PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION, I AM BEING AS HONEST AS POSSIBLE DESCRIBING THE IMPERIAL. Vehicle is sold AS-IS without warranty of any kind. Inspections are welcome. VIN YM41K73204006 decoded-----> Y-Imperial, M-Crown, 4-#of doors, 1-Sedan, K-440 engine, 7-1967, 3-Jefferson Plant, 204006-serial number. Driver quality Imperial, 1 of 2193 Sedans built in 1967. Total Imperial production in 1967: 14,391. This car was purchased new in Oxnard, CA apparently it has spent it's entire life on the west coast. NO RUST. Nice straight body, with a fresh BLACK paint job, probably considered a '10 footer'. Clear coat was peeling from a previous paint job. Check out the pictures. This one has the Crown trim package, factory A/C is all there (needs work and charging) but the compressor is free and the clutch cycles when powered directly. Original 440 engine with factory AFB carb,cold blooded but runs smooth when warmed up. New battery. Fresh spark plugs, wires, cap rotor and points. Non-factory dual exhaust with new mufflers. Looks like the transmission has been rebuilt (has rebuilder tag) and I assume it is the original trans. Mileage shows 94XXX, but I can't confirm it's not 194XXX. Just replaced the strut rod bushings along with sway bar end bushings, also installed HD rear shocks. Rear cross (panhard?) bar needs new bushings. 1967 was first year to have disc brakes. First year without a frame, has 'uni-body' construction. Drives well, (for a 46 year old car) just replaced all 4 tires (with Hankooks). All 4 hubcaps included as well as proper spare and bumper jack. Trunk is huge and has newer carpeting and spare tire cover. Trunk light works. The trunk has a vacuum operated release, push button is in glove box. Brakes function, not real touchy, I have replaced the master cylinder. 3 of 4 door windows operate (I think the window switches need cleaning), both vent windows (electric) need work, but you can hear the motors. All glass is in great condition. All the trim (except the hood eagle) is there and in good condition. All the gauges work, speedometer works as does the odometer. The trip odometer does not. Factory radio missing and the plate had been opened to accept a new (rectangle) style radio, so that's what is filling the space. Electric antenna works when powered directly, (no power to switch?). Has the 'tilt-telescopic' steering wheel. Head and tail lights work, but no dash lights ( I think it's the dimmer switch) the turn signals work if you hold the lever in position (the cancel cam is broken) all door courtesy lights and the overhead dome light work. The 2 rear seat reading lights do not work. Interior is nice, (needs a good cleaning) door panels, carpet and headliner are nice. All the walnut trim needs refreshing, but it's all there. Needs door weather stripping. All around it's a nice car needing TLC and patience to get all the finicky interior electrical gremlins in order. Comes with a reprinted service manual and numerous spare interior trim pieces. Has California 'black' plates and is registered current. Clear title in my name. Car is in So-California, Riverside County, (easy access to I-10 and State Hwy 60) I can help coordinating with your shipper after cleared and complete payment. No 'shipper over-payment' scams please. Call me at (909) 747-7730 or use the 'ask a question' feature. The vehicle is being sold AS-IS, NO WARRANTY of any kind. PLEASE HAVE YOUR FINANCES IN ORDER PRIOR TO THE END OF THE AUCTION. SHIPPING IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. ---> $250 non-refundable deposit via PayPal within 48 hours of auction end.<--- Full payment due within 7 days. No shipper 'over payment' scams. CASH or legit Cashier's Check. See payment info below. Vehicle will not be released until payment has cleared. Relisted due to non pay bidder. During the last auction several Imperial officiandos noticed that the rear window was smaller than those normally found in sedan models. Apparently the window as not an option offered in 1967. The window was available on the LeBaron model. The story I got (unconfirmed by any paperwork) when I acquired the Imperial was that it was a Federal Govt purchase for 'embassy service' and that the govt would not buy hardtops in the 60's. I was told this car was pulled off the assembly line and completely repainted black (from light blue?) at the factory. Again none of this was backed up with any paperwork. If the story is correct then it would follow that the smaller window was installed at that time. (here's a regular rear window pic: http://www.imperialclub.com/Yr/1967/SpottersGuide/rear.jpg ) The headliner and window surround look like a factor install to me, there are also 2 reading lights in the rear seat area that are usually only found on LeBarons. Make up your own mind on this story, I make NO claims of it's veracity. NO RESERVE. HIGH BIDDER WINS----> Check out NADA values. http://www.nadaguides.com/Classic-Cars/1967/Chrysler/Imperial/4-Door-Sedan/Values NO RESERVE. I was questioned about the seats in this car. I did some research and found they are indeed proper for this car. If you look on the fender tag under TRM you see M1D which translates to Blue cloth and vinyl. Scroll down here---> http://automotivemileposts.com/imperial1967interiortrim.html These same seats (50-50) were covered in leather as an option on the Crown Hardtops. The passenger side reclines, and both sides have a drop down armrest independent of each other. The back seat has a single, larger armrest in the center. Both seats are electric, and the wiring looks factory to me, (each side has a separate power connection) and each are controlled independent of the other. I MAKE NO CLAIM THAT THIS CAR IS A 'ONE OFF' IMPERIAL, BUT IT DOES SEEM TO HAVE MORE OPTIONS THAN USUALLY FOUND ON THE SEDANS. I'VE ALSO BEEN ASKED IF IT CAME WITH A VINYL TOP. I DON'T KNOW! ---> IF IT EVERY HAD ONE, SOMEONE DID AN EXCELLENT JOB OF REMOVAL. Use your best judgement as to the rarity (or lack there of) regarding this Imperial Sedan. I have passed on all the info I have. Car is being sold AS-IS without any warranty. |

Fiat to list on New York Stock Exchange?
Mon, 06 Jan 2014Citing the ever-nebulous "two sources close to Fiat," Reuters is reporting that the Italian automaker and owner of the Chrysler brand is likely to list itself on the New York Stock Exchange. The move could reportedly happen as soon as 2015, marking the end, at least in the minds of investors, of Fiat's 115-year base in Turin, Italy.
The Italian government is not likely to react favorably to Fiat's potential move from Italy to the United States, despite initially positive reactions to Fiat's landmark final purchase of Chrysler, the third-largest automaker in the US. Fiat spent $3.65 billion to buy out the 41.46-percent stake in Chrysler that had been owned by the United Auto Workers' VEBA trust fund.
With little sign of a swift European recovery, Fiat has little choice but to focus on markets outside its traditional home, and a listing in New York could potentially be a boon for investors. According to International Strategy and Investment analyst George Galliers, speaking to Reuters, "People [would be] more likely to think of the entity in the same context as they do Ford and GM" if it were listed on the NYSE.
Mike Manley named CEO of FCA amid Sergio Marchionne health crisis
Sat, Jul 21 2018Mike 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
Chrysler taking big risk snubbing NHTSA
Wed, 05 Jun 2013Maker Insists Feds Overstate Risk Of Fires With Grand Cherokee, Liberty Models
It's not often that recall stories make it above the fold, in that old newspaper parlance, but when one shows up as the lead story on the network evening news programs, you know it's something big.
And so it is with Chrysler snubbing its nose at a request by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to recall 2.7 million Jeeps the feds insist are at risk of potentially catastrophic fuel tank fires in a rear-end collision.
