Minor bug/pebble chips on front around headlights, two scratches on rear bumper from loading trunk. No road rash on wheels. No tear or wear on any interior surface. Spot on trunk carpet lost some fiber (see picture)."

This auction is for one of the rarest PT Cruisers made, it is #1026 of 1543 made and is the only year that Chrysler used the convertible for one of their Dream Cruiser Series #1-5. This is the only time that the Deep Lava Red Pearlcoat paint was used and the only time the matching cloth top was used on a convertible or wagon. The 15 spoke cast wheels were the only wheels available on this edition and there is no road/curb rash on any of them. Chrysler used the Dream Cruisers to honor the annual Woodward Ave. Street Cruise Car Show and limited production to bring customers into the local showroom. They loaded these cars with the best they had to offer and every option they could stick on them.

In 2005 this car sold for over $30K, not just the window sticker, the actual selling price ( I have the original Sales Contract). I am the second owner, when I bought the car I was given the owner's file with all his maintenance records, oil changes, etc. The car was delivered new by Norman Chrysler-Plymouth in Norman, OK. The original owners used it as a "fun car" at their lake house in Eastern Oklahoma and traded it in at  small local dealer for a more "practical" car.

I bought this car because my wife liked it, she has driven it twice in 9 months and it has gone less than 400 miles since we brought it to Texas. It has not been driven in the snow (pretty rare around here) or the rain while we've had it. I'm all for keeping everyone happy but it is time for this car to find someone who is going to drive it and enjoy it. The car is as clean as it looks in the pictures, it has some road chips in the front from having been driven and there are 2 scratches (touched up) on the rear bumper where something was dragged out of the trunk. The tires are like new Pirellis at all 4 corners. We have both keys and remotes along with the Dream Cruiser floor mats and Dream Cruiser Series 4 embossed folder for the Owner's Manual and the other factory books. All maintenance records go with the car. The front bumper has not been drilled for a front plate so it is still intact. The factory convertible boot cover is still in its original plastic bag with the installation instructions inside.

This is a  opportunity to get a very rare, limited production car, unmolested fun to drive car. Both this car's were/are close to retirement and the condition reflects it. My loss will be your gain.

This is a used car and all warranties are expired. I will accept, cash, cashiers/bank check (will verify), wire transfer or PayPal, no personal checks.

Please contact me if any questions or additional info. needed. Good Bidding! No Reserve!

NHTSA closes book on Jeep 'trailer hitch' recall after all

Mon, 20 Jan 2014

After much debating and hand-wringing, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration now says it has "no reservations" with Chrysler's plan to recall certain Jeep Liberty and Grand Cherokee models over concerns that their fuel tanks, which are located behind the rear axle, could rupture or leak in the event of a rear impact. The longstanding argument between the two entities saw Chrysler openly defy the Feds after a request to recall 2.7 million units back in June.
Chrysler's "voluntary campaign" will instead see it recall 1.56-million 1993-2004 model year Grand Cherokee SUVs, along with 2002-2007 Liberty models. Affected vehicles will get a trailer hitch installed free of charge, which Chrysler says will provide an additional degree of protection for the fuel tanks in the event of a crash. Jeeps with Mopar-branded hitches or hitches that were installed at the factory aren't affected by this recall.
Chrysler's argument throughout this battle has been that the Jeeps in question are no more susceptible to fires than comparable vehicles from the same time period, a position that NHTSA has seemingly arrived at as well. "Those vehicles performed at a rate similar to their peers. That is the keystone analysis as to whether something poses an unreasonable risk to safety," said outgoing NHTSA boss David Strickland during an interview with the The Associated Press.

Chrysler names six new board directors

Mon, 16 Jun 2014

Executives may call the shots day-to-day at the world's leading automakers - much as they do at any other corporation - but the ultimate decision-making body remains the board of directors. And Chrysler has just named six new members to its board.
The appointments include Hermann Waldemer, the former CFO of Philip Morris International - the tobacco giant whose Marlboro brand has funneled untold billions into Ferrari as the Scuderia's title sponsor for decades, and on whose board Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne sits. Waldemer replaces Doug Steenland, who came to the Chrysler board after Northwest Airlines (at which he served as CEO) merged with Delta, and whose term on the board expired just days ago.
In addition to the Waldemer appointment, Chrysler has expanded its board with five more seats, all filled by existing group executives. Among them are Reid Bigland (head of US and Canadian sales and of the Ram truck brand), Fiat general counsel Giorgio Fossati, human resources director Michael J. Keegan, Jeep CEO Michael Manley, and group CFO Richard Palmer.

Jeep sets all-time sales record in 2012

Wed, 09 Jan 2013

Last year was good to Jeep. Chrysler has announced its trail-rated brand set an all-time global sales record in 2012 by moving 701,626 units. That number easily surpasses the previous record set in 1999 when Jeep sold 675,494 models. All told, the brand saw a 19-percent sales increase worldwide over 2011, and much of that swell can be traced directly to the Wrangler. While the Grand Cherokee led Jeep sales, the Wrangler posted record numbers both globally and within the US, moving 194,142 and 141,669 units in each market, respectively.
Meanwhile, the Compass beat its previous global sales record with 103,321 units rolling off of dealer lots. In the US, Jeep sold 62,010 Patriot units, breaking that model's previous record as well. Jeep's impressive performance in 2012 marks the second year in a row the brand has seen double-digit percentage sales increases. Check out the full press release below.
