1952 Chrysler Imperial Sedan with Hemi FirePower V-8 & Fluid-Torque Drive Transmission This is a very nice original Chrysler Imperial and it runs great! It was originally a New Mexico car that has been part of a large Auto collection in Southern California over the last 9 years. The car looks as good as it does in the listing photos that were just taken this week. The previous owner stated that he was only the third owner and that the miles were very low. The condition of the original interior and other original parts on this car leads us to believe that it does have extremely low miles. The body is very straight with no signs of rust and the paint is great. The chrome on this car is in very good condition except for the rear bumper. The interior looks to be all original and in great condition. (See photos) Everything in the engine compartment looks to be very original and the car still has the factory labels, tags and paint markings on the firewall. The car also comes with the original Owner's Manual. 1952 was only the second year for the Chrysler Imperials to have the Hemi FirePower V-8 standard plus the optional Hydraguide power steering assist and power windows. This car had a base price of over $3,800 and it was equipped with a heater, radio and power windows plus it came with the optional Fluid-Torque Drive Transmission, Hydraguide steering assist and power windows. The Hemi engine was rated at 180 HP and it carried the car to speeds well over 100 mph. This car is well over 60 years old so we are selling it as-is. The car can be viewed in the Newport Beach area and we are available to answer any questions or even send additional photos if needed. Please call 949-642-7447 to make an appointment to view it or if you need additional information. The buyer is responsible for all shipping costs but we will assist the buyer in the shipping process. |

Minivan market not what it used to be, but margins make up for it
Thu, 05 Jun 2014
Residual values for last year's minivans are higher than they were in 2000.
Much like the station wagon was the shuttle of Baby Boomer generation, the minivan has been the primary means of transport for Generations X and Y. Just as the boomers abandoned the Country Squire, though, those kids that were toted around in Grand Caravans and Windstars are adults, and they certainly don't want to be seen in the cars their parents drove.
Toyota tops Consumer Reports best, worst used car values
Tue, 18 Mar 2014We often mock Toyota for building boring, soulless cars, but a new study by Consumer Reports suggests that regardless of whether that's true, the company has some of the best used cars on the market. In its report on used cars from 2004-2013, the Japanese automaker had 11 vehicles among its brands on the list - more than any other automaker.
CR breaks the list down by cost and vehicle size, and Toyota has at least one entry at every price point and in nearly every segment. To score a recommendation, a vehicle had to perform well in the magazine's initial tests and score above-average reliability results. It also tried to only suggest cars with electronic stability control. Of the 28 recommended vehicles, Honda/Acura had the second most mentions at six, and Ford, Hyundai and Subaru managed two each.
The Detroit brands also made it to the list, but not in a positive way. Consumer Reports compiled a list of 22 vehicles it wouldn't recommend because "they have multiple years of much-worse-than-average overall reliability." General Motors had the most unrecommended models on the list at six, but Chrysler and Ford weren't far behind, with five cars each from their brands not making the grade. The full list of recommendations is available on CR's website.
Chrysler recalling 700k minivans and Dodge Journey for ignition switch woes
Tue, 01 Jul 2014General Motors isn't the only automaker with ignition switch problems. Chrysler is fighting it too and is now announcing a recall of 695,957 examples worldwide of the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans from the 2008-2010 model years, plus the 2009-2010 Dodge Journey.
According to a statement from Chrysler, the models have a bad wireless ignition node detent ring in the ignition switch, making it possible for drivers to appear to have the key in the "Run" position but for the spring not to fully engage. It can then slip back to the "Accessory" position and shut the car off. If this happens, the vehicle loses power steering, brake boost and the airbags.
There is some disparity about the number of vehicles affected under this recall. In its statement, Chrysler claims that it covers 525,206 vehicles in the US, 102,892 in Canada, 25,591 in Mexico and 42,268 elsewhere. However, the recall announcement posted by The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration lists an estimated 438,109 vehicles in the US. Chrysler spokesperson Nick Cappa told Autoblog via email that the reasoning for the different figures "will become clear at a later date."
