First car I ever bought, I was in high school in 1978, was a '68 Chrysler 300, Sovereign Gold Metallic, White vinyl top, black interior, TNT 440 4bbl, 727 Torqueflight, Front disc/ rear drum brakes, 2 door w/ bucket seats and full center console with the factory vacuum guage at the front of the console. I bought it for $425, needed trans rebuild and lower ball joints (which I was able to do in auto shop class). Oh how I wish I still had that car!!!

Mega Cute Guy; if you park a car out in the woods, you should put mice traps in the car and under the hood

Me gusta el carro un Chrysler 300 1967; con un motor 440 TNT, Transmisión Automática, Dirección Hidráulica, Transmisión Automática; está muy conservado con su aspecto original; cuándo el motor está frío tarda mucho en encender; porqué no se le activa el cebador porqué las Revoluciones Por Minuto están muy bajas; el carro encendió sin problemas gracias a Dios; saludos.

[@CM79150]

Love the car man! Please keep the car/cold start videos coming. Are you on Instagram?

[@ric0000]

I am not... maybe I should think about that.

[@JohnneeD1]

Right on! You leave it outside during winter months? Sow

[@ric0000]

Thank you... And yes unfortunately it live outside during the winter, hoping to change that soon.

[@joesgarage9953]

Get a house

[@TheBukesde]

How do you like the 2.5" tti exhaust? Is it too loud for long drives in the cabin? Is it too loud on the outside for the neighborhood? I have 3" tti with headers in my 71 Newport and it is a bit too loud on the outside. Thinking about getting the 2.5" exhaust

[@joesgarage9953]

TheBukes.de I have the same kit on my Newport. It’s very nice. Loud when you are on it, but not too loud inside

[@ric0000]

haha, You win!

[@ACommenterOnYouTube]

16 seconds before it fired over.... Most would have stopped after 5 or 6 seconds getting the hint its not going to start that easy ...
And this is WHY we don't live up north... Cold weather SUCKS ...

[@joesgarage9953]

You Tube ?? Never started a car after sitting for a few months in cold weather? Had to pump the gas up to the carb.....

[@ACommenterOnYouTube]

@Joe's Garage:
I don't live in the COLD... therefore don't deal with my cars sitting for months in cold weather .. All my cars are driven. And even if it was that COLD like where you live, why not crank it up once per week just to keep the carb from getting clogged and to keep the fuel IN the carb..??

[@joesgarage9953]

You Tube not practical, wrapped up and buried in snow....not happening

[@ACommenterOnYouTube]

lots of things are not practical but people still do it ....
