1963 Chrysler 300 Pace Car Convertible Project Car on 2040-cars

Year:1963 Mileage:103142

Mentor, Ohio, United States

This is a 1963 Chrysler Pace car convertible project.  The car has a 383 with 4bbl carb and automatic with power steering and brakes.  The car runs and drives but needs some brake work.  The interior floor pans were replaced, and the car need quarter panel replacement or repair , some rocker panel repair as well.  The trunk floor is completely gone, although there is a new floor and new drop off panels included as are new rocker panel sheet metal.  The driver front fender is rusted badly but a nice solid replacement is included with the car.  The convertible top mechanism works, but of course a new top will be required.  The interior seats are solid but need to be re-upholstered.  There are new door handles for the interior included.  Have the air cleaner top for car. Gas tank is probably beyond repair, although previous owner started repairs on it. Car is a project needing a good bit of work, but cost is pretty reasonable.  The doors do not sag and close solidly. Have clear Tennessee title for car.  Transport is the responsibility of the buyer.  I have included a reference picture for a completed car, which of course would be your goal for this project.  Call Ted if any questions 440-478-6801. These cars are really sharp when completed.

Ward's releases 10 Best Interiors list for 2014

Thu, 10 Apr 2014

While we're still a ways off from the automotive awards season proper, where things like North American Car and Truck of the Year, Motor Trend's Car of the Year and Car and Driver's Ten Best are named, that doesn't mean there aren't trophies being handed out to deserving automakers. Ward's 10 Best Interiors being one of them.
As the name might imply, the magazine focuses on the very best interior treatments in the US market. Whereas some awards purposely exclude extreme, high-dollar offerings, Ward's considers them - the only requirement is that a vehicle has a "new or significantly redesigned interior."
Ward's offered up the list of winners in simple, alphabetical order, and it only seems fair to do the same:

Chrysler recalling 49K Chargers for headlight components

Fri, 14 Mar 2014

Chrysler has issued a recall for about 49,375 2011 and 2012 Dodge Chargers with halogen headlamps due to a problem with the lights. The automaker says that there could be an issue with the jumper harness and other related components.
The automaker says that 43,450 cars are affected in the US, 2,850 in Canada, 375 in Mexico and 2,700 outside of North America. The vehicles will have their headlight assemblies, including the jumper harnesses and bulbs, inspected and potentially replaced. Dodge says that its engineers investigated reports of that were similar to what was found when it recalled about 10,000 police Chargers in 2012 for overheating light components. There have been no injuries or accidents related to fault, according to Chrysler.
The automaker will be in contact with affected owners, and schedule the service. Naturally, any repairs will be free of charge. Scroll down for the company's full announcement.

2013.5 Chrysler 200 S Special Edition is a Sebring swan song

Wed, 27 Mar 2013


The world is set to get an all-new Chrysler 200 next year, thereby finally putting the bones of the long-serving Sebring to rest. To tide us all over until then, the automaker has released the 2013.5 200 S Special Edition. As a collaboration between Chrysler and the Imported from Detroit clothing line, the sedan features plenty of aesthetic tweaks to give it a bit more attitude. Those include tinted headlamp and taillamp housings, body-color door sills and 18-inch gloss black wheels. There's also a revised front fascia with a black mesh grille, while the tail end gets a decklid spoiler and a revised valance.
Indoors, the seats are clad in black, water-resistant fabric courtesy of Carhartt. Expect to see the 2013.5 200 S Special Edition in dealers soon with a price tag of $28,870. While there are plenty of questions to be asked here, one is more nagging than the others. Why bother buying the special edition when an all-new model is mere months away? It's an age-old question, but it still bears asking. Check out the full press release below for more information.
