Hemi V-8 331 c.i. , 2bbl carb. Fluid Torque Drive 4-speed semi-automatic transmission. All original condition with 44,720 original miles. This car is one of those “barn find” originals. It was sold new to a Mrs. Smith in Buffalo, NY. Her husband passed away sometime later and she continued to drive the car sparingly until 1971 when she surrendered the plates. Oil change stickers on the Driver’s door show 37,116 miles on 6/17/69 and another 40,165 on July 13, ?(I would assume 1970). I have a document from NY state showing the plates were voluntarily surrendered 2/22/71. It sat in storage for 37 years until it was sold at an estate auction in 2010. Since then, The brakes and wheel cylinders have been replaced, the gas tank cleaned with new lines installed. The Master cylinder was rebuilt, brake lines installed, carburetor cleaned. A full tuneup was done with new plugs and wires, dual-point distributor refurbished. There is a NY state inspection sticker from 2013. The car passed inspection as all lights, turn signals, speedometer, gauges, horn, wipers are functioning properly. The original 6-volt system is intact. All courtesy lights, and cigar lighters are working. I have not been able to get the gas gauge or the AM radio working. The radio appears to be complete and the speaker component has supposedly been re-built. I believe a tube may need replacing to get it working as it does power up and the dial illuminates. The car has new whitewall radial tires installed. All glass in the car is original. The windows glide up and down effortlessly. The wing windows open and close perfectly. The headliner is virtually as new. The original door rubber seals are supple and near new in appearance. The windlace around the doors and headliner is original but appears as new. There is a small tear in the front bench seat on the passenger side. It was told to me that when the car came out of storage it had the plastic covering on the seats. I have a replacement carpet but have not installed it. The 4-speed automatic transmission upshifts and downshifts perfectly. It upshifts as it is supposed to when you lift on the accelerator above 20 MPH and it will downshift when the accelerator is depressed just as a modern car does. I have a complete service manual that explains all the systems in the car. Chrysler was noted for its state of the art engineering and it is quite impressive. It has power steering and vacuum assisted brakes. The Hemi engine starts reliably and runs smoothly. The oil pressure gauge shows excellent readings. I have not noticed any smoking or oil consumption. The ammeter and generator work perfectly. The paint on the car is original and shows a lovely patina. There is evidence that some repair was done to the right rear quarter as the paint appears newer in that area. The trim shows some pitting but is in good condition for its age. I had to install an exterior transmission oil cooler as I could not find a replacement for the engine block mounted heat exchanger which proved to be defective. The original part is still in place but I have by-passed it. The coolant lines are still the original ones so it could be put back to original very easily if the part could be located. The Fluid Torque Drive (torque converter) has a leak that can be remedied with replacing the seals. I have the seal kit. There are some small rust spots on the body. I have replacement rocker panels that have yet to be installed. Also, the heater core was by-passed when I got the car. I have not attended to this as I live in Florida and don’t need a heater. |

Chrysler purchases remaining shares from VEBA Trust, announces funding plan
Thu, 23 Jan 2014It's official: The Detroit Three is now The Detroit Two and The Fiat Subsidiary, Chrysler. Both the Italian carmaker and The Pentastar announced the completion of cash payments and a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on future payments necessary to make the Chrysler Group a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fiat. As previously detailed, Chrysler made a cash payment of $1.9 billion and Fiat North America made a cash payment of $1.75 billion to the Voluntary Employment Benefit Association (VEBA) run by the United Auto Workers union.
On top of that, Chrysler Group signed an MOU that agrees to payments of $700 million to the VEBA in four installments, the first of which was made concurrently with the other cash payments. And for you trivia mavens, the full name of the UAW is the International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America. So go impress your loved ones with that nugget after you check out the press release below.
Dodge offering novel 1-year lease on '14 Challenger and Charger models
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Dodge is just days away from unveiling refreshed versions of the Charger and Challenger at the 2014 New York Auto Show, models promising updated styling and new powertrain options. Depending on how you look at it, the company is either so confident in its forthcoming 2015 models that it's offering an interesting Double-Up lease deal on the current vehicles, or it's so eager to clear out existing stock that it's resorting to novel lease deals. In any case, what they present is an interesting scenario, one which allows buyers to get the existing model right now, and then trade up to the facelifted 2015 models in one year.
Starting April 17, when the refreshed cars debut through the end of August, buyers can lease a 2014 Charger or Challenger for one year and exchange it for a three-year lease on a 2015 model next year, with no additional money down and the same monthly payment. Customers can even switch vehicles when the new lease starts. If drivers want to buy the '15, they get $1,000 off the purchase price. To be eligible, both leases must use the same dealership and be financed through Chrysler Capital. The Double-Up deal excludes the SRT versions of both cars and Charger SE models.
To offset the flood of one-year-old models coming back to dealerships, Dodge has struck a deal with rental car agency Enterprise, which has agreed to buy them all. "One-year leases are highly unusual in the industry," said company spokesperson Ralph Kisiel, and the fleet sale deal is what makes it possible.
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.
