     Up for your bidding consideration is an extremely clean 1983 Cordoba.   As it has been stored indoors it's entire life, very lightly used and devoid of the calamities that usually befall a car of this era. Some of you might recall seeing this car listed on ebay over the summer. I was the high bidder on the car and at that time, the odometer was showing approx. 19,700 miles. I've since put some 1600+ trouble free miles on her but sadly, a change in employment dictates it's sale.

      Sporting just 21,396 original miles, this handsome survivor has been treated to a number of preventative maintenance measures. Though the fellow I had bought it from took very good care of the car, out of an abundance of caution, I performed the following before pressing it into service:

r&r trans fluid and filter                                 r&r rear brake shoes
r&r rear differential lube                                r&r brake hoses
r&r antifreeze                                                 r&r brake fluid
r&r thermostat                                                r&r suspension bushings
r&r radiator hoses                                           r&r shocks
r&r heater hoses                                            r&r air filter
r&r plug wires                                                  r&r headlights
r&r cap and rotor                                             r&r fuel filter
r&r all fan belts

   Of note, the battery was replaced on the day I picked it up. The tires were original as well, but at 30 years old, they were coming apart at the seams, so they have since been replaced with a new set of BF Goodrich radial T/A's. The stereo was also replaced with a Sony CD/MP3/USB unit and new rear speakers, which sound incredible.

    The interior is very nice with no rips or tears in the seats. As you can imagine, with the low number of miles accumulated in all those years, the seats weren't sat in very much, so they've maintained their shape quite well. The carpet shows little wear, the headliner is still attached to the roof, the gauges all work and the dash has no cracks.

     The landau top is in excellent condition as is all of them chrome. The power windows, power trunk release, power door locks and cruise control all function as they should, as does all of the lighting.

    As with any car of this vintage, there are bound to be a few blemishes. The original paint holds up very well, but there are several small stone chips and few scratches in the clear coat here and there, mostly on the trunk lid. The right rear wheel well molding is scuffed and the plastic seat belt covers are cracked. The heat does work, but is a little slow to come up. The a/c was converted over to 134a by the previous owner. When I bought the car it was working but needed a little boost. I put a small can of refrigerant in it and brought it back up to snuff, but please bear in mind, it is a 30 year old system and may need another shot come springtime.

     Overall it is a very clean, easy to drive car with an amazing 21,396 original miles on the clock. Don't miss this once in a lifetime opportunity to own a piece of 80's Chrysler history not involving a K car. Act now and receive an autographed copy of Disco Inferno by the Trammps. Disclaimer: Autographed by me that is, not the Trammps.

Please ask any questions prior to bidding and I will answer them to the best of my ability.

The Aficianauto sets his lens on Black Beauty

Fri, 24 Jan 2014

In the short time we've known about the works of The Aficionauto, we've become fans of the video series highlighting some of the most famous and iconic movie/television cars ever. While past episodes featured cars from 1980s movies and tv shows, the latest video shows off the 1965 Chrysler Imperial affectionately known as Black Beauty We saw the Imperial for the first time at the 2009 Comic-Con; the car actually used in the 2011 action comedy The Green Hornet.
Of the 30 cars made for the movie, host Chris Rutkowski says that Sony only preserved two, and if you're a collector of movie cars, this one is currently being sold for $165,000. Scroll down to watch as Rutkowski takes Black Beauty for a spin through Beverly Hills, CA with its assortment of exposed weapons including the hood-mounted machine guns, numerous missiles and flame thrower.

Ward's Automotive Ten Best Engines of 2014 dominated by diesels, turbos

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

With the Car and Driver Ten Best decided, the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists announced and Cadillac, Ram and Subaru chalking up wins with Motor Trend, it's fair to say that the automotive awards season is in full swing. The next set of trophies to be handed out will be from Ward's Automotive, which has announced the winners of its 2014 10 Best Engines.
The latest contest was marked by the widespread emergence of diesel power and the continued success of turbocharged engines. There was even an electric motor on this year's list. In fact, only three of the ten winners were naturally aspirated and only two winners returned from last year.
"We weren't looking to throw the bums out, as they might say about an election. We were just really impressed with the flood of new powertrains," said Ward's Automotive Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter. Those new powertrains include the 83-kilowatt electric motor from the Fiat 500e, the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Ford Fiesta and the 2.0-liter turbodiesel from the Chevrolet Cruze.

Unboxing Chrysler's ridiculous Pacifica board game/media kit

Sat, Jan 30 2016

At auto shows, manufacturers often hand out new-model info on USB sticks. It's how we get the press releases and photos onto our computers quickly and easily. Some still use brochures, which direct you to a website to download the relevant files. And then there's Chrysler, which often dreams up elaborate packages to transport the information and make a big impact. That's what it did for the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica, which made its debut in gasoline and plug-in hybrid versions at the 2016 North American International Auto Show earlier this month. The Pacifica press kit is in a zippered folder along with the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica Race to the Family Reunion board game. To share this with you, we decided to make use of one of the internet's stranger formats, the unboxing video. You can watch our version above and learn a little more about what's inside the silver pouch – besides a USB stick and a brochure. Want one of your own? Silly media kits like these usually pop up on eBay from time to time. But ours and our ethics are not for sale.
