1965 Chrysler Imperial Crown 6.8l on 2040-cars
Milton, Massachusetts, United States
|
Very beautiful 1965 Chrysler Imperial Crown Convertible. Drives and runs great, looks great as well. Custom paint done about 12 years ago, a stunning deep maroon with a clear coat finish. A nice tan convertible top and matching interior. All was redone about 12 years ago by the previous owner. I have had the engine rebuilt, and the transmission serviced and the whole car overall gone over. It really is a great car and I do not have issues driving it anywhere. It is not a perfect car however. There are some issues, there is one chip of paint missing from the hood. The only other issues that I am aware of have to do with the dashboard. The gear shift indicator and speedometer do not work. The speedometer needs to have the grease removed from the maqnet is what I am told. The gear shift indicator seems a bit more complicated. Other than that, the heat and ac have been disconnected and I have never had that addressed. The fan however does work. Also the antenna needs to be replaced and a window button does as well. This car is definitely a head turner. It has been used in a number of parades and weddings. It spends most of its time in a garage and is not used much more at all. The interior and the carpets are in excellent condition, as is the top and the rear window. The top goes up and down very nicely. The whiskers in the passenger windows needs to be replaced as well. The ride is very smooth and luxurious. The car is also very peppy and fast. It is a very heavy vehicle and handles itself very well. |

Chrysler to accelerate production of 2013 Ram and V6 engines
Fri, 16 Nov 2012Chrysler is adding a third shift at its Warren Truck plant to meet demand for the new 2013 Ram pickup. And with tight supplies of its Pentastar V6, the company is also boosting output at its Mack Engine plant.
The expansions will add 1,250 jobs and are part of a $238 million investment by Chrysler in the Detroit area. Warren's third shift will begin work sometime in the spring, a Chrysler rep told Automotive News. Mack's increased Pentastar production a could include both 3.6 and 3.2-liter engines.
The company says it also plans to invest $40 million in its Trenton Engine plant to allow for production of a 3.2-liter V6 as well as the Tigershark inline-four for the upcoming Jeep Liberty replacement.
Chrysler and Hyundai join Pepsi and Coke as top Super Bowl spenders [w/ video]
Thu, 23 Jan 2014Super Bowl XLVIII is barely a week away, and some of the early ads are already leaking out. It's timely then that The Street has released rankings of the top five Super Bowl advertisers since 2009, showing Chrysler and Hyundai/Kia taking two of the spots with $131.7 million in cumulative spending.
Since 2010, the cost to air a 30-second Super Bowl ad has risen from $3 million in 2009 to about $4 million in 2014, and about a fifth of advertisers opt for a one-minute ad, which doubles costs. Last year, the ads brought in $292 million, and they have brought in roughly $2 billion since 2010.
Chrysler has spent $64.3 million since 2009 to make it the fourth highest spending company in the last five years. In that time, the company has rebranded itself as it emerged from bankruptcy with the Imported from Detroit ad campaign that premiered in 2011 and last year's God Made a Farmer Ram Trucks ad. Its 2012 Halftime in America sparked national debate about whether it was also a reference to the upcoming presidential election.
Chrysler recalling nearly half a million vehicles with active head restraints
Thu, 04 Jul 2013Chrysler has announced that it will recall roughly 490,000 vehicles around the globe due to a potential active head-restraint problem. The problem is being blamed on "potentially faulty microcontrollers" that may keep the vehicles' anti-whiplash active safety feature from working properly. Chrysler says it has no knowledge of any accidents or injuries related to the issue. Models covered under the recall include the 2011-2013 Chrysler Sebring, 200 (shown) and Dodge Avenger models, along with 2011-2013 Jeep Liberty and 2011-2012 Dodge Nitro SUVs.
Interestingly, the Pentastar notes that the faulty part came from an (unnamed) supplier who furnished the parts in the wake of Japan's 2011 earthquake and tsunami, natural disasters which decimated the world's supply of microcontrollers.
Chrysler says of those nearly half a million vehicles affected, around 442,000 of them reside in the US, with an additional 25,000 in Canada and 10,000 units in Mexico. A further 12,000 models were shipped beyond the NAFTA region. The Auburn Hills automaker will begin sending out recall notices shortly, and technicians will upgrade the system software or replace the microcontroller as necessary at no cost to owners.
