1963 Chrysler Imperial Crown RARE!!!!
This was a top of the line cars in 1963!!
Chrysler's motto for the car was "America's Most Carefully Built Car"

The 24 pictures I've posted should speak for themselves, it's a really nice car!!

This car features: Four Power Windows (they all work), Power Brakes, A/C, Automatic Push Button Transmission, and a 413 cubic Inch V8. Also has the rare "Autopilot" Option (A precursor to modern cruise control). The car has approximately 72,000 actual and original miles.

It runs and drives excellent but has a exhaust leak but doesn't effect drivability. The automatic push button transmission works perfect.

The car is tagged and inspected in Delaware. New Paint Job and Seats were reupholstered with new seat covers.
Straight solid body with good lines on it. The pictures speak for themselves, it's a definite a head turner. Just hop in it and drive. It is not a perfect show car but has been enjoyed as a driver to cruise in.

According to some paperwork with the car, the car was purchased brand new in Wilmington, Delaware in 1962 by a Delaware Buyer at a dealership called "Hollywood Perkins." It was later dealership maintained in the mid-1960s by CF Schwartz Delaware (which is still in business today and about 10 minutes away from where I live). As far as I know this has been a Delaware car it's whole life.

This car is as good as it looks but in-person inspections of the car are welcomed and encouraged.
Also, a Youtube walk around of the vehicle below.

Is Chrysler's 'America's Import' campaign outdated or offensive? [w/poll]

Tue, 04 Nov 2014

Chrysler launched its America's Import campaign with a splashy ad during the Super Bowl starring Bob Dylan and featuring a whole bunch of patriotic imagery that included Marilyn Monroe, James Dean, factory employees and, of course, the city of Detroit. Since then, the brand has followed the original spot with even more ads using the same tagline. Not everyone is pleased, it seems, including The Detroit Free Press auto critic Mark Phelan, who's fed up with the marketing. In an editorial for the newspaper, Phelan claims that it's insulting to the US auto industry and its workers.
"The phrase 'America's import,' with its suggestion that 'import' equals 'better,' feels terribly dated, a relic of the 1980s. It's the rhetorical equivalent of hanging a pastel-hued 'Miami Vice' poster on your office wall," writes Phelan in the piece. Also, since some of the brand's cars are made in Canada, the line isn't even entirely true, he claims. Phelan goes on to praise the company's earlier Imported from Detroit commercials for getting the right message across and showing pride in the city.
While "America's Import" might be the tagline for Chrysler's ads, it's not the whole message. Subsequent ads keep the hard-working, patriotic imagery from the original Super Bowl spot but put a bigger emphasis on the Chrysler 200 that the commercials are meant to sell.

What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name

Thu, 07 Aug 2014

The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?

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.
