I haven't done it but I do firmly believe the launch would be much better with the high stall converter, but the fuel consumption would be miserable if you had to drive the one with the high stall converter with a 440 under any condition.

The 383-2 engines generally have the 2.7 axle and the 383-4 have the 3.2 axles. I have not rebuilt transmissions for these two applications but I have for the 440 standard and HP engines. It has been some time now since my last rebuild of one, but I believe the only difference was the HP...

All I can add to this discussion is that I have two 1970 Chrysler 300s and one is the 440 std. performance and the other is HP plus I have numerous standard performance 1971 Chryslers and a couple are HPs. All I can say is if there are different stall speeds between any of them, I certainly...

Here is a listing from Facebook on a clean 1971 Chrysler Newport 2 door. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1032601981338750/?ref=search&referral_code=null&referral_story_type=post&tracking=browse_serp:b6938397-cc0f-41e8-98c9-27c9090d7290 1971 Chrysler newport 2 Door $10,900 Listed a...

All 1969 Imperials that were hard tops came standard with a vinyl roof. It looks to me like that one was no exception but rather someone was creative in forming a filler piece that mimicked the original rear window filler with maybe a metal one - it is really hard to tell what was done but the...

I have placed an order for some interior parts that are not big ticket items but if you have a need for the sheet metal it sounds like and you decide to get it maybe you could sell me those parts separately. Because the parts I need are not expensive ones he might not even fill my request...

What has me wondering about this whole situation is if it could have been somehow saved given the alleged circumstances it seems to me the seller could have gotten upward of $25K at least for that car with no trouble given the miles on it and condition. I doubt the sale of the attractive parts...

I Since you have read the actual laws on on the matter, why not give him a call to extract more information from him than we already have. It would be entertaining probably.................................

Believe me I thought about every way conceivable myself but I couldn't make it work and I wonder whether the owner of the yard would even let it happen. Oh well, I can't win them all................................

Uh, the rear axle was sold on the first day so how would you get it to your destination? Believe me, I actually thought about it...........................but it is about half way across the country for me. The owner probably would also tell me no can do for some other liability reasons or...

The salvage yard owner also told me he had an early Road Runner also like new with very low miles that met the same fate in his yard and he was frustrated there was nothing he could do but part it out. I don't get it either because the circumstances just don't warrant that draconian kind of...

1962 New Yorkers were only 4 doors but at least with that highly arched rear roofline, it looked much better than the usual dowdy low C pillar designs most other 4 door vehicles had back in those days. The interior in that New Yorker is not grey but rather a greyish brown. While the 1962...

I ran across this listing on Facebook regarding a 1971 pristine low mileage 1971 Chrysler New Yorker being parted out - but the wrecking yard had no choice the owner of the yard tells me. The car has only some 15K miles on it. 1971 New Yorker selling parts only. Sold the Engine,Transmission...

I believe every single one of us goes to the "woodshed" at various points in our lives so we learn to take things down a notch for our own sakes and maybe correct some blind spots. I sure know it has happened to me more than once in my life but in each case I realize I am better off for it when...

The interior does look original as best I can recall from those days though it may have been redone, but correctly. My dad had a 1955 Chrysler New Yorker St. Regis Deluxe model and it had similar upholstery and leather trim much like this Imperial. Those were gorgeous cars and it deserved a...

That is S6L2 Beige and not really white.

It seems to me that something is amiss in terms of color on this car. I look at the door jambs and then at the exterior and I don't see how they match at all. In looking at my factory color & trim book for 1971, the exterior looks to be GF9 avocado metallic and the door jambs more like GF3...

I still have two of these 1971 Coupes left so I think I have my hands full at this time. When RIP visited my asylum fairly recently he already expressed interest in at least one of them. I didn't have the heart to disappoint him about his usual offering price though.........................so...

I generally don't like skirts because they tend to make the rear ends of the cars look tail heavy and out of proportion with the rest of the car. After a few years of use, the rear leaf springs tended to lose some of their arch and just added to that imbalance to my eyes. I was told by the...
