    The pic you posted is a 65 - 6 window town sedan. A very nice looking car!

    66 New Yorker 440 - what do you hear?

    I will probably pass on it. The car is in Canada. $500 just to transport it to the border. $500-$800 for Customs paperwork. Then $1500 to transport it to me. Spoke with the owner again. He said the motor was really worn out before it was rebuilt. Pistons were rocking in the bores, so it needed a...

    Hahaha. That sounds like a plan!

    66 New Yorker 440 - what do you hear?

    Difficult to check compression or even the oil as I am not near the car. If I could see the car the decision would be much easier. Just trying to mitigate risk here. Thank you for the advice!

    66 New Yorker 440 - what do you hear?

    I can replace the brake line and do the repair myself as well as diagnose the ticking noise. I have a good transmission shop that can take care of that issue for a reasonable and fair price. I thought the same thing and had checked and most Canadian New Yorkers seem to have the correct tail...

    66 New Yorker 440 - what do you hear?

    It does seem like a good buy, but.... The owner is a car guy and knowledgeable etc. He was honest about the transmission leak and brake issues. My concern with the noise from the engine is that when I asked him if anyone ever looked into what the problem is - his response "it is what it is." A...

    Good observation! Thank you for that insight.

    66 New Yorker 440 - what do you hear?

    I agree with that. First thing I would do is pull the belts and isolate the noise. Maybe its the pump as several here have suggested. Anything can be fixed, but I wouldnt want to buy a car with a rebuilt motor - and have to rebuild it. I dont mind about the transmission repair or the brakes. Its...

    66 New Yorker 440 - what do you hear?

    Thank you for your observations and suggestions. I agree the Fury IIIs are very nice. My preference leans toward the big C body cars. A big block would be nice, but I wouldn't exclude a clean car with a 318. I definitely agree that putting eyes on a car and driving it is very helpful. However...

    66 New Yorker 440 - what do you hear?

    Thank you for the help and suggestions so far. I know you guys are real good with the Chrysler motors. Most of my experience is with GM and Ford. But looking to get in the deep end of the pool with a big block Chrysler!

    66 New Yorker 440 - what do you hear?

    My other concern was the oil pressure seemed high to me at 75psi, as shown in the video. Machine shop likely put a high volume pump in. Sometimes speed shops do that but I dont believe its necessary on a stock rebuild. A high volume pump could pump a stock pan dry unless it was replaced with a...

    66 New Yorker 440 - what do you hear?

    Its not my car and was considering buying it. Owner sent me a video. Of course its difficult to diagnose this by video. Exhaust leak at the head is a possibility, as it doesnt sound bad at the tailpipe and the sound seems more confined to drivers side. Engine seems to run smooth, which is...

    66 New Yorker 440 - what do you hear?

    I am not very familiar with Chrysler engines. I owned a 67 Plymouth over 30 years ago. A nice car, but that was my limited experience with Chrysler. In any case the housing of the water pump looked old and unpainted, while the rest of the motor looked fresh and painted. My concern was if they...
