    Can't Help Myself...Had to Buy It

    LOL on the 'cup holders'. Things like this just seemed to be the M.O. of the Greatest Generation - "You want to drink coffee in a car? OK, college-boy, we'll tell Engineering to drop everything so we can to give you a place to put your fancy Dixie Cup..."

    Can't Help Myself...Had to Buy It

    I bought from a guy who had some cars (incl that Imperial) in a Storage Facility. Unfortunately, he sold that Imperial. I also like that gen of Imperials. It seemed like one of the few models that Chrysler got that right during that period. At least, from the aesthetics.

    So....now what? I've got a pretty decent backstory that I'll include when I get some time. The short version is that this is my 2nd 1960 New Yorker (NYR). So, I guess it's like in Futurama, this is the NEW New Yorker (NYR2). This one isn't in as great shape as the first one, but it's pretty...

    Anyone Have Interior 'Swatches' for Seats [1960 New Yorker]?

    I have a 1960 Chrysler New Yorker 4-Door which has seats in need of re-upholstery. They are OK for now & not horrible, but the 'broadcloth' (I believe that's the correct fabric) part is deteriorating. However, the 'Insert' part, a golden srarlite-looking pattern, is holding up well. Since I'm...
