Description
Lot #14 - This mostly original 1968 Chrysler Newport has less than 38,000 original miles (mileage not indicated on the title). It is powered by its original 383ci big-block engine with a rebuilt 2-barrel carburetor, mated to a 3-speed automatic transmission, which was removed from the car, inspected, opened up and fitted with new gaskets before being reinstalled. After an extended time in storage this Newport was professionally outfitted with a new gas tank, new fuel lines, pump and filter, and new tires, wheels, brakes, radiator, exhaust and front wheel bearings. The original interior features the original AM radio, instrumentation, gauges and dash speaker, as well as the original floor mats and headliner. The exterior is all-original as well, including the paint, chrome and glass. The previous owner lowered the stance of the car but maintained the original equipment to restore the stance. The original wheels and period-correct tires are also included.
