Projects 59 chrysler newyorker custom build

Best boobs I mean headliner ever!

 

been working on my 52 more than the 59 lately ...heres some pics of it ....lowered the back 3inch and soon to be subframed and a 350 power plant...it was for sale but no one made a good offer so why not

 

ok for the 59....got the rear pass door in first coat of primer and same for the trunk lid and some of the front fender ....its been cold and i only have a little heater so im goona try to bust this side out before its to cold out ...the front door just needs blocked and its ready for primer ...rocker is all welded up and now i have a little patch for tomorrow and then on to the big part of the back rocker thats all rotted and mangled ...this will be the challenge but once i get it done every thing will be easy !i just cant wait to see the whole car in primer or atleast this side !!!

 

so i seen this car for sale ...it has barris emblems on it what do u guys think ?

 

and a couple more random pics of me and my rat project and the 52

 

wow , face tattoos your even more rockabilly then the average hip cat ...

if your doing all that the bodywork and making it smooth put real paint on it, flat black was old like 5 years ago.

 

Like the VO hood ornament to match your band, sounds like some heavy metal to me. Hey, what the heck you have some heavy metal there, I hope the side trim stays on, it is really a knock out and then it won't look, slab aided. New cars with hardly any trim are awful, don't go there. These are rare and cool models of the MoPar, glad to see you working with it. In my opinion again, if you are going black, hot rod black with a little satin finish would look nice, flat black is not only a little dated but a rough one to take care of. The satin finish cleans up nicer and is not so sensative to finger prints etc. Neat project man, will be a real fun cruzer! ~sololobo~

 

Another bellybutton in a Dodge....

 

thats alot of nasty metal brother good work on saving her im over in elyria not far off glad too see another younger guy digging some vintage iron

 

59 is looking great so far. And black will always be cool.

 

Thanks guys and it's gonna be black with flat clear it some kind of red flake or gold....and side trim will be staying but not the bottom rocker trim just the arrow

 

Well my friend has a junk yard and has a 75 ny and if I can use them I'm gonna get the spindles and mc out of it .....I'm holding it will bolt up

 

I used 77 NYer spindles on my '60 Plym, worked great. You'll have to narrow the tie rods, rod ends & the adj sleeve. grind down the knoby turn stops. On my plym the distance between the A Arm mounts was apx 7" & apx 6" on the NYer, but it did fine.

 

Thanks I'm thinking it will work and I seen on the internet a kit for a 59 ny for 500ish but idk if it will work seems shad

 

Who needs a kit? Just go to your parts store & buy new everything.

 

so its been a while ...we moved so i no longer have a garage so its a pain to do work ... i currently am driving this car every day im going to post some pics of progress ...i had to spray bomb the car but the body work is not done ....i picked up some replacement rear quarter panles for free... a friend had them sitting around in a barn so that saved my ass ....i fit in some 59 cadillac tailights insted of new lenses way cheaper funner and better looking ...got some dummy lights and traded my truck cab for lake pipes and bought a 54 2door hard top belair !!! i got a new tattoo shop so im all around busy and trying to spend money wisely

 

i can not get pics to upload i will try again tomorrow

 

Its been a while but I got a lot done! Drove the car all summer and started the rebuild this winter I got 75 newyorker spindles that bolt on for disc brakes!!!! And a chevy master cylinder booster combo that bolted in with very little work ...I'm pulling the 413 to get heads done and mild motor work ...got a pair of headman headers that fit perfect and clear everything and started to shave and do a miled wire tuck also plan to switch to a one wire alternator

Sick ride man...very nice Mopar!

 

I think I liked it in the stock form better, but last time I checked I didn't put a dime in it. Keep up the progress.

 

Started to mold the fender to the cal and closed up the holes for the old mirror ..and here is a pic of the other side I completed a while ago.... I am getting some wire and a take so I can switch away from this flux core crap I have been trying to work with

Fire wall is coming along I'm just having a hard time with the flux core welder but I got a little more to clean up and then get my friend over to help me hammer and dully it .. the steering box will be coming out tonight and shiped to steer and geer in Columbus and I will be dropping the 413 off to the machine shop for a over haul ... next on list clean up spindles and paint them buy new rotors and calipers then find some one who can sand blast my replacement rear quarters or look into some chemical rust removal ...any tips?
