This is one special Chrysler New Yorker. It was the Salon model. It came with every conceivable option you could get as standard equipment. 1964 was the first year for the tilt wheel in Chrysler. Not positive, but 1963/64 AM/FM radio became an option in Chryslers. Full leather including door panels. He called the rear arm restna console. That was reserved for higher end cars back then. This Chrysler has real wood on the dash and door panels. I believe it was priced at about $5800.00 which was higher then the entry level Imperial. These cars handled very well for their size. Torsion Air Ride. My parents had a 1962 Chrysler Newport two door hardtop. That was a phenomenal car. It had some get up and go even with the base 361 V-8.

@MrTommyboy68 6 месяцев назад

AM/FM was a 1963 mid year availability option PLUS this one has the "reverberator" for the rear seat speakers (that little silver box mounted on the rear seat cross brace) Chrysler offered stereo in mid 1967 on and the stereo multiplex box was mounted in the same location behind the rear seat. Also, fun fact, Chrysler Corp bought the tilt columns from GM for years since they didn't have the money to design one and it was cheaper to purchase from GM. Starting in 1966 they were the tilt/tele wheels.

@alanblanes2876 Месяц назад

That is a very sophisticated example of 1960s classiness.

I've always wanted to see a review of these. Big Chrysler's always were kind of fascinating to me because they were so rare. I came of car spotting age in the late 80s, and there was still plenty of big yankee iron around, mostly it was Chevy's and Ford's.

Zach, I was very pleased to hear your praise for the great 1964 Chrysler. One of my favorite automobiles. My family owned a 1964 Chrysler NY from 1964 to 1975. It has a blue silk embroidered interior, 413 cu in 375 hp engine. I drove it for thousands of miles. Usually 80 to 90 mph, but on a few long trips averaged 100 to 115 mph, which means quite some miles at 120 to 130 mph. No problems. I wanted to buy the NY from my father but never got the opportunity. He traded it for a 1972 Chrysler NY which I own. Thank you for this fabulous and very well done video. Let's Roll! Wolf

@vr4787 Год назад

The 5.9 magnum in your Ram was part of the last run of LA derived engine blocks Chrysler had used for decades until 2001. So the 5.9 magnum (formerly the 360) and 440 are close relatives.

@bwofficial1776 Год назад

Everyone remembers Impalas and Galaxies and Falcons but no one saved these because they were interestingly styled in a not so great way. Pushbutton shifters are back in style again. I like that door latch but I'm sure it was easy to accidentally open. That thunk when you closed the door sounds so solid. I wish center fuel fillers would return so there's no remembering which side of the tank to pull up on. There are two kinds of countries in the world: those whose citizens have walked on the moon and those who haven't.

@novaseline4u Год назад

I had to look that thing up, because I had thought the interior was out of something else. Nope. It's original to that car, headrests and all. With the Salon model, everything that car had here was standard equipment. The Salon came only one way -- fully loaded. Only the full leather was optional.

@MrTommyboy68 6 месяцев назад

It is a shame your friend removed all the A/C hoses and compressor. Looking in the trunk, I really think this car had the rear blower type defroster, NOT rear A/C. If you get the chance to do another video, if you could remove the cover on the rear package shelf, if there is one long, skinny vent that is the rear defroster, if there are 2 vents like the front, that would be rear A/C, And that little silver box attached to the rear seat brace is the reverb unit (in the days before stereo, which was first offered mid year 1967) Over the years I have owned 4 Imperials with dual A/C, and 6 Chrysler and Dodge wagons with dual A/C. Cruising the freeways in Phoenix when it was 115 degrees and both front and rear units cranking, you could hang meat in there. Those were the good old days.

I never liked Chrysler's design until recently. This era and the Virgil Exner era were very exciting.

@UberLummox Год назад

'63 & '64s I still don't like so much. Though I'm BIG into Exner's '62 B body Dodge & Plym. among his others. '63/4 looks a little lighter than the '65s. Might just be the looks.

