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 self-driving van involved in Arizona crash

Fri, May 4 2018

A self-driving Chrysler Pacifica minivan operated by Waymo, the autonomy subsidiary of Alphabet/Google, was involved in a two-car accident Friday afternoon in Chandler, Ariz. First reports indicate the autonomous vehicle was not at fault in the crash — not the "violator vehicle," according to ABC 15 News. This may be Waymo's first accident in its Arizona test program. The Waymo van's side was crumpled. Though Waymo announced in November it would do testing in Chandler without a human backup driver, one was behind the wheel of the van involved in the crash. Chandler police said the van was operating in autonomous mode. Minor injuries were reported. The accident was at Chandler Avenue and Los Feliz Drive. A Honda was eastbound on Chandler when it had to swerve to avoid a northbound vehicle in the intersection, police said. When it swerved, it entered the westbound lanes and struck the oncoming Waymo van. Waymo did not immediately comment on the accident. In March, a self-driving Uber vehicle struck and killed a pedestrian in Tempe, the first known fatality involving a self-driving car. Since that crash, Uber has halted its self-driving tests nationwide. Waymo CEO John Krafcik said following the Uber crash that his company's technology would have detected and avoided the pedestrian.

Samsung might buy Magneti Marelli, FCA's parts supplier

Wed, Aug 3 2016

Automotive manufacturing is quickly changing as companies like Google and Apple move into the sector with new products and services. It should be no surprise that other tech companies are making moves to grab a piece of the pie. According to Bloomberg, Korean tech conglomerate Samsung is in talks to purchase major automotive parts supplier Magneti Marelli from Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. Bloomberg reports that the deal could be worth more than $3 billion. It seems that Samsung is interested in Magneti Marelli's lighting, in-car entertainment, and telematics businesses, but a full purchase of the company isn't off the table. The move would be Samsung's largest-ever purchase outside of South Korea. FCA has already started to branch out and partner with tech firms. The automaker is working with Google to build an autonomous version of the new Pacifica minivan. They hope to have the first batch on the road by the end of the year. Magneti Marelli currently supplies everything from lighting and instrument clusters for passenger vehicles to high-end electronic components for Formula One and MotoGP teams. The company, founded in Italy in 1919, employs around 38,000 workers. Although it's currently owned by FCA, in the past Magneti Marelli has worked with companies like Ford and Microsoft. The purchase could help further diversify Samsung and reduce its dependence on consumer electronics like phones and televisions. Samsung is the world's largest supplier of memory chips and TVs, but the company has taken a hit lately as sales of its smartphones have faltered. In order to keep up with rivals like Apple, the company will need to venture into new markets. Perhaps Samsung's phone expertise would translate to improved vehicle infotainment systems. FCA, on the other hand, is on an aggressive five-year plan aimed at doubling net income. CEO Sergio Marchionne is attempting to eliminate the company's debt, and selling off a major subsidiary could greatly help. A recent attempt at a merger with General Motors failed and further hurt the company's finances. FCA's stock price rose in response to the rumors of the Magneti Marelli sale. Both Samsung and FCA have declined to comment on the move. Related Video: News Source: Bloomberg Technology Rumormill Chrysler Fiat Technology FCA Samsung magnetti marelli
