when these old Mopars are well maintained they're beautiful. when they're neglected they look like !@#$%^&*()...!!!
Old Mopars from the 70's are the equivalent of a Fiat. They looked great, great interiors and great transmissions but ran like crap.
I owned several 70's Mopars and Fiats. Great to see them finally merged.
Love that car. It would look so cool pulling a vintage camper trailer. I actually owned a '74 , great car but it was a horrid green.
Also owned a '77 Chrysler New Yorker again a horrid color, cream yellow. Both of those cars never let me down, they ran fine , used a bunch of gas and handled like boats. The New Yorker would always burn out the valve cover gaskets due to the heat from the exhaust manifolds so it always had a constant oil burning smell..
I'd really love to have a '69 or '70 don't remember exactly which year Hurst Fury. Those were cool as hell.
I actually owned a similar Mopar that I bought as a winter driver so I wouldn't have to drive my good car on the salted roads in Pa. It was a bloated pig of a car, very uncomfortable bench seats and just generally not fun to drive. Handled like a barge.
Mopars of the 60's and up until about 1970 were very cool but they started to change in 71 IMO, and not for the better.
the late 70's New Yorkers were superior to the earlier 70's Chryslers in terms of workmanship. i guess the waterfall grilles and flatter styling helped. unless an early 70's Chrysler was well maintained, it generally looks horrid but a 77 or 78 New Yorker seemed to avoid that label
