Hello there prospective bidders,

This is a 1950 Chrysler Royal with only 32141 miles; I purchased it  from an adorable little old lady who had it parked in her garage since her husband died in 1968.  He was the original and only owner. He really must have loved this car because he took very good care of it. I love this car also and when I started working on it I intended to keep it forever, however I also have a 1965 Impala that has been languishing on jack stands now for a few years so I've decided to pass this beauty on for someone else to enjoy.  

I have been through this car with a fine toothed comb and except for the door moldings which are still good I have changed everything that has rubber in it. Everything works as it should in this car including the lighter, and it is ready to drive anywhere including cross country. The Fluidmatic shifts great and is a pleasure to drive.  The following is a list of things I have done to this car, I’m a mechanic not a body guy so the car still has the original paint, you can see in the pics under the car where the undercoating has fallen off that the paint is still shiny. She is unmolested and like a time capsule.

I adapted the rims for new heavy duty Hankook tubeless tires.  NOS fuel tank coated inside and out. New fuel sending unit and calibrated with gauge in dash. New fuel pump.   Entire new brake system including master cylinder.  Rebuilt distributor and vacuum advance.  Rebuilt starter.  Rebuilt generator.  New plugs and wires. Repacked front and rear bearings with new seals.  Rebuilt carburetor.   Repacked U Joints.  Removed cleaned and greased wiper motor and linkages.  Changed oil, dropped oil pan and cleaned residue from the old oil.  Changed transmission oil  not once but 2x. Changed rear end oil same 2x. All new coolant hoses. New exhaust. Dropped cleaned filter housing and installed drain plug.  

Spares with the car, 2 manuals one is new.  Oil pressure gauge hose.  2 headlights. New coil.  4 Hub caps. New hub puller for rear wheels. I have a color copy of the original title; I had to turn the original in for the registration. Original spare tire, tire tools and even unused green wood tire chock. I also have anything I took off the car including the old tires and brake cylinders if you should want them.   

This really is a great car and I hope it goes to someone who will appreciate it. You can feel safe to drive it anywhere and I have even had my 4yo daughter’s baby seat in it (I had to pull the rear seat to find suitable anchors for it).

Buyers this car is in fantastic shape for being 64 y/o , like I said, I'm not a body and paint guy so if any paint came off the car I touched it up with some primer to keep it protected. You can rest assured that there is only good clean 1950's metal on this car.  Please look closely at the pics and around the wheel wells, it all clean. If you would like additional pics, I can send them to you.

Buyer is responsible for shipping. If you have any questions call or text me at 347-204-6477 and I will get back to you.

Good luck and happy bidding.

Thanks for looking.

Did a US automaker blow the whistle on Hyundai, Kia fuel economy issue?

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

In all of the most hotly contested mainstream segments of the motoring universe, the difference of one mile per gallon averaged on a widow sticker can mean the difference between a sale and a walk-off - to say nothing of two or three mpg. So, when Hyundai and Kia were forced to reveal that many of their 40-mpg ratings were actually 38s and 37s, well, it made for big news.
It also, conceivably, made for a competitive disadvantage immediately, when the Korean automakers' products were being shopped versus the guys down the block. And it's that disadvantage that makes a recent story from Automotive News so juicy.
AN is reporting that Margo Oge, former head of the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Transportation and Air Quality, got a tip in 2010 that Hyundai/Kia were "cheating" to get its impressive fuel economy numbers. The tip, said Oge (who retired from the EPA this past September), came from a senior vice president from a domestic automaker. The source was credible enough for Oge to launch an audit of the Hyundai figures, which ultimately lead to the debacle that we reported on a few months ago, and that the Korean company has been trying to bounce back from ever since.

NHTSA preparing to wallop FCA, automaker 'failed to do its job'

Sat, Jul 4 2015

As embattled the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may be, but that certainly doesn't mean it isn't willing or able to put the smack down on automakers that violate its recall procedures. Following a public hearing on Thursday, the government safety arm is preparing what will likely be some very serious punishments for Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. FCA stands accused of mishandling 23 individual recalls covering some 11 million vehicles since 2013, with NHTSA claiming the Italian-American automaker kept it "in the dark," failing to notify the government of safety defects. Uncle Sam also alleges that FCA failed to notify consumers of important safety notices and didn't provide a steady supply of replacement parts. For these charges, the automaker could be fined up to $35 million per recall, which could mean a maximum of $805 million in fines. FCA could also be forced to buy back the unrepaired vehicles. "We have serious concerns with Fiat Chrysler notifications to owners and to NHTSA about its recalls. In every one of the 23 recalls, we have identified ways in which Fiat Chrysler failed to do its job," Jennifer Timian, the head of the Office of Defects Investigation, said during the FCA hearing, The Detroit News reports. The company also "repeatedly failed to provide NHTSA with other critical information about its recalls, including changes to the vehicles impacted by the recalls and its plans for remedying those vehicles." Fiat Chrysler, for its part, didn't really fight back during its hearing, although Scott Kunselman (shown above during the hearing), the senior vice president of vehicle safety and regulatory affairs at FCA, did tell The News that, "We absolutely had no mis-intent." "The plan is to move forward," Kunselman said, adding that the company has "fallen short," and that "some of the things we've done were sloppy." NHTSA administrator Mark Rosekind told The News that the regulator would issue its sanctions by the end of July, adding that he saw no way that FCA could avoid punishment.

2017 Chrysler Pacifica is perfect for town and country

Mon, Jan 11 2016

The Pacifica has returned. In a surprising move, Chrysler revived the name of its old three-row CUV for the long-serving Town & Country's replacement. That's a bold strategy. Let's see if it pays off. Chrysler's new minivan offers a tremendous improvement on its predecessor in terms of interior and exterior design, available technology, and powertrain. Design inspiration is most clearly drawn from the brand's 200 sedan, both inside and out. Gone are the egg-crate grille, blocky headlights, and vertical taillights of the old van, all of which have been replaced with slim, stylish units. Doubtlessly destined for high-end trims, Chrysler will also offer a 200-style, two-tone interior with over 35 inches of screen real estate. 8.4 inches are reserved for the central UConnect display, while drivers have their own seven-inch display in the instrument cluster. As for the kiddies, they're the big winners, with a pair of ten-inch touchscreen displays in the back. Underhood, the big news is reserved for the new plug-in-hybrid powertrain. You can read all about that here. For right now, we'll focus on the familiar 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and its accompanying nine-speed automatic transmission. There is 287 horsepower, 262 pound-feet of torque, and what will likely be a healthy improvement in fuel economy over the old Town & Country. You can read much more on the all-new Pacifica from our original post last night. We've also got a fresh gallery of live images from its big debut here at Detroit's Cobo Center, available up top.
