I had a 67 new yorker when i was18 and did her up a bit. rebuilt the engine with polished rods T.R.W. pistons Chrome molly rings and a crane fire ball cam. Holly single plane intake and a 2 inch tunnel ram riser. 750 cfm. holly carb and multi spark discharge . the 1 big factor is the 67 was the only 440 with closed chamber heads giving it higher compression than all others. I could smoke the tires almost off the car. when it hooked up i blew away a fire bird and a cor vet. fun car
Yep its been a while since I've been on but it's for sale for the right price. I just put in dual exaust on this a new Elderbrock Carb.. Wheels and tires so the price has gone up as you can imagine. I'm open to offers at this point and yes it is in VA. my email is lance.ziolkowski@gmail.com and emailing me would warrent a quicker response.
I loved driving them at 25 mph then flooring it and the back tire light up ,even from a stop just floor it and it spins for along time..then slaps you back in the seat.We used to blow away 5.0 Mustangs,Vettes and imports in the late 80's with my buddies...
The 440's ran smooth even running on 6.5 cyl...so do a compression check ,ensure the carb works good and it should haul..even with 2.76 gears they run like a new 300C Hemi or better..
Nice find. I learned to "drive" on '67 New Yorker - my Dad's. I loved that car. This one sounds like it is in pretty good condition. The exhaust is leaking - not too surprising. The engine makes 350 HP - torque around 410 I believe. I can remember a couple of family vacas int he car - getting about 17 MPG on the trip. Not too bad for the size. Big car - big trunk - smooth ride - good memories - please keep us updated on your progress as you restore this. Thanks for sharing it

You are trying to get rid of it?? Where are you located? I'm assuming VA because of the plates.

If anyone is interested in owning this car I'm all ears. I'm currently working on a Triumph and this has sat really since I bought it.

It would be so hard Not to put your foot down in this thing!! It sure floats, gotta love the no-feel power steering also.

440 had 480 torque,but it was underestimated !!
