Rancho Santa Margarita, California, United States
THIS WAS GRANDPA'S CHRYSLER WAGON BOUGHT BRAND NEW IN 1967. HE PUT 63,000 MILES ON IT, THAT'S ALL.
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL, NUMBERS MATCHING UNMOLESTED CAR-LESS THAN 4,600 MADE. ONLY SURFACE RUST ZERO CANCER ANYWHERE. NEVER HIT, LAZER STRAIGHT BUT A FEW MINOR BOO BOO'S. GRANDPA BOUGHT ONLY THE BEST OF THE BEST - I AM TOLD THIS CAR HAS EVERY AVAILABLE OPTION FOR A TOWN & COUNTRY STATION WAGON IN 1967, NAMELY (HERE ARE THE MAIN THINGS): DUAL AIR CONDITIONING WHICH STILL WORKS, NEEDS CHARGING CRUISE CONTROL PW/PWW/PDL/PS/PDB POWER REAR WINDOW FOLD DOWN REAR SEAT SEAT BELTS CRUISE CONTROL HEADLIGHT DIMMER EMERGENCY FLASHERS SPLIT BENCH SEATS THIRD ROW SEAT FACTORY TOWING PACKAGE WITH FACTORY TRAILER HITCH 440 "RB" SERIES "TNT" ENGINE 4-BARREL CARBURETOR DUAL SNORKEL AIR CLEANER DUAL EXHAUST TORQUE-FLITE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION 8 3/4 REAR END TOP OF THE LINE RADIO + 8-TRACK PLAYER ROOF RACK GRAB HANDLES & FENDER STEP PADS TO ACCESS ROOF RACK HERE IS THE VIN - CE 46K 761 95512 DECODED: C=NEWPORT, 300, NEW YORKER, CHRYSLER E=ECONOMY 4=4-DOORS 6=3-SEAT WAGON K=V8-440CID, 1-4-BBL, "RB" (RAISED BLOCK) 7=YEAR - 1967 6=ASSEMBLY PLANT - NEWARK DELAWARE 195512=SERIAL NUMBER THE CAR SAT IN GRANDPA'S MID-WILSHIRE LOS ANGELELS BUILDING PARKING LOT FOR 25 YEARS AFTER HE PASSED AWAY IN 1985. A VAGRANT WAS LIVING IN THE CAR WHEN I RETRIEVED IF FOR MY UNCLE IN 2010. OVER THE 25 YEARS, KIDS BROKE THE DRIVERS WIND WING AND GOT IN AND DID SOME GRAFFITI WORK, RUINED THE FRONT SEAT (ANY UPHOLSTERY SHOP CAN FIX THIS) , AND THE HEADLINER (NEW KIT ON EBAY RIGHT NOW FOR $250) AND BROKE OFF THE TURN SIGNAL HANDLE, STOLE THE 8-TRACK PLAYER AND THE SPEAKERS. AMAZINGLY, THEY DID NOT RUIN ANY PART OF THE DASHBOARD (EXCEPT THEY TOOK THE HEADLIGHT DIMMER SONSOR)- IT IS INTACT (THANK GOODNESS!) BUT THEY DID TAKE THE STEERING WHEEL EMBLEM (ONE ON EBAY RIGHT NOW) . THEY TORE OFF THE DRIVER'S SIDE OUTSIDE REMOTE MIRROR (I JUST BOUGHT ONE FOR IT), STOLE THE HUBCAPS (I HAVE 6), TORE OUT THE REAR VIEW MIRROR (ONE ON EBAY RIGHT NOW), TOOK THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR (PAIR ON EBAY RIGHT NOW) AND THAT IS ALL I CAN THINK OF. IT SAT IN MY STREET ROD BUILDER'S BACK YARD FROM 2010 TO JUNE 2013 WHEN I ASKED HIM TO GET THE CAR RUNNING- I BOUGHT THE PARTS, HE AND HIS STAFF DID THE WORK, AS FOLLOWS: ALL NEW TIRES ALL NEW BRAKES (ROTORS/DRUMS TURNED, NEW CALIPERS & WHEEL CYLINDERS, NEW SPRING KITS NEW BRAKE SHOES AND PADS NEW MASTER CYLINDER NEW MUFFLERS NEW SHOCKS NEW STERRING GEARBOX (THE LORD ONLY KNOWS WHY THAT WENT BAD) NEW WATER PUMP NEW BELTS NEW CARBURETOR NEW HOSES NEW RADIATOR CAP NEW HEADLIGHTS NEW MOPAR ALTERNATOR NEW INNER/OUTER SEALS & BEARING ALL 4 CORNERS GAS TANK REMOVED, BOILED OT, COATED INSIDE NEW IGNITION SWITCH & KEY NEW BATTERY AFTER HE BROUGHT IT DOWN TO ME, WE DETERMINED THE ONE OF THE NEW CALIPERS AND THE NEW MASTER CYLINDER WAS BAD SO I REPLACED THEM. SOMETHING HAS GONE WRONG WITH THE ELECTRICAL SO I BYPASSED THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TO BE ABLE TO START THE CAR IN ORDER FOR YOU TO TEST DRIVE IT, BUT SOMEONE WILL HAVE TO TAKE APART THE CONNECTIONS AND CLEAN THE CONTACTS AND RE-HOOK UP EVERYTHING. THIS IS COMMON TO THIS CAR AND IS EASILY CURED. ONCE THE JUICE GETS BACK INTO THE CAB EVERYTHING WORKS AND THE A/C WILL HAVE TO BE CHARGED. ALSO,THE REAR WINDOW WONT ROLLUP BUT I CAN HEAR CLICKING SO THE MOTOR I BELIEVE IS FINE BUT THE TRACK IS FROZEN FOR SOME REASON. ALL OF THE GLASS IS OEM AND IN VERY GOOD CONDITION AS IS THE IMPORTANT TRIM WHICH IS ALL THERE - NOTHING MISSING- THE EASY STUFF LIKE THE REAR FENDER EMBELMS ARE SHOT BUT ARE AVAILABLE. THE CAR RUNS GREAT, SHIFTS GREAT DRIVES GREAT AND THE BRAKES WILL THROW YOU THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD IF YOU DON'T WATCH IT - NEEDLESS TO SAY, WITH A LITTLE EFFORT, ELBOW GREASE AND SOME LOVIN' THIS CAN BE AN EXCELLENT CRUISER, SURF WAGON OR PUSH CAR FOR YOUR ANTIQUE FUEL ALTERED DRAGSTER LIKE IT WAS GOING TO BE FOR MINE BUT I OPTED FOR A '29 MODEL "A" ROADSTER PICKUP, INSTEAD. OR....YOU CAN TAKE OUT THE DREAM DRIVE TRAIN OUT, PUT IT IN YOUR SLEEPER VALIANT AND FIND SOMENE WHO WANTS TO PART OUT THE REST OF THE CAR AS IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THIS WAGON HAS A '67 440 TNT WITH STEEL CRANK, 350 HP CAM, 915 HEADS, TORQUE-FLITE AND 354 POSI 8 3/4 REAR END AND IT RUNS GREAT WITH ONLY 63K MILES ON THE CLOCK.

