Up for auction is my 1965 Chrysler Newport coupe.  A 99% all-original car!  Unrestored cars are all the rage right now, so here's your chance to own one.  Below are the descriptions for all areas - feel free to ask questions.

   BODY:  super straight,  with original white paint, which is very thin on roof, hood, & trunk lid.  Some areas have tiny pinprick size dots of surface rust.  The only rust holes in this car are one that's in the trunk (see photo of my hand pointing to it), and a small area on driver's floor (also shown in photo)  Both are easily fixable.
  Hood opens & closes perfectly, as does the trunk. Both doors are solid, no sagging hinges.
  All stainless steel trim is near perfect; the only dent being on the rocker below driver's door.  The only piece that is missing on this car is a 2" long rocker trim, that is actually on the right side fender skirt.  Chrome bumpers are straight & not dented, but front bumper has a one area of flaked-off chrome, which shows as surface rust.  Grill is immaculate!
  Glass is all good, with one small chip in windshield. Window mechanisms need lubed on 3 windows.
  INTERIOR: Original white vinyl, with rips/seam splits on front seat (thus the cover) Back seat has a few split seams too.  Headliner is brand new, as is package shelf. Black vinyl dash is near perfect also.  Original carper it pretty much shot. Door panels look pretty good, but have wear marks on driver's door.
  All electrical stuff works great, except radio: light comes on, but no sound.  Map light needs new bulb.  Inside glove compartment on door, is the original service tag, with the date  6-11-65 written in delivery box!  Very cool !  Wipers, lights, gas gauge,  horn, turn signals - including indicator lights on front fenders - all work fine.
  ENGINE:  Runs strong & perfect! Has new alternator, belt, new valve cover gaskets, spark plugs, just rebuilt carb, voltage regulator, new fuel pump, and air filter.  This car runs super - when you step on the gas, it jumps!
  DRIVE  TRAIN: 3-spd 727 auto tranny shifts perfectly, and I had a new idler arm installed.  Tires are one year old radials with only 5,000 miles on them.

   Please note the beautiful wheel covers with spinners, original with this car.  These are some of the best you'll see!

  This is a really great old car, that could use some cosmetics to be really nice, or just drive it as it is.  but be sure your garage is long enough: bumper to bumper measures 18'-2"   !!  They don't build them like this anymore....

  Any questions, please email or call.  My home phone (eves/weekends) is 541-726-8467.  Weekdays is 541-285-7859

Shipping:  Please get your own quotes, as there are far too many companies with lots of prices.  I will work with the driver on this end, and be available to load it at the pick-up area 3 miles from my house.

Good luck bidding!

Ferrari raises $893M, valued at $12B

Wed, Oct 21 2015

Ferrari's stock is moving as quickly on the New York Stock Exchange as the brand's iconic sports cars do on the road. The company's incredibly popular initial public offering has already raised $893.1 million by virtue of 17.18 million shares sold for $52 apiece. If the deal's underwriters buy in as well, the figure would grow to $982.4 million. Plus, even after shouldering some of FCA's debt, the automaker carries an enterprise value of $12 billion, Bloomberg reports. Just as the company starts trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the share price is already racing upward, too. As of this writing, Ferrari stock, which is listed under the symbol RACE, is priced at $57.59. At its high so far today, the value reached as high as $60.95. While Ferrari is looking strong, the big winner in this success looks to be FCA because the company should raise $4 billion in the spin-off, according to Bloomberg. With nine percent of the sports car maker on the NYSE and one percent for the underwriters, another 80 percent will be distributed to FCA investors in 2016. When that's through, Exor, the holding company for the Agnelli/Elkann family, should have the largest stake at about 30 percent. Piero Ferrari holds the remaining 10 percent and has no intention to sell it. Related Video: FCA Announces Pricing of Initial Public Offering of Ferrari N.V. Common Shares Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V. (NYSE: FCAU/MI: FCA) ("FCA") and its subsidiary Ferrari N.V. ("Ferrari") announce today the pricing of Ferrari's initial public offering of 17,175,000 common shares at an offering price of $52 per share for a total offering size of $893.1 million ($982.4 million if the underwriters exercise the option described below in full). The shares are expected to begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange on Wednesday, October 21, 2015, under the symbol "RACE", and closing of the offering is expected to occur on October 26, 2015. In addition, the underwriters have a 30-day option to purchase an aggregate of up to 1,717,150 common shares of Ferrari from FCA. The offering is intended to be part of a series of transactions to separate Ferrari from FCA. Following completion of this offering, FCA expects to distribute its remaining ownership interest in Ferrari to FCA shareholders at the beginning of 2016. UBS Investment Bank is acting as Global Coordinator for the offering.

Italian government to lean on Fiat's Marchionne to commit to country

Sun, 26 May 2013

With the recent chatter that Fiat is looking to move its global headquarters to the US following a complete merger with Chrysler, the Italian government is voicing its opinion on the matter. Facing the potential job loss from the automaker leaving the country, Italy's industry minister is meeting with Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne in what will likely be a plea to keep the company based in Turin rather than moving to Auburn Hills, MI - if indeed it is able to acquire the additional 41.5 percent of Chrysler currently owned by the United Auto Workers.
According to Bloomberg, Fiat is Italy's biggest private employer and unemployment is already nearing a 20-year high. The non-car side of Fiat, Fiat Industrial, is already planning a move to the UK, so it goes without saying that Fiat moving would be a pretty big blow for the Italian economy. In the article, Fiat says that the headquarters issue is "not on its agenda now," but that statement is far from a denial.

Moon landing anniversary: How Detroit automakers won the space race

Fri, Jul 19 2019

America's industrial might — automakers included — determined the outcome of the 20th centuryÂ’s biggest events. The “Arsenal of Democracy” won World War II, and then the Cold War. And our factories flew us to the moon. Apollo was a Cold War program. You can draw a direct line from Nazi V-2 rockets to ICBMs to the Saturn V. The space race was a proxy war — which beats a real war. It was a healthy outlet for technology and testosterone that would otherwise be used for darker purposes. (People protested, and still do, that money for space should go to problems here on Earth, but more likely the military-industrial complex would've just bought more bombs with it.) As long as we and the Soviet Union were launching rockets into space, we were not lobbing them at each other. JFKÂ’s challenge to “go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard,” put American industry back on a war footing. We were galvanized to beat the Russians, to demonstrate technological dominance. (A lack of similar unifying purpose is why we havenÂ’t been to the moon since, or Mars.) NASA says more than 400,000 Americans, from scientists to seamstresses, toiled on the moon program, working for government or for 20,000 contractors. Antagonism was diverted into something inspirational. The Big Three automakers were some of the biggest companies in the moon program, which might surprise a lot of people today. Note to a new generation who marveled when SpaceX launched a Tesla Roadster out into the solar system: Sure, that was neat, but just know that Detroit beat Elon Musk to space by more than half a century. This high point in human history was brought to you by Ford ItÂ’s hard to imagine in this era of Sony-LG-Samsung, but Ford used to make TVs. And other consumer appliances. Or rather Philco, the radio, TV and transistor pioneer that Ford bought in 1961 — the year Gagarin and Alan Shepard flew in space. Ted Ryan, FordÂ’s archives and heritage brand manager, just wrote a Medium article on the central role Philco-Ford played in manned spaceflight. And nothingÂ’s more central than Mission Control in Houston, the famous console-filled room we all know from TV and movies. What we didn't know was, that was Ford. Ford built that. In 1953, Ryan notes, Philco invented a transistor that was key to the development of (what were then regarded as) high-speed computers, so naturally Philco became a contractor for NASA and the military.
