Whoa Nelley, part five and this video series is still alive. Lee's Texaco is now Valdez Muffler at that same address. Looks like the pumps were removed, but you can still see was a gas station at one time. Louthan-Dowell was located at 1702 Texas Ave in Lubbock and this is now Mercedes of Lubbock. 1969 Chrysler Imperial, VIN gets us the win: Y for Chrysler Imperial, M for Medium price class, 41 for four door sedan, K for 440 V8 with four barrel, 9 for 1969 model year, C for Jefferson Ave, Detroit, MI assembly and the rest is the production sequence. Possible code "D" Moonstone Blue exterior paint. 1967 Chrysler wagon, VIN gets us the win: C for Chrysler, E for Economy price class, 46 for nine passenger wagon, H for 383 V8, high performance, 7 for 1967 model year, 6 for Newark, DE assembly and the rest is the production sequence. The Newark, DE plant closed in 2008 and was opened up in 1938 as a parts plant. Possible code "X" Sandalwood exterior paint. 1974 Chrysler Newport, we got the VIN, we win: C for Chrysler, L for low price class, 41 for four door sedan, N for 400 V8 with four barrel, 4 for 1974 model year, C for Jefferson Ave, Detroit, MI assembly and the rest is the production sequence. Possible code L4 Sahara Beige exterior paint. 1974 Plymouth Fury wagon, with the VIN getting the win: P for Plymouth Fury, P for Premium price class, 46 for nine passenger wagon, M for 400 V8 with two barrel, 4 for 1974 model year, D for Belvidere, IL assembly and the rest is the production sequence. There's a Sheridan Motors in Wyoming, not sure if it's the same as this dealer on the back here. Possible code B5 Lucerne Blue exterior paint. 1965 Chrysler 300, VIN again gets us the win: Y for Chrysler, 2 for 300, 5 for 1965 model year, 3 for Jefferson Ave, Detroit, MI assembly and the rest is the production sequence. Should be code "W" Persian White exterior paint. 1963 Chrysler 300, with the VIN again getting us the win: 8 for Chrysler 2 for 300, 3 for 1963 model year, 3 for Jefferson Ave, Detroit, MI assembly and the rest is the production sequence. Should be code "T" Claret Red exterior paint. The cow is telling you to "moooooooove" out and he's pissed that you might have sat on what was once his relative (a leather seat cover). 1965 Chrysler New Yorker wagon with the VIN for the win: 8 for Chrysler, 7 for New Yorker wagon, 5 for 1965 model year, 3 for Jefferson Ave, Detroit, MI assembly and the rest is the production sequence. Possible code "C" Ice Blue exterior paint. Denio Chrysler was around until about 1981. Cleveland Motors was located at 2205 Austin in San Angelo and there's a pool place there now. 1959 Chrysler Imperial with the VIN for the win: M for 1959 model year, 6 for Imperial, 5 for Custom Crown, 7 for Warren Ave, Dearborn MI assembly and the rest is the production sequence. Possible code "T" Deep Ruby exterior paint. Whoa Nelley, yes, a real 1970 GTO. We got the VIN, we win: 2 for Pontiac, 42 for GTO, 37 for two door hardtop, 0 for 1970 model year, R for Arlington, TX assembly and the rest is the production sequence. Should be code "60" Orbit Orange (although I see some blue paint under it, so we'd need to see the tag to be sure what it was originally) and it may be a GTO Judge, but it is definitely a real GTO. No, that looks to be a 1941 (I believe) Plymouth, possible a Deluxe. We had one in my family from 1978-1988 as a project car and my uncle wound up with it after my dad passed away. It was hauled from NY to TX by two cattle ranchers. It was running and driving when we gave it t my uncle and he fixed it up some more and had it painted a different color. We used it in 1985 to bring my grandparents to the church for their 50th wedding anniversary. They passed away in 2002 (my grandmother) at 87 and 2012 (my grandfather) at 101.5 years old. I own part of their property now and their '89 Cavalier. Possible code 201 Aviator Blue exterior paint. Pink one at 31:00 or so in is a 1957 New Yorker with the VIN for the win: C for Chrysler, 57 for 1957 model year, and the rest is the production sequence. Looks like code "M" Shell Pink exterior paint. Goffe Motor Company is long gone. Bryant Auto Sales is possibly Bi-Rite Auto Sales at 3900 W Wall St, Midland, TX 79703. Rieger is out of business and has been gone since around 1978. Whoa Nelley, part 5 and this series is no jive. Mopar or no car. Pentastar and whoa Nelley there's a lot of cars. Jefferson, Belvidere and Newark made many of these, hopefully they get saved, pretty please? Get the VIN and we win. Get the tag and we can brag. Without that, the Google Man is very sad. It's early in the day and my focus is going away. I'll be heading to the Sunshine State, ain't that just great? A citrus orange can get get squished, but if these classics go that way, we'll all be very pissed.