@rickloera9468 Год назад

@@UberLummoxThat's because Elwood Engel from Ford put a lot of influence from Ford into the 63/64 Chrysler and 64/66 Imperial after firing Virgil Exner

@OsbornTramain Год назад

The Floaty and Boaty comment is kind of relative. If you compared a 64 Chrysler to a Buick/Oldsmobile/Mercury, the Chrysler would have been hands down the performance car. The Chrysler could out handle anything with it's torsion bar ride and smooth Torqueflight transmission and unitbody design. GM and Ford didn't have that and their Cars wouldn't handle as well.........If you drove a 1964 Mercedes 220SE coupe, it would have been a large and floaty and boaty ride versus cars of today. It's just how cars were and what people liked.

Not slow with a 413. Drove my '64 New Yorker from Weed CA. to NYC in 37 hours solo in 1975.

@stanmarcusgtv 8 месяцев назад

and through 1965 you could push start the Chryslers w/ the Torqueflite - it was in the owners manual and I did it w/ the 1965 New Yorker - it had another pump in the rear which was eliminated in 1966

@johnnyedify 2 месяца назад

This was the last of the Virgil Exner design influence. However Elwood Engel added some of his touches to it before completely re designing the 1965 models.

@demetridar506 Месяц назад

Part of the reason you think this car is a bit slow is that the old 3sp shifts too early. You have to hold the gear manually for proper performance, and without a tach that is hard to do. If the engine is set up for descent upper end power via a good cam upgrade, this car should do very well through the gears, but given that it has only 3 gears and a tall differential, it is the high speed range that the car excels. You are probably too scared to drive it in that range.

@danielboone72 Год назад

The 440 was offered in 1966. 1965 was the last year for the 413. That motor you have in it now, may be from the mid-70's. That's probably why it's not real fast.

@jamesmancuso3666 Год назад

Well, actually, Chrysler never had a jet car. Jets are propelled by exhaust gas. Chrysler had a turbine engine that used a shaft from the turbine to propell the car. I do love the car. The roof line with the separate c pillar loop and no b pillars look great. Also any vehicle with vent windows is awesome.

@doug6191 8 месяцев назад

5:19 - "they look kind of identical to the shifter..." Decades later, idiots at Chrysler repeated this in the 200, which had a transmission dial located very close to HVAC dials, so it was easy to grab the wrong knob when trying to adjust HVAC settings.

@ForeverDownByLaw Год назад

These old Chryslers are great, but I'm not sure they were the equal of Cadillacs from the era. Have you tested a mid 60's Caddy?

@UberLummox Год назад

An Imperial next to a Cadillac??? Believe me, the Imperial holds up VERRRRY well next to the Cad. It actually exceeds it in handling & toughness. And I've owned lotsa both from this era. The New Yorker is more in Buick Electra territory. And again, does just fine and then some. Had lotsa '60s Buicks as well, and LOVE them. '60s cars are pretty much ALL amazing. "Down By Law". GREAT movie!

@ForeverDownByLaw Год назад

@@UberLummox What, you think I haven't ridden in a Cadillac before? :) I get your re: the Imperial being the dynamic equal of a Caddy of the era, but more of the Cadillacs have survived, which I think is a testament to their quality. Cadillacs, like Imperials of the early 60's were largely hand built cars. I had a '67 Coupe Deville that I adored.

@UberLummox Год назад

@@ForeverDownByLaw aha right on! Well Cadillac built FAR more cars than Imperial. And oldies from the era are even still more popular than Imps as well. PLUS, many Imps are STILL being used up in demo derbies because they are still unequalled in that department!

Forever comparison's of the old with the new, so darned unfair and realistically a poor Reviewer. Obviously you can't compare, much if anything, that were decades apart, not a level playing field.

These have a great option of a separate ac unit for the back seat with a separate evaporator. I am guessing these were thirsty as our 1967 Chrysler was impossible to operate after the 1973 oil crisis. Alll Chryslers between 1956 and 1964 had the same transmission controls. Too bad it looks like somebody covered up the rear ac vents. The sun probably ruined the area under the rear windshield.

@ayryz1 10 месяцев назад

Chrysler originally put air conditioning units in trunk but switched to underhood in 1957 to better integrate fresh air and heat into system. Only Imperial offered dual front and rear Air conditioning in its cars, The exception being full size Chrysler, De Soto, Dodge, and Plymouth wagons. Those had the option of a rear unit hanging from the roof in between the 2nd and 3rd row seats.
