$31,500
137 hp, 323.5 cu. in. L-head inline eight-cylinder engine, three-speed Fluid-Drive transmission, independent front suspension with coil springs, solid axle rear suspension with leaf springs, and four-wheel hydraulic drum brakes. Wheelbase: 127.5 in.With a model lineup that led from modest sixes to semi-custom eights, Chrysler covered an unusually broad spectrum of the luxury and near-luxury market in 1941. The company was the tenth best seller in the model year and the eighth largest producer of American cars in the calendar year, standing based upon careful engineering, thoughtful features, attractive subtle styling, and sound value for the money.
The 1941 New Yorker featured a steeply raked ve’ed windshield, complemented by a sharply pointed hood, a grille blended into the sculpted lines of the body, and delicate accents of bright beltline moldings and chrome parking lights atop the front fenders. The proven Chrysler straight eight, now called the Spitfire and boasting 137 horsepower, ensured that owners would enjoy both excellent performance and a level of refinement, comfort, and safety as good as anything else from Detroit.The New Yorker Convertible represented Chrysler’s most elite, sporting open model for 1941, and one of its rarest production cars, as only 1,295 were made. Relatively few have survived, making the model a desirable acquisition for any fine collection.
The car offered here is in its original color of Tropical Tan, also sporting the Highlander interior package—rich mahogany leather seating lined with plaid cloth inserts and door panels, and new cloth power top shows its well-preserved features and originality. Further, in addition to its standard 3 speed manual transmission with overdrive, it is equipped with a push-button AM radio (which is not currently working), dual fog lights, driver side mirror and spotlight, as well as the rare rear wheel fender skirts, hubcaps with beauty rings, and wide whitewall tires.
The car starts instantly and drives beautifully. It is ready to enjoy on the road or at the next local show, savoring the quality and beauty that is the 1941 Chrysler New Yorker.
