Vehicle Condition

You are viewing a 1967 Chrysler Newport Convertible. This 1967 Chrysler convertible is a relatively rare car with only around 2800 produced. This is a very solid number 3 condition car that could be driven and enjoyed as is or restored all the way up to show level.  

Mechanically the car runs great and has lots of power!  It floats down the road effortlessly and is a real blast to drive!  Odometer displays 63,152 miles which appears to be original.  The fender tag and VIN plate are still intact. The car still retains its original factory 383 engine and drivetrain. It has a clean straight body but somewhat weak paint. Under-carriage appears solid, remnants of the original factory undercoating are still present. No visible rust in the fenders, doors, hood, deck lid, floors, trunkpan (very minor surface rust only). This Chrysler is well optioned with Power Steering, Power Disc Brakes, Power Windows, Power Top, Factory A/C, tinted glass windshield. The interior was recently re-finished in the correct factory material purchased from SMS Fabrics.

What it needs

Since the car spent many years in storage it needs the following:

AC charged

Power windows need to be serviced. 2 motors are good and 2 of the motors will need replacement.

Radio does not work (I think it is simply a fuse since it was recently working)

Paint – A good paint job would easily double the value of the car.

Work recently completed

Lots of $ have already been spent of this car. Recent restoration improvements include:

New Convertible Top Replacement in the Factory correct cologne grain pattern

New Rear “Glass” Window. (Just like the original factory install)

New Convertible Top Rubber Seals

New Convertible Top Latches

New Front Windshield

New Interior – Front and Back seats completed in the factory exact “Metallic Red” including the  correct “Cross-Hatch” pattern material specific to 1967 Newports and 300’s

Complete engine tune-up including new plugs, ignition cables, timing adjustment, etc.

New Carburetor & Fuel Pump

New Fuel Lines (Stainless Steel lines from fuel tank to fuel pump)

New replacement Fuel Tank & Straps

New Fuel Tank Sender

New Radiator

727 Automatic Transmission serviced and all seals replaced

New Automatic Transmission Lines (Stainless Steel)

Disc Brakes recently serviced (Stops great!!)

What the Chrysler 200 will probably look like in convertible form

Thu, 16 Jan 2014

Since 1996, Chrysler has offered a convertible version of its Sebring and 200. As this seems very unlikely to change, it's safe to assume that a new 200 Convertible is in the works following the unveiling of the radically redesigned sedan. What it will look like, though, remains an open question.
Traditionally, the only major styling differences between the Sebring/200 Convertible and the sedan were found above the beltline. It's likely a 2016 200 Convertible would follow a similar philosophy, especially considering the dashing good looks of the redesigned sedan.
Artist Theophilus Chin has a similar idea, as shown in a pair of renderings he's released. Using a few of the stock photos from the 200 Sedan's reveal, Chin has given us our first glimpse of what a 200 Convertible could looks like. It's sharp, retaining the good looks of the sedan. The windshield looks like it's been swept back further, and obviously, there are a pair of doors missing. Other than that, it's the same attractive car that debuted at Detroit.

Chrysler celebrates 30 years of minivans with special editions

Tue, 03 Sep 2013

It's been known by many names: the Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Caravan, Plymouth Voyager, Chrysler Voyager, Lancia Voyager, Volkswagen Routan, Ram Cargo Van... but the bottom line is that Chrysler's minivans have defined the segment for 30 years now. In fact, Chrysler says it has sold 13 million of them since 1983, helped along by the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan that accounted for nearly half of all minivans sold in the United States just last year. So to celebrate this three-decade milestone, the Auburn Hills auto has announced a pair of new special editions.
The 2014 Chrysler Town & Country 30th Anniversary Edition starts the Touring-L trim and includes such special touches as 17-inch wheels, unique badging, available Granite Crystal Pearl paint and an interior decked out in black Alcantara and Nappa leather, piano black trim and all the optional bells and whistles bundled in.
The 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan 30th Anniversary Edition, meanwhile, starts off with either the SE or SXT trims and also upgrades with 17-inch alloys as well as color-keyed mirrors and an interior with silver stitching, piano black trim, power everything, and of course, those special badges.

IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013

Wed, 02 Jan 2013

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.
