Vehicle Description
HIGHLIGHTS: 
• True one-owner car with 61,730 actual miles 
• Still on the original North Carolina title! 
• Never previously offered for sale since new 
• Excellent documentation including original title, window sticker, owner’s manual, and warranty booklet! 
• Finished in original Nightwatch Blue with partial blue vinyl top 
• Blue leather interior 
• Original, unrestored example! 

BODY OVERVIEW: 
This Fifth Avenue presents as a well-preserved survivor, retaining its original panels and trim. The body is straight and consistent with careful long-term ownership, showing the honest character of an unrestored car rather than the signs of cosmetic shortcuts or modifications. Body imperfections are at a minimum, but buyers should keep in mind that this is an unrestored, 41-year-old car. 

PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW: 
The Nightwatch Blue paint appears to be original and still shows well overall, but buyers should note clearcoat delamination on the hood, roof, trunk, and a few smaller areas. This is a cosmetic issue typical of original paint from the era and reinforces the car’s survivor status. Those chasing perfection may desire a repaint, but for those seeking a presentable, original driver, the paint is just fine. 

INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW: 
The blue leather interior is exactly what made the Fifth Avenue a serious luxury contender at the time: plush, comfortable, and inviting. Interior wear is minimal and consistent with the mileage. The seats, trim, and dash present very nicely, and this car is unbelievably comfortable to sit in and ride in. Like driving a couch!

MECHANICAL OVERVIEW: 
Powered by Chrysler’s quiet and dependable 318 V8, this New Yorker runs smoothly, starts easily, and delivers a hushed, comfortable ride. The automatic transmission shifts nicely, and this car turns very smoothly (as one would expect from a luxury car). This car has not been driven regularly in recent years, so routine recommissioning such as new tires and fluid services are recommended before regular use. 

WHAT YOU’LL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR: 
• True one-owner provenance, still on original title 
• Outstanding original documentation 
• Unmodified, unrestored survivor 
• Iconic Fifth Avenue luxury and comfort 
• Time-tested 318 V8 

WHAT YOU MIGHT HATE ABOUT THIS CAR: 
• Clearcoat failure in some areas
• Power windows not working properly 
• Not a turnkey daily driver without some maintenance 

DOES IT NEED ANYTHING?:
Buyers planning to drive the car should expect to perform basic recommissioning including tires, fluid changes, and addressing the power window operation as several windows are not working correctly. 

WHAT BUYER IS LOOKING FOR THIS CAR?: 
This Chrysler is ideal for the collector or Mopar enthusiast seeking a genuine, one-owner M-body that hasn’t been restored, altered, or passed around. If originality, documentation, and survivor status matter more than perfection, this Fifth Avenue is a rare and compelling find at a price point everyone can enjoy!
