Vehicle Condition

You are viewing a 1967 Chrysler Newport Convertible. This 1967 Chrysler convertible is a relatively rare car with only around 2800 produced. This is a very solid number 3 condition car that could be driven and enjoyed as is or restored all the way up to show level.

Mechanically the car runs great and has lots of power! It floats down the road effortlessly and is a real blast to drive! Odometer displays 63,152 miles which appears to be original. The fender tag and VIN plate are still intact. The car still retains its original factory 383 engine and drivetrain. It has a clean straight body but somewhat weak paint. Under-carriage appears solid, remnants of the original factory undercoating are still present. No visible rust in the fenders, doors, hood, deck lid, floors, trunkpan (very minor surface rust only). This Chrysler is well optioned with Power Steering, Power Disc Brakes, Power Windows, Power Top, Factory A/C, tinted glass windshield. The interior was recently re-finished in the correct factory material purchased from SMS Fabrics.

What it needs

Since the car spent many years in storage it needs the following:

AC charged

Power windows need to be serviced. 2 motors are good and 2 of the motors will need replacement.

Radio does not work (I think it is simply a fuse since it was recently working)

Paint – A good paint job would easily double the value of the car.

Work recently completed

Lots of $ have already been spent of this car. Recent restoration improvements include:

New Convertible Top Replacement in the Factory correct cologne grain pattern

New Rear “Glass” Window. (Just like the original factory install)

New Convertible Top Rubber Seals

New Convertible Top Latches

New Front Windshield

New Interior – Front and Back seats completed in the factory exact “Metallic Red” including the correct “Cross-Hatch” pattern material specific to 1967 Newports and 300’s

Complete engine tune-up including new plugs, ignition cables, timing adjustment, etc.

New Carburetor & Fuel Pump

New Fuel Lines (Stainless Steel lines from fuel tank to fuel pump)

New replacement Fuel Tank & Straps

New Fuel Tank Sender

New Radiator

727 Automatic Transmission serviced and all seals replaced

Chrysler celebrates 30 years of minivans with special editions

Tue, 03 Sep 2013

It'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.

Jeep hiring 1,000 part-time workers in Toledo on Wrangler, Cherokee demand

Wed, 12 Mar 2014

The new Jeep Cherokee has been quite a success for Chrysler, but its factory workers are getting tired. The automaker has agreed to hire up to 1,000 part-time, temporary employees at its Toledo Assembly Complex where the CUV and Wrangler are built. It will allow the company to keep Jeep production moving, while giving laborers a break.
According to plant manager Chuck Padden in the Toledo Blade, full-time workers are regularly taking on 60 hours a week, and it's beginning to wear on them. "To get them more time off is important to us, to make sure they're refreshed, and can work safely," said Padden.
Chrysler has already hired 380 temporary, part-time workers for the plant, and 50 have been converted to full-time employees. The company is in the process of interviewing the rest of the new hires now and plans to have all 1,000 in place by the summer. They will work between 10 and 30 hours a week mostly on weekends for $15.78 per hour with limited benefits. The temporary positions will last "as long as demand continues for the Jeep Wrangler and the Jeep Cherokee," said Jodi Tinson, Chrysler spokesperson for manufacturing and labor communications, to Autoblog in an email.

Four-horse race opens up for next Chrysler-Fiat CEO

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

There are some companies that could change leadership overnight and still remain more or less the operations that they are. But some have built themselves up around one central figure. Just ask Carlos Tavares, who found he couldn't escape the long shadow of Renault-Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn. Tavares recently left to find his own limelight. But Ghosn isn't the only executive who presides over two disparate automakers on opposite ends of the globe.
Having built up Fiat and Chrysler around himself, we can hardly imagine either automaker getting along without Sergio Marchionne. But the day will come when the famously sweater-clad bigwig will step down. The pressing questions remain when when that day will come, and who will take his place. The only solid clues we have are in the statements made mostly by Marchionne himself, but those statements have been all over the place. When speaking to Automotive News in 2012, he said he would step down "no earlier than 2013, no later than 2015." But a year later, he had already seemingly changed his tune, indicating he could still be at the helm in 2016. Fiat chairman John Elkann seems to think Marchionne, 61, could and should stay on longer.
