Glad someone saved this awesome piece of 60's automotive history.
Excellent seeing another Newport rescued from the brink. Criminally unsung model when it comes to a restoration choice. Mine is in "hibernation" as I gird myself to do all the suspension, and everyone asking why they haven't seen it driving around lately.
REALLY SHARP!....love the Chrysler rallye wheels and no vinyl roof. The 383 pulls good!sounds great!....well done.
allen max thank you! And thanks for watching.
That kickdown is to die for.
Beautiful. Classy classic
joe, youve done a great job on this big c-body. I have a 1966 chrysler 300 when purchased, was in the condition like yours. I havent done the extensive work you have, but watching your videos, im ready for some updating. I bought mine off of a motor guy, which he cleaned and resealed the original motor, and 10 years later, no complaints. Great auto man.
I had a 68 light yellow black interior black vinyl top 383 hp loved it I terized my town 😂
Great to see this old gal getting a really nice thorough mechanical makeover. Great job guys.
Turboomni thank you and thanks for watching
Pretty EXQUISITE!
I've always loved those big fastbacks.
Lots and lots of great memories generated by this video, I learned to drive and took my test in a Chrysler identical to this one, learned some other things in the back seat as well. Great car Joe.
My Mom had one and I also learned to drive in it. That steering wheel is huge and was way over boosted, you could steer with one finger.
I’m in the “learned to drive and got my first license in a ‘67 Newport” club, too! Mum’s had the 383 with the high-performance package. That was a blast to drive!
That car is so bad ass
sweet ride.....love MOPAR....
man that thing sounds good!! i love it!
LOTS OF SMILES PER GALLON.
Sharp car looks good. looks like she runs nice. I like what he's doing with this car. The interior looks good, I like the matching colors (exterior/interior).
Great car, I'm envious, perfect overview. Long may it go.
MOPAR OR CALL A CAB, no really,you built it right,i can hear it in the exhaust note,the timing chain and valve springs are the secret to burning rubber forever in a mopar,i like your cam,reminds me of the 440-6 noise,i've got a 440k code 68 300 convertible,these c body cars will carry you forever,till we run out of gas anyways,enjoy youre in the right brand and year
Working on my 1966 new yorker right now.
nice! glad to hear
@@ric0000 Glad to see other C body enthusiasts out there. Not sure what I am going to do with my 73 newport yet though.
Do you think the disk brake upgrade was worth it?
@@19CD91 if your engine produces enough vacuum - yes. A stock engine, or a mildly modified engine like the 440 in my 300 creates a good amount of engine vacuum. Joe's 383 engine in this Newport has more aggressive modifications (hot street cam) so it does not really produce enough vacuum to really clap hard on the disc brakes. don't get me wrong it stops, but you have to give the pedal a good squeeze.
ric0000 I’m almost complete with my 1966 Chrysler Newport town sedan you guys rock !!! Definitely inspirational for me thanks 🙏🏽
I like the car, really nice ride-i have a couple Mopar s I'm getting going . seeing this video motivates me! the originality of the Newport is sweet-nice colors!!
We Love to hear that!! That is a big reason we like making these videos is to get other people into the hobby. The color is nice, it has the same teal color for the interior also.... lots of teal, but it works good together.
Reminds me of the stories my Uncle told me about the fun he had messing around with my Grandfather's 67 Plymouth Fury III with the 383 in it. He said that's the car he learned how to do J-turns, power slides, burn outs in when he was growing up. He said it wasn't as much fun when the Newports and that line of cars got bigger and my Grandfather replaced the 67 Fury with a 71 NewPort which was much bigger and heavier.
nothing is better then Turbo action shift kits
I subbed, this car is too cool.
damm that sounds great. I get the tire squeal also when it upshifts from two to three with the 440 in mine.
go for headers....awesome hp increase.....and absolutely ad msd.... i have a reman 69 383 in my 72 charger...was a 400 smog dog 190hp w 2v carb....383 w similar 40over pists match and rings....edel duak plane int man and holley 670 dbl pump carb....msd adds rediculous smoothness to accel of rpms....and also regap pluds to .45 w msd.....got an old analog msd on ebay 75 $...awesome diff....and u allready have electr dist....just need high volt coil....also go for 2800 to 3200 10 inch converter acc ...will blow ur mind....awesome orig car...
