1959 Chrysler Imperial With 413 And Push Button Trans. Solid Project No Reserve on 2040-cars
Concord, California, United States
|
You are bidding on a great classic car. It was pulled out a storage barn in Northern California two weeks ago. The only thing I have done is lube the hinges on the hood and doors. As well as adding a little Marvel oil to the cylinders. And added junk tires that hold air to make it a roller. The 413 v8 engine was not stuck and does turn over but does not run. The buttons on the transmission work freely. There are no working brakes at all. The interior is complete and is functional but it will need a lot of restoration. The passenger side inner door handle is broken off. The rear door locks appear to be stuck or I just don't know how they work. It has the rare swivel seats in the front! The dash is a work of art. There are some dash cracks and the steering wheel leather is peeling. There is a key for the ignition but it doesn't seen to work on the doors. The locks may just need lubrication. They want to turn but not quite and I don't want to force them. The mileage appears to be original. The Body is very solid There is a dent on the passenger side rocker. There was some body work done that has started to peel off revealing surface rust. It appears to only be surface rust from poor prep. The only rot I have found is on the rear quarter by the passenger side tire. Everything else appears to be surface. The front bumper is bent but can be easily straightened. The floors and trunk are solid. The trunk liners are even still in place. The glass is not cracked. The trim looks to be all there except for the trunk lid handle and trunk key lock. It also has a cool factor of about 9.2 on the groovy scale...This car is a work of art.!!!!! This is a non-running project.....it has no brakes....it has some rust....it has some dents....it has some other unknown issues....Please be realistic and bid accordingly!!! Look closely at the pictures and ask all questions prior to bidding. If you have less than 5 feedbacks please contact me prior to your bid being placed. I have also included a picture of a two door coupe I may be listing later depending on the interest. Local delivery is available for a fee. This is a no reserve auction. Low starting price. I don't know what it is worth, so there is no buy it now or early end. Thank you. |

Chrysler celebrates 30 years of minivans with special editions
Tue, 03 Sep 2013It'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.
2015 Chrysler 200S AWD
Mon, 02 Jun 2014I love road trips. Honestly, one of the best parts about this job is the freedom we're given to experience the open road, whether at new car launches or while bombing around with whatever we're testing on our home turf. But the longer-form road trip is equally special to me, and it's something I'm always eager to do. Air travel stinks - that's not news. So if I can drive, I will. And without our dear TSA to fight with, I can pack all the chainsaws and gallon jugs of chocolate milk that I want.
So when it came time to attend the 2014 New York Auto Show this past April, I thought, "Why not drive?" Typically, the route from downtown Detroit to Manhattan is something like 10 hours, but I decided to bake some extra time into the journey and planned for the vast majority of my travels to be off the beaten path. Doing the "avoid expressways" route allows you to see parts of America you've never encountered before, and to meet people with stories and opinions that you've never heard. It's a great way to travel if you have the time. There's something uniquely serene about seeing the country in a great car on a great road.
Let's talk about that "great car" line for a moment. Ideally, long stretches of backroads are best done in something fast, comfortable and involving - a Porsche 911 comes to mind. Or, another school of thought says to pick some fun little spitfire like the always-lovely Mazda MX-5 Miata, for top-down, sun-drenched fun. But for this trip, I chose the 2015 Chrysler 200, in fully loaded S guise with all-wheel drive. Now, settle down; I'm not about to compare it to either the Porsche or Mazda. The point I'm making is this: after 1,500 test miles under my butt, I can emphatically state that the new 200 is indeed a great car in its own right.
Dodge shows can-do attitude with grand Can'avan sculpture
Fri, 01 Nov 2013There are lots of ways to celebrate an important birthday, and all of them are well deserved. You can throw a big party, buy yourself something nice, or - if you're the altruistic type - do something for others in need. The latter is how Chrysler has opted to mark the 30th anniversary of its Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country.
Together with hunger-advocacy organization Canstruction, the Chrysler Foundation has built a full-scale replica of the Grand Caravan out of 30,000 food cans in the square at the corner of Yonge and Dundas in Toronto, a ways down the highway from where the real vans are built in Windsor. The sculpture was built over the course of 10 hours by 30 volunteers and was displayed earlier this week.
Now the installation is being taken down, and the cans of food are being donated to the Daily Bread Food Bank, which will assemble them into 2,000 food baskets to be distributed to those in need through its network of 200 food banks across the Canadian metropolis. Check out a neat time-lapse video of the build and the press release below.