Chrysler 300C John Varvatos Limited Edition returns for 2014 with AWD option
Thu, 30 Jan 2014Before last year, many of us car guys had no idea who John Varvatos was. That all changed when the Detroit-native fashion designer lent his talents to the Chrysler 300 to create the snazzy, special-edition 300C John Varvatos models. The fashionable sedan returns for 2014 with two versions (Luxury and Limited), and the only big news here is that the latter model will be getting an optional all-wheel-drive system.
Distinguishing the Luxury and Limited models, the Luxury comes with Platinum exterior accents and is offered in a handful of colors while the Limited gets darker Titanium accents and only comes with a Phantom Black Tri-Coat paint job. Both cars get an exclusive interior design with special leathers, patterns and colors worthy of the designer's name and logo. The JV Edition is the only 300C to offer a V6 engine, but V8 lovers can still opt up for the powerful Hemi engine.
It would appear that the Luxury Edition is already on sale, but you'll have to wait until March for the 2014 JV Limited Edition, which, according to a Chrysler spokesperson, will be "limited from a production timing standpoint." The JV Luxury Edition starts at $41,195 and the Limited Edition will have a starting price of $44,480 (*not including $995 for destination) - both cars can be optioned with all-wheel drive for $2,500. Scroll down for the press release on the 300C John Varvatos Limited Edition.
Chrysler patents smarter minivan folding seats
Thu, 02 Jan 2014It's frightening to think of how quickly the mice would have overtaken us if we hadn't stayed one step ahead of them with better mousetraps. We'll never have to worry about that in our relentlessly re-engineered world, though. Case in point: Chrysler has been granted a patent by the US Patent and Trademark Office for an improved design of the already wondrous Stow 'n' Go seating found in the automaker's Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans.
Introduced in 2005, the Stow 'n' Go was improved in 2008, and based on the drawings of this third-generation improvement, the new design appears to allow stowage of the second row of seats without having to move the front-row seats forward as much. It look like it also involves fewer operations and moving parts, with a portion of the seatback being incorporated into the flat floor when the seats are stowed, as opposed to having a completely separate cover.
It's possible that the innovation may appear on the next-generation minivans expected in 2015, but Chrysler isn't commenting on the patent.
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles gets officially official this Sunday
Thu, 09 Oct 2014Want a chunk of the new Fiat Chrysler Automobiles? Shares of the newly joined (technically) Dutch automaker will begin trading on Monday on the New York Stock Exchange. The company itself will become a single entity on Sunday.
According to The Detroit Free Press, the new FCA will be the world's seventh largest company after Fiat shareholders' chance to oppose the merger expired on October 4. To prevent the merger, shareholders would have needed to exchange at least 500 million euros in shares for cash.
On Monday, current shareholders of both Fiat and Chrysler stock will see their shares converted into an equal number of FCA shares, the Freep reports.
