 UP FOR AUCTION IS MY 1955 CHRYSLER NEW YORKER DELUXE THAT NEEDS TO BE RESTORED.

THERE WERE 946 BUILT IN 1955 AND ONLY 15-20 STILL EXIST. I HAVE SCOURED THE WEB AND KNOW WHERE MOST OF THEM RESIDE....ONE IN CANADA, ONE IN HOLLAND, ERNEST HEMMINGWAY'S IN CUBA, AND THE REST SEEM TO BE IN AMERICA.

THIS CAR IS THE DESIRABLE NUGGET GOLD WITH FULL LEATHER INTERIOR IN GOLD AND WHITE. THE SIDE SPEAR HAD PLATINUM WHITE FOR THE TWO-TONE. THE CAR HAS A VERY OLD BLACK TOP ON IT....NOT SURE IF IT WAS ORDERED WHITE OR BLACK.

THE CAR WAS TAKEN APART FOR RESTORATION IN 1987 AND THE BODY WAS JIGGED FOR REMOVAL (ANGLE IRON FRAME STILL WELDED INSIDE).
THE CAR'S BODY WAS PUT ON A ROTISSERIE, SANDBLASTED THE FLOORS AND WELDING BEGUN. THE CHASSIS WAS STEAM-CLEANED AND SENT OUT FOR EXHAUST FITTING. WHEN THE MONEY RAN OUT, IT WAS PUT BACK ON IT'S CHASSIS WHERE IS REMAINS TODAY.

THE CAR WAS SPRAYED WITH A CLEAR PRESERVATIVE BEFORE IT WENT ON THE CHASSIS, BUT SURFACE RUST APPEARS ON THE SANDBLASTED AREAS. THE CHASSIS WAS SOLID.

INCLUDED IN THE SALE ARE 4 NEW WHITEWALL TIRES SIZED FOR THE OPTIONAL WIRE WHEELS, NEW CUSTOM BUILT STAINLESS STEEL EXHAUST FROM BORLA EAST (APPROX. $1,800 VALUE), A NEW CHROME STRIP FOR THE FRONT GRILLE AREA, HEMI TUNE UP PARTS, AND NEW ACCESSORY AND BODY WIRING HARNESSES FROM NARRAGANSETT WIRING. THE MAIN HARNESS IS NOT INCLUDED, BUT THE ORIGINAL ONE IS THERE.

ALL OF THE PARTS REMOVED HAVE BEEN STORED IN BOXES  INSIDE SINCE 1987.  THE DOORS, POWER SEAT FRAME, STEERING WHEEL/BOX/COLUMN, GAS TANK AND RADIATOR WERE STORED INSIDE THE CAR UNDER COVER.

THIS CAR IS AN EXCELLENT CANDIDATE FOR A FULL RESTORATION. EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE THERE, BUT I DIDN'T CHECK ALL OF THE SMALL BAGS OF PARTS TO SEE IF ANYTHING IS MISSING. THE RARE CHROME MOLDING ON THE TOP HEADER BOW IS STILL THERE AND THE GLASS IS IN GOOD CONDITION.

THERE IS NO TITLE, SOLD ON BILL OF SALE ONLY. I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FOR OVER 14 YEARS.

ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK BEFORE BIDDING. SERIOUS BIDDERS ONLY. DO NOT BID UNLESS YOU INTEND TO BUY.

BUYER MUST ARRANGE SHIPPING FOR THE CAR AND THE BOXES OF PARTS.  A  $500 PAYPAL  DEPOSIT IS DUE WITHIN 48 HOURS OF AUCTIONS END.

THIS IS WHAT YOUR CAR COULD LOOK LIKE WHEN FINISHED!

