 This is a beautiful example of a survivor 1962 Chrysler New Yorker. all original 413 V8, push-button shifted transmission, with power steering, power brakes, power seat, power windows, factory option Air conditioning, and more! Car has never been restored or rebuilt. Sellers have owned this car since approximately 1970. Car was always well maintained and garaged. unfortunately, due to declining health, the car had not been used or maintained for the last 6-7 yrs. I have been given the task of getting the car running and driving and selling it for them. They tell me that when the car was still being used EVERYTHING on the car worked, even the air conditioning! Of course, after setting for several years, there were some problems that came up. I will be as open and honest as I can be when describing the car. If there is anything that I miss or if you have any questions feel free to ask. Also, I will send more pics upon request.
 I have gone over this car pretty well, it is now running nearly perfectly, no smoke or noises from the engine. The transmission works well, shifts smoothly into all gears. Car rides smooth as glass with no rattles or squeaks. The interior is in amazing condition for a car that is over 50 years old. The rear seat still has the plastic cover on it from the factory, the front seat plastic cover was just removed about 10 years ago. There are no tears and almost no wear signs on anything inside this car. Even the original radio works like new! The body is in great shape, again, considering it is 50+ years old.  It looks like the top side of the car along with the sides of the fenders have been repainted at some point. There are a few small scratches and dings. There is almost no rust on this car. The ONLY rust that the car has, is a small spot on the bottom side of the rocker panels in front of both rear wheels, and a small spot on the bottom of one fender just behind the front wheel (when I say small, I mean aprox. 3in circle). I have been working on old cars and doing rust repair for 20 years, and can honestly say, if there is an easy rust repair, this is it!!! All rust is lower than the chrome trim (not under it), so paint work could be kept below the trim. The brakes will need some attention before the car is 100%. They do work fine, after they get warmed up. Before they are warm they grab badly. I cleaned and inspected the brakes and they look to have had an overhaul recently, so I just cleaned and reassembled them, but they still grab. A new set of shoes should solve the problem. I also replaced all of the rubber brake lines. The tires are coker classics, new in 2004, they looks new, they show absolutely no signs of age or wear at all, only had to put in 5-10psi after they had sat for 6-7 years!

Just to be clear. I have only done what was needed to get the car back to running and mobile. I have driven the car down the road with no problems, but I am not saying that it is perfect and ready for a road trip.

list of what I have done
new battery, starter rebuilt, fuel system cleaned, carburetor rebuilt, fuel filter, oil and filter change, brakes cleaned and rubber hoses replaced, cleaned ignition points

complete list of known problems
brakes grab till warm, dome light only works with rear doors, air conditioning not working, right rear power window not working (closed and wont open), temp and fuel gauges not working.

The Chrysler brand could be axed under Stellantis management

Sun, Jan 3 2021

MILAN — While running NissanÂ’s North American operations from 2009 to 2011, Carlos Tavares had a reputation for closely watching costs with little tolerance for vehicles or ventures that didnÂ’t make money. Experts say that means Tavares, currently the head of PSA Group, is likely to follow that blueprint when he becomes leader of a merged PSA and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. The low-performing Chrysler brand might get the axe as could slow-selling cars, SUVs or trucks that lack potential. Already the companies are talking about consolidating vehicle platforms — the underpinnings and powertrains — to save billions in engineering and manufacturing costs. That could mean job losses in Italy, Germany and Michigan as PSA Peugeot technology is integrated into North American and Italian vehicles. “You canÂ’t be cost efficient if you keep the entire scale of both companies,” said Karl Brauer, executive analyst for the iSeeCars.com auto website. “WeÂ’ve seen this show before, and weÂ’re going to see it again where they economize these platforms across continents, across multiple markets.” Shareholders of both companies are to meet Monday to vote on the merger to form the worldÂ’s fourth-largest automaker, to be called Stellantis. The deal received EU regulatory approval just before Christmas. Tavares, who for years has wanted to sell PSA vehicles in the U.S., wonÂ’t take full control of the merged companies until the end of January at the earliest. He likely will target Europe for consolidation first, because thatÂ’s where Fiat vehicles overlap extensively with PSAÂ’s, said IHS Markit Principal Auto Analyst Stephanie Brinley. Europe has been a money-loser for FCA, and factories in Italy are operating way below capacity — a concern for unions, given FiatÂ’s role as the largest private sector employer in the country. “We are at a crossroads,Â’Â’ said Michele De Palma of the FIOM CGIL metalworkersÂ’ union. “Either there is a relaunch, or there is a slow agonizing closure of industry, in particular the auto industry, in Italy.” ItalyÂ’s hopes lie with the luxury Maserati and sporty Alfa Romeo brands, but De Palma said investments are needed to bring hybrid and electric technology up to speed. FiatÂ’s Italian capacity stands at 1.5 million vehicles, but only a few hundred thousand are being produced each year. Most factories were on rolling short-term layoffs due to lack of demand, even before the pandemic.

Marchionne backs off merger plans, could retire after 2018

Tue, Jan 5 2016

FCA boss Sergio Marchionne is stepping back from plans to attempt a major auto industry merger like the oft-speculated deal with General Motors last year. According to Bloomberg, Marchionne now wants to grow his automaker through 2018, and then the 63-year-old could retire around the end of that year. Marchionne claims he received merger proposals last year, but he couldn't find an attractive enough partnership. "We went back to concentrate on the 2018 plan which would boost Fiat Chrysler's value and its position in a deal," he said to Bloomberg. He still believes that a big merger is possible, but "it will be someone else's duty," he said after previously hinting about possibly staying at FCA until 2020. Marchionne was clear that any chance for the GM merger was likely over. "I met Mary Barra less than a month ago in Washington," he told Bloomberg. "I don't think I will have another coffee with her. It won't happen again in the future." Now, the boss intends to spend the rest of his time at FCA building the automaker through its five-year plan, and his goal is to grow global deliveries to seven million units a year by 2018. To make that happen, the automaker will invest around $52 billion over that time to improve its brands' product slate. Marchionne began backtracking from the possible GM merger late in 2015 after it became clear that The General's board wasn't interested. Earlier in the year, he seemed more aggressive about the prospect by suggesting a hostile takeover with a bizarre metaphor about giving the company a hug.

Chrysler shows creative side with employee art exhibit

Wed, 27 Nov 2013

The United Auto Workers and Chrysler recently sponsored 92 works of art created by 50 of the automaker's unionized and salaried employees for the 2013-14 Artists at Work Exhibition, the ninth such show, which recognizes the creative process required to make art and manufacture vehicles. Chrysler says the event is "the country's only juried art show sponsored by a major corporation and a labor union." Unfortunately, the exhibit is not open to the public, but we have images to share of the winning pieces as well as other interesting exhibits in the gallery above.
"Art and manufacturing have more in common than you might think," says Keith Mickens, Chrysler-UAW National Training Center co-director from the UAW. "The creative process involved in producing a memorable image on a canvas can be used to help build quality vehicles on an assembly line."
A diverse range of art forms are showcased, from metal sculptures to ceramics to photography to paintings and more. Four Detroit-area professional artists narrowed down over 600 submissions to the 92 works of art that were shown at the exhibit, then awarded "Best of Show" prizes to three employees for their work (the first three images in our gallery) and selected 11 employees for honorable mentions. The overall winner is the sculpture above by Joseph Aiuto, titled "Childhood Anxiety."
