Love to see this car running and also see it cleaned up and looking smart again, it's got kool body lines, can't be many of this type of car around, should be worth a few bob to the ryt person, keep up the good work guy's 👍
I admire you're persistence to get it running by working through the night. 😊
From where you started...that was an amazing attempt to get it running! Hats off to you guys in your determination!
Definitely get this running. You don't come across these every day.
GET IT STARTED AND RUNNING. PUT ON A PART TWO PLEASE. WE ARE ASKING FOR IT. THANKS.
Hell yeah I'd like to see it cleaned up and running. I'd watch a full resto series on that car. Very cool. I also like how you guys keep each other laughing through the struggle.
Valiant effort gentleman!
I dunno , man. You got it on the trailer. It makes more sense to tow it home and work on it there, where you have power, proper tools, and can run somewhere for parts.
So, I've been watching this car on Marketplace for yeeeeeeeeeears. I live in MA and have contemplated getting it myself many times. Couldn't believe when this popped up on my KZread page! That was a valiant effort! You'll get it running, no doubt. Would love to see it running and driving! Good luck!!!
The 361 used a 2 barrel carb and the 413 used a 4 barrel. The New Yorker being top of the line used the 413.

Probably a Max Wedge experimental car. 🙄
Man, those 413s made 340 HP and 470 ft lb of torque. I have a feeling with the amount of rust on that one cylinder that the rings will never be able to seal against it, so it might be down a hole, but that's a great engine for the time.
Not gonna lie, I was actually going to run up and buy that! I bought a rusty 65 New Yorker with 412,000 miles on it instead though, and it wiped my bank account out.
I would love to see that limo running. Well done guys, keep up the good work 👍
Thanks for the video guys. I bought a Caddy and it didn't run either after getting it to crank find out it had three bent valves and I'm now to the point I can start to rebuild it. The parts are hard to find and not cheap. But I'm determined to get it running this summer. Keep working it and I'll keep watching
As soon as he threw those keys on the roof I thought "Oh oh there go the keys he's not gonna remember those and then later he'll be lookin!" LOL. Maybe not but we'll see.
Definitely love to see more of it
I love to to see old cars like this brought back to life. Where are you going to find a car like this anywhere else unless you really look
Hopefully you will continue trying to get it running, and make another video on it.
If that car was in commercial service (I'd say it was based on the heavy gauge vinyl seats front and rear, no a/c this wasn't a millionaires ride) it has a LOT of miles on it. It probably ran all day every day for years.

Lug nuts on driver's side are reverse threaded. You can not use them on the passenger side wheels.
it wasn't a limousine - it was an airport shuttle car - it would take you from the airplane to the terminal (before walkways were invented)

I guess you have never heard of an airport limousine? Some of them even had more doors than this one
In 1963 the New Yorkers came with the 413 wedge 340 horse big Block I believe. Very cool and awesome find.
There is a flat area for stamped letters n numbers. It is at front driver side (opposite of the distributer). If you are standing in in front of the grill/rad it is just to the right and a bit aft of the water neck/thermostat housing. It is a horizontal surface at about the same level as the block wall. If it is a 413 it be stamped T-41. T= 1963, 41 = 413, 1963 383 = T-38. 1963 361 would be T-36. These were hand punched and were not always very deep--may need to scrub clean to see. For block casting info (year etc.) you need to remove the starter.

Looks like a 413, I see that flat area on the front.
Good luck guys
It is illogical to leave out the most interesting parts of the effort. If the car magically jump on the trailer, you should have made a video of it.
I wanna see her on the road again, maybe as a resto mod?? Loved the vid guys!

You _think_ you hate it now, wait 'til you drive it....
"How does it smell ?" - Like a low budget nursing home. 🤣
After seeing the damage in that engine I was surprised you even tried to get it to run. That is totally crazy. I just subscribed...lol
I admire your collective sticktuitiveness and humor. You aren't really beat until you quit. :)
Holey cow. Someone finally bought it, its been advertised for sale for 20 years. I looked at that car in the early 2000nds. Its exactly where it was then and the hood was folded up allready.

it's too bad people will sit on something and let it rot rather than lower their price.
I'd love to see this beast running and driving again!
You lost me as soon as you said it was a 13mm for the hood bolts. They didn't use metric on American made cars ...
The New Yorker was top of the line. This is an airport limo worth saving!
Lots of work on the engine is need of work. My brother-in-law worked on an engine that had a very bad piston wall. And he did bring a replacement block that was in perfect shape. But my friend's dad did not want to pay for it. So, we built the engine anyway. And it rean pretty good. I saw my friend 3 years later and that engine was still running. That we never would happen. Now you are talking how me and one of my cousins did when we picked up an engine from the junk yard. We did know it needed to be rebuilt it, we wanted to hear it run first. Pretty crazy but that is what we did. I would like to see this engine rebuilt and running. I know you will have a much better chance to see the engine run. Please rebuild that engine!
I cant wait to see you get this running and driving and cleaned...way to go.
Small world, I've been staring at that thing on Marketplace for at least a year. Glad somebody snagged it, I was sure it was going to scrap. Cheers from NH.

