1991 Chrysler Imperial Base Sedan 4-door 3.3l on 2040-cars

Year:1991 Mileage:75309
Location:

Houston, Texas, United States

Houston, Texas, United States

I bought this car in February of 2009 from a lady at a retirement apartment complex where I was helping a friend.  I saw the car there for many years, not moving but once a year or so.  The owner knew something was wrong with it, but couldn't remember what it was called.  I found out the word was "transmission"!  When I bought the car, the transmission had a problem so I had it professionally rebuilt for more than $2000.00. I had the cracked windshield replaced, rebuilt the alternator, new battery, radiator rebuilt, A/C drier and gaskets replaced, Converted to R-134a refrigerant, new front brake pads and rotors and front struts, and new Cooper white wall tires.  The rear struts need to be replaced, but I have not been able to find any. The A/C is cold and radio and power antenna work.  All  windows and locks appear to be working.  The cruise control is not working and is one item I have not gotten to checking out.  I had the vinyl top repainted and front bumper fillers replaced and repainted.  This led to me having the hood and front panels repainted due to rock chips and one or two panels on the rear repainted and the pinstripes re-done at a cost of around  $860.00.  A sudden downpour led me to run in the garage with a ladder and I bumped the top left of the trunk and scratched the paint. It could probably be corrected with touch up paint.

I originally bought the car to pair with my 1974 Imperial in a car show with a "Back to the Future" theme, but the brake caliper froze up on the 1974 the day of the show, so it wasn't meant to be.  Since I have owned the car, I used it to go to car club meetings and events, and sometimes not used it for a couple of months at a time. The mileage that the car shows was put on early in the cars life as I have not put many miles on it since I have owned it and it was not driven for about 3+ years just before I owned it.  I need to get rid of some of my cars as I do not have enough storage space for them all.  Nine is a bit much to take care of.  I'm also selling a 1974 Imperial, a 1976 Fleetwood, and a 2004 Volvo V70.

New UAW boss Williams talks tough, vows 'no more concessions'

Sun, 08 Jun 2014

Dennis Williams, the newly elected president of the UAW, had some tough words for American automakers in his inauguration speech at the 2014 UAW Convention, striking down the possibility of any additional concessions from the 400,000-strong union.
"No more concessions. We are tired of it. Enough is enough," Williams said during his speech. UAW employees have not received a raise in nearly 10 years, according to Reuters.
Considering the recent strong results for Ford, Chrysler and General Motors, the union's demands are likely to carry a bit more weight in next year's negotiations. And considering Williams' tough stance, we could be in for some fireworks once negotiations commence.

Chrysler UConnect wins AOL Autos Technology of the Year Award

Wed, 09 Jan 2013

The first annual AOL Autos Technology of the Year Award has been won by Chrysler's upgraded UConnect system.
Over 35 entries were considered and narrowed down to six finalists in three categories: Connectivity, Telematics and Active Safety. The judges, which included editors from AOL Autos, Autoblog and Engadget, as well as a number of other auto and tech journalists and luminaries, chose UConnect over the MyFord Mobile app, Audi Connect with Google Maps, Cadillac CUE, Honda's LaneWatch technology and Nissan's Tire Pressure Alert and Refill System. Even readers who were polled on which technology should win chose UConnect.
AOL Autos Editor in Chief David Kiley remarked that Chrysler's UConnect deserved the first Technology of the Year Award not because of what it does, but for how UConnect performs every time it's used. Kiley went on to say UConnect works the way it's supposed to, fills a need and puts a smile on your face. By meeting those requirements, UConnect very much deserved AOL Auto's first Tech of the Year award.

Chrysler-Fiat quality chief out after another poor Consumer Reports showing

Tue, 28 Oct 2014

Fiat Chrysler has announced a management change following the company's woeful performance in the latest Consumer Reports Annual Auto Reliability Survey. Of the 28 brands surveyed, FCA's marques occupied the five the seven lowest scores, while Dodge, Ram, Jeep and Fiat were the four lowest scorers.
Doug Betts, FCA's 51-year-old head of quality "left the company to pursue other interests," which, considering the aforementioned paragraph, means he was sacked. According to Automotive News, Betts joined Chrysler in 2007, defecting from Nissan, and, insiders report, had a somewhat tumultuous relationship with new boss Sergio Marchionne.
His replacement is the newly promoted Matthew Lidane (shown at inset), who was formerly VP of systems and components. Lidane has been at Chrysler since 1987 and was previously chief engineer of the Jeep product team as well as the vehicle line boss for the compact US wide platform which (ironically) underpins two of FCA's lowest scoring vehicles, the Dodge Dart and Jeep Cherokee.
