AI-assisted summary

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-maintained condition – a real eye-catcher for enthusiasts of classic American cars.

BODYWORK & PAINTWORK

The Chrysler is in very neat and presentable condition.
The lacquer is older but retains its deep shine and authentic appearance.
The chrome work is well-maintained, except for the front bumper corners, which have been spray-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 fitted 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 drives, shifts, and brakes excellently. The 354 HEMI V8 engine delivers powerful, smooth performance and produces 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
Motor and drive system in good working condition.

The Chrysler is technically well maintained and ready to drive immediately.

Interior

The interior is a true reflection of luxury and style.
The dashboard is in beautiful condition, with original details and a well-maintained finish.
The upholstery is neat, while preserving the classic appearance of the 1950s.

There is a discreet modern radio system installed under the dashboard, while the original radio has been preserved – a perfect balance between authenticity and comfort.

The interior space breathes the atmosphere of American grandeur: spacious, comfortable, and elegant.

Documentation

The Chrysler comes with:

Dutch license plate
Invoice for the new stainless steel exhaust (€ 2,250)
Diverse dozen spare parts, including extra bumper parts.
- No COC document required (year of construction before 1996)

Other Information

The mileage reading is 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 an inspection is recommended to personally experience the quality.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience.

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.
