alsancle Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 I take back my last comment about there being nothing. This would be a great one, 41 New Yorker (assuming that is what it is - I can't tell). https://classics.autotrader.com/classic-cars/1941/chrysler/new_yorker/100854513 Hopefully just minor modifications.

Neil G Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Here's my 41 New Yorker, a really solid and complete car, been saving it for retirement, someone would have to want it pretty bad for me to let go 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
34studepres Posted April 16, 2020 Author Share Posted April 16, 2020 Thanks for the post of your '41 Neil. Does it run? Why haven't you restored it yourself? How much are you asking, if it's for sale that is? tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
34studepres Posted April 16, 2020 Author Share Posted April 16, 2020 Neil, I see you also have a '55 Lincoln Capri. I have a clear title and a matching VIN plate for that car with a color code of red on the VIN plate for sale if you're interested. I also have a ton of parts for the '55 Lincolns. I've owned 23 of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil G Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 (edited) The reason I haven't restored it is because I have to pick and choose my battles, last count I had 18 cars. I'd want 13k for it, bought all the new dash plastic. It turns over but didnt try to start it. My Lincoln is a 42k original car, needs nothing but love.

alsancle Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Not a 41, but a New Yorker in great shape! https://www.ebay.com/itm/254630841218 1948 Chrysler New Yorker Business Coup This is a survivor with a wonderful story. A true time-capsule. It was bought in September of '48 and was given to the author of the article (attached in the pictures) as a graduation gift. He drove it until 1958 and then the car was just parked in a garage until 2012 and only taken out on occasion. Stored virtually untouched for 54 years. My dad, the 2nd owner, bought this car in 2012. Since it was in storage for so many years my dad put great effort into putting it into perfect running condition. He would not hesitate to drive it anywhere: $1550 worth of new tires new fuel pump new water pump degreased transmission new timing chain rebuilt carborator hubcaps and trimmings polished new motor water-tube (nothing done to the pistons or valves) radiator flush replaced heater valves re-done brakes new generator It'll be harder to find a better origional that this. Car is located in Sheridan, WY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburnseeker Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 That's probably one of the best original examples you are going to find if that's what you are looking for. That potmetal chrome for the most part is very nice in and out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alsancle Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 (edited) Here is probably the nicest 41 you will ever find. Price is also about as high as you will find. https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/cars-for-sale/chrysler/windsor/2410968.html This is without question the finest example of a '41 Chrysler Windsor 3 Window Coupe[called a Business Coupe] that you will ever see. There are very few of these cars left in original condition because they were all 'hot-rodded' because of the sweeping lines of the rear end of this body style. Five window Coupes just don't quite have it. You can fit about 8 adults in the trunk. Vehicle specifics: Freshly painted in a factory original 1941 Chrysler Porcelain Green. Model: C28W This car was just finished and has less than 100 miles on it. It is as near flawless as you can get. But that's easy when you start with a car as original and completely rust-free as this one. Upholstery is NOS, just completed. Material was still on the roll when I purchased it. Standard Oil Test Car. This car was cherished by its previous owner because he bought it from a dealership in Green Bay after the car participated in a study that Standard Oil was conducting before they launched a new campaign for an oil they were introducing. Because the car was ‘special', the owner refused to drive it in the rain. Chassis: Factory bare metal, rust-free. Undercarriage is like a time capsule/untouched without a drop of grease, oil or dirt anywhere. Previous body damage/accidents: None Steering wheel: NOS Windshield glass and gasket: New Domed rear window: Original Door windows: Original Dashboard and door panel trim: Bakelite – Perfect Headliner: Original Carpet: New with factory original driver's side heel pad. Tires and tubes: New. 6 rib whitewalls Hub caps: NOS Gas tank: New Muffler: NOS Rear fender rubber stone shields: New Front suspension/bushings – New Brakes: New Original NOS Accessories/Add-on's: Red dash board trouble light, stainless steel vented wind deflectors, battery cut-off switch, and factory goose neck twin side view mirrors[$1000/set]. This car was just completed and has never been shown! In fact, very few people even know I own it. Transmission: First year of FLUID DRIVE[classified as semi-automatic]. Once you're in four gear as you approach a stop sign, it automatically shifts back to third gear and you start again in third gear from a dead stop; and the car never stalls. Amazing! It shifts like butter and easily achieves highway speeds. Motor: Chrysler Straight Inline Six, called a ‘SPITFIRE'. Referred to by motoring authorities as “Bullet Proof”. 242 cubic inches, 108 hp. Starts on the first push of the button, without a choke, no matter how long it's been sitting. No electric fuel pump; still uses it original mechanical engine-mounted pump. Two last things of note: 1. The number stamped on the Standard Oil badge is the same number as the VIN stamped inside the passenger door. 2. Sometimes I purchase cars for odd reasons. In this case, it was because the red wheels still retained their factory paint and hand painted triple gold metallic stripes. In 1941, Chrysler painted all of their cars with these pinstriped red wheels, regardless of the color of the car. To have four wheels that old without so much as a scratch or chip, and the pinstripes still so visible proved to me how original and preserved this car actually was. When I got the car, the factory overspray was still on the inner fenders and rocker panels. The undercarriage is like it just came from the factory. I have owned 130 classic cars, and have never seen an undercarriage like this. There are no disappointments here; and yes, this car is actually as nice as the photos indicate.

edk Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Hello, I need the Chrysler experts opinion on this Saratoga please. I am interested in bidding on this car but am doubting if that interior is original. They don't say it is, just say tan interior. It looks like original pattern but the fabric I am doubting? All the material I have seen in Chrysler of this era, excluding Highlander of course, seem to have faint stripes in it? Any experts out there that would care to chime in?? They also don't call the paint original, I am pretty sure it's an old repaint if they say it's lacquer. Any info appreciated. Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JACK M Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Last time I transferred a California non-op pink slip in Oregon there was no fee. Its been some years and I have a similar non-op for sale now so I hope that hasn't changed. If I understand correctly CA wants an annual fee for non-op cars. And if they get behind the back fees are charged before it can be registered as a driver. I like this car and it will probably sell, sometimes a $900 tax ain't so bad. Looks to be a nice car and will probably sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
