Seeing these classic land yachts makes me want to go for a road trip. No screens, no stupid distracting gizmo's. Just plenty of room for a few friends and luggage. I miss the 70's...
You’re so right - the best thing about taking one of my classics out for a drive is the complete lack of any infotainment bull$hit! Just me, the steering wheel, and the beautiful sound of American iron rumbling under the hood…..!!!!!
My Father had a 1971 Chrysler Imperial LeBaron coupe that had the 440 V8 and a 727 TorqueFlite transmission. I drove it to high school when I was 17 years old. That engine sound was music to my ears!
Great first car! My first car (back in 1975 at age 16) was a 4-year-old, pristine, B5 (medium) Blue, with white vinyl top, blue interior, ‘71 Plymouth Barracuda. I traded it a year later (1976) for a very nice 2-year-old, Yellow, with black vinyl top, black side stripes, black interior, ‘74 Plymouth ‘Cuda (‘74 was the FINAL EDITION Barracuda/‘Cuda - the last year Plymouth made ‘em). Wishin’ I had both of those beauties back.
The coolest aircraft carrier I've ever seen! Seriously cool car. I had a similar 71 Newport Custom with the 383 when I was 18. Drove it like I was Bo Duke on many dirt roads in Indiana. Love the big Chryslers.
I had a 1970 Newport that was heavily modified. It had a 300 grill, and somehow it had absolutely no chrome on it. The rear end bumper was blacked out. The paint was old school black lacquer. Set up was a 383 magnum with the 727 torque flight, manifolds had been changed out for headers. There was a Holley 750 4 barrel on it. Gas was about a dollar a gallon at the time. That car got me into so much trouble. I would get pulled over all the time. However, the cops would invariably ask me the year and what was under the hood. I remember one guy giving me a warning and then asking with a straight face if I wouldn't mind lighting it up before he left. I had a set of 50 series slicks on the rear at the time so I had to oblige. Man I miss that car.
I have always loved the super clean lines on these late 60's early 70's era Chryslers. This particular car has been beautifully cleaned up and detailed. Nice work! :)
Beautiful classic car. I had a 1970 Chrysler One of the most comfortable cars I ever owned. Only thing is, with that type of air cleaner you are drawing hot air from with the engine compartment. Air drawn from the outside is cooler and much more efficient that hot air from the engine compartment.
I had a brown 1971 300 4-door 440 TNT 375 HP. My first car, given to me by my uncle Freddie. He had bought a new Cordoba and the 300 needed a new master cylinder. This was 1982. What I would give to have that car now.
thanks for the video . my dad bought one off the line in 70 , with a 400 , I was 5 and remember every time that 4 barrel screamed for more fuel and that 'new car scent'
If only I was born a decade earlier... I wish I could own one of these beauties, drive it at sunset on a winding road, or at night on a lit up stretch. Man that would be sick...
Great classic from 70s, Worked in Corvette shop from 1986 till 1989 and white 1970 Chrysler 300 was given to the shop to cover an debt the owner of 300 incurred. Clean ride no visible rust.
My younger brother has a 66 chrysler 300. A ws6 trans am couldn't catch it.. the young man driving it was a little pist cuz a huge boat spanked his ass..
I would take this hands down over any pos camaro, Honda, crotch rocket, or any other status quo "cool car" that machine is like an assassins car of choice. Just sinister looking with the hidden headlights.
В СССР время 1983/87прочитал Шевроле??? Не помню какой¿¿¿ Близкий к нашему москвичу !!!! Скажите пожалуйста когда масквыш выпускал машины с двигателем объемом до 8 литров??¿? 2!!! Литра князь долго рукий, или Калита!! А тогда только 1500 объем двигателя!!!
Silly danish people, put a plate on it and drive it daily! Were they all green? Might look cool, but crank up those torsion bars. Best thing about the 383 is no overheat. Rev it up man, keep those spark plugs clean.
