1970 Chrysler Imperial LeBaron survivor car.  First the bad:  This original comes with original dings, dents, and scratches that a car will pick up from use, but all are minor.  Some cracks on the rear corner markers from what appears to be a light swipe - both sides, unfortunately.  Headliner in the rear driver-side corner is beginning to come loose, but is intact.  Vinyl top under the rear window was repaired (underneath has some surface rust but is solid).   Some sealing repair to the trunk - rubber seal was replaced with an alternative that honestly isn't cutting it.  Radio is not factory, and there is a crack in the steering wheel.  Motor could use a tune-up, and the front end could use adjustment to the alignment.  Some of the interior stitching in the seats is beginning to stretch, but there are no rips or tears.  Valve cover gasket has a slight leak, and the radiator is not original, but is still a chrysler manufacture.  NOW THE GOOD:  The interior carpet is immaculate - nice and plush, and not faded or threadbare.  Paint is original, everything works (we haven't tried the AC - probably it needs a recharge), including those pesky diaphragms for the headlights!  Some great details included are that ALL EMBLEMS are intact!  All the chrome is nice and shiny - "imperial" lettering is all there and looking good.  Hubcaps all bear the eagle emblem.  Original rubber floor mat with crest.  Even the extra seat belts mounted over the front doors are there!  Somewhere in this car's history, somebody had the wherewithal to get the underside coated, and the result is that aside from surface rust on exposed heavy metal pieces, the fuel tank, floor pans, and so on are rust free.  The body panels are also rust free with the exception of some surface rust at a few of the seams.  Power windows and seats, and a very smooth ride.  We can account for half of the car's life.  Alternator is new, and new brake master cylinder seal makes for good stops.  We have in the past year driven the car for several hours at a time, and it was smooth all the way.  It is a TRUE SURVIVOR, and a great, rare find - one of only about 11,000 made.  Odometer reads 21K, but likely it has flipped once and is 121K - 200k would make a lot more wear.  Take a look at the pics - there is much to see and scrutinize, but you WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.  Please don't hesitate to ask any questions.  Thanks for looking!

Waymo heads to Atlanta to test its self-driving cars

Mon, Jan 22 2018

Waymo continues to expand the pool of locations where it's testing its autonomous vehicle tech, and the latest destination is metro Atlanta. The former Google self-driving car company revealed the news on Twitter, noting that it's expanding considerably its geographic testing footprint now that it's got fully driverless test vehicles on the road in Phoenix. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Its test cars in cities outside of Arizona still have safety drivers at the wheel, but the more places it can get its Pacificas with autonomous tech on roads, the better for building an autonomous driving "brain" that can handle anything it encounters. Atlanta has some specific challenges, including bad traffic (commute and traffic issues are ranked among the worst locations in the U.S.) and one of the more dense greater metro areas in the U.S., and temperatures that regularly reach a humid 80+ degrees Fahrenheit. Metro Atlanta marks Waymo's 25th test city in total, including its recent return to San Francisco. Its testing so far has consisted of mapping the city with manually driven Waymo vehicles ahead of launching its testing program in full. A Waymo spokesperson provided the following statement to TechCrunch regarding the expansion: Now that we have the world's first fleet of fully self-driving cars on public roads, we're focused on taking our technology to a wide variety of cities and environments. We're looking forward to our testing in Metro Atlanta, and the opportunity to bring this lifesaving technology to more people in more places. Georgia Governor Nathan Deal also provided the statement below: With our talented workforce and legacy of innovation, Georgia is at the forefront of the most dynamic, cutting edge industries like autonomous vehicles. We are thrilled to welcome Waymo to our state because fully self-driving vehicle technology holds tremendous potential to improve road safety, and we are proud Georgia is paving the way for the future of transportation.

Autoblog Minute: Marchionne seems prepared to lead FCA in takeover of GM

Fri, Sep 4 2015

FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne wants industry consolidation but without any deal takers it seems as though he's ready to consider a hostile takeover. Autoblog's Chris McGraw reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute with commentary from Autoblog editor-in-chief Mike Austin. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] It's no secret that FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne wants industry consolidation but without any deal takers it seems as though he's ready to consider a hostile takeover. I'm Chris McGraw and this is your Autoblog Minute. Marchionne is tired of waiting for the industry to get on board with his consolidation plan. In an interview with Automotive News Marchionne was quoted as saying, "it would be unconscionable not to force a partner." And when pushed further about the nature of any potential takeover plan the FCA chief had this to say: "Not hostile. There are varying degrees of hugs. I can hug you nicely, I can hug you tightly, I can hug you like a bear, I can really hug you. Everything starts with physical contact. Then it can degrade, but it starts with physical contact." Metaphor aside, Marchionne suggests his numbers for a GM-FCA merger are irrefutable, pointing to potential global earnings of a 30 billion dollars. Without a merger deal on the horizon we have to wonder if an FCA takeover of GM even possible. For more we go to Autoblog's Mike Austin: [Mike Austin Interview] Marchionne says GM won't take his phone calls, and while he admits a merger with GM would be a hard road to haul it's one he's still determined to travel. We'll continue to monitor the story as it develops. For Autoblog, I'm Chris McGraw. Autoblog Minute is a short-form video news series reporting on all things automotive. Each segment offers a quick and clear picture of what's happening in the automotive industry from the perspective of Autoblog's expert editorial staff, auto executives, and industry professionals.

Watch Jay Leno's Garage work on a Porsche 911 and others

Mon, Apr 18 2016

Jay Leno doesn't just own a bunch of cars – he restores them. (Or has people who restores them, at any rate.) For this latest video, he's showing us some of the projects he and his team are currently working on. The tour-de-garage starts with a 1953 Cunningham that had been in storage since '68, complete with a copper grille ready for plating and a 331 Hemi V8. Jay says that every one of the cars that Briggs Cunningham made is still on the road – but that's just one of the dozen or so projects Jay and company are working on. There's a suitably brown '71 Porsche 911 T in near-original condition having sat untouched parked underground in Beverly Hills for decades, and a '58 Chrysler Imperial convertible once driven by Clark Gable and Frank Sinatra, and now getting a brake upgrade. There's a Volvo 122 wagon that's been stripped down, media-blasted, and powder-coated, a thousand-horsepower Rolls-Royce, a 1960 Nash Metropolitan, a supercharged Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman, and a 1914 Detroit Electric. And those are just the four-wheeled automobiles. Over in the two-wheeler section there's a pair of Brough Superiors, a BSA, an Indian, and a custom racing sidecar that Jay's mechanic Bernard is working on. In short, Jay Leno's Garage isn't just one where vehicles are kept – it's one where vehicles are brought back to life.
