In this age of Scheduled Obsolescence, who would expect a K Car to last 30 years? Definitely not me. Good Job!
I love the look of these old cars. Thank you for watching!
Great to see another one of these. We had one some years ago, and it was a great car. They had a good sounding stereo in them if you can get it going. Nice to see someone else appreciate these cars👍
Good deal for the money .its the le model too .a little at a time .still better then a 500 dollar a month car payment for a car that probably won't last half as long good luck with it
I really want one of these. It's so rare to find!
Restore it. Future survivor
All do what I can thank you for watching!
I learned to drive in a Dodge Dynasty. What a throwback. Ours had this annoying problem where if you moved the gear selector past drive into 3rd, it would get stuck. It was so annoying.
If I remember correctly, the trunk release should be in the glove box but that might just be for the Chrysler New Yorker/Fifth Avenue/Imperial. I got it from watching the owner videos on UA-cam.
Yes, I've got a 93 Dynasty, and the trunk release is in the glove box.
This would make a really good daily driver these are insanely nice cars I swear back in the 80s and 90s Chrysler knew how to make a good car.
I like that they had front bench seats
Split bench was the best too
I had one that looked identical to that one years ago. I broke the "D" and the "y" off the emblem so it just said "nasty". Very comfy cars. Mine only had 2nd gear and reverse though lol.
I've got a 1993 in a beautiful blue with a black interior. Its got some dents and bad rust damage on the rockers, but the frame and underside is pretty rust free. It runs a little rough at times, but it hasn't let me down. I intend to fix her up and keep her as my daily. Its been in our family Its whole life. Too nostalgic to give up on.
Car looks great nice job ! I believe the factory color for your dynasty is called Dusty Rose
Get a multi meter and chase down the short or run a hard power wire and get the radio working
Put a multimeter on the battery and see what its drawing. Then keep it on and start pulling fuses, when you pull the correct fuse your reading should drop. Then you know which electrical system is causing your draw
Looks comfy af, lol.
Disconnect the stereo and see if the short persists. If it does, it's somewhere between the radio and the fuseboard, (re-do the wiring) otherwise get the radio itself fixed. The battery discharging has nothing to do with it as the short will be somewhere down the line from the fusebox, and the fuse is blown. The battery itself might be done for? Obviously do not put in a bigger fuse, only ever put in the rated fuse or even a little lower could do just fine if it works right.
Could you kindly replace the chime in this Dodge Dynasty with a scary buzzer from a 1991-97 Dodge Ram Truck?
Flip they key forwards three times to the on position not run and the check engine light will flash and show u the codes .
Unsure if this has the ultradrive auto trans. Had a 91 Plymouth Acclaim that went through 3 of them -- covered under Chrysler powertrain warranty back then. Aside from that overall a decent car as I am sure this Dynasty will be if given some tlc...Good luck!
Don't sweat it...the engine or transmission will probably shell before the body rust out....btw think they had the caravan engines in em😂
It looks like the previous owner(s) took pretty good care of it. That’s a good sign.
Other than changing the fluids I would say yes. Thank you for watching!
Good job! Keep her running!
How is the old car working out?
Those hubcaps are super rare
Where are you located? I have one just like it with some rust sitting in New Hampshire I’d give you for free. Lots of parts you could use to address the issues you were pointing out.
That would be awesome too bad I'm in Pennsylvania. What's wrong with yours besides rust. Seems to me they're becoming pretty rare.
@@YankeeValleyOutdoors I’ve had it parked in a gravel lot since 2021. Ran and drove when parked, same colors and miles as yours, same rust at that time, probably worse now. I live in Florida and I’ll never bring the car down here, would rather give it to someone like you that appreciates it than junk it. You could take a truck and a Uhaul trailer and get it back to PA on a Saturday or something I reckon. If not no worries.

@@YankeeValleyOutdoors there are old videos of it on my channel when I bought it in 2018. It was in pretty nice shape, you could maybe even use yours for parts to fix it if you took it.
My grandmother has one in the back yard it is in bad shape but dust and rust. I wish my grandpa would of took care of it but what can you do.
nice for a $900 beater
I think 900 was a good deal. Thank you for watching!
Imagine doing a hellcat swap lol ??
Imagine yes😂 Will I ever be able to afford that no. Thank you for watching 😁 I appreciate you tuning in!
Even a 3.8L swap would provide cheap, excellent power. A very small number of Police Dynastys came with that engine.
Cool 😀
Thank you and thank you for watching!
I can teach you anything you need to know about these cars.. I've had 4
What kind of scares me is we took the car out for a test drive after we changed the brakes and calipers. My dad says he hears a vibration when he shifts out of high gear. He thinks it might be the torque converter 🙃 It's going into the garage tonight! I guess that's something extra he'll have to look at.
@@YankeeValleyOutdoors might be a mount also... If the torque converter goes it bangs thru all the gears not just when it locks out
@@rainbowmangarage Before we replaced the front motor mount every time we would speed up and slow down we were getting a jerk 😂
@@YankeeValleyOutdoors check the transmission mount too
@@rainbowmangarage Will do Thank you! I will definitely have more questions.
If someone paid you $900 to take this car, or any Chrysler that old, politely decline. This car has a negative $2,500 value, that’s the time, energy, and parts needed to bring its value to zero
Better than a car payment jealous 😊.
Use a bigger fuse
Do not do this.
@@2dfx
How to fix this then
Worst advice one could give. ^^
By doing the right trouble shooting. Disconnect the stereo and see if it itself is the problem or the wiring down the line from the fuse. Could theoretically also be a speaker or speaker wire but I don't think so.

That sounds like a good idea since if it’s bad then you would just already have it out
