Got this last week or so. Forgot to post pics of it. 78 New Yorker 440 104k on it for $3000. Working AC, new steering gear, p/s pump, all front end parts, carb, and lots of other recently replaced parts. So far it's been an excellent jump in and daily driver with no BS. Of course the wipers broke first try but Ive never had a Chrysler that didnt do that eventually. Seemed a suitable replacement for my 77 Town Car driver. Enjoy, Brent.

Good thing for rain x! Nice car!
 
Kind of rare 78 Salon model.

Special wheels, leather wrapped steering wheel.

NICE!!!
 
Oh.....I forgot.

You'll have to fabricate a 74-77 small wiper cam set up if you want the wipers to work again. That 1978 big wiper cam is one year only part and there is zero replacements on the planet. Getting one from a donor 78 is a waste of time. Something inferior about that 40 year old plastic that just crumbles. You'll have to get donor parts from a 74-77 and fab a small wiper cam.

Can you post a picture of your fender tag and the driver door production sticker?

We are looking for the last Formal made.
 
I am in Oklahoma. And yes, Its Pats old car. I bought it from the guy he sold it to. Pat and I have traded in the past however as we belonged to the same Mopar club long ago. I just used a bronze bushing, fender washer and e-clip to replace the old bushing. Its seems to be working so far. Truth be told, I may be ditching those hubcaps and rings as I believe there are road wheels under there and I prefer that style. Ill post a pic of the tag tomorrow. Thanx for the kind comments ya'll.
