1957 CHRYSLER IMPERIAL CROWN

TWO-DOOR HARDTOP WITH FACTORY HEMI


Here is a very rare find, and with interesting historical papers showing the car registered to the Mexican Presidents home (Los Pinos) in 1958.  This is a 1957 Chrysler Imperial Crown South Hampton Edition.  


The car runs and drives and still has its original 392 Hemi “Fire Power” motor and push button transmission.    The car came with Power Steering, Power Brakes, Power Windows, Power Seat etc.  No Air Conditioning. 


All the glass is good,  the power windows kinda work, but very slowly.  Wipers work, can’t get headlights to come-on.    The original radio is there but does not function.  The speedometer works and mileage reads 93,XXX.  A few gauges work...a few don’t.


The body of the car is really nice over all...I have found no signs of Bondo.  The original floors, and trunk pan are intact and solid.  The car has minor rust issues as in bubbles under the paint in a few areas. 


The brakes stop the car but currently the car pulls a bit.  It looks like the passenger front brake wheel cylinder is leaking.   


The interior was redone at some point, its presentable, The carpet is old, and it could use a new headliner.  The chrome on the car is good to poor condition.  The car is like 52 years old.   The front bumper should be re chromed.  Missing one small piece of trim over a headlight.    


The original paint color was Gun Metal Gray.  I saw some pictures of it and it looked smashing.  If you have questions, I have answers...please call Houston Wills at 210-548-1310.  The car comes with a clear Texas title and a file of old documents going back to 1957.

Chrysler 100, midsize CUV and plug-in hybrid minivan launch bid to go mainstream

Tue, 06 May 2014

The news just keeps on rolling from Auburn Hills today, as Fiat Chrysler continues to detail its five-year growth plan. This time round, we're talking about Chrysler. The troubled American brand has been limited in the past few years to the lamentable Sebring/200, the Town & Country and the 300, although that's likely to change in the coming years.
"The Chrysler brand is not luxury - it's not premium. Chrysler is the mainstream American brand," brand CEO Al Gardner said during today's presentation.
Gardner set a sales target of 800,000 units by 2018, which marks an increase of 350,000 units compared to its 2013 sales results. That's a pretty big ask for a brand that's struggled to define itself over the past decade.

Airbag recall widens to include BMW, Chrysler, Ford and Toyota

Mon, 23 Jun 2014

The recall of faulty airbag inflators supplied by Takata has exploded today to grow to seven automakers. In most cases, only models in certain high-humidity regions were affected because the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found in its investigation that moisture played a roll in determining whether there would be a problem. However, some companies opted for national campaigns. The exact number of affected models for these campaigns isn't yet known at this time.
BMW is recalling an undisclosed number of 325i, 325Xi, 330i and 330Xi models from the 2001 through 2005 model years and the 2001-2006 model year versions of the 325Ci and 330Ci for the driver side and passenger side inflators. Only vehicles currently registered in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands are covered under this recall.
Neither Chrysler's filing with NHTSA nor its press release list the specific models affected, but a company spokesperson told Autoblog that at this time it only covers the driver and passenger side inflators for the 2006 Dodge Charger in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the US Virgin Islands

2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat revealed [UPDATE]

Wed, 13 Aug 2014

Almost immediately after we drove the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, we began wondering: what's next? Pumping 707 horsepower into the Challenger seemed so crazy - and so intoxicating - we just assumed that Dodge would try that trick again.
Rumors swirled about a Charger Hellcat. Frankly it makes even more sense than the Challenger version. The Charger is a bigger car, and Dodge has never been shy about dropping monster engines under its hood. Hell (cat), we've seen Charger mules running around town that appeared to be the super sedan.
And finally, it's here. The 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat was revealed today at a preview event near Detroit, and it will be a centerpiece of the Chrysler display this weekend at the Woodward Dream Cruise.
