This sure looks like such a substantial car.

Great pics! Nothing is more massive & powerful than the New Yorkers in that class...they were a 300 in sheep's luxury clothing. My Dad had a 72 NY Brougham 2 dr triple-white, loaded demo car w/every option (hence demo) and I broke the left rear shock absorber in high school street-racing a 69 Charger....so much torque from that 440...even then!

I had a 1972 New Yorker. It had the 440 and it would bury its speedo without even trying, would go 95 before it went into top gear, today's cars could fit in the trunk. The horn was a band switch around the iside of the steering wheel. It dry rotted and I had to replace it with a button on the lower dash. I had to sell it in the early 80s when I changed jobs and couldn't afford the 12mpg highway commute. Had a 1968 Satellite and a 1968 Fury III before that, they only had 318 engines but ran very well.

@@maxwattage6631 My New Yorker was Tan. The FuryIII Ripe Olive. The Satellite, Copper. We had a 66 Fury I that was Aqua, but was totaled in a residential neighborhood 4 way stop crash of all things. My sister nearly lost her face in that one, but healed up pretty.

Thumbs Up liked for you.

[@Doobie1975]

nice car, I consider 1972 to be the last great year of the nice looking Chrysler's before quality started to decline, I really liked the front end design's of these cars.

These are great, old MOPARS and it always amazes me just how massive American cars got by the early 1970s. Only complaint I have onm these is the quarter-pannel is a little plin for how huge it is.

[@B3burner]

Amazing how few of these are left. Even Ford/Lincoln/Mercury & GM of this era are still more plentiful 45~50 years later, than these are.

[@Kenny-re8ko]

Not where I'm from (eastern ON) the road salt took out the early 70's fords in 4-5 years, they had holes you could throw a cat through, and the spare tire had to be moved to the back seat. (reference class action lawsuit against ford using substandard steel) Anything GM was not much better. The C body mopars held together better than anything else for some reason. Not the most scientific approach, but you can check ebay and there are more New Yorkers with the waterfall grilles for sale than any of the other makes from this era, despite gm and ford higher production numbers. And a lot of the C bodies were cannibalized for their 440's, or destroyed in demo derby's (a few years of these cars were not allowed in derbies because they pounded the hell out of everything else).

[@frankieelder3210]

B3_Burner that is because Ford in GMC sold 5 to 6 times as many cars as Chrysler so there was never a proportionate amount.

[@san379]

i live a big car..and mopar was the bigest and the 2003 dodge ran crew cab long box 2 wheel drive with a leer XQ truck cap..smothe and long ..22 feet long to be exact..i use it everyday

[@TheLizardKing1967]

The 1975 model is so much better looking. It's the talk of the town.

[@san379]

@Srd1126 i wish they used tufted pillow top velvet seats like in the 80's fifth avenues

[@B3burner]

And all these years... I thought a Newport was just a cigarette!!! 🤣🤣
