Chrysler 300F Coupe
VIN: 8403126310 Up for sale is an original 1960 California Black Plate Chrysler 300F. The car was stored in an open field for the past 6 years. It was covered, but developed some rust along the way. It is virtually complete, with all trim parts, engine, transmission, and rear end all intact. There won’t be a laundry list of parts to chase with this car! The only parts that are known to be missing are the radiator cap and the driveshaft. We consider this vehicle as a deteriorated restoration project. The VIN indicates the car
was built in January, 1960. The date
code on the block shows that the motor was made on January 22nd,
1960. The VIN also indicates that the original color is white and presumed to be
original paint. This car was an unknown vehicle to the Chrysler 300 Club International until they were recently contacted. The VIN and Trim Plate have been submitted to the club for a new “Birthing”. I expect to hear back from the association shortly, confirming the validity of the car. According to the Chrysler 300 Club website, there were 964 Coupes produced in 1960 and only 270 known survivors to date. This car makes #271! This is a clear CA title (non-op), however, it was last registered for street use in 1974. This car does not run. Mileage as shown on the odometer reads 23,796 miles. The engine is the coveted 413 Wedge with the Cross Ram intakes and dual four barrel carburetors. All of the Cross Ram linkage is in place. If you are looking for a Virgil Exner fin car to restore, this may be one of the last available cars to buy. The car is definitely restorable, with normal California rust, and a few areas’ that should not have rust (C-Pillar) that was due to the last owner not properly caring for the car. My son and I were determined to restore this vehicle, but due to a relocation of our warehouse business we are forced to sell. The reserve is low for a car of this caliber, and they sell for well into the 5 figures when restored. We can accommodate virtually any type of carrier or transportation needs. We even have a dock high loading dock to facilitate a container for overseas transport. Please note buyer assumes all costs for transportation, however, we will (within reason) assist with the loading of the vehicle, if necessary. The car is located less than 50 miles from either the San Francisco or Oakland ports for overseas freight. Unfortunately, I do not have a lot of history on the car, but if you have specific questions regarding condition, etc. please feel free to contact us. Serious parties interested in seeing this car in person may do so by scheduling an appointment. This vehicle is being sold as-is, where-is. We have additional photos (about 100 total) that will be provided upon request. Good Luck to all Bidders! Here is your chance to own a rare
piece of automobile history.

Junkyard Gem: 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser with 5-speed manual transmission
Sat, Mar 23 2019Before we get started on today's Junkyard Gem, let's talk about what I mean by the word "Gem" in this context, because I've been getting a lot of hate mail from readers foaming at the mouth with rage because I dared to refer to such cars as the Pontiac Sunfire or Subaru Tribeca by that name. When I say "Gem" I mean it in the historical sense, not because I think a particular vehicle is a generally superior machine. OK? Now we can talk about a real junkyard rarity: a PT Cruiser with a manual transmission. Chrysler sold PT Cruisers in Europe and Japan, where manual transmissions are preferred, and the 5-speed manual was the base transmission in the North American-market PT Cruiser all the way up until the 2009 model year. However, most American and Canadian PT Cruiser buyers proved willing to spend the extra money to get an automatic transmission, because... well, PT Cruiser. I found this car in a wrecking yard in the San Francisco Bay Area, which is such a hotbed of amateur racing and restoration of old British and Italian sports cars that perhaps residents have a slightly greater appreciation for three-pedal cars than Americans in general. With 150 horsepower moving 3,123 pounds— essentially a slightly bigger Neon — this car would have been more fun to drive than most minivans. Later on, Chrysler dropped Neon SRT4 drivetrains into PT Cruisers, creating the 215-horse GT Turbo PT Cruiser. We think a bustleback body kit would go well with one of those cars.

CES 2022 was huge for EVs | Autoblog Podcast #711
Fri, Jan 7 2022In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor, Green, John Beltz Snyder. CES took place this week, and there were some nice electric surprises from automakers, especially General Motors. John has been driving the Ram 1500 Power Wagon, as well as what seems to be its polar opposite, the electric Mini Cooper SE. Greg talks about the differences between the Acura TLX A-Spec long-termer (which is back in the shop) and the Type S loaner that's filling in for it. John's also got some interesting thoughts on leather interiors. Finally, the editors reach into the mailbag and help a repeat customer decide on a suitable replacement for a 2008 Lexus GX 470 in this week's Spend My Money segment.

Detroit 3 small cars lay an egg in latest Consumer Reports reliability study
Tue, 28 Oct 2014Consumer Reports has released its Annual Auto Reliability Survey and the results are, in a word, interesting. While we already covered the score-damaging effects of infotainment systems, there's another big angle to the data that's getting some attention - the utterly dismal scores of the Detroit Three's small car offerings.
The turbocharged Dodge Dart and Chevrolet Cruze, as well as the Ford Fiesta were their respective brands' lowest-scoring models, a stat that's made worse by the fact that the American automakers finished 25th, 21st and 23rd, respectively.
That's not acceptable for The Detroit Free Press' auto critic, Mark Phelan, who has penned a scathing critique of the D3's small car reliability scores, arguing that GM, Ford and Chrysler are "out of excuses."