Where it should be lol I. The crusher.
Distributor up front, I ***Believe*** means some sort of big block.
361, 383 stamped near the distributor, 413, 426, 440, stamped on the right front flat area on the block as you look at it, easy to see.
11:00, If steering wheels are supposed to be round, why does Tesla put square steering wheels in their cars, lol I guess Chrysler did it first. The battery was disconnected, it would be interesting if it still had some voltage.
Round 2 for sure !
that is a great video! thank you very much
Get it running!
More, more, more. We want to see more.
I was waiting to see a cop stop by, and the explanation that would be given for taking an engine apart in some ones parking lot !

Like to see it running for sure. First of your videos I have seen.
That basket is called a STOKES Basket, for rescues.
Huge fan of the c-body mopars
I believe that's an airport limo. It would shuttle from an airport to a hotel, that's why there is 6 doors.
Ready for round 2
I'm 44 and in Massachusetts. That car has been for sale since since I was in my teens. In the Want Ads, and the papers. Always wondered who would be dumb enough to buy it.
I recall someone in our club back in the 8o's had one of these. Possibly, it could be the same one, since we were in Massachusetts then. I recall it being pretty nice then, but that was about 40 years ago.
I would love to come and work with you guys! I'm retired, disabled, 57 years old with nothing to do. I feel I'd fit right in with you guys lol You have the same drive and persistence I used to have. Keep up the great work.
NICE WORK. It has been my experience that when a big block Mopar is stuck, you are too. Something about the materials they use or closer tolerances, but just one piston with rusted rings, and game over.
Wow. That is dedication. What a job. I like the video. Nice work. Would love to see it run.
I would like to see more. Maybe pull the engine and free up rings etc…
That bicycle rim is the power wheel for an e-bike
The 413 is an RB block, the 361 is a B block. The RB had a higher deck than the B. In most cases the RB can be identified by and embossment near the distributor in front of the intake with the engine size stamped into the embossment. I can see the embossment in front of the intake, so it is likely a 413, but there is a possibility it could be a 426 max wedge as well. Though it doesn't have the max wedge intake, Chrysler has done stranger things, and being this is a limousine...this is where you would find those strange things happening. It looks like you have tons of room to bore it as well, I would fix it up. On the B the embossment is on a slant in front of the drivers side head. Either engine is a good find. Very cool car, thank you for sharing.
I had a 63 NY Salon, A/C, Auto-Pilot, reverberator on the rear speaker, the Salon came with almost every option standard, and it drove great. That will be a great driving limo. FYI, KYB shocks work really well on them ')
You guys went waaaay above and beyond on that ol thing. Great job
I saw this for sale on FB Marketplace like a month ago. So cool to see the story continue!
That was an Ebike tire you found in the backseat. Strange. It looked like a modern one but is probably 20 years old.
It is not turning fast enough. It could be the starter, the battery or the cables? If it is a Chrysler product you can put another used engine in it? Fun video.
It's a 413. All New Yorkers came with a 413 in 1963.
Great video, work and car guys back to life, subscribed😀🇧🇻
sell it to Jimmys world, he would probably put a plane on it with propeller or something

Watched that thing on marketplace for months
In 1963 chrysler newyorker came standard with a 413
Some 10 years ago I happened on one of these in a you pull yard that was an abandoned project. Motor looked like fresh rebuilt with new paint. I should have bought that.
Armbruster-Stageway is the name of a company who created limousines and airport transporter vehicles. A net search doesn't provide any specific '63 New Yorker limousines, and the stretched '64 NY I found had a different style of alteration so it may or may not be that company. Frame connectors if they make them that long, if not already on it, might be a good investment for someone.
See that pad on the front drivers side of block? That means it is a raised block, 413, 426, and later 426 Hemi and the wedge 440. The ci is stamped onto that pad. On 361, 383 motors the pad is on same plane as deck of block where heads attach. Also with the ci designation stamped on it.
new plugs points leads coil , reco carby, reoplace lifters and dodgy valves, new head gasket
Yes a cool car Peace out
They worked very hard and so many hours. God will give you the favor of understanding it. I can't wait to see the next video and for it to be on. God bless you guys...
Since it is a New Yorker model the engine should be a 413cu.in. V8. Sorry everything was locked up so bad.
I would like to see that Limo running
You really tried guy's. Enjoyed your humor. Thanks for sharing.
At least I'm seeing some snap-on tools! I know other guys use all harbor freight tools, which is a miracle in itself they get the job done with that crap! Wow pulling it with an Explorer 😅 Amazing!
Man, one of these was just brought in to a junkyard I go to recently! That is really crazy odds
Find the engine serial numbers and look it up!
Id like to see the old girl run!
Man, that car screams restoring!!!!
I hope we get to see more videos of the car.
Getter running. U have come this far
Never seen one of those before!
NICE
I would like to hear that Chrysler run. I hope you will have it online here so I can see what you all done to that piece of history.
Nice try guys… I had a ‘63 300 Chrysler in the 70’s and it had the 383. Sweet car to drive and I could fit the whole PA system from my band into the trunk. I hope you can get that New Yorker back into shape .It could become the perfect Band Bus “Got Me Chrysler …it's as big as a Whale. And it’s about to set sail ! “
In the UK and invested Now😂Please Restore this we need to see more videos 👍
OK I saw this I clicked on it. And the first line had me busting. A gut. Love this video. You guys are awesome :-)
