This is a comprehensive frame-off-restored, HEMI-powered 1951
Chrysler New Yorker convertible. This New Yorker is finished in
Juniper Green Metallic and features Chrysler's new postwar body
with a beige power convertible soft-top featuring a glass back
window. It rides on 15-inch wire wheels with faux knock-off covers,
wrapped in whitewall tires. The 1951 model year would also serve as
the last year for the long-wheelbase variants. The interior
features beige leather seating with cloth inserts, matching door
panels, carpeted floors and jewelry-like chrome and gold
instrumentation. The year 1951 was the first for the highly
efficient Firepower 331ci HEMI V8 engine rated for 180hp, which is
20hp more than the Cadillac 331ci V8 of the same period. The
original HEMI V8 is paired with its optioned Fluid Torque Drive
semi-automatic transmission. Additional features include the Mopar
All Weather Comfort System heater, convertible top tonneau cover,
power steering, power brakes, spare tire and jack.
