Description for Chrysler Newport 1970

1970 CHRYSLER NEWPORT CORDOBA

FOUR DOOR HARDTOP

HISTORY

The all new for 1969 Fuselage styling was a huge hit with the public. There were minor trim changes and mechanical improvements for the 1970 model year. The Cordoba name was used in the spring of 1970 on a special trim package version of a Chrysler Newport hardtop (two-door and four-door).[1] This full-size model was a "limited edition luxury car, designed to introduce you to Chrysler" and consisted of an exclusive "Cordoba Gold" paint with matching wheels, wheel covers, and side molding with vinyl inserts.[1] Chrysler described this model's textured antique gold all-vinyl interior, matching vinyl roof cover, and the hood ornament with an Aztec eagle as "quiet Spanish motif".[1] Included in the $4,241.65 price was the 383cuin (6.3L) 290bhp (220kW) two-barrel carburetor V8 engine, automatic transmission, power steering, H78x15 fiberglass-belted whitewall tires, and a "golden tone" AM radio.[1] . Chrysler only produced 1,873 of the 1970 Newport Cordoba four-door hardtops. Very few have survived!

The 1970 Chrysler Newport Cordoba featured in this auction was originally purchased near Cleveland, Ohio. This car was never driven in the winter and is completely rustfree! I purchased it from the heirs of the original owners in 2003.This Newport Cordoba was featured in the Collector Buyer’s Guide of the Hemmings Classic Car issue of April, 2010. It was also photographed and included in Collectible Automobile’s October 2012 issue, Aerial Maneuvers: The Story of the1969-73 “Fuselage-Body” Chryslers. It was also pictured in Collectible Automobile’s December 2014 issue, Practical Extravagance: A History of the Four-Door Hardtop.

It was accepted and shown at the 2016 Keeneland Concours. Most of the cars accepted for these Concours shows are over restored examples. Chrysler was the featured marque there that year.
