A 1973 Chrysler Imperial Lebaron! 

I cannot over state how CLEAN this classic is! 

This car was special ordered in 1973 for Sen. Sam Ervin of North Carolina. If you are from the south especially that name is well known. A long story short- Watergate hearings had begun and Sen. Ervin was to preside over those hearings. He called the dealership where he had ordered the car and told them he was unable to pick the car up. Later on as he was unable to make it back to NC he sent a friend to pick the car up for him and the friend titled the car in his (being the friends name). The Imperial never made it to Sen. Ervin because he passed before he was able to take possession of it. The colors were his choice, black and white. He had good taste! 

I know you may be saying hummmm really? Yes, really! I do not have any proof for this but word of mouth and in my town everyone knows the story is true! 

Now to the car.

It is the last year of the BIG body style Imperial and also the last year for the 440 engine in it.
The car has NO rust or paint blemish anywhere on it. All of the leather is plush, soft and in tact. No rips, tars,or stitching loose. The car has 65,763 miles on it. This is the original miles.

The car has every option available in 1973 for this car. 
-Electric seats and windows (all work).  
-Factory A/C (works great)
-Hide away lights (work well)
-Factory radio (works)
-All gauges work
Tires are in great shape as is the whole car!  

Please call me at 828-467-3369 if you have any questions.

*The car is for sale locally as well and I reserve the right to end the auction if it sells.
*If you bid, PLEASE be prepared to buy.

Chrysler recalling nearly half a million vehicles with active head restraints

Thu, 04 Jul 2013

Chrysler has announced that it will recall roughly 490,000 vehicles around the globe due to a potential active head-restraint problem. The problem is being blamed on "potentially faulty microcontrollers" that may keep the vehicles' anti-whiplash active safety feature from working properly. Chrysler says it has no knowledge of any accidents or injuries related to the issue. Models covered under the recall include the 2011-2013 Chrysler Sebring, 200 (shown) and Dodge Avenger models, along with 2011-2013 Jeep Liberty and 2011-2012 Dodge Nitro SUVs.
Interestingly, the Pentastar notes that the faulty part came from an (unnamed) supplier who furnished the parts in the wake of Japan's 2011 earthquake and tsunami, natural disasters which decimated the world's supply of microcontrollers.
Chrysler says of those nearly half a million vehicles affected, around 442,000 of them reside in the US, with an additional 25,000 in Canada and 10,000 units in Mexico. A further 12,000 models were shipped beyond the NAFTA region. The Auburn Hills automaker will begin sending out recall notices shortly, and technicians will upgrade the system software or replace the microcontroller as necessary at no cost to owners.

2014 Chrysler 200 to set design tone for brand

Sun, 20 Jan 2013

Speaking with Wards Auto at this year's Detroit Auto Show, Chrysler design chief Ralph Gilles said that the next-generation Chrysler 200 will launch a whole new styling direction for the brand when it arrives for the 2014 model year. Gilles did not reveal any specific design cues or elements that will be found on the next 200, only saying that the new car "shares no surface language with any previous Chrysler we've ever seen."
Indeed, the current 200 isn't exactly setting the world on fire with any sort of clever, emotive design, but Gilles knows that. "The current Chryslers on the road today certainly don't reflect where we're headed," he told Wards Auto. Instead, Gilles said that "we are deviating from where we are today, completely. It's a very different feeling (and) look."
The launch of the new Chrysler 200 will officially mean the death of its Dodge Avenger counterpart, though Gilles says that the company is working on an all-new product to replace that vehicle down the road. Still, Chrysler will need a successful player in the popular midsize segment, and Gilles fully expects the new 200 to be up to the task. "I think it's going to be a beautiful and relevant vehicle."

Jeep Wrangler diesel likely after 2015 model refresh

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

We automotive journalists aren't always the right people to ask about whether a US-spec vehicle should or should not be offered with a diesel powertrain (hint: the answer is usually "YES"). But when it comes to the iconic, off-road-ready Jeep Wrangler, we aren't the only ones who have been clamoring for an oil-burning engine behind that famous seven-slat grille. To that end, it appears there's good news on the horizon, as Jeep CEO Mike Manley recently told Ward's Auto that the "Wrangler is on the radar to get (a) diesel."
"I'm confident that the Grand Cherokee will show just how large a demand there is for diesel, and I think what that will do is reinforce the need for us to target Wrangler as a vehicle that can take a diesel," Manley told Ward's. The most rugged of Jeeps is scheduled to get an overhaul around 2015-16, and the diesel powertrain will likely be introduced around that time.
This year alone, Chrysler will be adding a diesel engine to the Grand Cherokee SUV, as well as the Ram 1500 pickup and Promaster utility van.
