 This car was bought by my father in 1973 from the Dudley Bros. dealership in Comanche Texas.  The car was taken in trade there in 1966 then parked behind the dealership until 1973 when an auction was held and my father acquired it with the intentions of using it as parts car for his 1956 Imperial at the time.  Fortunately for this 56 New Yorker his plans never materialized and it remained intact.  My father in the mid 80's gave it to me and it has been in my possession ever since.  From about 1989 to 1998 it was driven on a regular basis then parked as a result of needing a brake job.  Only recently in the last few weeks have I begun the process of rebuilding the brakes and cleaning out the fuel system.  The factory WCFB Carter 4bbl carburetor has been rebuilt and runs great. 

It currently is very dusty and sitting on 4 jack stands in my shop garage while I complete the brakes.  The pictures that you see here were taken a couple of years ago when I pulled out to wash it and take pictures of it next to my 1956 Desoto which I had at the time.  Basically aside from recent dust accumulation from sitting in my shop last couple of years the car looks exactly the same.  I no longer have the Desoto as I sold it shortly after taking these pictures.

This car has lived its entire life in Texas and has been stored for the last 40yrs inside out of the elements when not on a road trip.  All this to say is that this is a VERY SOLID basically rust free car with the exception of one spot on the passenger front fender down low where leafs apparently collected inside the fender at the dealership.  There is a spot about the size of a 1/2 dollar where it rusted a hole from the inside out.

This car ran great when parked and always started right up.  With its Power Steering, Power Brakes, AutoTransmission & Hemi it was a real pleasure to drive and still will be.

PLEASE contact me with any questions you might have.  Thanks for your time and interest!

Fiat Chrysler CEO says final merger talks with Peugeot going well

Thu, Jan 23 2020

BRUSSELS — Fiat Chrysler's chief executive Michael Manley said on Wednesday that merger talks with Peugeot owner PSA  to create the world's No. 4 carmaker are progressing well and he hopes to have a deal within 12-14 months. Speaking to Reuters on the sidelines of an industry meeting, he said he doesn't expect any major obstacles that could delay a final agreement. "Talks are progressing really well," Manley said about negotiations with the French carmaker ahead of a briefing by the European automotive association (ACEA), of which he is president. His comments come a month after the two carmakers agreed to a binding deal worth about $50 billion to combine forces in response to a slowdown in global demand and mounting costs of making cleaner vehicles amid tighter emissions regulations. Manley's timeline for completing the deal by early 2021 is in line with a forecast made by the companies in December. Fiat and Peugeot are now getting into the details of how the merger will work, including choosing which vehicle platforms — the technological underpinnings of a vehicle — will fit which products in a combined company. Because customers in different locations still prefer vastly different cars, there is room for multiple platforms in a combined group, Manley said. "That global platform is an elusive beast," he added. "This concept of a massive global platform in my mind is almost a myth, but that doesnÂ’t mean to say weÂ’re not going to recruit significant volume." Related Video:    

Chrysler Recalling 870,000 SUVs For Brake Defect

Wed, Apr 2 2014

Chrysler is recalling nearly 870,000 SUVs because corrosion may make the vehicles' brakes harder to use. Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from the 2011 through 2014 model years are involved. Chrysler says crimp joints in the brake boosters can corrode if they're exposed to water. If the water freezes, the boosters won't aid braking as they usually do. Chrysler began investigating after some customers said their brakes felt too firm when pressed down. The company knows of one accident, but no injuries, due to the defect. Dealers will install a shield to protect the boosters for free and replace boosters that aren't working properly. Chrysler has since changed the design to make the boosters more corrosion resistant. Chrysler will notify owners of the recall, which involves 867,795 vehicles.

Pickup prices rising at 2x industry average

Tue, 11 Jun 2013

We've said it before, but bears repeating: Pickup trucks are the financial engines of America's automakers. Good thing, then, that the segment is in rude health - in fact, Automotive News is suggesting that pickup truck sales are arguably healthier than they were pre-recession, even though the segment's volume is still significantly down from where it was before the bottom fell out of the US economy. That's because per-unit profits on full-size trucks are skyrocketing, outpacing the industry's average price increases by more than double since 2005. According to data from Edmunds, the average transaction price of a full-size pickup is now $39,915 - a heady increase over the $31,059 average price in 2005 - a gain of over 8 percent after inflation is factored in.
Just how important are trucks to automakers' bottom lines? Automotive News quotes a Morgan Stanley analyst as saying the Ford F-Series is responsible for 90 percent of the company's 2012 profits, and General Motors isn't far behind, with the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra twins chipping in about two-thirds of the automaker's earnings.
Automotive News points out that Detroit's automakers now have the money to invest in modernizing their full-size truck offerings, in part because they don't have the same overhead and legacy costs that pushed General Motors and Chrysler into bankruptcy. Certainly, the pickup segment has seen a lot of innovations as of late, including turbocharged V6s, coil-spring rear suspensions and active aero. Those improvements in important areas like fuel economy and ride comfort have given existing pickup buyers new reasons to upgrade. In addition, automakers are piling on the tech and luxury goodies, creating more and more high-content, high-profit models like the Ford F-150 King Ranch, Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn and Chevrolet Silverado High Country (shown).
