1948 Chrysler New Yorker Description

This is truly a great find! After World War II American auto makers started adding chrome back to their vehicles and this car is loaded with chrome. It's "Fluid Drive Transmission" is the pre-curser to the automatic transmission. It takes a little getting used to but works just fine. This is a 6 Volt system that has electronic ignition and a Sisson Automatic Choke that starts with ease.

The interior is Plaid like the original and is in really great shape. The top is like new though I rarely put it up as this car was meant to be driven with the top down. It looks so regal going down the road with the only thing missing is FDR sitting in the rear seat.
