1979 Chrysler 300 9,8xx Miles T-tops (2) on 2040-cars
O'Fallon, Missouri, United States
|
Two 1979 300's for sale. One is a good survivor, other would need a complete restoration.
I'm the original owner of this 1979 Chrysler 300. It has 9,8xx miles and still has the original window sticker stuck to the window. Have all original paperwork from when I bought it (broadcast sheet, title, inspections etc). It has the original drivetrain in it and runs and drives fine. Always wins trophys when we take it to shows. The interior is in good shape overall. Some of the door panels and trim pieces have faded, which is very common on these cars(I have two more). But this has not gone more than around the block or on and off the trailer at car shows. So this wouldn't be a car to buy, fly in and drive it home. I would definitely trailer it as it has most of the original fluids and the original tires. Has a ding here and there and a nickel sized surface rust spot as shown in the pictures by the rear window. Front end was repainted in the early 2000's. The undercarriage has some surface rust, but has no soft spots or holes anywhere on the car. One of the front tires has a cut on the side, but could probably be switched with the spare tire. Some pitting on chrome in spots. Has new exhaust on it and an aftermarket stereo head unit. Other than that, it's original. (pictures available of everything) The second one that goes with this is a 2 fender tag 1979 300. There was another one at the Mopar Nationals that claimed only 321 were made with t-tops. It is loaded with just about every option (power windows, t-tops, power locks, etc). It needs a new trunk floor, interior redone, quarter panel work, motor redone, possibly transmission, and other spots which have rust. Driver fender needs work/replaced. Needs a COMPLETE restoration. Clean title though. $500 non-refundable deposit is due within 48 hours after the end of the auction. Cars must be picked up and fully paid for within 14 days after the end of auction, unless otherwise discussed. Car will be paid in full before it leaves my possession. Cash, paypal(and you take the fee's), or wire the money to my bank account. Can help with loading. Any questions, feel free to email me on here and I will get back asap. If you want more pictures just ask, I have over 100 showing all imperfections, top, bottom, everything. I've sold two cars on here in the past year($6,500 and $12,500) and bought one 2.5 years ago ($30K) and still have perfect feedback. |

How fracking is causing Chrysler minivans to sit on Detroit's riverfront
Fri, 25 Apr 2014It's fascinating the way that one change to a complex system can have all sorts of unintended consequences. For instance, there are hundreds of new Chrysler Town and County and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans built in Windsor, Ontario, sitting in lots on the Detroit waterfront because of the energy boom in the Bakken oil field in the northern US and parts of Canada.
The huge amount of crude oil coming from these sites mostly use freight trains for transport, and that supply boom has resulted in a shortage of railcars to carry other goods. According to The Windsor Star, North American crude oil transport by train has gone from 9,500 carloads in 2008 to 434,032 carloads in 2013. Making matters worse, some North American rail infrastructure is still damaged because of this year's harsh winter, and that's slowing things down even further.
Chrysler admits to The Star that it has had some delivery delays due to the freight train shortage. In the meantime, it's using more trucks to deliver its vehicles. Trucking is a far less economical solution, partially because a train can carry so many more units at one time, but alternatives are slim. The Windsor plant alone has a deal for 33 trucks to distribute the minivans around Canada and the Midwestern US.
Dodge to resurrect Scat Pack?
Fri, 27 Sep 2013Before social media ever existed, if automotive enthusiasts wanted to be noticed or recognize other fans, they joined a car club. For Dodge muscle car lovers from 1968 through 1971, that group was known as the Scat Pack. Just like the Charger, Challenger and Dart nameplates, it looks like the Scat Pack could be getting a resurrection by Chrysler.
Automotive News is reporting that Chrysler recently renewed its trademark on the Scat Pack name, and while this is in no way a guarantee that the name will return, AN talked to Tim Kuniskis, Dodge President and CEO, who stoked the fire a little more. In the article, Kuniskis said that the name is "a very important part of our history" and added that "we like the whole idea of having a Scat Pack of cars." Scat Pack models were identified by their bumblebee stripes and helmet-wearing bumblebee logo, and the idea of a modern Scat Pack doesn't seem all that outlandish in light of recent vehicles like the Charger SRT Super Bee and the Ram 1500 Rumble Bee Concept.
What do you think, is this a cool idea, or is it just an unwelcome bit of nostalgia? Have you say in Comments.
Chrysler's completely redesigned 200 caught totally uncovered
Fri, 13 Dec 2013Preparing for a big debut at the Detroit Auto Show next month, the all-new 2015 Chrysler 200 was out for a late-night photo shoot fully undisguised, and our spy shooters were there to capture its all-new design completely uncovered. While there's no camouflage, the cover of darkness proved to be almost as effective, but we still get a good idea of what this former sore spot in the brand's lineup will look like after its clean-sheet redesign.
The first thing we notice is the stylish four-door-coupe roofline doing its best to impersonate something like the Audi A7, or maybe the Volkswagen CC. The front-end styling is a departure from recent Chrysler designs with narrow headlights and an equally short, chrome-trimmed grille. In profile, the bullet-nosed 200 is somewhat reminiscent of the Tesla Model S. This new design language should definitely help the 200 get noticed in a segment filled with hot sellers like the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord, as well as more stylish offerings like the Ford Fusion and Mazda6.
Our spies also caught up with the 200 testing in daylight and got some good shots of the interior. The instrument panel design looks similar to what is found in the Dodge Dart, including the oversized instrument gauges and possibly even the LED accent lighting. We would have to assume - and hope - this prototype is a test model due to its small touchscreen display, as Chrysler's 8.4-inch screen would look much better in its place. The center stack and console are clean with minimal buttons and knobs, but we do see a rotary gear selector, which may confirm reports from last year that suggested the 200 will use a nine-speed automatic transmission to help hit 38 miles per gallon on the highway.
