Up for sale and your consideration is a very rare 1963 Chrysler Imperial Crown Convertible that is a turn key car that can be enjoyed immediately upon the day of purchase. Please take the time to look over all 24 photos here on the auction. I have many more photos of the car should a prospective buyer request them. Although not a 100 point show car, it has great curb appeal and is priced well below current market value. Only 531 of this model vehicle was produced and it is unknown how many are still in existence. Since the vehicle was purchased pretty much as you see it, my description and summary is based on a complete physical inspection, servicing of the car, driving the car, and conversation with the previous owner. In person viewings by appointment are welcomed and encouraged for those who have any doubts about the overall condition of this vehicle.

NUMBERS:

Data plate indicates this vehicle was built on December 7th, 1962 at the Detroit plant. Paint code WW-1 indicates this car was originally Oyster White with a black interior (code 956). It is powered by a code T-41 413 cubic inch engine and a torqueflite automatic transmission. Carburetor is the Carter AFB four barrel with # 3256A. Rear axle ratio is 2:93

OPTIONS:

6 way power seat that works. Power windows that all work. FACTORY WORKING A/C converted to R-134A. Power steering and brakes. Tinted glass. Remote control side view mirror. Aftermarket AM/FM stereo. I have the original radio which will go with the car.

EXTERIOR:

Car was repainted somewhere along the way. The color is kind of an Ivory White with a bit of yellow tint. There is evidence of some rust repair in the rocker panel areas, and small spots forward and rear of rear wheel openings.

INTERIOR:

Seats, carpet, door panels and dash are in very nice condition, and have been redone in a garnet red color.

TRUNK:

Trunk is in nice condition with it's original black carpeting. Original jack and spare tire are intact.

UNDERCARRIAGE:

The underside of this vehicle has been preserved due to undercoating when new or close to new judging by the aging. No rust was found on the undercarriage and exhaust and components appear to be in good condition.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT:

Engine and all components are clean but not dressed up with rattle can spray paint. All components appear to be intact.

GENERAL CONDITION:

This is a #3 car with a nice general appearance that would be a hit at any car show or cruise. Due to it's rarity it's what I refer to as a "show me another one" car.

IMPROVEMENTS:

I have in hand over $11,000.00 in bonafide receipts for parts and labor on this vehicle. Brake system rebuild including master cylinder, brakes, wheel cylinders, brake lines and hoses. Front end rebuild including springs, ball joints, tie rods, idler arm bushings, power steering pump, steering box, shocks and upper a-arm bushings.

VALUE & PRICE:

I have two appraisals for this car in hand. One was prepared by Auto Appraisals Unlimited INC. in New York on 10/31/2010 and it states this car has a fair market value of $33,500.00. The other appraisal was prepared on 9/14/2011 by William Anderson. A respected appraiser with offices in New york and Maryland. With a long list of qualifications on his resume including AACA Judge, Buick Club Master Judge, Cadillac-LaSalle Club Judge, and award winning author of automotive books as well as a regular columnist for Old Car's Weekly and the Review. His value sources were the Old Car's Price Guide and the Black Book CPI. These are considered to be the only accurate guides since they are based on the actual selling prices of vehicles and not their asking prices. Anderson's appraisal came in at $27,000.00 based on the car's needs. This was also a 2011 value. The current 2013 fair market value of this car in #3 condtion according to the Old Car's price guide is over $35,000.00 The #2 value of this car is $55,000.00 and the #1 value of this car is listed at $78,000.00 This is an investment quality vehicle that is being offered at a price well below current market value. The goal is to sell the car. Besides being a solid investment for a collector, it's also an opportunity for a restorer looking for a nice return. There is even a lot of meat left on the bone for the flippers. Low ballers and traders need not even respond. I'm looking for a real car person who is well versed on the value and potential of this vehicle. Included with the sale of the car is some very important documentation to accompany this car. An original 1963 Imperial Owners Guide and Manual s well as an original Owners Service Certificate book. Also Included is a 1963 Imperial Dealer full size color brochure. Next is a copied full length comprehensive book excerpt article on the Postwar Chrysler Imperials. Also included is both of the vehicle appraisals as well as all receipts for all the work completed. Lastly is an original 1963 Chrysler Imperial Service Manual that is several hundred pages thick. This is a very comprehensive and thorough collection of documentation.

470,000 Jeep Liberty, Chrysler 200, and Dodge Avenger models recalled for restraint defect

Sat, Oct 14 2017

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles said on Friday it is recalling 470,000 vehicles worldwide to replace a component that may inhibit deployment of the vehicles' active head restraints in the event of a crash. Around 414,000 of those vehicles were sold in the United States. Apparently, "a component common to the modules of certain vehicles may degrade after extensive vehicle use." The recall covers 2012 Jeep Liberty sport utility vehicles and 2012-13 Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger midsize cars. FCA says a warning light may alert owners to the problem. The Italian-American automaker said it is unaware of any injuries or accidents related to the recall. The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened an investigation into the issue in June. (Reporting by David Shepardson; Editing by Steve Orlofsky) Related Video:

Has Dodge stepped in it again with Scat Pack lawsuit?

Mon, 20 Oct 2014

Lawsuits are an unfortunate part of doing business in just about any industry, so the latest complaint filed by a California-based aftermarket firm against Chrysler would seem to be nothing more than business as usual. But this isn't the first time the two companies have sparred over this particular issue.
According to a report from Automotive News, the dispute revolves around the Scat Pack name that Chrysler first offered on the Charger, Coronet, Dart and Super Bee starting in 1968. Scat Enterprises, a manufacturer of crankshafts and other components for Dodges and other vehicles, sued Chrysler for using its name. A few years later the Scat Pack disappeared from the Dodge catalog.
Fast forward to August 2013 when Chrysler applied to register the Scat Pack name anew. The US Patent and Trademark Office turned down Chrysler's application, but the automaker proceeded anyway, unveiling new Scat Packs for the Challenger, Charger and Dart at last year's SEMA show.

FCA registers 'Cuda' trademark, but we wouldn't get our hopes up

Fri, Jun 23 2017

It seems Chrysler has submitted a trademark with the US Patent and Trademark Office for the name "Cuda," as first reported by Motor1. Fans of Mopar will instantly recognize this as the abbreviated name of Plymouth's classic Barracuda muscle car, which occasionally bared the shortened nomenclature. Though this might seem like a sign that FCA is considering a revival of the beloved machine, we wouldn't get our hopes up. See, rumors of a 'Cuda or Barracuda revival have circulated pretty much since the moment Dodge showed the modern Challenger and when it went on sale. And some of those rumors have involved the re-registering of the 'Cuda trademark, even as far back as 2010. Over the years, each rumor died a quiet death as time went on and no 'Cudas appeared on dealer lots. There is one rumor that's recent enough to still have a slim chance of realization, circa 2015 to be exact. It predicts a smaller Challenger-based car called Barracuda that could appear as a Dodge in both coupe and drop-top versions. However, we doubt it will come true, since FCA doesn't exactly have a large development budget, and we're not sure what the company would have to gain by making another sports car to sell below the Challenger. Odds are, it would cannibalize sales from the older, completely developed, and thus more profitable Challenger. Really, this trademark filing is probably just a defensive move for Chrysler. It will ensure that no one else can slip in and snag the name for their own vehicle. It should also help ensure that Chrysler has the rights to use the name on other products such as memorabilia. Sorry to crush your dreams. Related Video: News Source: US Patent and Trademark Office via Motor1Image Credit: Chrysler Rumormill Chrysler Dodge Coupe Performance hemi cuda
