Bristol, Connecticut, United States

This car is part of my private collection.  The car is all original that I know of with the exception of the radio. The engine number does not match.  This car was completely restored in 1973 by a dealer in Connecticut.  There is no rot and is in actually in really good overall extremely solid condition. The rocker panels are great.  There were some paint bubbles that I sanded and primed over to preserve as you can see in the pics.  I have since buffed out the nose of the car and have included the after photos.  The car looks great just from what I did to the front nose since the primer spots are now down to a minimum.

Things that have been done to the car:  new clutch, pressure plate and throw out bearing, rebuilt master cylinder, new brakes and cylinders, fuel system cleaned.  The car was running, I have not started it in a while.  The body is straight, the doors close like butter and all the electrical is in tact.  All the glass is great, window cranks work.  The interior is in decent shape, the leather seats could use either replacing or some new stuffing, there are a couple of small tears.  The top has holes in it and will need replacing.  The tires and leather suspension straps need replacing.  All of the chrome pieces are on the car. Some dents on the grill. All can use a re-chroming.

The car looks great in person, its really dusty in the pics.  It has been sitting in dry storage.  Forgot to mention it was undercoated underneath in 1973, no rot there either.

A light restore for immediate driving or a further in depth restore for the articulate collector.  This car is an excellent candidate in exceptional condition, not like some of the other cars you see of the same year.  Overall with a bit of love and attention she could be a better gem than she already is.  Good Luck Bidding.

Please do not bid if you are not serious or if you have bad feedback.  I take pride in my 100% positive feedback.

The car is located in Bristol Connecticut.

Alfa Romeo to launch eight new products by 2018, increase sales to 400K units

Tue, 06 May 2014



Alfa Romeo will go back to being the brand people admire, according to CEO Harald Wester.
After a few streams of news on the various brands in the Fiat Chrysler family, here's the deluge we've been waiting for - Alfa Romeo. The legendary Italian brand is being pointed towards a renaissance, as shown by the brand's five-year plan.

Fiat Chrysler target 850k sales in China by 2018

Sun, 11 May 2014

Behind the vanguard of numerous Jeep models, two Chryslers, a smattering of Fiats and Alfa Romeos and local production through a joint venture with Guangzhou Automotive Group (GAG), Fiat Chrysler wants to increase sales in China more than six-fold by 2018. The group sold 130,000 cars in China in 2013, the aim for 2018 being 850,000 cars.
Ultimately it's expected that the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Cherokee, Wrangler, Renegade, the coming Grand Wagoneer and a sub-Renegade-sized crossover will either be built in or exported to the People's Republic. The Chrysler Town & Country and 300 will join the export list in 2016 and 2018 respectively, according to a report in Automotive News.
With a number of those vehicles not in production or perhaps even envisaged yet, and others not due on the local market until 2018, it will be interesting to see how Fiat Chrysler plans to achieve the target in the specified timeframe. The joint venture with GAG builds two products now, the Dodge Dart-based Fiat Viaggio launched two years ago - supposedly designed just for China - and the just-launched Fiat Ottimo, a hatchback version of the Viaggio. Fiat projected 300,000 Viagio sales in its first two years, that number has been adjusted downward to 94,000 and there doesn't appear to be an analyst alive that sees a good future for Fiat in China's overrun mainstream market. Still, last year's 130,000 group sales in China is a huge jump from 2012 sales of 66,000 units, but less than half the 300,000 units it projected.
