Rust free 1979 Chrysler Cordoba.  Recently Shipped out from California. 360-2v V-8 with NO Lean Burn! Over $2300 worth of recent work including:

- New oil and filter with Mobil 1
- Complete Transmission service, bands adjusted and new filter
- New Tires
- New Brakes and Wheel Cylinders
- New Ball joints and Tie rod ends
- Just Aligned
- Carburetor completely rebuilt
- New Cap, rotor, plugs and wires
- Wiper Linkage Completely rebuilt

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.

Chrysler appoints new heads of Alfa Romeo and Ram

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

Chrysler has announced to two key appointments to its senior leadership, both of them taking immediate effect. First up is Reid Bigland, who has been named head of the Alfa Romeo brand for North America. Bigland has served until now as head of the Ram Truck brand, a portfolio he now hands over to Robert Hegbloom, who had served until now as its director.
As a result of the appointments, both Bigland and Hegbloom will take up seats on Chrysler's NAFTA Leadership Team, and Bigland will also join the Fiat Chrysler Group Executive Council - the highest decision-making body in the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles empire.
As per Sergio Marchionne's leadership style, Bigland will continue to serve in two major capacities, maintaining his role as president and CEO of Chrysler Canada. Other senior executives who hold multiple key portfolios include Harald Wester (who serves as the group's Chief Technology Officer and also overseas Alfa Romeo, Maserati and Abarth), Olivier Francois (group Chief Marketing Officer and head of the Fiat brand) and Michael Manley (head of the Asia-Pacific region and the Jeep brand).

Chrysler 300C John Varvatos Limited Edition returns for 2014 with AWD option

Thu, 30 Jan 2014

Before last year, many of us car guys had no idea who John Varvatos was. That all changed when the Detroit-native fashion designer lent his talents to the Chrysler 300 to create the snazzy, special-edition 300C John Varvatos models. The fashionable sedan returns for 2014 with two versions (Luxury and Limited), and the only big news here is that the latter model will be getting an optional all-wheel-drive system.
Distinguishing the Luxury and Limited models, the Luxury comes with Platinum exterior accents and is offered in a handful of colors while the Limited gets darker Titanium accents and only comes with a Phantom Black Tri-Coat paint job. Both cars get an exclusive interior design with special leathers, patterns and colors worthy of the designer's name and logo. The JV Edition is the only 300C to offer a V6 engine, but V8 lovers can still opt up for the powerful Hemi engine.
It would appear that the Luxury Edition is already on sale, but you'll have to wait until March for the 2014 JV Limited Edition, which, according to a Chrysler spokesperson, will be "limited from a production timing standpoint." The JV Luxury Edition starts at $41,195 and the Limited Edition will have a starting price of $44,480 (*not including $995 for destination) - both cars can be optioned with all-wheel drive for $2,500. Scroll down for the press release on the 300C John Varvatos Limited Edition.

Chrysler Town & Country plug-in hybrid minivan coming in 2015

Mon, 06 Oct 2014

Among the multitude of models that Fiat Chrysler Automobiles announced as part of its five-year production plan in May was a plug-in hybrid version of the Town & Country minivan for sometime in 2016. However, according to the latest pronouncement from company CEO Sergio Marchionne, that timetable may have been moved forward quite a bit.
Marchionne told Automotive News at the Paris Motor Show that the PHEV minivan would now be launching in late 2015. That strategy does seem a bit confusing, though, because the next-gen platform for the T&C isn't supposed to hit the road until sometime in 2016, according to the plan. So it's not clear whether the boss means the PHEV rides on the current chassis or if the new model is going on sale early.
The technology underpinning the new plug-in hybrid has been shrouded in mystery. However, during the five-year plan meeting, FCA claimed the model could earn fuel economy figures around 75 mpge. Chrysler previously tested a 25-unit fleet of them as part of a demonstration test in Auburn Hills, MI, in 2012, but that didn't go so well.