Jay Leno parades around in '52 Chrysler Imperial

Tue, Jun 23 2015

Jay Leno is not known as a quiet man. He's a comic, after all. So how do you think it'll go when he's given an enormous, Chrysler Imperial parade car, complete with two meaty public-address speakers on the front bumper? Exactly. In an amusing start to the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage, we see the eponymous star of the web series addressing the citizens of Burbank, CA from the big, comfy seat of a 1952 Chrysler Imperial Dual-Cowl Phaeton. One of just three produced by Chrysler at a price of about $33,000 a pop – a whopping $296,000 in today's dollars – this particular example is owned and still used by the city of Los Angeles. Its most famous passengers include President Dwight D. Eisenhower and then-Vice President Richard Nixon. Underhood, there's a 331-cubic-inch Hemi V8 that's been mated to a two-speed PowerFlite automatic. As for the exterior, while it may look like a 1956 Imperial, it did originally roll out of the factory in 1952. According to the LA city officials that accompanied the car, Chrysler called the three sedans back in 1955 and refitted them to fit in with the latest Imperial models. At 21.5 feet long, even in today's world of big pickups and SUVs, this particular example occupies a big space on the road. Surprisingly, it's still driven regularly, taking part in parades and celebrations across the City of Angels. You can check it out both in Jay's garage and on the streets of Los Angeles in the video above.

Stellantis and Foxconn will announce a strategic partnership on Tuesday

Mon, May 17 2021

MILAN — Automaker Stellantis and iPhone assembler Foxconn said on Monday they would announce a strategic partnership on Tuesday. Last year, then-Fiat Chrysler, now part of Stellantis, said it planned to set up a joint venture with Hon Hai Precision Industry, Foxconn's parent company, to build electric cars and develop internet-connected vehicles in China. Fiat Chrysler merged with France's Peugeot maker PSA at the beginning of the year to create Stellantis, the world's fourth-largest carmaker, and relaunching in China is one of its main goals. The two companies will hold a conference call on Tuesday to present the partnership, with Stellantis Chief Executive Carlos Tavares and Foxconn Chairman Young Liu among others, the groups said in a joint statement. In January Taiwan's Foxconn and China's Zhejiang Geely Holding Group said they were joining hands to provide contract manufacturing for automakers. They have said they were in talks to provide contract manufacturing services to electric vehicle maker Faraday Future, while Foxconn will also help building electric sport-utility vehicles in 2022 for Chinese startup Byton. And last week, Fisker Automotive signed with Foxconn to build an electric car at a factory in the United States. Related video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Recharge Wrap-up: Fiat 500X EV spotted? Senators request biodiesel increase

Thu, Feb 12 2015

A group of 32 senators is asking the EPA to approve increased biodiesel volumes in the Renewable Fuel Standard. Delays in approving the RFS for 2014 forward is causing problems for the fuel produces affected by the law. "EPA's delays are endangering our industry," says Imperium Renewables CEO John Plaza. "Biofuel facilities around the nation are sitting idle, workers are being laid off, and some producers have been forced out of business entirely." Producers feel the EPA is underestimating domestic biodiesel production, and are concerned about importing fuel from Argentina. Read more in the press release below. Fiat Chrysler will help Israel develop a natural gas vehicle. The automaker, along with Iveco and Magneti Marelli, signed a memorandum of understanding with Israel's Prime Minister's Office as part of the Israel Fuel Choices Initiative. They are also considering extended research and development relationship with Israeli companies for alternative fuels and smart mobility. Israel seeks to become a hub for alternative fuel technology.

The photos, sent by a reader to Green Car Reports, show a camouflaged Fiat 500X that appears to lack a tailpipe, suggesting it could be an EV. It was photographed on its way to Chrysler's SRT Engineering Center, which builds specialized, low-volume vehicles. The gas-powered 500X debuted in North America at the Los Angeles Auto Show last fall, so camouflage seems a bit unusual at this point if it's just a standard powertrain. It's possible the car could be sold mainly in California to comply with the state's zero-emissions requirements for automakers.

The senators expressed concern about the agency's delays in implementing the RFS standards for 2014, 2015 and 2016, noting that the delays have created tremendous uncertainty for the U.S.
