"1969 Chrysler Newport 2 Door Hardtop
""The Chrysler Newport was introduced in 1940. A wild looking phaeton based on the Imperial Crown, the original Newport was built in just six units. Between 1950 and 1960, the name returned on two door hardtop versions of various Chryslers, including the Windsor, Saratoga, and New Yorker. The Newport didn't become a stand alone nameplate until 1961. The Newport remained in production through 1981, a run that included five generations."" Autoevolution.com�
For consignment, a 1969 Chrysler Newport 2 door hardtop with a title verified 57,254 actual miles. A high performance numbers matching drivetrain, and horizontal surfaces large enough to land F16s. 33,639 Newport 2 door hardtops were built in 1969 and many were put out to pasture when the oil embargo hit, and survivors today represent a time when big steel dinosaurs roamed the streets.
Exterior
The sheer size of the car is impressive and done up in its original single stage Crimson red paint adds even more pizazz and outwardly bold looks. A snow plow sized front fascia is framed in a chrome bumper that encircles the grille, making the standard four headlights look small, while out back, the tail lights are small given the width of the car. But the eighth wonder of the world just might be the size of the stamped steel panels, the massive hood, the giant decklid, and fenders and quarters that seem to go on for blocks. Amazingly, we are still in the era where one side mirror was standard. This car's white vinyl top is in good shape although some evidence of rust is noted at the base of the window trim. She rides on red painted 15-inch steel wheels with dog dish hubcaps and 75 series tires. Imperfections include a few small dents, and some rust through at wheel openings and lower panels.�
Interior
Nicely trimmed saddle brown vinyl covers the door with varying patterns and window cranks that are based in a concave disk, while armrests are dwarfed by the length of the units. Varying patterns are also found on the bucket seats up front with some slight difference on the driver's chair and no headrest. In back, 60's square design is stitched into the seats which are afforded lots of real estate. A modest brown steering wheel shows some cracks in the plastic rim but is otherwise nice, and leads to a horizontal instrument cluster with faded embossed numbers across the speedometer with patina across the dash. The wide floor below is covered in decent tan loop carpet and the headliner above, although showing some age, is intact and holds the shoulder belts in clips. The wide trunk shows use and contains a plaid vinyl mat and spare tire.�
Drivetrain
Hoist the hood up to find the numbers matching 383ci V8 with a 4-barrel carburetor and rated at 330 horsepower. It's mated to the numbers matching A727 Torqueflite 3-speed automatic transmission. The bay is driver quality although the valve covers and air cleaner box shine brightly and alternator looks newer. Power is sent through a long driveshaft to the rear axle where it meets a 8� inch axle with 3.23 gears. Power brakes are on board and configured as drums on all four wheels.�
Undercarriage
Driver quality underneath where surface rust prevails in mostly dry conditions. The dual exhaust is a hodgepodge of old pipes tinged by surface rust, and newer sections welded into place, traveling through two different mufflers on their way to exit via steel pipes. Suspension consists of torsion bars in front and leaf springs in back.�
Drive-Ability
This is not a land yacht. It's an ocean liner! A long and wide outside means a roomy inside and plenty of elbow room to steer this ship, and that's just what we did along our test loop where turns should be anticipated as you swing that big tail around. Good acceleration considering the girth, and decent visibility despite the C-pillars and lack of passenger side mirror. It tracks straight and the power brakes are a must! All functions including lights, gauges, radio, and turn signals, operate as they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.�
If you have a pole barn or warehouse, no need for measurements. But if you're going to garage this bad boy, you'll need at least 219 inches for this luxury cruiser, and cruise you will. You'll becoming the king of Main Street, USA in this larger than life Mopar with its numbers matching drivetrain. Big red is waiting for its next caretaker!
