Rare "barn Find" - One Of 650 on 2040-cars
Northport, New York, United States
1951
Chrysler Imperial Convertible Top of the line American car in 1951 - first year for the Chrysler Hemi 331 Chrysler Fire-Power Hemi engine I purchased this car from an estate auction about a year ago. The story that came with the car was that the car has been off the road since the late 70's as the previous owner was in the process of restoring it, but he got sick/lost interest and it was put away and had been in his barn in NH until I purchased it.. Car is in the same condition that I purchased it (partially disassembled and dirty -"barn fresh", as they say, but is complete and comes with many extra parts from a donor sedan that came with it (extra bumpers, grill, various trim pieces, interior pieces, etc..) The engine spins free and I have managed to get it to run briefly using starting fluid, but I am selling it as a non-running as I do not have the time to get it going properly. Body and trunk are very solid and rust free for a car of this vintage. There is a small dent in the rear fender (easy fix or use replacement fender that comes with car) and some small prior repairs that have been made to the passenger side floor. Relocation forces sale so reserve is very reasonable for a car this cool and rare. Over all a solid car that would need minimal work to get up and running as a driver or provide a great foundation for a full restoration. Feel
free to email or call me at 631-404-Zero867 with any questions I can send other pictures upon request and I highly recommend you personally inspect before bidding. As mentioned above, car is being sold as is/where is and Buyer is responsible for any/all shipping costs. Thanks for looking- Rich |

Chrysler Town & Country plug-in hybrid minivan coming in 2015
Mon, 06 Oct 2014Among the multitude of models that Fiat Chrysler Automobiles announced as part of its five-year production plan in May was a plug-in hybrid version of the Town & Country minivan for sometime in 2016. However, according to the latest pronouncement from company CEO Sergio Marchionne, that timetable may have been moved forward quite a bit.
Marchionne told Automotive News at the Paris Motor Show that the PHEV minivan would now be launching in late 2015. That strategy does seem a bit confusing, though, because the next-gen platform for the T&C isn't supposed to hit the road until sometime in 2016, according to the plan. So it's not clear whether the boss means the PHEV rides on the current chassis or if the new model is going on sale early.
The technology underpinning the new plug-in hybrid has been shrouded in mystery. However, during the five-year plan meeting, FCA claimed the model could earn fuel economy figures around 75 mpge. Chrysler previously tested a 25-unit fleet of them as part of a demonstration test in Auburn Hills, MI, in 2012, but that didn't go so well.
Chrysler readying 20 Moparized vehicles for SEMA
Tue, 08 Oct 2013The Las Vegas Convention Center has plenty of space for aftermarket companies and automakers to show off their wares, and it looks like Chrysler is taking advantage of the spacious floor plan. At next month's SEMA Show, Chrysler will have a full 20 cars from its six brands decked out with Mopar gear.
As a hint of what is to come, Chrysler released a handful of teaser sketches showing glimpses of modified Jeep Cherokee, Ram 1500, Fiat 500L and Chrysler 300 concept vehicles. The automaker will also use the venue to show off a new line of Jeep Performance Parts offered by the all-new Mopar Off-Road Division. In addition to the images, Chrysler also issued a brief press release - posted below - breaking down some of the "industry-first features" that Mopar has offered in recent years.
Chrysler museum to open one last time on June 8
Thu, 18 Apr 2013Due to a lack of funding, Chrysler closed the doors to its Walter P. Chrysler Museum in Auburn Hills, MI back in December, but it sounds like the facility will be open next month for one last hurrah. According to a report in the Detroit Free Press, the Chrysler Museum will be open to the public one last time on June 8 for the annual Chrysler Employee Motorsport Association car show.
While the car show will take place in the museum's parking lot from 9:00 AM until 4:00 PM on June 8 with a theme dedicated to muscle cars past and present, all attendees will be able to be among the last people to tour the museum - with free admission. The museum is known for housing some of the more important production and concept cars from Chrysler's history. Check out the car show's flyer for more information.
