Will it Run?!? 1968 Chrysler Newport! Abandoned for Decades!! Stuck 383 Big Block Mopar!

[@CharlieAmidon]

This show is lame! If you're a Mopar hater, why bother to get one started? I see why there are only 37K subscribers!

The Tapping on the valve and that's gonna be the end the day here at Mortske garage....Never gets old!!!!! Legendary Moment!!!

[@wazzup948]

Finally a MOPAR! I have owned over 80 cars...all different makes. Been a mechanic since the 60's. Have worked on them all, but have 9 MOPARS now and one Chevy (needed something to keep me busy). Have watched you for years...keep up the good vids! Go Duff dog!

[@moremortskerepair4354]

Right on!

[@smarternu]

My brother from another Mother. Yep, still stuck on Mopars, hard to shake what you grew up with. We lived in the golden days. 10 year old chargers for $200, and a quick trip to the junk yard for a C body big block and trans. I miss those days.

[@AaronBrevik]

Friday night with Mortske. So glad to see some second channel content!

[@jamesweidinger1117]

My parents had a '68 New Yorker with the 440. That car had ashtrays and cigarette lighters everywhere. What a beast. The car once lost all electrical power. Reaching up behind the dash my dad accidently shorted the ammeter terminals together with his wedding ring and heard the mechanical clock wind. That's how he found the problem. A bad ammeter will kill the whole car. I watched this with interest, brought back memories.

[@moremortskerepair4354]

[@jeffhutchins7048]

Ammeters are one STUPID thing vintage MOPARS had. TERRIBLE IDEA!!!

[@lonnygil]

[@ionracer24]

wow thats nuts!

[@noelquintanilla3357]

Seeing this car brings back so many forgotten childhood memories Mr. Mortski. My dad had both a 1968 Newport and a 1968 Imperial Crown in our drive way. Of course the imperial was my mom's though. They Both had my name etched in them. In different places. As an 8 yr old boy back then, I got away with a lot. My dad got so mad at me for scratching his paint. But my mom held me in her arms, told me she loved me, and even gave me a cookie for doing it to her car. She said she will always cherish her sons autograph. Lol. Now fast forward 50 years and wish they were still here for me to call up and ask them if Daddy is still mad at me and momma can I have another cookie.......... 🥺

The fact that it was on More Mortske I knew it wasn’t going to end well but still glad to have a second video. At least you got to see some pleasurizers

[@gregthe1355]

I had a 68 Plymouth and I loved the little blink light on fenders

[@renchjeep]

Man, that sucks. I'm not a Mopar guy, but that's a shame the ol 383 HP didn't make it. Damn mice! I hate those bastards. Nice try, Mortske. Can't win 'em all, man. Take care, and stay cool!

[@JeffKopis]

This looks a lot like my 68 Fury III. Exact same color, 4 doors. Originally a 383 car, but the 2nd owner built a 440 for it, .484" cam, 9.5 to 1 forged, big Holley, Hooker headers, Flowmasters. He also added a 3000 stall converter and 4.10s! It was a monster! I lived next door for 4 years. He blew the trans, parked it, and eventually gave it to me.

[@George-dx9nc]

I rented a Fury ll or lll like that.....at 70 or 80 mph if ya hit the gas it would raise the front end and fly like you wouldn't believe!!!

Many moons ago when I was around 14 my buddy and I swiped a pack of Newports from his Dad’s carton went out in the woods to smoke one , and yes got sick as hell. Many years later I don’t think I ever felt that level of unpleasant sickness again 😆

[@moremortskerepair4354]

Good times!

[@puddleduckist]

Wow, one cigarette made u sick?? Wow, interesting. I tried smoking a few times over the yrs, only thing it did to me was make me feel high...Marlboro reds...lol! Only time I felt green was when my friend n I smoked a cigar and probably inhaled which u don't really do with cigars. Either way the dumb things we do when we were young right!

I had a Plymouth Scamp with a locked up 318. It went to rest in the pasture for 10 years until I decided to put a battery in it. It fired up reluctantly so I raced it around the back 40 to finish it off. Good times.

[@gordonwelcher9598]

I am really happy to finally see a Mopar. It has been a while. One of the finest cars. If you run into problems you could try asking Mark Worman, he is the award winning world expert on Mopars. He is also an awesome dancer, he could teach you some radical moves that you could incorperate in your videos. I am sure your viewers will be crazy about it.

[@RichardMichel-m3g]

Mortske my man, glad to see you attempt another Mopar. Very sorry it didn't work out but what the heck, can't all be winners. I have a 66 Chrysler Newport 2dr HT with 78K original miles. My wife bought it for me for my 60th birthday. I don't get to drive it as much as I'd like. It hasn't had any updates (master cylinder/front discs etc.) so I don't like to drive in metro Denver traffic. I sure do enjoy your channel and videos. I think my dog Julie and Duff got a thing going but I don't check her mail. I'm having a sammich right now, a ZiegenBock out of Texas, (couldn't tell could you?) Sure do love your 64 Chev wagon too. Keep it up brother. Salud!

