129 1957 Chrysler New Yorker 

This car deserves to live again with all it's original equipment including the engine.

Pink Cadillac!! Humongous air cleaner on a engine that went down in history!! Long live the Hemi!!!👍🏻

Damn i hope this thing stays together..... What a time capsule

In the mid1960's, my Dad owned a 1957 Desoto 4 door. On a summer trip to Florida, we were at a truck stop in Georgia for lunch. Out in the parking lot, my Dad asked a trucker for direct travel for directions to St. Augustine. The trucker told my Dad that he was heading there to drop off his trailer of goods, and picking up a trailer heading for Texas. The trucker told my Dad to just follow him on the highway, all the way there if he can. Both of them fueled up the tanks, and off to Florida we were going. Despite the rain downpour we drove through in parts of Florida, my Dad was right on the trailer doors of this trucker all the way through Florida at very high speeds. I think the trucker thought he would lose my Father somewhere on the highway. Once we got into St. Augustin Florida and stopped at the truckers destination, I remember the trucker walking toward our Desoto asking my Dad: "What the hell do you have under that hood?" My Dad proudly opened the hood and said: "A Hemi". The trucker could not believe that my Dad stayed right on his tail all through Florida. The trucker said: All I saw in my mirrors was the dual radio antennas from the rear tail fins of your car. The trucker was amazed that the 57 Desoto kept up with him all through the state. Wish I had that 57 Desoto today.

Man, this is the era when cars had style and you could tell them apart from 20 feet away! Wondered where you went after the last TV show…Glad I found your channel Steve!

Yep, much prefer the 4door hardtop Chryslers.. BEAutiful!

I hate when people want to "part it out" just because it's a four door. These cars are super rare.All of them should be saved at this point.

Gorgeous 4 door hemi car , I hope it gets restored, I sure would

If i had that, I would slowly clean it up and get it back on the road as original as possible. Not replacing or refinishing anything unless it was absolutely necessary

We had one of these exact cars except in two tone white on light blue. Also we had dual radio antannas right out at the tips of the fins. I took my on road driving test in that car in 1961 in downtown Baltimore. We were driving along in afternoon city traffic when the examiner said park it there kid pointing to a random open spot along the street. Pull up, whip to the right, tuck in, pull forward exactly one foot from and parallel to the curb. The examiner was impressed and to this day I’ve never had to take another road test. Of course my mother and I had practiced and I had the advantage of a clear view of all four corners of the car as well as over boosted power steering.

I hope this goes to someone who'll fix it up for what it is, a super comfortable, sporty, and powerful 4 door...pls don't chop it up... luv 4 door hardtops

My first car in 1970 at 16 was a 1957 Chrysler New Yorker 2 door, 392 hemi just like this one. It was a silver/light blue or off white 2 tone. You could see the fuel gauge move! It was a tank! I couldn’t imagine letting my son loose when he was 16 in a car like that

Trailer hitch theses cars could tow anything with power to spare love it

These look so sleek as four-door hardtops!

Beautiful car, save it!

my favorite car, and the 4 doors are best because they are longest.

Back in the 1960s my buddy and I bought a few of these for the torque Monster engines. Have you ever done a comparison between a New Yorker 392 and the 300C/ 300D engines? Glad I found your great channel!

Hope it is restored to its former glory and original state

Ahhh being a Mopar C Body but I could see that beautiful thing sitting in my garage with my 66

The Chevrolet, Ford Thunderbird and this Chrysler New Yorker with the quad headlamps are my favorite 1957 models.

I know someone who went across the border into Buffalo a few years back, went to a really old wrecking yard. Stumbled across a large truck , he spied hemi valve covers. He ended up buying a 392 hemi , which he installed in a 52 Ford pickup.

4 doors never get much love, but are a great way to get into the hobby. Also 4 doors make for way better family hobby cars. In fact they are often passed over but that makes your buy in all the more cheaper. This pink Chrysler should be cleaned up. 392, power brake, factory air? Wow what a cool weekend cruiser

my older buddy had a 57 olds super 88 with tri power..it was pink!!!

Talk about a nifty car. My parents had friends that owned a ‘57 Windsor.

Yeah, i'm getting to the point i'd contemplate long and hard on keeping that 4dr. hardtop intact. Very likely a matching numbers ride. High spec car. Not some school district fleet vehicle. This was just as special to someone as a high zoot 2dr. hardtop.

Steve was prepared for rattle snakes.

Best one yet

This was my favorite model. I preferred it over the 300

Production total of this 1957 New Yorker 4-Door Hardtop was 10,948 units.

