronic ignition
-New dual exhaust with nice sounding mufflers
-New gas tank
-New fuel sensor and sending unit
-New hoses and belts
-New fuel pump
-New plugs and wires
-New cap and rotor
-4 brand new tires
-New rotors and calipers
-New rear brake shoes, wheel cylinders and drums
-New brake lines
-New battery
-New power window motors (both sides)
-New paint and vinyl top (a very professional job at a cost of $5,997)
-New idler arm front suspension
-4 new speakers
-New radio (original in the trunk)
The front and rear seats were reupholstered by the legendary "Tommy" at Michigan Mobile Glass (now Safelight), who painstakingly found the proper leather, stitched by hand and added the button tuck touch with the skill of an artist. He performs the finest interior work and his craftsmanship shows in the detail.
So, if you're interested in 19.6 feet of rarity at less than $4 a pound (4905 curb weight), here's your chance to give me a call and we can set up an appointment for you to see this behemoth in person. I have a clean Florida title, all the manuals and documentation (including original window sticker) to ensure that you're satisfied with my description of this gorgeous living room on wheels. Feel to call me (Peder) at 313-729-3671 or Tom (313-805-4265) if I'm not home.
Please keep in mind that this is a no-reserve auction and your bid is a legally binding agreement to purchase the car. I've had a couple of curmudgeons in the past who either wanted to negotiate after the sale or expected a Barrett-Jackson trailer queen, so please ask any and all questions before considering a bid. Also, I encourage inspections of the car and feel free to look closely at the 30 pictures that I've posted to ensure that you're satisfied with your bid. It really is the nicest New Yorker St. Regis coupe you'll find with such low, original mileage and prominence, but it is 40 years old and needs to be loved and cared for just like those who've owned it in the past.
Regarding payment... I expect a $1000 deposit via Paypal within 24 hours of the sale and the balance paid in cash, CLEAREDcertified check or Paypal within 3 days with no exceptions. If you are flying into Detroit Metropolitan Airport to pick her up, I'll be happy to meet you there and drive you to the New Yorker (only a 20 minute ride). Also, I'll be happy to assist with the pickup and loading of the New Yorker if you're having it shipped, but the buyer is responsible for all expenses. Low ball offers or trades will not be accepted, so please refrain from those forms of inquiries. Thank you and good luck during the auction! |
