For Sale 1972 Town & Country - CA

[Homerr]

$5,200

A Daily Driver from when I got it in 1978 until 2010 when it was garaged until last week when I took these pictures. It has been kept in good repair, although not always original as might be expected for keeping a car 43 years old on the road.

Modifications include an external transmission cooler, (not oil merely passing through a radiator tank) and steering oil cooler (both out in front in the air stream), and a high capacity electric fuel pump.

440 engine, Torqueflite 727 transmission, front disc brakes

Power steering, power brakes, power windows, power locks, power driver seat.

Body is Straight except for one gouge just forward of the right front tire. I still have the trim, just never got around to repairs.

36,000+ miles showing on odometer, it's been around a couple times.

Original paint, original vinyl trim, original chrome trim, original upholstery, original carpets, original floor mats, original Stainless wheel covers.

What looks like foil is Space Blanket, transparent from inside, which has kept sun damage to minimum for all these decades.

Seats in Good condition except for front which shows 40+ years of wear.

AC converted to R134, currently non-operational, needs new compressor seal which is included.

Haggerty suggested value, $5600.

Price, $5200, which includes numerous spare parts, many New-In-Box.

Yep........not even close!

 

[patrick66]

He's saying that Lennon owned one like it, not that his is Lennon's car.

 

[1978 NYB]

I guess.....

This was John Lennon's 'Other' car:

He's saying that Lennon owned one like it, not that his is Lennon's car.

And all C-bodies are associated with the 69 CHP.
EVEN:

"This 78 New Yorker is mightily equipped with the legendary 440 that..."

when somebody is selling theirs on ebay.

Anyone local who knows this car?

Interesting that the original ad at the beginning of this thread on this site says odometer showing 36K miles, but it has been around a couple of times...................

But the current Ebay listing says it has 136K miles on it. It was an old lady that was selling the car originally and she said it had been around a couple of times. This guy says he bought it from an old lady, so he must know the truth. Buyer beware...............................
