RARE MODEL WITH HEMI 331
1953 Chrysler New Yorker
Vehicle DetailsHere we have an absolutely gorgeous 1953 Chrysler New Yorker Deluxe Newport Coupe. This was the top of the line Chrysler for 1953 and was built to compete with Cadillac. One of 3715 built with fewer than 6 remaining. This car was originally sold by Epton Motor Company of Anderson, S.C. to Mrs. Gertrude Dillard of Pendleton, SC on May 28, 1953. The original Chrysler Owner Service Certificate comes with the sale. This beauty is completely rust free and retains all of its original sheet metal. The car had a complete mechanical restoration in 2014 which included the original 331 HEMI was redone using all HotHeads equipment. A 270 cam, pistons, heads etc. high quality materials were used. Well over $6500 in the motor alone. A very rare 1954 4 barrel intake was used with a new Demon carb an custom fabricated original air cleaner with K&N filter to complete the look. At the time the restoration was done new dual exhaust, new wheel, bearings, wheel, cylinders were done. The original useless transmission was replaced with a 7 to 7 torque flight using the hot heads adapter plate. It runs and drives so much better with this combination and you could not tell with the naked eye that it has been replaced. Also, at this time, a new driveshaft, set of hobby car hobby car, wire, wheels and caps, new diamondback radials were added. The car was lowered to inches giving it a better stance. The interior was completely redone using correct materials and patterns. Material was provided by. SMS. Interiors out of Oregon. All glass is great. Windshield has some scratches from wiper on drivers side. All weatherstripping has been replaced. All gauges wipers and heater work as they should. The car was re-painted with the correct color. The roof was not as it was not necessary. The underside of the car has been cleaned, painted and under coded. Stainless trim is in great condition with the exception of some dings here and there. Bumpers are presentable, but sometime in the future could be re-done to match the quality of the car. Some pitting on doorhandles and hood ornament are present. This beauty runs and drives extremely well. Probably better than new due to rebuilt motor with more power and a better transmission. Please ask any questions as I may have overlooked something. God bless and happy bidding?
