1971 Chrysler New Yorker First Start, Drive, Wash, Trip! Off the road for 30 years will it make it??

I purchased this 1971 Chrysler New Yorker from a local auto repair shop in Williams, California. I actually had seen the car for sale but the person wouldn't reply to my messages. Sometime later it was spotted at the repair shop. It hasn't been driven since the 1990s. The shop did various work to the car for a customer who then refused to pay. They ended up doing a lien sale on the car and that...

In this video I see what's involved with installing a receiver hitch on my 1979 Dodge D200 Crew Cab pickup. This is a brand new Curt hitch model 14001. I will go through the installation and any issues along the way. This hitch is supposed to fit Dodge trucks from 1967 to 2002. That's a pretty wide range and I don't know if that is entirely true. I had some minor issues with the hitch install b...

    A friend of mine that I worked with had a tan wagon the just like that one that had a 360 v-8 in it . His Dad said that it was ordered set up like the police version , I don’t know how true it is but I know that the wagon ran like a scalded dog! It was fast lol and never broke down . But looking at that wagon especially being tan inside and out and just kinda ordinary like it was , it made for the perfect sleeper lol . I actually wanted to buy that wagon but it was given to a family member a few years later that needed a car . This video reminded me of that car . Hail if you put that one up for sale , I might be interested lol
