1937 Chrysler Imperial C-14 Touring Sedan on 2040-cars
Garland, Utah, United States
I am selling my 1937 Chrysler Imperial C-14 Touring Sedan. There were only 11,976 of these cars produced. It has the 274 Cubic Inch straight 8 rated at 110 H.P. The car only has a couple of thousand miles on it after a ground up restoration. I purchased the car from the daughter of the guy who purchased it in2007 from a wrecking yard, he passed away a few years ago and his daughter took it over, it sat around for a few years in a storage shed. I bought it about a year ago and brought it back to life. I have a CD that has about 200 pictures of the car from the day it was bought up through the process until it was finished. I will include some of the pictures in my add.
I will go through and explain as many things as I can that I have done to the car since purchasing it, I'm sure I will forget a bunch. I have all of the receipts for the work the gentleman did and also all of my receipts.The car has new glass and rubber all the way around, I have the old glass if anyone would like it. I just had the bumpers,the bumperettes and the trunk hinges rechromed in February ( not cheap, but they look awesome ). The car had the motor, trans and differential completely rebuilt and in the last couple of months every oil on the car has been drained and replaced, new antifreeze, new belt, the generator was rebuilt last month and the 6 volt battery is brand new. It has newer brakes and brake fluid, rebuilt original Stromberg carb. It has the original 3 speed transmission with the factory overdrive, the car cruises at 65 M.P.H effortlessly. It has the roll out windshield I had every gauge rebuilt to keep it all original,every gauge and light work including the rare factory electric clock. As you can see from the pictures the spare tire is brand new and all 4 Firestone tires on the car are pretty much new. I have some spare paint left over and made myself some touch up bottles and quite a few extra original parts. There is also quite a bit of spare fabric and carpet left over. This car really does run and drive beautifully, it's definitely one you could jump in and drive right now, it needs nothing. I will leave the shipping up to the new buyer but I will help any way I can. If the car is sold I would like to have a $500.00 deposit as soon as possible and then settle up the rest as quickly as we could. Please feel free to call me with any questions, Ron @ 435-339-9010. Thanks for looking. |

Dodge Durango to stay classy with Ron Burgundy as spokesperson [w/video]
Sat, 05 Oct 2013The upcoming 2014 Dodge Durango has a lot of things going for it, including its 290-horsepower V6 and 360-hp Hemi V8 engine options, an eight-speed automatic and aggressive looks. And now it will have Ron Burgundy, the fictional television news anchor played by comedian Will Ferrell, as a spokesperson, Adweek reports. He follows in the footsteps of other non-fictional Chrysler brand spokespeople such as Eminem, Clint Eastwood and the late Paul Harvey.
Though the star of 2004's Anchorman and the upcoming Anchorman 2 is wildly popular, we're not sure we see a Dodge spokesperson in Burgundy. (Please, no womanizing or scotchy, scotch, scotch before test test drives). But at this point there's no turning back: Chrysler's chief marketing officer Olivier Francois previewed three ad spots at the Association of National Advertisers (ANA) Masters of Marketing conference in Phoenix on Friday, and says Chrysler has already filmed 68(!) Durango ads with the fictional newsman.
According to Adweek, one of the ads previewed had Burgundy highlighting the SUV's glovebox size, and in another he compared its horsepower to a white horse standing next to him. Will this help Dodge Durango sales improve? We can only wait and see. In the meantime, feel free to share your thoughts in Comments, and check out the trailer for Anchorman 2 below.
China-FCA merger could be a win-win for everyone but politicians
Tue, Aug 15 2017NEW YORK — Fiat Chrysler boss Sergio Marchionne has said the car industry needs to come together, cut costs and stop incinerating capital. So far, his words have mostly fallen on deaf ears among competitors in Europe and North America. But it appears Marchionne has finally found a receptive audience — in China. FCA shares soared Monday after trade publication Automotive News reported the $18 billion Italian-American conglomerate controlled by the Agnelli family rebuffed a takeover from an unidentified carmaker from the Chinese mainland. As ugly as the politics of such a combination may appear at first blush, a transaction could stack up industrially, and perhaps even financially. A Sino-U.S.-European merger would create the first truly global auto group. That could push consolidation to the next level elsewhere. Moreover, China is the world's top market for the SUVs that Jeep effectively invented, so it might benefit FCA financially. A combo would certainly help upgrade the domestic manufacturer; Chinese carmakers have gotten better at making cars, but struggle to build global brands, and they need to develop export markets. Though frivolous overseas shopping excursions by Chinese enterprises are being reined in by Beijing, acquisitions that support the modernization and transformation of strategic industries still receive support, and the government considers the automotive industry to be strategic. A purchase of FCA by Guangzhou Automobile, Great Wall or Dongfeng Motors would probably get the same stamp of approval ChemChina was given for its $43 billion takeover of Syngenta. What's standing in the way? Apart from price (Automotive News said FCA's board deemed the offer insufficient) there's the not-insignificant matter of politics. Even as FCA shares soared, President Donald Trump interrupted his vacation to instruct the U.S. Trade Representative to look into whether to investigate China's trade policies on intellectual property. Seeing storied Detroit brands like Jeep, Chrysler, Ram and Dodge handed off to a Chinese company would provoke howls among Trump's economic-nationalist supporters. It might not play well in Italy, either, to see Alfa Romeo and Maserati answering to Wuhan instead of Turin — though Automotive News said they might be spun off separately. Yet, as Morgan Stanley observes, "cars don't ship across oceans easily," and political considerations increasingly demand local manufacture of valuable products.
Ward's Automotive Ten Best Engines of 2014 dominated by diesels, turbos
Thu, 12 Dec 2013With 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.
