This particular classic remained with its original owner in California since 1996 and was extremely loved. Previously the car resided in the dry state of Arizona. It is said to be an original 56,000 mile wagon as the owner seldom drove it after over 20 years of regular driving. It is being sold on an exempt title due to age. We even have the original owners handbook! This is a true California New Yorker! Finished in the original two tone Caravan Beige and Cocoa Brown Metallic, this wagon benefitted from a new paint job in the recent past and it was just what it needed. The paint is in great shape, as well as the body, showing only minor imperfections. While receiving a new paint job, the wagon also got new weather-stripping. There is no shortage of chrome on this classic and the chrome is in good shape, showing only minor imperfections and in original condition. Overall, this New Yorker Town & Country shows very well. Inside, you will find the seats are wrapped in a textured brown vinyl that looks great and appear original to the car. There is minor wear and imperfections but that is to be expected of a 60 year old car. The headliner was also replaced when the wagon was repainted. It shows minor staining but overall it shows well. The carpet is in great shape, as well as the dashboard, which houses the original gauges and AM radio. The rear trunk floor is finished in wood and looks great while being unique to the Town & Country wagon. Under the hood, youll find a Chrysler Fire Power 331ci V8 engine. Attached to the engine is an automatic with a Safety Clutch feature, which is similar to a torque limiter or slip clutch. A safety clutch allows the rotating shaft to slip when higher than normal resistance is encountered. The wagon sits upon a set of 15 chrome wheels wrapped in P235/75R15 tires. As mentioned before, we do have the original owners handbook. This is a true California car.
