This is a rare 1967 Chrysler Imperial convertible, 1 of 577 made, in very good shape considering its age. It runs well and shifts great. Its numbers matching with a 440 motor and a 727 transmission. Both the motor and the transmission were rebuilt by the previous owner. I have the receipts for verification. It has original California black plates, a clear title, and current registration. A friend of mine who is a Mopar lover and researcher told me that this is the only year you will find "IMPERIAL" in individual letters on the front grill, the first year for the unibody, and the last year for this 440 motor design. This is a true luxury car from its era. Unfortunately, I am unable to dedicate the time to complete this car due to other projects. I am reluctant but willing to let it go. This car has unbelievable potential!! Whoever is willing to put in the effort will surely reap the obvious benefits. Also, you are likely to be the only one at a car show or cruise night with this one. Park next to a convertible Cadillac and I bet you will draw a bigger crowd. This car has the original convertible top that works as do all the power windows and seats. I have been under this car and there is no rot or cancer that I can see. There is rot at the bottom of the battery tray which can be resolved with the simple replacement of the battery tray. The power steering pump leaks and I have an extra power steering pump that also leaks. The horn works occasionally and the instrument panel light switch is worn out. There is some body damage that was repaired above the rear passenger side tire. The bodywork appears to have been done by an amateur, but it's nothing that an experienced auto body specialist can't fix. The car also had a paint job, again probably done by an amateur. There are some visible paint chips and a large chip on top of the passenger door. I will send you additional photos upon request. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a rare classic beauty. I have it listed for a Buy it Now price of $13,000, which I believe is a fair price from what I've seen. This car is being sold "as is," with no warranties and/or guaranties. The buyer is responsible for pick up or all shipping costs. I will assist you in any way that I can. I prefer a deposit via PayPal within 24 hrs. and the remainder in cash payment. I have the car listed locally, so I will end the auction early if need be. I encourage you to call or text me, and I will be happy to answer any questions you may have. The best time to reach me is between 4:30 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. (pst) during the week and anytime on the weekends. If I don't answer, just leave a message and I will respond as soon as I'm able. Thank you, Patrick 951-757-3500.

GM, Chrysler bailouts saved 2.6 million jobs
Tue, 10 Dec 2013
The Center for Automotive Research (CAR) has been studying the effects of the General Motors and Chrysler bailouts in 2009. Now that the US Treasury has officially sold off the rest of its stake in GM (and Chrysler has already paid back its loan), CAR has released its study on the effects of the bailout with this concluding note: "CAR is confident that in the years ahead, this peacetime intervention in the private sector by the US government will be seen as one of the most successful in US economic history."
Big words, for sure, but there's plenty of evidence to back up the claim. Bailing out GM alone saved 1.2-million jobs. If both GM and Chrysler hadn't been bailed out, US employment would have been reduced by 2.631-million jobs in 2009 and another 1.519-million jobs in 2010, according to the study. If both automakers were allowed to fail, personal income in the US would have decreased by $173.5 billion in 2009 and $110.9 billion in 2010. Instead, the study found that $284.4 billion of personal income was saved by the bailouts.
Fiat ups Chrysler stake by 3.3%, inches closer to full control
Mon, 08 Jul 2013Fiat is one step closer to completing a merger with Chrysler after exercising an option to acquire an additional 3.3 percent of the Auburn Hills-based automaker today. Automotive News reports that Fiat now controls 68.49-percent of Chrysler, which is up almost 10 percent since we last heard news of this deal back in February when Fiat talking to various banks to raise more capital in order to complete the acquisition.
The article says that Fiat is still able to increase its stake in Chrysler up to 75 percent over the next 12 months, but it sounds like CEO Sergio Marchinonne would rather purchase the remaining shares from VEBA - the retiree benefits trust - sooner rather than later. Unfortunately, the two sides still seem far from an agreement on a fair price for the rest of Chrysler, as Fiat has them valued at $4.2 billion compared to the $10.3 billion estimate from the unions that currently own the remaining stake in Chrysler.
Chrysler recalling over 280k minivans because airbags may deploy on wrong side
Mon, 08 Jul 2013Chrysler has issued a recall for some 2013 Town & Country, Dodge Grand Caravan and Ram C/V Tradesman vans built between May 10, 2012 and June 7, 2013. These vehicles may have a software error that would cause the wrong side (opposite side) airbags to deploy in a crash. With this defect, a left-side impact would cause the right-side airbag to deploy, etc.
The recall affects 281,500 vehicles in total: 224k in the US, 49,300 in Canada, 2,900 in Mexico and 5,300 in other locations. Chrysler will notify owners of effected vehicles, and reflash the offending occupant restraint control module to resolve the issue.