I'd like to see that when it was new..can't believe that motor still in it

My first car, dad bought for me in 1966 for $200. Drag raced and turned 16.29 best time. It would chirp the tires from first to second. Painted all white.

I like the 67-68 Chrysler Coupe across the way!

That's a real nice Car nice paint to it

good work

Pinky Mopar!

It’s like a 1959 Ford thunderbird/a 1959 Plymouth Also I see a few 59 Plymouth’s in the background!

I think we have got to the point where "That" won't get chopped up for parts!

I see that ‘58 Plymouth back there!!

I hate when people turn them into chairs when they are perfectly good cars

come do a walk around on the 58 extended biaritz sitting out back........love this video....

Should be restored and also I was eyeing that what appeared to be a burnt orange Newport in the background at the end of the video

So what if it's a 4 door? So it wouldn't fetch 80 grand at Barrett Jackson. That car deserves to live.

Very cool car.

if the HOLEY GOAT is back on the road, all of them can be saved.

I'd restore that guy just the way he is.... 4 door and all. Nothing wrong with a nice old sedan; nothing at all.

Id love a 4dr 2 dr 9 dr who cares beautiful solid car! Try and find something like this in a new england junk yard

Another great vid, Steve! You should consider buying a lapel mic so both of your hands will be free.

Damn that is a sweet car, and love the color too!

I want that pink car

Mary Kay should restore this pink one...lol

Me gustaría ver una reparación completa del dogge Chrysler 1957 completa

It a beauty

Concidering it is up to the rockers in dirt the floors are probably toast . lol. But never know looks like dry territory over all. Surprised the paint is as good as it is .

Weren’t these used as donors in the early Top Fuel days?

Please stop mentioning “custom couches”. Those things are a barbaric waste of a classic vehicle. Great videos!

how did i miss all these, not going back to Motor trend ?

This is one bad ass car.

daaaamn dude id pay my pennys to this car

This must have been quite the car in its day! Trailer hitch says possibly Airstream? I imagine that Hemi would make short work of hauling a 5-6k lbs travel trailer!

I hope this didn't get parted out 😰I'm not worried about the hemi, it'll always find a home, I'm just worried about the car 🙏

Trailer hitch. Wonder what they towed with that?

Nice. U owned a NY deluxe 331 hemi 1954

need that 392 for my 69 sport fury!!

Partihng this particular 300 was really, really toooo sad & bad! :O Look, especially because it´s the 4 Door Hardtop Body Style makes this one into the most beautyful bodystle, like u said; with all windows down the missing B-Pillars makes an sooo amazing look! Especially the proportions of the car are more nice as a 4-d Hardtop in my eses of an Auto Designer/Stylist & i wish that more people would safe these 4 Doors......

My dad had a 58 Imperial...push button trans

Hup cap in the trunk

Restore, definitely.

Looks like a perfume sales car

People in the future are going to think every car from 1955 to 1972 was a big block and four speed 2dr. US doesn't value 4drs, or anything other than the standard muscle car "recipe." Kinda a said. I sold a '72 New Yorker 4dr hardtop for twice the price I thought could make and it went to Poland. A friend of mine sold a '66 Coronet 4dr sedan and it went to Germany. Seems to be the only one that wants them and sees them as more than demo cars, or parts cars.

It reminds me of Christine's big sister.

I’d drive it.

they want a mint for that

Still has the old Hemi… I can’t tell if it’s a 354 or a 392

Love your show, you seem to focus on dodge, can we see some GM stuff too?

Sure has that "Christine" look about it.

"She can be fixed!"

How much

a four door hardtop are the best looking,,,id restore that car,,

What is that on your lower legs are those 4 snakes to prevent snake bites. That's my guess.

392 ci was a HEMI, wasn’t it??

I'd yank the hemi and put it in my 55 gasser.

1957 Chrysler New Yorker... Shovelnose

2:49

This isn't a former playmate car is it? I ask because of it's pinkness and it looks like it could have been pink from the factory....

What’s with the shin guards?

Boy, I hate that when you can’t see the interior dash of a very rare, factory air-conditioned car!

Why don't these yards get the cars out of the mud and dirt where they'll corrode beyond any chance of restoration?

Money car

A good organ doner car

I'd restore that car

So ok how much is something like this worth? Cause man with how much work you have to put in it should just be free lol

Looks like it's been sitting in the dirt for a long time, going to need some work, wouldn't want to pay a lot for it

Way too good to wreck save it

they dont make them like they used to...

The 1957 392 is probably the finest V8 production car engine ever produced. The rest of the car not so much.

All that tank is missing is a turret.
