Description from the seller
GENERAL
For sale: a 1956 Chrysler New Yorker Limousine, equipped with the iconic 354 HEMI V8 engine.
This majestic limousine combines the power and grandeur of 1950s America with timeless elegance and craftsmanship.
The car has a Dutch license plate and is in very well-kept condition – a real eye-catcher for fans of classic American cars.
BODYWORK & PAINT
The Chrysler is in very neat and representative condition.
The paint is older but retains its deep shine and authentic appearance.
The chrome work is cared for, with the exception of the front bumper corners, which have been painted black.
The bodywork is solid, neatly aligned and the panels fit well. Under the hood and in the trunk, everything is exceptionally clean and well maintained.
Recently, the car was equipped with a completely new stainless steel exhaust (invoice available € 2,250).
This Chrysler presents itself as a particularly beautiful specimen, ready to enjoy or display.
TECHNICAL
The car runs, shifts, and brakes excellently. The 354 HEMI V8 engine delivers powerful, smooth performance and provides the characteristic deep V8 sound.
The automatic transmission functions properly and shifts smoothly.
Technical details:
- 354 cu. in. HEMI V8 – powerful and reliable engine
- Automatic transmission
- New stainless steel exhaust
- Engine and drive in good working order
The Chrysler is technically well maintained and ready to drive.
INTERIOR
The interior is a true time capsule of luxury and style.
The dashboard is in wonderful condition, with original details and a refined finish.
The upholstery is neat, preserving the classic look of the 1950s.
There is discreetly installed a modern radio unit under the dashboard, while the original radio has been retained – a perfect balance between authenticity and comfort.
The cabin exudes the atmosphere of American grandeur: spacious, comfortable and elegant.
DOCUMENTATION
The Chrysler is delivered with:
- Dutch registration
- Invoice of the new stainless steel exhaust (€ 2,250)
- Various boxes of spare parts, including extra bumper parts
- No COC document required (year of manufacture before 1996)
The car is fully imported and ready for use within Europe.
OTHER INFORMATION
The odometer reads 60,000 miles.
Although the Chrysler is in excellent condition, it remains a nearly 70-year-old classic – small improvements are always possible.
The car is described carefully, but a viewing is recommended to experience the quality personally.
We can arrange transport across Europe.
The car can be viewed and possibly collected in Damwoude, Netherlands.
A unique opportunity to own a genuine American limousine with HEMI power – rare, stylish, and in exceptionally neat condition.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