The Capri is an English Ford. Chrysler corp made nice station wagons in the 60's. They would take Chrysler flathead straight eights and put them in boats. A lot of torque. The 63 and 64 Chrysler products were complete flops due to odd styling and downsizing. Today they are more appreciated.
You have made some really Excellent films of the places you get out to, but may I be so bold as to congratulate you with this (5-part?) series.. This is a Real ART GALLERY/Field of DREAMS. I was quietly, "WOW-ing to myself" -SO many of my absolute fave cars. I hope Someone can buy them for a fair price. I just cannot bare to think of the alternative. Without a doubt, your BEST footage yet Benny. IF you made another 5 films I'd watch them all !! -Yes I WOULD. Respect and warmest wishes from Dorset. UK. = ) Bloody AWESOME Mate. You did a fantastic job. Stellar.
I remember those Dodge Ram Chargers, I liked those with the mag wheels as I think they were called. I've seen then when new with the Ram hood ornament.
From 1974-80 the whole top of a Ramcharger would come off. Also, the first generation Dodge Ramcharger had a twin. It was the Plymouth Trailduster. The ones that can go topless are the ones I would be interested in.
I had bought a Chrysler Newport like this one when I lived in Clearwater, Florida which bought it from someone for $50.00 but couldn't keep it running which I had tried, was great big car which loved driving it. If I was able to keep the car running I'd probably still have it, cars from the 70's looked great.
That's an incredible amount of old MOPAR iron... Not too much that'd be easily restorable, but LOADS of good parts for restorations. I'd be interested in knowing what they each sold for... It seems like what we'd have considered absolute junk back in the 1980s is now coveted as a good start today. Cheers!
10:20 is an early '60's Ford Capri,by Ford of England. Did not know these were sold in this country,but it's a LHD car. They did sell them in Switzerland, Italy & the 'Low Countries' (Benelux region) as well as Scandinavia. Do not recall these in Germany,but still maybe a Private Import by a GI???
HI BENNY --THANKS FOR THE VIDEOS I LOVE THOSE SWEPT WINGS ON THOSE DODGE CARS AND OTHERS,.. YOU DONT SEE THOSE SUICIDE KNOBS OFTEN I HAD ONE ONE TIME I SEE THEM AT THE CAR SHOWS SOME TIMES,,,.. THEY CALL THEM SUICIDE KNOBS BECAUSE WHEN PEOPLE USE THEM THEY DONT HAVE BOTH HANDS ON THE WHEEL AND DONT HAVE MUCH CONTROL ,.. PEACE!!
I had one of those Ramchargers for a while. '89. 360. Whopping 10 MPG. lol. They made the two-door wagon through 61 but they got increasingly rare each year. That 59 is neat. The dash in that Pioneer was used in 60-64 full size Dodge and 60-61 DeSoto. I have one out of a '63 880 in pretty nice shape. Anybody need one? 62-64 they changed the gauges to black face. 10:25 is a Simca isn't it? 13:30 a '58 DeSoto on the short wheelbase frame, shared with Dodge, so it has Dodge fenders with the chrome over the headlights. Looks like a nice car. 15:13 is a 37 Plymouth 58 New Yorker at 18:00 or so is a Hemi car 25:15 is a '62. In 62 they had a 300 series and a 300 letter car. Maybe it's the letter car since motor gone and console in it. The bubble dash was used 60-62. Easy flip and the whole dash unbolts. Boy they killed that GTO. 30:50 a 41 Plymouth Pink '57 Chrysler New Yorker The white Dodge looks like it was rolled, the way the fender and roof are mashed
@@googleusergp if you have a clean LeMans and enough parts you can match it up as a clone and the only tell would be the hidden VIN stamps. Bennie couldn't get the trim tag, that would probably tell you if there's enough options to make the car worth enough to clone. Don't get me wrong, I certainly don't advocate doing it, but it wouldn't surprise me to see it happen either.
@@CR7659 Huh? Whatcha talkin' about Willis? The trim tag on a 1970 will typically give you the year, the model, the assembly plant, the body sequence number, the interior trim, paint code, the build range code, seat type code (on some), vinyl top code or convertible top code (as applicable) and that's about it. Not many options if any shown there. Only a few vehicles have options that are worth noting on those tags. The cowl tag would also show that it's a real GTO. In the Pontiac world, "without the PHS, you got a mess". It's like having pedigree papers for a dog. I have the PHS for both of my Pontiacs and one of them my parents bought brand new. Without it, you have nothing.
😄 I'm not Chevy loyal. I have Buick, olds, Pontiac, Lincoln, and I may have just bought a Ford and a Mopar. I was out there last Wednesday for about 4 hrs and I left with about 3 hrs worth of video. Figured id break in down into smaller sections instead of dumping a 3hr long video 😄
There hasn't been a Chrysler in my family since 1988 and I still enjoyed this video series, even though I'm going botz with all the breakdowns of the VINs and tags. LOL.
@@ClassicRideSociety Steve Magnate featured this auction in September with Amy (formerly from Barrett Jackson) back in September. I could tell right away it was the same auction.
