19K-Mile Movie Car? 1976 Chrysler Newport

The seller lists the mileage of this beautiful 1976 Chrysler Newport as being 19,000 miles, but there are really only five photos to try to figure out if that’s 19,000 or 119,000. From the one interior photo (not bitter),… more»

Sport Series Survivor? 1962 Chrysler 300

The Chrysler 300 Letter Series is the forerunner of the popular muscle car movement of the 1960s. From 1955 to 1965, they were trimmed like New Yorkers but performed at a higher level. To boost overall sales, Chrysler cooked… more»

440-Powered 1972 Chrysler Newport Royal

Maybe somewhere in some long abandoned box of meeting minutes, there’s an explanation for Chrysler’s on-again/off-again relationship with the name “Royal.” It got a trial run in the early ’30s before taking hold as the lowest-priced Chrysler through the… more»

Nicest One Left? 1985 Chrysler LeBaron

The LeBaron moniker dates to the 1930s in the Chrysler/Imperial portfolio. After a run as a mid-size luxury car in the late 1970s/early 1980s, the LeBaron shifted to Chrysler’s smaller “K” platform in 1982, switching to front wheel drive… more»

Get ready for another mind-blowing low-mile survivor here on Barn Finds. While this 30,000-mile 1977 Chrysler Newport Two-Door Hardtop isn’t a dusty barn find shown parked under boxes and other junk, with chickens on the hood, it’s incredible. The… more»

BF Exclusive: 1962 Chrysler 300

Chrysler made some bold moves as an organization in 1962. Some didn’t work out that well in hindsight, such as shrinking the full-size Plymouths and Dodges (although the long-running B-Body did emerge from the downsizing as a popular intermediate);… more»

Low Miles: 1953 Chrysler Windsor Club Coupe

This Chrysler Windsor benefits from low miles and a club coupe body style, notching it above the lowly sedan in terms of desirability. It’s listed on facebook Marketplace for $13,900 – an aggressive price given comparable sales over the… more»

35K-Mile Loaded Survivor: 1977 Chrysler Newport

How can such a sedate, some might say boring four-door sedan have such appeal today? For me, the interior is the big part. Well, actually being almost 19 feet long is a big part, too, but once you see… more»

Owned by Hal Sperlich? 1983 Chrysler LeBaron Town & Country Convertible

Letter Series Wannabe? 1962 Chrysler 300
