    A Gorgeous, well-preserved `60 Chrysler alright!! My grandfather had a silver-green NY 4dr. hardtop with a white rook, and the toilet seat on the rear deck!! Power everything too! It was a beauty!

    In the mid-60s one of my girl friends had this same New Yorker but it did have A/C. He would toss me the keys so his daughter and I could head to the local drive-in for a burger and fry etc. My father had a very similar Chrysler product at that time too and it was a DeSoto. It was loaded as well but didn't have the "Dome" instrument cluster which I loved. That DeSoto replaced our 58 Edsel and the DeSoto was replaced by a 1965 Pontiac Grand Prix and my fondest cars have always been from that era. Thanks for sharing this beautiful "Land Yacht," they truly don't make them like these incredible works of automotive art any more.

After that for episode 003 is an awesome 1966 Pontiac GTO, then we definitely have a wonderful Buick Riviera, Cadillac, studebaker, Avanti and many other American beauties in the cue to shoot. It seems we are on track to release about 1 episode a month right now, but as we get streamlined hopefully twice a month .....

    This video made my weekend, as it represents two things very near and dear to my heart, our beloved Palm Springs and my ultimate dream car. I actually had one of these beauties when I was 18. Nowhere near the condition of this one, actually a basket case that languished in a farmer’s field for many years before I bought it for $1000. I had wild dreams of restoring it with my $4/hr shoe store paycheques, but before long reality set in and sadly, I had to let her go. If I could ever be in a position to own a classic car, this would be the one so that I could make my lifelong dream come true, and in PS to make it even more perfect. Thank you so much for creating and sharing this video. A beautiful car in a beautiful setting. Can’t ask for more than that! Subscribed and looking forward to more videos!

    What a superb video....clearly the best of this type I have seen....a stunning American car, and an architectural tour of Palm Springs......not even the Europeans consistently designed, and made their cars to be true Automotive works of Art like the Americans did.....some background music from , say, Frankie Avalon, B0bby Rydell or the Beach Boys would have been good also.

      In Palm Springs the summer can reach 120 F in the afternoon, so the key is to drive early in the morning with these non AC cars. But that makes the hot season episodes much more difficult to shoot. During the other 9 months however it is all ideal blue skies and 70-ish weather making it a perfect "The Cars of Palm Springs" area for enjoying these beautiful cars !

      Glad you mentioned that and hopefully can appreciate the amount of work and energy that goes in to these episodes ! This weekend it hit the usual 120 F or 49C , that is why we shoot these at sunrise - 5 to 6 AM and wrap it up by 8AM ! This morning - 7/16/23 at 8 AM it was 95 F or 35 C , by noon it was 114 F or 46 C it is very tough to shoot these old classic cars in the summer !
