I tend to imagine it must've been pretty exciting for someone who was looking for a car in that class in 1971. One could compare this above Chrysler to the Mercury Marquis & Buick Electra. All three offered big car luxury available in a 4-door & 2-door pillarliss hardtop versions. Actually one year earlier in 1970 The Buick Electra & Mercury Marquis offered a convertible . Chrysler did also have a full-size model convertible as well, but it was a Newport instead of the New Yorker. I wish I could of been of age and also had the money to buy one of these cars (brand-new) during this era
Amazing that a New Yorker appears here and on "Old Parked Cars" the same day.
This is a really nice car, but I liked it's less chrome-y siblings. Still, it satisfies my fuselage lust, and I love those fender skirts. The deluxe tail lights are pretty neat too. The pinstripe, however interrupts the fuselage effect.
I love the fuselage styling and have been wanting to buy one for years. This car is in excellent shape and is a real looker, although I prefer her two door brethren.