[@ghouliesgarage3922]

Definitely learned you saved MoJo a big hassle lol cool video definitely can't win them all . Thanks for the bonus video

[@kenb5279]

Wow. A "numbers matching" 1968 Newport. Amazing. That was my first car in Newport Custom trim. Awesome ride. That 383HP and the 2:76 gear ratio will surely bury that speedometer. Enjoy.

[@pagrainfarmer]

I had a 68 Chrysler Newport, except mine was a 2-door. It was originally a burgundy color. My dad gave it to me in the mid-80's and I painted it black and ran it to work for about 6 years. It had the 383 and actually got about 20 miles to a gallon. Eventually I gave it to a friend of mine. Wish I still had it. That green color of yours was a very common color that year. I believe they only made that exact body style for the '68 year only.

[@W1se0ldg33zer]

You haven't changed a water pump until you change one on an old Chrysler big block on a luxo-barge model. Frickin' things are huge. I changed one on a Sunday night all by myself when I was 19. The only other place in town that was open happened to have the exact one I needed in stock. How lucky! Spent most of the night into the wee hours, got it installed, put new belts and a hose on it - dumped anti-freeze in it aaaaaand the damn monster had a crack in the housing. I said a few bad words.

[@W1se0ldg33zer]

I think that one is the model that they just took a truck frame and sat the body on it? Don't quote me on that one - but the ones that they did that with were banned for demo derbies - unfair advantage.

Hey mort thanks for the great way to end the with a video on a Friday hope duffed helped u on this build this Time have a great weekend

I drove a 71' 2door Newport when my 71 Charger was down. Bought it for the donor 325hp 383, 727, and 8 3/4 but ended up loving that 19.5' long land yacht. It would lay a number 11 a mile long!

[@patrickanderson6226]

I had a stop me red 1966 4 door Newport. I loved that thing. Frist thing that 2 barrel has to go. New intake and 4 barrel. The car will float on the road at 100. Great aerodynamic front end. I had my radio in glivebox. Because even at 16 I refused to cut the dash and take out the wondebar am radio. 4 15s in the truck. And still have room for shovels and dead bodys... and leaded gas... and or additive.

[@fordfandiecast]

Too bad it didn't run. I used to have a 68 Chrysler Newport with same 383. I lowered it and put low profile tires and drove pics out of it. One day master cylinder went bad and ran into back of va. Spare tire on back of van went through door and barely a scuff on Newport! Drove it till motor gave out. She was big and purple. Loved it.

[@johnhpalmer6098]

Had to watch this on a Tuesday morning as I had the base pillared sedan in blue. It was the base 383, 2 Barrel carb. It did not have factory air, but did have a non working AirTemp under dash unit however. It was my first car in HS in the early 80's. Lots of great memories of it. Still dream of it every so often over the past 40+ years. Scrapped it in the summer of '83. The body was much better than yours however as the back was all straight and nice. No, it was all weathered and the front end sagged some, the muffler was almost a total delete, however some bailing wire and tin coffee cans kind sorta helped the poor muffler along. It did smoke a little, but ran. Belong to an elderly maternal grandmother of good friends when she decided to stop driving at the time. This was a nice look at what was a nice car at one time, but sadly, too far gone, thanks to the mouse houses inside the motor.

[@terryerickson4786]

I bought a 1968 Plymouth Fury lll with a slant six in it. It was a 2-door hardtop. Same color as yours but it had a (factory painted) black hardtop. Very cool old car. Not a dent or rust spot on it also.

[@smilinacha]

I remember when I was a kid, we’re talking 1971-72-ish, my dad came home one day in a Plymouth Sports Fury. It had them driver-facing blinker indicators at the front of each fender and at that time I thought that was the coolest thing in the world😆.

Actually these Chryslers are fun vehicles, but this one is just shot from all the mouse house inside the engine. Like that was a real surprise waiting to happen. Even as a parts car it could save something that is more worth saving. Mopar Madman was a real helper, love his jokes.🤣

That was too bad , It started out looking bad and then got a lot worse to the point where you throw in the towel and whatever you have handy , button it up and park it where the weeds grow longest . It was a learning experience for us all , and maybe a small loss for FiFel who was dead and quite stiff . Till the next Mortske Saturday or Monday , take care , beware , God Bless you and Duff Dog the trusty garage helper , Stuart in Canada .. PS your MoPar helper was a real hoot .

Looking at the core support from the engine bay side,, that thing is a work of art. They went to a lot of effort mounting the radiator so it was basically a sealed unit.

Big picture, I would call this a win. Yeah, the car not so much, but the video itself was a win. MM was a fit for at least occasional tag team. I get that he has a job, but he lifted the product. Good personality, lifts the low spots, and brings some knowledge. Think about it. MM is an asset.
