-Rear window had some rust on the upper driverside corner, removes all old weather stripping treated rust with rust mort, painted inside the grooves with por 15 resealed and put chrome back on, chrome does not sit flush as per the repair, had to clear silicone around the rear window as well.

-Trunk repaired with trunk extension and some holes that were in the trunk were fiber glassed, The trunk does still leak but I have the new trunk seal.

-Firewall did have some minor holes in it cut and patched with gorilla hair.

- Where the heater core box connects to the corner side of the firewall on the passenger side was rusted and needed to cut a small piece out, it is currently sealed up and there is no piece connecting from the firewall to the heater core box where outside air would normally rush in. The heat works great as well as the defogger.

- It also has a small hi torque starter

- It does leak a small amount of oil after the car has been ran for a while, maybe a few drips, oil level has not gone done and pressure is always around 60

- It does not have a full exhaust. I have some flex pipe running off of the headers into glasspacks with turn downs.

-Manual Choke cable for carburetor

- The transmission needs a bigger stall convertor to really feel the power after the engine modifications.

- Also the rearend has the original highway gears 2.76 I believe, will most likely benefit from installing higher gears(3.55 etc...)

- The speedometer is off but I have a new speedometer cable.

-The front hood will need to be re aligned as I believe it was hit in the front but no other visible damage to grill or bumper

-There was also old bondo on the driver's side door when we sanded down some of the paint.

-The original paint was scuffed and primed over, it was not brought down to bare metal except for the lower quarters and front fenders to repair rust from trim.

- All the lights work, blinkers, brake lights, reverse lights(Reverse lights are hooked up to a switch, but I still have the steering column piece)

- Also I have a set of fuses and extra bulbs.

-I am also including a New set of Hedman 78030 Long Headers. Shorties are on there now.

-Has original bumper jack and has a spare but the spare needs a new tire but the tires on the car are brand new cooper cobra 225 70 14.

-I am including all of the chrome which is not on the car, the head liner metal rods and any other parts I can find that I have that were not used.

-Here is a video of the car running, I put the microphone too close when so the sound gets distorted when I press the throttle.



- The car starts up and drives with no problems, the car will need a lot more body work and the rear glass will most likely have to be removed to fix the driverside upper corner better, some electrical for the gauge cluster and radio.

-The car is not perfect but it runs great and the motor is all re done just has a small oil leak as stated above, but I am not sure if it is the pan gasket or rear main seal.

-This is more of a ratrod type car.

-The car is being sold AS-IS

-Buyer is 100% responsible for picking up or shipping

Chrysler will debut a fully electric Pacifica at CES

Sun, Dec 11 2016

Fiat Chrysler Automotive will debut a fully electric version of its Pacifica minivan at CES, according to a report from Bloomberg citing "people familiar with the plans." There's already a plug-in hybrid Pacifica model with a battery large enough to allow for an all-electric range of 30 miles. It's unclear if it's this electric version of FCA's minivan that will be the basis of the self-driving vehicle the automaker will provide to Google. Bloomberg's report also suggests that FCA has an electric vehicle in the works for the Maserati brand. This Tesla-fighting vehicle has been rumored for some time, with previous reports pointing for a debut in 2020. In other words, we don't expect to see an electric Maserati at CES, but we'd love to be surprised. And we'll know soon enough – CES starts in less than month. Stay tuned.

FCA cuts powertrain warranties to 60k miles

Fri, May 29 2015

FCA US is cutting back the mileage of its powertrain warranty on some 2016 model year vehicles. Rather than the current five years/100,000 miles of coverage, the new amount is five years/60,000 miles for gasoline-fueled models from Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge and Ram. In March 2015, General Motors made a similar switch to five-years/60,000-miles of coverage for Chevrolet and GMC, and FCA US seems to be citing this as part of the reason for the shift. "Following changes already made by competitors, FCA US is adjusting powertrain warranty coverage for 2016 model year vehicles to be more consistent with industry practices," the automaker said in a portion of its statement. The bumper-to-bumper warranty for these vehicles is unchanged at three years/36,000 miles. According to Automotive News, Fiat's warranty is remaining at four years/50,000 miles. When it changed the mileage limit, GM also halved the number of free service visits for Chevy, GMC, and Buick to two from the previous four. The automaker claimed that the reason for the adjustments to its coverage was that a long warranty was seldom a reason for customers to buy a vehicle.

The basic coverage, also known as "bumper to bumper," remains at 3 years/36,000 miles. # # # News Source: FCA US, Automotive News - sub. req.Image Credit: Mark Ralston / AFP / Getty Images Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM Car Buying Maintenance Ownership FCA warranty fca us powertrain
