Car runs and drives very well.The motor has approx. 30k on a rebuild..my mechanic thinks it has a cam in it as it idles a bit lumpy and has better power than most 360s. Radiator was replaced at the same time.  Car has Incredible oil pressure...runs at the top of the gauge...even hot..on the road.  Uses absolutely no oil.  The car does not leak, burn or use any fluids.  The motor does not smoke, knock or tick and the transmission (torqueflite 904) shifts as it should. The car always starts easily- hot or cold.  Needs a vacuum advance installed on the distributor (I have the part, but runs well enough that I haven't bothered to put it in yet) and a rear tranny mount replaced, it's a little loose- will cure the slight driveline vibration that it has. A/C is currently inop but the compressor has a rebuild tag on it...haven't looked into it and the cruise linkage is unhooked from the carb...haven't looked into that either.

The front seat was reupholstered at some point in a different cloth and is a little faded.  Dash is good with no cracks. Even the digital clock works and keeps good time!

Although the car is very rust free and the chrome is in very good condition, the paint is definitely a 10 footer with fading on the top surfaces and some peeling around the edges and around the sunroof. The car was originally 2-tone Spinnaker White and Nightwatch Blue but was painted in the past what appears to be B-5 blue. Has (5) of the rare(r) cast turbine wheel covers. There is also some scaly rust in the trunk where it has leaked in the past.  Being a CA car, the door window seals and trunk gasket are a bit dry and crumbly. My mechanic loves working on this car as the underneath is so clean...there isn't even surface rust under there. I have personally driven this car on several 200-600 mile trips with no issues whatsoever. The car averages about 12-15 MPG around town and 18 MPG or so on the highway.  I have seen 21 MPG on a trip. I get 'thumbs up' and waves and smiles every time I drive the car.  I would love to keep it.

All in all a nice and reliable car... I was planning on keeping it, so I made sure it was done right, but lost my winter storage...and the car is too clean to leave out in the weather this coming winter. I can assist you with shipping as I  am familiar with it...but ultimately the pick-yp of the car is up to you.  Will be more than happy to meet your shipper or pick you up at the airport/bus terminal/train station if you choose to drive it home. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or if you would like more pictures.

FCA and PSA sign merger agreement

Wed, Dec 18 2019

Confirming an earlier rumor, PSA Group and Fiat-Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) signed a binding merger agreement to create the world's fourth-largest automaker. The partners hope to leverage the benefits of economies of scale as they develop new technologies and expand their global presence. The announcement ends FCA's years-long search for a partner, which nearly ended earlier in 2019 when it came close to merging with Renault, PSA's rival. It brings Fiat, Chrysler, Dodge, Ram, Jeep, Alfa Romeo, Maserati, Lancia, Peugeot, Citroen, DS, and Opel/Vauxhall under the same roof. That's a huge portfolio of brands that often overlap, but executives pledged to keep them all open, as well as all their respective factories as a result of the transaction. They're committed to making this big family of automakers work by building on each one's strengths, whether they're technical or regional. FCA and PSA jointly predicted they'll sell about 8.7 million cars annually around the globe, while posting an ˆ11 billion (about $12.2 million) profit. North America, a strong market for FCA, will provide 43% of its revenues, and 46% will be generated in Europe, where Peugeot's brands are doing better than ever. Together, they plan to achieve ˆ3.7 billion (about $4.1 million) in annual run-rate synergies. They'll notably have the purchasing power to negotiate a better price with suppliers, and they'll merge their research and development efforts where it makes sense to do so. Over two thirds of the group's annual volume will be built on two shared platforms. One will underpin about three million small cars annually, and the other will serve as the foundation for approximately three million compact and mid-sized cars. Details about these architectures haven't been made public yet, but a quick look at both companies' product portfolios reveals the small car will very likely come from Peugeot. Recent additions to its range, like the second-generation 208, are built on a new architecture named Common Modular Platform (CMP) developed with electric powertrains in mind. Meanwhile, Fiat is still making the cheeky 500 on an evolution of the platform found under the second-generation Panda released in 2003. The bigger architecture could come from FCA, however. The group's brands will share engines, transmissions, electric powertrains, infotainment systems, various sensors used to power electronic driving aids, and other components like wiring looms, but each one will retain its own identity.

The problem with how automakers confront hacking threats

Thu, Jul 30 2015

More than anyone, Chris Valasek and Charlie Miller are responsible for alerting Americans to the hacking perils awaiting them in their modern-day cars. In 2013, the pair of cyber-security researchers followed in the footsteps of academics at the University of Cal-San Diego and University of Washington, demonstrating it was possible to hack and control cars. Last summer, their research established which vehicles contained inherent security weaknesses. In recent weeks, their latest findings have underscored the far-reaching danger of automotive security breaches. From the comfort of his Pittsburgh home, Valasek exploited a flaw in the cellular connection of a Jeep Cherokee and commandeered control as Miller drove along a St. Louis highway. Remote access. No prior tampering with the vehicle. An industry's nightmare. As a result of their work, FCA US recalled 1.4 million cars, improving safety for millions of motorists. For now, Valasek and Miller are at the forefront of their profession. In a few months, they could be out of jobs. Rather than embrace the skills of software and security experts in confronting the unforeseen downside of connectivity in cars, automakers have been doing their best to stifle independent cyber-security research. Lost in the analysis of the Jeep Cherokee vulnerabilities is the possibility this could be the last study of its kind. In September or October, the U.S. Copyright Office will issue a key ruling that could prevent third-party researchers like Valasek and Miller from accessing the components they need to conduct experiments on vehicles. Researchers have asked for an exemption in the Digital Millennial Copyright Act that would preserve their right to analyze cars, but automakers have opposed that exemption, claiming the software that runs almost every conceivable vehicle function is proprietary. Further, their attorneys have argued the complexity of the software has evolved to a point where safety and security risks arise when third parties start monkeying with the code. Their message on cyber security is, as it has been for years, that they know their products better than anyone else and that it's dangerous for others to meddle with them. But in precise terms, the Jeep Cherokee problems show this is not the case. Valasek and Miller discovered the problem, a security hole in the Sprint cellular connection to the UConnect infotainment system, not industry insiders.

Fiat-Chrysler alliance in jeopardy due to Pentastar's IPO filing?

Thu, 26 Sep 2013

The four-year relationship between Fiat and Chrysler has thus far been beneficial for both automakers, but it has also proven to be a complicated battle between Sergio Marchionne and the United Auto Workers - the latter controlling the remaining 41.5 percent of Chrysler. With the recent filing for a US IPO, it looks like Marchionne and the UAW appear to be playing a billion-dollar game of chicken, with both sides far apart on how much the union's shares are worth. If it comes down to Chrysler's remaining stake being publicly traded, it could act to drive a wedge between the two companies.
According to Bloomberg, Fiat's chairman John Elkann says "if the IPO will take place, there will be two companies, and that's different than having a single one." Now, we're not great at math, but this sounds like the complete opposite of the full merger that Marchionne has been pushing for since taking the helm at Chrysler. Bloomberg notes that the UAW's shares should be worth around $5.6 billion, but Fiat could end up paying as little as $4.9 billion for Fiat to gain full control of Chrysler. A story by The Detroit News points out that Marchionne's "alleged low-balling" is just the latest hurdle the Auburn Hills-based automaker must overcome as its ownership is being fought over for the fourth time in 15 years.
