A 1973 Chrysler Imperial Lebaron! 

I cannot over state how CLEAN this classic is! 

This car was special ordered in 1973 for Sen. Sam Ervin of North Carolina. If you are from the south especially that name is well known. A long story short- Watergate hearings had begun and Sen. Ervin was to preside over those hearings. He called the dealership where he had ordered the car and told them he was unable to pick the car up. Later on as he was unable to make it back to NC he sent a friend to pick the car up for him and the friend titled the car in his (being the friends name). The Imperial never made it to Sen. Ervin because he passed before he was able to take possession of it. The colors were his choice, black and white. He had good taste! 

I know you may be saying hummmm really? Yes, really! I do not have any proof for this but word of mouth and in my town everyone knows the story is true! 

Now to the car.

It is the last year of the BIG body style Imperial and also the last year for the 440 engine in it.
The car has NO rust or paint blemish anywhere on it. All of the leather is plush, soft and in tact. No rips, tars,or stitching loose. The car has 65,763 miles on it. This is the original miles.

The car has every option available in 1973 for this car. 
-Electric seats and windows (all work).  
-Factory A/C (works great)
-Hide away lights (work well)
-Factory radio (works)
-All gauges work
Tires are in great shape as is the whole car!  

Please call me at 828-467-3369 if you have any questions.

*The car is for sale locally as well and I reserve the right to end the auction if it sells.
*If you bid, PLEASE be prepared to buy.

Chrysler recalling 780k minivans over fire risk

Fri, 09 May 2014

Chrysler is recalling 780,000 of its Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans from the 2010 to 2014 model years due to the possibility of circuits overheating, which can lead to a fire. Of the 780,000 total vans being recalled, Chrysler estimates that 644,850 are in the US, 106,980 are in Canada, 8,009 are in Mexico, and 20,638 are in other markets. All of the affected vehicles were built between August 25, 2010 and October 31, 2013.
Chrysler's engineers discovered that beverage spills or exposure to moisture (from rain, snow, car washes, and the like) were linked to circuits shorting in the window switch assembly. Short circuits can overheat, and thus, cause a fire.
Chrysler will contact owners and let them know when they may schedule service, at which point, the window switches will be replaced. In the interim, the automaker says that owners may visit their dealers after May 14 to have the switches disconnected.
