- Just Aligned
- Carburetor completely rebuilt
- New Cap, rotor, plugs and wires
- Wiper Linkage Completely rebuilt

Car runs and drives very well.The motor has approx. 30k on a rebuild..my mechanic thinks it has a cam in it as it idles a bit lumpy and has better power than most 360s. Radiator was replaced at the same time.  Car has Incredible oil pressure...runs at the top of the gauge...even hot..on the road.  Uses absolutely no oil.  The car does not leak, burn or use any fluids.  The motor does not smoke, knock or tick and the transmission (torqueflite 904) shifts as it should. The car always starts easily- hot or cold.  Needs a vacuum advance installed on the distributor (I have the part, but runs well enough that I haven't bothered to put it in yet) and a rear tranny mount replaced, it's a little loose- will cure the slight driveline vibration that it has. A/C is currently inop but the compressor has a rebuild tag on it...haven't looked into it and the cruise linkage is unhooked from the carb...haven't looked into that either.

The front seat was reupholstered at some point in a different cloth and is a little faded.  Dash is good with no cracks. Even the digital clock works and keeps good time!

Although the car is very rust free and the chrome is in very good condition, the paint is definitely a 10 footer with fading on the top surfaces and some peeling around the edges and around the sunroof. The car was originally 2-tone Spinnaker White and Nightwatch Blue but was painted in the past what appears to be B-5 blue. Has (5) of the rare(r) cast turbine wheel covers. There is also some scaly rust in the trunk where it has leaked in the past.  Being a CA car, the door window seals and trunk gasket are a bit dry and crumbly. My mechanic loves working on this car as the underneath is so clean...there isn't even surface rust under there. I have personally driven this car on several 200-600 mile trips with no issues whatsoever. The car averages about 12-15 MPG around town and 18 MPG or so on the highway.  I have seen 21 MPG on a trip. I get 'thumbs up' and waves and smiles every time I drive the car.  I would love to keep it.

All in all a nice and reliable car... I was planning on keeping it, so I made sure it was done right, but lost my winter storage...and the car is too clean to leave out in the weather this coming winter. I can assist you with shipping as I  am familiar with it...but ultimately the pick-yp of the car is up to you.  Will be more than happy to meet your shipper or pick you up at the airport/bus terminal/train station if you choose to drive it home. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or if you would like more pictures.

2015 Chrysler 200 gets 36 mpg with Tigershark four-cylinder

Thu, 27 Mar 2014

Chrysler has come out with the official fuel economy information on the new 200 following the info that was leaked from the EPA earlier this week. It turns out that our initial report of 18 miles per gallon in the city and 29 mpg on the highway for the all-wheel-drive V6 was correct.
What we didn't know at the time, though, was what sort of economy the 200's other powertrain options managed. Outfitted with the 2.4-liter four-pot, Chrysler is promising 23 mpg in the city and 36 mpg on the highway, with a combined rating of 28 mpg. Those figures are fairly impressive; besting figures of the 2.5-liter Ford Fusion and tying the 1.5-liter, EcoBoost, non-start-stop model. It's also beats the four-cylinder Toyota Camry's 35-mpg highway figure while tying its combined efficiency.
Stepping up to the 295-horsepower Pentastar V6 pushes the economy down to 19 mpg in the city, while the highway figure is a respectable 32 mpg for the front-driver. The combined rating for the FWD V6 is 23 mpg. Those figures can't quite match the 270-horsepower 2.0-liter, EcoBoost four of the Fusion, which nets 22 city and 33 highway. In fact, the V6 200 has trouble besting even the 3.5-liter V6 of the Camry, which returns 21 mpg city and 31 mpg highway. Again, though, the 200 is noticeably more powerful.

Jeep Cherokee faces on-sale delay

Sat, 23 Mar 2013

A report in The Wall Street Journal looks at some of the obstacles to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee that go beyond its mootable yet "very contemporary" looks, almost all of them based on Fiat's financial position. Starting with that sheetmetal, in defense of it SRT president Ralph Gilles and Jeep design head Mark Allen said they wanted to "make sure the design still looks modern five years from now."
The WSJ piece doesn't cite longevity as a factor, instead saying that its features originated in a design for an Alfa Romeo, the transformation into a Jeep design meant allowing Chrysler get it to market more quickly and save "hundreds of millions of dollars" in engineering.
The need for Fiat to save money while it weathers the European situation has cut budgets for development, engineering and the pace of retooling the Toledo, Ohio plant to build the Cherokee. In a familiar case of snowballing at work, among the effects will be pushing back the Cherokee's volume sales date and delaying updates to some of Chrysler's other products.

Fiat Chrysler quietly sends Pentastar logo out to pasture

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

Logos come and go, and in the case of the famed Chrysler Pentastar, it's on its way back out. The well-known five-sided emblem, which sits prominently atop the massive Chrysler Technical Center complex in Auburn Hills, MI, is officially going to be phased out now that the company has united with Fiat and formed the new Fiat Chrysler Automobiles.
As a nearly 50-year-old icon, though, the fate of the Pentastar has been deeply intertwined with Chrysler's history. Hemmings has an excellent recap of that history, from its development in 1962 by a Chrysler ad agency through to its temporary discontinuation during the disastrous marriage between the American company and Daimler-Benz, and then on to its revival during the time the automaker regained its independence.
If you've been a fan of Chrysler and its brands over the years, you're going to want to give this piece a read. Head over and take a look.
