I am selling my 1937 Chrysler Imperial C-14 Touring Sedan. There were only 11,976 of these cars produced. It has the 274 Cubic Inch straight 8 rated at 110 H.P. The car only has a couple of thousand miles on it after a ground up restoration. I purchased the car from the daughter of the guy who purchased it in2007 from a wrecking yard, he passed away a few years ago and his daughter took it over, it sat around for a few years in a storage shed. I bought it about a year ago and brought it back to life. I have a CD that has about 200 pictures of the car from the day it was bought up through the process until it was finished. I will include some of the pictures in my add.

I will go through and explain as many things as I can that I have done to the car since purchasing it, I'm sure I will forget a bunch. I have all of the receipts for the work the gentleman did and also all of my receipts.The car has new glass and rubber all the way around, I have the old glass if anyone would like it. I just had the bumpers,the bumperettes and the trunk hinges rechromed in February ( not cheap, but they look awesome ). The car had the motor, trans and differential completely rebuilt and in the last couple of months every oil on the car has been drained and replaced, new antifreeze, new belt, the generator was rebuilt last month and the 6 volt battery is brand new. It has newer brakes and brake fluid, rebuilt original Stromberg carb.

It has the original 3 speed transmission with the factory overdrive, the car cruises at 65 M.P.H effortlessly. It has the roll out windshield I had every gauge rebuilt to keep it all original,every gauge and light work including the rare factory electric clock. As you can see from the pictures the spare tire is brand new and all 4 Firestone tires on the car are pretty much new. I have some spare paint left over and made myself some touch up bottles and quite a few extra original parts. There is also quite a bit of spare fabric and carpet left over.

This car really does run and drive beautifully, it's definitely one you could jump in and drive right now, it needs nothing.

I will leave the shipping up to the new buyer but I will help any way I can. If the car is sold I would like to have a $500.00 deposit as soon as possible and then settle up the rest as quickly as we could.

Please feel free to call me with any questions, Ron @ 435-339-9010. Thanks for looking.

Junkyard Gem: 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser Convertible Conversion

Sat, Mar 5 2022

Chrysler started selling PT Cruisers for the 2001 model year, and these "trucks" (yes, they were considered trucks for American regulatory purposes) proved quite popular for at least the first half of the 2000s. A factory-built version with a convertible top appeared for 2005 (and later "won" the Top Gear Worst Car of the Last 20 Years award), but what about the PT Cruiser shoppers who wanted a drop-top before then? It turns out the aftermarket had the solution: the Newport Convertible Engineering conversion, which took new PT Cruisers and added a fully functioning convertible top. According to a discussion on Allpar, 54 of these conversions were performed, and I found one of them in a Denver-area self-service yard last month. Newport Convertible Engineering is still around, though they're in Huntington Beach instead of Placentia these days. If you want a Tesla Model S or Range Rover convertible, they'll build it for you. The NCE conversion for the PT Cruiser cost $9,900 (about $15,715 in 2022 dollars) plus the $17,000 sticker price of a new PT Cruiser, and included the needed chassis-stiffening modifications and a shortened, hydraulically-actuated rear hatch. The materials used look pretty good, even after 20 years of abuse and neglect. This one had the convertible mechanism ziptied shut in many locations when I found it. Naturally, I cut all those zipties to see if the roof mechanism still worked. It was very, very stiff but proved semi-functional (the zipties appeared to be an attempt to keep a faulty latch mechanism from letting the roof pop open at speed). The roof assembly weighs a lot, though you could spend an extra $3,000 to get a power-actuation system from NCE. This cab must have been extremely noisy and buffety with the top down at speed, but so what? Convertibles are cool. Mechanically, it's an ordinary Touring Edition with a Neon's 2.4-liter four-cylinder making 150 horsepower. You could get a PT Cruiser with a five-speed manual transmission, and many did, but this one has the extra-cost automatic. Starting in the 2003 model year, a 215-horse turbocharged engine became available. Rare, but not valuable. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

470,000 Jeep Liberty, Chrysler 200, and Dodge Avenger models recalled for restraint defect

Sat, Oct 14 2017

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles said on Friday it is recalling 470,000 vehicles worldwide to replace a component that may inhibit deployment of the vehicles' active head restraints in the event of a crash. Around 414,000 of those vehicles were sold in the United States. Apparently, "a component common to the modules of certain vehicles may degrade after extensive vehicle use." The recall covers 2012 Jeep Liberty sport utility vehicles and 2012-13 Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger midsize cars. FCA says a warning light may alert owners to the problem. The Italian-American automaker said it is unaware of any injuries or accidents related to the recall. The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened an investigation into the issue in June. (Reporting by David Shepardson; Editing by Steve Orlofsky) Related Video:

Mike Manley named CEO of FCA amid Sergio Marchionne health crisis

Sat, Jul 21 2018

Mike Manley has been immediately granted "all the powers of CEO" of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. In a statement, FCA said its Board of Directors made this decision "in order to provide for his full authority and operational continuity for the company." Manley, who has been at the helm of Jeep since 2009 and Ram since 2015, is expected to be named an executive director for FCA after the next shareholder's meeting. In a similar statement, Ferrari said it had "named John Elkann as Chairman and will propose to Shareholders, at a meeting to be called in the coming days, that Louis C. Camilleri be named as CEO." CNH Industrial, a company that makes trucks, agricultural, and industrial equipment and which Marchionne also chairs, named Suzanna Heywood, as his replacement. Sergio Marchionne, who had served as CEO of both FCA and Ferrari, suffered "unexpected complications" as he was recovering from surgery performed earlier this month. FCA's statement adds that these complications "have worsened significantly in recent hours." Marchionne, credited with rescuing Fiat and Chrysler from bankruptcy since taking the wheel at the Italian carmaker in 2004, had been due to step down as the head of Fiat Chrysler next April. His internal successor had yet to be named. Marchionne had previously said he planned to stay on as Ferrari Chairman and CEO until 2021.Reuters contributed to this report.Related Video: Image Credit: Mark Thompson/Getty Hirings/Firings/Layoffs Chrysler Ferrari Fiat Sergio Marchionne