Insightful comments! I like our educated audience! Joe put it together with what he had available. I know he wanted to do headers, but he had to draw the line on the budget somewhere. I think you and Joe are on the same page with the converter, a higher stall is needed. I will take these into consideration while finishing up my 440 build. Thank you for watching!
should have built the 400, tbh
Hey Ric0000! I´m late to respond, but the original HP manifolds are highly demanded by original-liking Mopar nuts and especially so by C-body hobbyists, if the manifolds are coded to the big models. That said, I really recommend that Joe will keep them on the 383 in the Newport. Just my two cents.
@@frigglebiscuit7484 At least keep that early production 400, they have thicker cylinder bores,
@@paintnamer6403 I hope they did. I have a 1973 400 in my dart.
im in the process of putting a 383 from a 67 newport in my 66 charger has the closed chamber heads
You should upload videos of it. I have a 66 charger 383 project car myself. I have videos of it on my channel.
Good channel. Great video. Did a lot of work. Strong result. Find a new classic ride with me without leaving your home. I subscribed Im also like 207
One more question, between the 383 build and the 440 build Ive seen you choose the Hughes Mild street cam and the Hughes Whiplash cam. What it your preference between the 2 and why? Starting out on a well used 66 300 with the 383 installed and starting to make some decisions now. Body is super straight which is impressive for the age of the car and all the original parts are there so this should be fun. The interior is too tired and the headliner is torn and sagging (being held up my magnets currently, kinda smart quick patch) so I will refresh it but over all is in good shape.
Another great video Joe and ric0000! Only a few of us out here can truly appreciate the mid to late 60's Chrysler. Inspired to all get out! Can you check with Joe to see if I added Hughes Whiplash Camshaft to my fresh stock re-build of which has MAYBE 200 miles; 1) is it possible to do with the motor in the car 2) Will I see/feel any gains 3) Will the TransGo Shift Kit work on the Torque flight 727? 4) Where can I find a sure-grip?
Thanks for sharing your build! This video was awesome.
Ian Morado You should start uploading videos of your car, I'd like to see it. Check out my channel sometime.
I sure will. Thanks and yes I should.
Ian Morado cool
Ian Morado sorry for the delay
But yes the cam can be installed without removing the motor. The engine will probably loose some low end power, however this thing screams when the RPMS are above 3000-3500. Ran a 9.33 in the 1/8 mile with 3.91 gears and the 225/75/15 tire. Stock converter. 60' time was garbage 2.3 seconds if I recall...lol the trans go shift kit is for the 727. As far as a sure grip. It's some research to find them used and in good shape. However you can buy them new just $$$
Any pointers where I can acquire a new or used sure grip? Thanks for your response.
What is the stall on your current torque converter? You mentioned you would have changed it in hind sight; What would you change it to? And do you have a recommendation for which brand you would use with this set up?
You did a great job with this car...a few years in, I'm wondering how the disk brakes turned out/held up? I have a 1967 New Yorker 4 dr hardtop, and I know I would drive that car just about anywhere if I was sure of being able to get it stopped...(drums work ok, but the fade REAL quick).
This car is so sexy
Where is the oil filter located on that 383? Drivers side Passenger side way below?
johnnyohness front under the fan area 👍🏽
big block mopar oil filters stick out the front of the engine on the drivers side.
Stock converter?
Anthony Thompson yeah, should have changed it...,,soon
Joe made a comment wanting more stall converter, what does the Newport have now and what would he have liked to put in.
Thanks
Great Question, currently it’s the stock converter which is somewhere around 1800 (there abouts), he would like something in the 2300-2500 range.
67 Newport: 67 Charger on steroids...
Do you have to wear a neck brace after installing this "Whiplash Cam". :) It's a cool old car and sounds great.
LOL, I LOVE IT! Thank you.
Nice car do you ever drive it without shoes?
Only after work and the welding boots are sweaty…obviously.
Hey Joe, I see you shifting that trans like a manual. Can I do that with my stock 727 trans? Thanks! Great vid you guys!
absolutely....you can manually shift any auto tranny.....just be carefull on downshift to only go one gear
Is that Joe that does the distributor rebuild/ modifying ?
it is not, I think I've seen the guy you are talking about though.
@@ric0000 lol No problem it seem almost everbody has a doppelganger
Mopar crush the chevy.
Put some gears in that rear.
