1968 Chrysler Newport Convertible By Frank Castelvecchi
This Is My Mopar:
1968 Chrysler Newport Convertible getting ready to pull 25 Girlscouts in a Christmas Parade. The car is 440 powered with a 727 torqueflight. While the Newport seats 6, carries more in the trunk that a minivan does behind the rear seat, and is rated to pull a larger trailer (5500#) than many pickups, it will still smoke rustangs and screaming chickens. The new convertibles do not have room for carrying the wife and three children--they only have room for a girlfriend. The float trailer is on a 50's pickup chassis.
