Hemi V-8 331 c.i. , 2bbl carb. Fluid Torque Drive 4-speed semi-automatic transmission. All original condition with 44,720 original miles. This car is one of those “barn find” originals. It was sold new to a Mrs. Smith in Buffalo, NY. Her husband passed away sometime later and she continued to drive the car sparingly until 1971 when she surrendered the plates. Oil change stickers on the Driver’s door show 37,116 miles on 6/17/69 and another 40,165 on July 13, ?(I would assume 1970). I have a document from NY state showing the plates were voluntarily surrendered 2/22/71. It sat in storage for 37 years until it was sold at an estate auction in 2010. Since then, The brakes and wheel cylinders have been replaced, the gas tank cleaned with new lines installed. The Master cylinder was rebuilt, brake lines installed, carburetor cleaned. A full tuneup was done with new plugs and wires, dual-point distributor refurbished. There is a NY state inspection sticker from 2013. The car passed inspection as all lights, turn signals, speedometer, gauges, horn, wipers are functioning properly. The original 6-volt system is intact. All courtesy lights, and cigar lighters are working. I have not been able to get the gas gauge or the AM radio working. The radio appears to be complete and the speaker component has supposedly been re-built. I believe a tube may need replacing to get it working as it does power up and the dial illuminates. The car has new whitewall radial tires installed. All glass in the car is original. The windows glide up and down effortlessly. The wing windows open and close perfectly. The headliner is virtually as new. The original door rubber seals are supple and near new in appearance. The windlace around the doors and headliner is original but appears as new. There is a small tear in the front bench seat on the passenger side. It was told to me that when the car came out of storage it had the plastic covering on the seats. I have a replacement carpet but have not installed it. The 4-speed automatic transmission upshifts and downshifts perfectly. It upshifts as it is supposed to when you lift on the accelerator above 20 MPH and it will downshift when the accelerator is depressed just as a modern car does. I have a complete service manual that explains all the systems in the car. Chrysler was noted for its state of the art engineering and it is quite impressive. It has power steering and vacuum assisted brakes. The Hemi engine starts reliably and runs smoothly. The oil pressure gauge shows excellent readings. I have not noticed any smoking or oil consumption. The ammeter and generator work perfectly. The paint on the car is original and shows a lovely patina. There is evidence that some repair was done to the right rear quarter as the paint appears newer in that area. The trim shows some pitting but is in good condition for its age. I had to install an exterior transmission oil cooler as I could not find a replacement for the engine block mounted heat exchanger which proved to be defective. The original part is still in place but I have by-passed it. The coolant lines are still the original ones so it could be put back to original very easily if the part could be located. The Fluid Torque Drive (torque converter) has a leak that can be remedied with replacing the seals. I have the seal kit. There are some small rust spots on the body. I have replacement rocker panels that have yet to be installed. Also, the heater core was by-passed when I got the car. I have not attended to this as I live in Florida and don’t need a heater. |

Weekly Recap: Ferrari pens a provocative F1 car of the future
Sat, Feb 21 2015Scuderia Ferrari unveiled its vision of the future for Formula One this week, revealing sketches of a sleek, muscular racecar. Called the Concept F1, Ferrari is showcasing the design to start a conversation about the next generation of Formula One cars and spur interest in the sport, which has been maligned for its unattractive racecars in recent years. The Concept F1 was penned by the company's in-house studio, Centro Stile Ferrari, with input from its aerodynamics department. Though the sketches look futuristic, the company says the design could be executed without changing F1 regulations. From its beginning, Ferrari's racecars have had both form and function, winning on the track and turning heads with everything from the 250 Testa Rossa, 330 P3, Michael Schumacher's single-seaters from the early 2000s and many others. That lineage led the Scuderia's leaders to survey the paddock, wring their hands and come up with the Concept F1. As Ferrari said on its website: "Our challenge was to create something that was – to put it short – better looking." It's a philosophy that was implemented for this season's car, the SF15-T. While not groundbreaking in appearance, Ferrari cleaned up the design, particularly up front, and the racecar now has a more attractive nose that delivers better aerodynamics. It's more of the same in back, where a tighter design creates more downforce. "This year's car is certainly an awful lot better looking than last year's car," Ferrari technical director James Allison said in a video on the Scuderia's website. The updates come as Ferrari, and all F1 teams, get a better handle on the extensive 2014 rule changes that brought back turbocharged engines and altered the aerodynamic regulations for the series. Less dramatic changes also are going into effect this year. Ferrari, which is coming off a disappointing fourth-place finish in the World Championship, is obviously looking to the future. Appearances have always mattered for the red cars. We'll see if they bring the Scuderia success this season and beyond. Other News and Notes Next-generation Chrysler Town & Country spied Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is hard at work on the next-gen Town & Country minivan, and our spy shooters have captured heavily covered prototypes during testing on the road. We can't tell anything about the exterior design, though we see glimpses of an instrument panel (which looks vaguely Dodge Charger-esque) and infotainment screen inside.
Stellantis and LG launch joint venture for North American battery plant
Mon, Oct 18 2021Stellantis has struck a preliminary deal with battery maker LG Energy Solution (LGES) to produce battery cells and modules for North America, as the world's No. 4 automaker rolls out its 30 billion euro ($35 billion) electrification plan. Global automakers are investing billions of euros to accelerate a transition to low-emission mobility and prepare for a progressive phase-out of internal combustion engines. Stellantis and LGES's joint venture will produce battery cells and modules at a new facility with an annual capacity of 40 gigawatt hours (GWh), the two firms said on Monday. No financial details of the deal were provided. The plant is scheduled to start production by the first quarter of 2024, with groundbreaking expected in the second quarter of 2022, the companies said in their statement. Its location is under review and will be announced later. Stellantis, formed in January from the merger of Italian-American automaker Fiat Chrysler and France's PSA, has said it wants to secure more than 130 GWh of global battery capacity by 2025 and more than 260 GWh by 2030. The batteries produced under the deal will supply Stellantis' U.S., Canadian and Mexican assembly plants for installation in hybrid and fully electric vehicles, supporting its goal of e-vehicles making up more than 40% of its U.S. sales by 2030. The company, whose brands include Peugeot, Fiat, Opel and U.S. best-sellers Jeep and Ram, earlier this year announced it would invest more than 30 billion euros through 2025 on electrifying its vehicle lineup. Stellantis has said it would build three battery plants in Europe and two in North America, including at least one in the United States. Intesa Sanpaolo analyst Monica Bosio said the deal was positive, and a further step ahead in Stellantis' electrification process. It comes weeks after Stellantis and its partner TotalEnergies agreed to open up their battery cell joint venture ACC to Daimler, to expand their European sourcing of battery cells. Stellantis is also targeting more than 70% of sales in Europe to be of low-emission vehicles by 2030, and aims to make the total cost of owning an EV equal to that of a gasoline-powered model by 2026.

MotorWeek reviews '83 American Motors lineup
Wed, Mar 18 2015The 30th anniversary of American Motors' 1987 sale to Chrysler by Renault is just a few years away. AMC is long dead, but for its latest peek in the archives, MotorWeek winds back the clock to somewhat happier times. Take a look at the entire AMC lineup from 1983, including its models from Jeep and Renault. The Jeeps, and to a lesser extent, the AMC Eagle, enjoy a cult following today, but it's amazing how many of these other vehicles are now practically forgotten. Even the big debut in '83 of the Renault Alliance is largely ignored. Although with a ludicrous amount of body roll and a 55-horsepower 1.4-liter engine, it's probably rightly buried.
