65 New Yorker, first project car

[Lefty71]

The biggest issue right now is the fuel system. Currently not getting any gas. Have a family friend mechanic helping me look at the fuel line, fuel pump, and fuel filter in the upcoming weeks.

Good start! If problems seem to point towards the fuel pump itself, bear in mind that the camshaft driven pump push rod is prone to wear on these big blocks. Peeps have had issue with hardness on the replacements too. A good used original is the best bet if you should need one.

We'd love to see some photos of the car. 2-door? 4-door? Town Sedan? Color?

Here are some recent photos.

Don’t have hands to help get it back in the garage so side view is tough.

Oooh, the rare "white" taillights! It looks like a really nice car. 4-door hardtop flavor!

Very nice.

Nice!! Looks like an easy project car. I hate rust....this car looks like it has none.

Great looking NYer. If the underside is as clean as the rest, what a find.
Only item I see missing is the upper 'A' arm splash shields. Those are available in the after-market.
Would great to see it a Carlisle this summer.
