The heat works great as well as the defogger. - It also has a small hi torque starter - It does leak a small amount of oil after the car has been ran for a while, maybe a few drips, oil level has not gone done and pressure is always around 60 - It does not have a full exhaust. I have some flex pipe running off of the headers into glasspacks with turn downs. -Manual Choke cable for carburetor - The transmission needs a bigger stall convertor to really feel the power after the engine modifications. - Also the rearend has the original highway gears 2.76 I believe, will most likely benefit from installing higher gears(3.55 etc...) - The speedometer is off but I have a new speedometer cable. -The front hood will need to be re aligned as I believe it was hit in the front but no other visible damage to grill or bumper -There was also old bondo on the driver's side door when we sanded down some of the paint. -The original paint was scuffed and primed over, it was not brought down to bare metal except for the lower quarters and front fenders to repair rust from trim. - All the lights work, blinkers, brake lights, reverse lights(Reverse lights are hooked up to a switch, but I still have the steering column piece) - Also I have a set of fuses and extra bulbs. -I am also including a New set of Hedman 78030 Long Headers. Shorties are on there now. -Has original bumper jack and has a spare but the spare needs a new tire but the tires on the car are brand new cooper cobra 225 70 14. -I am including all of the chrome which is not on the car, the head liner metal rods and any other parts I can find that I have that were not used. -Here is a video of the car running, I put the microphone too close when so the sound gets distorted when I press the throttle.
- The car starts up and drives with no problems, the car will need a lot more body work and the rear glass will most likely have to be removed to fix the driverside upper corner better, some electrical for the gauge cluster and radio. -The car is not perfect but it runs great and the motor is all re done just has a small oil leak as stated above, but I am not sure if it is the pan gasket or rear main seal. -This is more of a ratrod type car. -The car is being sold AS-IS -Buyer is 100% responsible for picking up or shipping |

2015 Chrysler 200 gets 36 mpg with Tigershark four-cylinder
Thu, 27 Mar 2014Chrysler has come out with the official fuel economy information on the new 200 following the info that was leaked from the EPA earlier this week. It turns out that our initial report of 18 miles per gallon in the city and 29 mpg on the highway for the all-wheel-drive V6 was correct.
What we didn't know at the time, though, was what sort of economy the 200's other powertrain options managed. Outfitted with the 2.4-liter four-pot, Chrysler is promising 23 mpg in the city and 36 mpg on the highway, with a combined rating of 28 mpg. Those figures are fairly impressive; besting figures of the 2.5-liter Ford Fusion and tying the 1.5-liter, EcoBoost, non-start-stop model. It's also beats the four-cylinder Toyota Camry's 35-mpg highway figure while tying its combined efficiency.
Stepping up to the 295-horsepower Pentastar V6 pushes the economy down to 19 mpg in the city, while the highway figure is a respectable 32 mpg for the front-driver. The combined rating for the FWD V6 is 23 mpg. Those figures can't quite match the 270-horsepower 2.0-liter, EcoBoost four of the Fusion, which nets 22 city and 33 highway. In fact, the V6 200 has trouble besting even the 3.5-liter V6 of the Camry, which returns 21 mpg city and 31 mpg highway. Again, though, the 200 is noticeably more powerful.
Maserati's new North American CEO is Chrysler's dealer guru
Wed, 13 Nov 2013There's been a bit of a shakeup among the executive ranks at Chrysler and Maserati, as the Italian sports car manufacturer has appointed Peter Grady as its new North American CEO. Grady, who we imagine is about to get a very nice upgrade to his company car, will retain his role as vice president of dealer network development for Chrysler and Chrysler Capital, and is replacing Bob Graczyk at Maserati.
"It is with pleasure and anticipation that I welcome Peter to Maserati. He brings to our company nearly 30 years of leadership and experience. His background and industry expertise will be a great basis for the continued expansion of Maserati in North America," said Maserati CEO Harald Wester in a statement.
Also joining the team at Maserati is Saad Chehab, who previously worked for the Chrysler and Lancia brands and will be the new head of marketing for the Italian brand. He'll be replaced by Al Gardner, the former boss of Chrysler's southeast business center, as the head of Chrysler brand, according to Automotive News.
Marchionne: Midsize pickup still not in the cards; Ram 1500, Jeep Wrangler could use aluminum
Wed, 07 May 2014During the Fiat-Chrysler briefings on Tuesday, Reid Bigland, head of Ram Trucks, outlined the new product plans for his brand, including confirmation that an all-new light-duty Ram 1500 will launch in 2017. From there, discussions spun off in two directions, with the main questions being: will Ram build a midsize pickup? And, following Ford's move to extensively use aluminum in its new 2015 F-150, will Chrysler be using this weight-saving material for the next round of its fullsize truck, as well?
"I think there is room for a Ram 1000," Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne (pictured above) told members of the media, saying this is a conversation the automaker has been having internally for several years now. "We've tried this ... we've actually taken it to clinics," Marchionne stated, adding that the "response has been lukewarm."
"I have better use of aluminum in this house than a pickup truck." - Sergio Marchionne
