  • Brian!! Find someone to buy this MA 71 Newyorker ASAP!!

    When the heck do you buy a 440 ANYTHING this cheap, let alone this clean!!



    1971 New Yorker, 440 / 727 Auto / 2.76 open 8.75
    4 Doors - Power steering, power front disc brakes, manual locks & windows, power front bench seat
    Clear MA title

    Edit - 4/12 Price drop - $2300




    Good:
    Low rust - garaged West Virginia car
    Unmolested - very original
    95% of the way to being a solid driver - I did the shocks, muffler, power steering pump, elec fuel pump, heads, lifters, pushrods, transmission, master cylinder, elec ignition, tires, battery, and more that I'm forgetting
    Original A/C car - it's all there but doesn't work

    Bad:
    Rad & heater core leak under pressure
    Original Carb sucks - I rebuilt it but it's never run as strong as it could, should be replaced.
    Driver side rear tire leaks - I think it's the rim

    I daily drove this beast for 6 months then parked it in the garage when I bought a truck. It's been basically sitting since then as priorities changed. I would love to keep it but I just don't have the space, time, and $$ to make it mint. It really needs a rad, carb, and a nice dual exhaust setup to be a sweet summer time cruiser on the cheap (maybe a cam to wake it up a bit?)

    It runs and drives but bring a trailer as the rad pees when it's up to temp.

    I don't think there's a cleaner '71 440 anything to be found for this short $$

    Located in Marlboro MA
    PM me here on the board or
    email me at mangsen "at" gmail "dot" com

    The original 727 I pulled out comes with it - forward gears are good but reverse slips
    Original heads come with it too

    More pics from a few years ago - nothing's changed except some more dust

    wow.

    a true guru will bring a torch and solder.. those "rads" are meant for repairs in realtime.
    brass/copper...and coolant was frightening once upon a time. leaks were not welcome at all ever.

    I like the old standard much better. nice car.

    fixing the rad may gain a function in the carb.. they were very smart about all that stuff.

      Neat car, for sure. I'll send this to my father in law. Apologies for lack of enthusiasm, just a tough night.
      That which you manifest is before you.

          Understood. I was living under a rock and didn't realize all of the suffering in your area...

                    Whomever buys it will need to bring a harbor pilot to undock it from the garage.

                            I bet that thing is as long as my crew cab 8ft box pick up - good Lord - that's wretched excess in sheet metal right there.
                            What's the curb weight on that bad boy - 6000lb?
                            There's always something new to learn.

                              I want to say it is as long as a 91 Suburban. A neighbor had one and we measured my truck and his car...i dont remeber the exact numbers bu I do remeber laughing our asses off about the size of the damned thing
