I purchased this car on ebay in June of 2007 from Indianapolis Indiana and drove it home to the Houston, TX area. I bought this car because of the great memories I had with my last '74 Imperial. It really is a pleasure to drive. According to the previous owner, this car was sold new at Tom O'Brien Chrysler Plymouth in Indianapolis and remained in the garage of the original owner in the small town of Needham until 2003. A Derby car guy had it for a short time and then listed it on Ebay in December 2003 when the previous owner purchased it. He had it from 90,000 miles through 106,130 miles. The previous owner kept good service records. I have receipts for service records. At some point he had the exhaust dualed out with flow master mufflers installed. After I purchased it that was one of my first items to address. I don't think a luxury car should sound like a race car so I had the mufflers replaced with regular high flow ones. It is not as quiet as from the factory because I didn't put resonators on it, but it sounds nicer than the flow masters. At the time I purchased it, the A/C was not functioning. The hoses were leaking and I had the hoses rebuilt in Tulsa, OK on the way back to Houston, while staying with a friend. At that time I installed a new compressor and clutch, expansion valve, and bought a new filter/drier. The condenser had powder in it from the drier, so I ordered a new one online and installed that once I got home. I didn't like the factory radio, so I installed a newer Chrysler factory Infinity radio with cassette and CD and Infinity speakers. No wiring was cut and I am including the original and a spare factory radio if you want to easily convert it back. The power antenna has stopped working also. Factory jack and lug wrench are like new. Headliner has two spots that are torn a little. The front windows work but the rear ones don't. The motors work, but the plastic gears in the motors break and it is a relatively easy fix. I recently saw the parts online for about $15 each. I purchased 5 new American Classic tires with the correct width whitewall and put them inside the car for a few days until I had time to get them installed. Some of the black from the tires bled through the protective plastic they were wrapped in, onto the rear seats, headrests and armrests. After seeing this, I turned my back on this car and didn't do anything else to it for about 4 years. I just washed the blue protective coating off the tires for the pictures. I have only put 1579 miles on this car since I bought it a little over 7 years ago and about 1050 of those miles were from Indianapolis to Houston via Tulsa, OK. The tires have less than 500 miles on them. The steering wheel has a crack at the top and the bottom, but the "rim blow" horn still works. I am including many extra parts to include: extra wheel cover, Auto Temp control module, Auto Temp II amplifier module and control head, factory rear window defrost with factory wiring harness and switch, extra dash panel,many extra door pull strap inserts, 2 radios, extra window motor, extra front turn signal lens, front passenger seat side panels to convert to electric (no wiring, switch, or seat frame with motors). The transmission has a leak but works fine. I have finally accepted the fact that I just don't have time for all of my classic cars and need to sell some. I have a 1991 Imperial for sale also and soon a 2004 Volvo V70 will be listed.

More Ram trucks recalled over tailgate issue

Wed, May 29 2019

Almost a year ago Fiat Chrysler recalled roughly 1.6 million Ram trucks over an issue with the locking power tailgate. The actuator limiter tab for the power locking mechanism could fracture, which would permit the actuator's lock-rod control to move beyond its limits. That would pull the locking rods open, thereby allowing the tailgate to open at any time. The 2018 recall covered Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500 pickups from the 2015 to 2017 model years, with the five-foot-seven and six-foot-four beds and the power locking tailgate option. Trucks with eight-foot beds, and those with manual-locking tailgates, were excluded. The trucks with eight-foot beds have been added to the recall as of earlier this month, putting 410,351 more trucks in the pool. According to Consumer Reports, Ram redesigned the locking assembly on the other two shorter bed sizes for trucks built after August 2, 2017, which was the end of the 2017 model year. But the eight-foot long-bed trucks didn't get the redesigned part until April 2, 2018 for some reason, making all eight-foot-bed pickups from the 2015 model year to April 1, 2018 part of the recall equation. FCA says it's not aware of any accidents or injuries because of the issue. The company plans to notify owners on June 28. The paperwork filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration doesn't advise owners to stop driving the trucks, but nor does it instruct owners on how to address the problem in the meantime. Sounds like bungee cords might be the go. The fix is estimated to take 30 minutes at the dealer and entails removing the tailgate cover and installing a stop block to prevent the locking actuator's pivot arm from traveling too far. FCA says it will reimburse owners for any other repairs made to address the problem. Meanwhile, owners can contact Fiat Chrysler Automobiles customer service at 800-853-1403, and refer to FCA's number for this recall, V44. The NHTSA campaign number is 19V-347. Last year's recall comes under FCA number U74, and NHTSA campaign number 18V-486. Ram's not alone on this field. The NHTSA continues to investigate the 2017 Ford Super Duty pickups for a similar issue.

Marchionne says Fiat Chrysler can make 6 million cars per year

Tue, 01 Apr 2014

The combined Fiat Chrysler Automobiles will see its production capacity increase from a projected 4.6 million in 2014 to 6 million units once it completes its integration, according to statements made by FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne.
"With the initiatives we will announce in May, six million is accessible," Marchionne said during a Fiat shareholders' meeting in Turin, according to The Detroit News. Marchionne is aiming to complete the merger between the Turin, Italy-based Fiat and the Auburn Hills, MI-based Chrysler by the end of this year.
Increasing production by 1.4 million units is no small order, particularly when combined Fiat and Chrysler sales have increased only modestly in the past few years - only 4.4 million units were sold in 2013, and while 4.6 million is projected for 2014, 4.5 million is also a distinct possibility. Six million units per year has been Marchionne's self-imposed goal for the combined automaker, according to The News, claiming that FCA would need to crest that point to achieve profitability.
