1965 Chrysler 300 - 2 Door Hard Top on 2040-cars

Year:1965 Mileage:100000
Location:

This car is equipped with a 383 4 barrel, runs great, but will probably need a fuel pump in the near future. It has power brakes and power steering. The glass is all in great shape and the headliner is really nice. Door panels and dash pad are in excellent shape. The seats do have some rips and it will need new carpet. There is a rust hole on the passenger side floor board which I took a photo of, but that can be patched pretty easily. The rest of the undercarriage looks to be structurally sound. The body does have some rust, but is a good candidate for restoration and is pretty solid. The stainless is in beautiful condition. The bumpers are not show quality, but can be cleaned up and be presentable for a driver car. The grill is in nice shape, factory headlight covers are in great shape. When I got the car it actually did have a brake pedal and did work, but has a slow leak somewhere (upon purchase car would have to be trailered or towed due to lack of brakes). I purchased a brand new master cylinder, wheel cylinders for all 4 corners, and two rubber brake hoses (all pictured), so it just needs a little elbow grease to get the brakes up to par. The previous owner was driving this car over the summer. I purchased this car 3 weeks ago with plans of doing an on-frame restoration when a local car that I had been trying to purchase for some time now became available. I now don't have the room or time to put into this vehicle. I'm starting this auction at much less than I paid for the car, mostly due to the fact that the brakes were working when I purchased and now they're not. This is a 2-door hard top and is a fairly rare car. I'm selling this at a very fair price and will not take less than my starting bid. Please bid on this car if you want to purchase it. Feel free to contact me with any questions and I will answer as soon as possible with the best of my knowledge. The car will have to be picked up as soon as possible after purchase. It is also for sale locally and I reserve the right to take it off Ebay if it sells. I am not interested in any trades. This car has a lot of potential and with some work could be an absolutely beautiful car.

FCA recalling 33k vans and SUVs for TPMS problems in two campaigns

Thu, 30 Oct 2014

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is issuing two, separate recalls covering a total of 33,443 examples in the US of the 2014 Ram ProMaster, 2014 Jeep Wrangler, 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan and 2014 Chrysler Town & Country because of potential problems with the tire pressure monitoring system in the vehicles.
The first campaign is for 23,053 units of the 2014 Ram ProMaster. It's possible for the TPMS to not recognize the location of the data coming from the sensors in the wheels. If this happens, then the low tire pressure warning light comes on and potentially gives the driver a false positive. If the warning isn't cleared, and drivers keep going, they might not be aware of another tire that actually has low pressure. This fix for this is a software update.
The second recall covers 10,390 examples of the 2014 Wrangler, Grand Caravan and Town & Country. According to FCA, it's possible that a test mode for the TPMS is still on since being shipped from the supplier. On affected vehicles, it could cause inaccurate pressure readings. The repair involves disabling that mode on the TPMS module.

Chrysler fires protest organizer at MI assembly plant

Tue, 12 Mar 2013

Chrysler has reportedly fired a Warren Stamping Plant worker for what the company is calling a violation of its code of conduct. Alex Wassell (left), a 20-year veteran with the automaker, was suspended without pay after he was quoted in an article in The Detroit News. The 63-year-old welder repairman helped organize a demonstration against a new work schedule and was protesting outside the Michigan plant on February 28 when he was interviewed. Chrysler then fired Wassell when the paper published his comments. Wassell, has since filed a grievance and says that he's looking for an amicable settlement between his union and his former employer.
Meanwhile, multiple civil liberties groups have spoken out against Chrysler's decision to dismiss Wassell. Both the National Lawyer's Guild and the American Civil Liberties Union have released statements on the situation, with the ACLU saying "Employees have a right to air their grievances, even if that means a public demonstration or a comments to the media."
According to The Detroit News, Chrysler spokesperson Jodi Tinson said that Wassell was fired for "engaging in activity constituting or appearing to constitute a conflict with the interest of the company."

Chrysler stays IPO until 2014

Mon, 25 Nov 2013

There will not be a Chrysler IPO in 2013. Fiat, according to a report from Forbes, has announced that it will not be able to make the American brand's initial public offering before the end of the year, saying that the short, five-week window that makes up the rest of 2013 is "not practicable."
Not surprisingly, the issue with the Chrysler IPO is the same as it's always been - a disagreement between parent company Fiat, which owns 58.5 percent of the Chrysler Group and a UAW healthcare trust, which owns 41.5 percent. Fiat wants to buy out the UAW VEBA healthcare trust, which is responsible for shouldering retiree healthcare costs, but the two sides are hung up on an actual price tag for the remaining two-fifths of the company.
The original idea saw an IPO as a way of setting a fair market price for the remaining shares, although it's not entirely clear what broke down and led to a delay of the IPO plan. As Forbes points out, by waiting until 2014, Chrysler could be risking a cool-off in the IPO market, which could mean less money in its pocket when the automaker finally goes public.
