    1968 New Yorker restoration

    Unfortunately because I just didn't have the time and way to many projects progress on the New Yorker was slow (and my updates on this forum even slower). But there was actually some progress. All the welding was done about a year ago and today it returned from the paint shop, next step will be...

    1968 New Yorker restoration

    Here are a few pictures of the New Yorker. I'm trying to make everything as straight as possible with just metal. I want as little filler on it as possible, but a rear panel like this warps very easily with to much heat. But so far it's nice, a few small bumps, but nothing that I can't fix with...

    1968 New Yorker restoration

    Unfortunately I haven't been able to do a lot of work to the New Yorker. I have been welding on the lower side of the rear window, starts to look good, but not finished yet. I will upload some pictures, but for some reason it doesn't want to work. I have been very busy with my daily driver...

    1968 New Yorker restoration

    It's funny how small the world can be. It is definitely my 69 dodge pick up you see every morning, not a lot of those driving around and it's quite recognizable. I also drive a black 2002 mustang, maybe les recognizable as the dodge, but you will hear it coming..... Haven't been able to do a...

    WANTED 1968 New Yorker rear bumper in good condition

    It is a bit worse than I expected, it looks straight, but needs new chrome. I've asked my contact in California to check for options to get it rechromed. I will let you know.

    WANTED 1968 New Yorker rear bumper in good condition

    Have you been able to find out anything? Otherwise I'm going to try to get everything arranged to have somebody pick it up. Could you perhaps send me some good pictures and what you want for the bumper? Maybe in a private message. Thank you

    WANTED 1968 New Yorker rear bumper in good condition

    Would it be possible for you to get a quote for shipping it to California? If it is the correct and a nice bumper I'm seriously interested.

    WANTED 1968 New Yorker rear bumper in good condition

    Thanks for the reply, I'm going to check what it would cost to get it shipped to our car shipper in California. Having my original bumper rechromed would be about 2000 dollar here in the Netherlands and in my opinion my bumper isn't a great core to start with. So with that in mind I do have...

    WANTED 1968 New Yorker rear bumper in good condition

    Hi everyone, For my 1968 Chrysler New Yorker I'm looking for a good rear bumper. It doesn't have to be in like new condition. As long as the chrome is nice and the bumper is nice and straight I'm happy. I have a dodge van that is being shipped from California so I can ship the bumper in the...

    1968 New Yorker restoration

    Have been able to do a few small things and again have a few more questions. First, does anyone know the color code of the light grey parts (taillight panel and panel below the headlights?). And I guess the center of the trim that goes on the side of the Chrysler was originally painted black...

    1968 New Yorker restoration

    I already thought so, but I wasn't sure. The engine has the same date stamp (June 7), so I'm pretty sure that it must be original.

    1968 New Yorker restoration

    Have been able to do a bit more work today. And dive a little bit deeper in the engine numbers. I'm still amazed at how straight the old lady is, the sides are incredible, the doors fit perfect and when you close them they make that nice solid sound. Also the trunk and hood fit really nice. I...

    1968 New Yorker restoration

    Thank you for the tip. I have already mailed a few salvage yards that told me the same story. Shipping isn't the problem, I work for a car dealer that imports classic cars from California, so when we import a pick up I can put it in the back. I can rechrome it here in the Netherlands, the...

    Here are some pictures of how the car looks at the moment I'm still taking everything apart.

    1968 New Yorker restoration

    Thank you for the info on the sticker, that's great. I'm going to search and buy that one. And also going to check out you thread. No there is no competition needed on nos parts. I actually don't need that many parts and I'm afraid I'm not going to find a nos rear bumper..... There are a few...

    1968 New Yorker restoration

    No problem at all, I can understand. I'm not in a hurry at all, still have quite a lot of work to do..... So if you (or somebody else) are able to check some time what kind of sticker belongs there I would appreciate that. I just really like it if all the stickers are there so I'm going to buy...

    1968 New Yorker restoration

    As far as I can tell from the pictures al the stickers are there on my car, except the sticker on the right front inner fender (passenger side). I can see there used to be a sticker, but it is gone. What kind of sticker used to be there?

    1968 New Yorker restoration

    Thank you for the pictures. It really is a nice clean car! I really like the bucket seats and center console. It does give a great impression how it should be. My New Yorker is not that bad, and as far as I can tell it looks really original except for the engine itself. I already knew that, the...
