I had to relist this auction because I was not able to add the info needed to the first one.
When I brought the car to my house as described below the truck was locked and there was no key. While fielding questions about parts I realized there is too much missing from the car and I remember seeing all that stuff at some point. Anyway, I got into the truck and found all of the missing parts. So I canceled the first auction and started this one. This way everyone has all of the information from the start. Thank you.

I have owned this car since 1980.
I used to drive it all the time but over the past ten years it has been sitting in my driveway.
I changed the top but my cat and the weather were able to tear it up.
The car was always stored with a high quality cover. I changed the cover about five times over the years. The car was last stored at my office for about six years. I just sold that building and so you can see in some of the photos the car was towed to my house.
I just now wrapped it in the blue non breathable tarp knowing it would only be here for a week or two. My village is very picky about unregistered cars in the driveway, which is why I covered it.
The car is all original. The dashboard with the dome panel. The push button transmission gears. All of the chrome. Most of the missing interior parts in the photos are packed nicely in the trunk.
The car has little to no surface rust.
I haven't started the engine in a few years.
This car needs a full restoration. I have a clean TRANSFERABLE REGISTRATION, which in NY for 1970 and older is the same thing as a title.
It is a great project car for anyone who has the time and the effort.
The car is located on Long Island in NY. Anyone is welcome to see the car before or after winning the auction.
Once payment is made the sale will be final.
Buyer is responsible for all transpiration of the vehicle.
The car must be removed within ten days of sale.

About the car itself.
The engine is a big block. I am not sure of the engine size exactly.
There is one carb and everything is original.
At some point I was going to restore the car and so I took apart the interior. It is all sitting in the trunk.
All the door panels and little reading lights and power window switches are all there.
There exterior 300 emblems are in great condition.
The top is ripped up but the mechanics of the top work fine.
You can see the truck photos show no rust or bond.
Even though the car sat it held up very well. This was a running and driving car with working everything when I last used it. But that was a while ago. So the only thing wrong with the car would be time and lack of use.

Chrysler recalling over 200k vehicles across its brands

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

With more than 200,000 units across six separate recalls and almost all of its brands, it appears that Chrysler has officially jumped headfirst into the recall pool this month. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued three official recalls for the automaker, and The Detroit News is reporting that the automaker itself has announced three more.
The biggest of the recalls applies to about 120,000 Dodge Charger, Dodge Challenger and Chrysler 300 models for 2011 and 2012 due to faulty wiring harnesses for the seat-mounted side airbags, which could lead to these airbags not deploying in the event of a crash. A little more than 60,000 two-wheel-drive versions of the 2007-2008 Dodge Nitro and 2008 Jeep Liberty SUVs are being recalled due to a heat shield that could cause the driveshaft to break, which if that isn't bad on its own, could then hit underneath where the airbag sensor is mounted, causing the airbags to deploy. Wrapping up NHTSA's recall notices, about 20,000 Jeep Patriot and Jeep Compass models for 2012 are also being recalled due to a problem with the fuel tank transfer tube that could lead to the vehicle stalling. The LX car recall campaign is going into effect this month, while the other two will start next month - all three notices are posted below.
In addition to the official NHTSA recalls, The Detroit News is also reporting that Chrysler is recalling more than 16,000 Ram trucks and a small number of Dodge Dart sedans. Around 6,500 2013 Ram 1500 trucks will be recalled due to an improper adjustment of the parking brake cable from the factory, while 7,000 Cummins-powered 2013 Ram Heavy Duty trucks are being recalled due to an engine cover that does not have as much heat resistance as it is supposed to. Finally, a total of 46 Dodge Dart sedans are being recalled due to a problem with the brake calipers and/or parking brake.

Bailout dealership cuts did their job as profits surge

Tue, 01 Oct 2013

Almost five years after US taxpayers bailed out General Motors and Chrysler, a large majority of their slimmed-down dealership networks are posting soaring profits, Bloomberg reports, and contributing to the US auto industry on track this year to deliver 15.4 million vehicles, the most since 16.15 million were delivered in 2007.
Consider another important figure: Bloomberg says that more than 90 percent of GM dealerships are profitable, compared to about half of them in 2008 and 2009. At the start of 2013, GM had 4,355 US dealerships and Chrysler had about 2,600. Compare that with just a few years ago, when GM had 6,246 dealers in 2008, while Chrysler had 3,200 in 2009.
As part of their bankruptcy restructuring, both GM and Chrysler decided that their retail networks contained far too many dealerships and insisted that they be slimmed down. The resultant dealership terminations followed by a rebounding auto market - in part due to better new GM and Chrysler vehicles - have increased the number of sales per dealership to record levels. Many dealers are taking advantage of increasing profits and investing in facility renovations and updates, such as Chrysler dealership owner David Kelleher. He's spending $2 million to expand his store.

Jeep follows up Super Bowl spot with call to help the USO

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Once again, Chrysler had one of the most talked about Super Bowl commercials with its two-minute Whole Again Jeep spot, which was used to highlight its Operation SAFE Return program for US military personnel returning home from active duty. As part of this campaign, Jeep announced today that it will be donating up to $300,000 to the United Services Organizations (USO), and you can help.
Simply tweet using the #joinOSR hashtag on Twitter, visit the Yahoo! homepage or go to the Jeep Operation SAFE Return website, and Jeep will donate $1 to a fund that provides returning troops things like employment assistance and incentives to buy new vehicles. Jeep is also donating to this charity to the tune of $250 for each Jeep Wrangler and Wrangler Unlimited (including the Freedom Edition model) and Jeep Patriot Freedom Edition model sold.
