1967 Chrysler New Yorker Garage Kept Two Owner Rock Solid Coupe on 2040-cars
Wallkill, New York, United States
Here we have a 1967 new yorker that I purchased from a past neighbor of mine.I remember this car when I was a kid growing up. Bob is 81 now and getting his affairs in order, none of his kids want the old clunker and bob knowing that I have a love affair with vintage cars contacted me to see if I was interested in her.I went to his house and sure enough there it sits.Bob tells me that he is the second owner and the miles that are on the odometer are true miles and not turned over but there is no proof . Bob has always kept it registered and insured but has not used it in a few years.truth be told, I purchased this car for the sole purpose of making a profit. My love affair is with 50's cars [I have two] and prewar packards.This garage kept chrysler has no rot and I don't believe it ever did but it does have some small bubbling under the vinyl top on the drivers side that I will show in some pictures.There is none around the rear window.The car has been repainted for reasons unknown and the drivers door has a small area of previous body work-vinyl top is still in great condition-britework is still pleasing to the eye.interior is very nice with wear on the drivers seat as well as the rear seat that I will show in some pictures.The headliner is excellent with no tears or sag and the dash has some cracks and splits. The steering wheel is fine with no splits. factory radio unfortunately has been replaced . Original wheels and hubcaps M.I.A . Now if I were to keep this I would go thru this front to back-pull the wheels and redo brakes/wheel cylinders/repack wheel bearings/change brake lines/hoses/ all belts/coolant hoses/ fuel lines/ tune up/ inspect rear axle bearings/ujoints/ transmission flush and filter change/flush radiator with a new thermostat/flush power steering system/ grease every fitting/ inspect water pump/ etc etc. If your looking to get into a vintage car cheaply this might be you.Now for all you folks that ask me if I think the car will make it to your destination if you decide to fly in and drive it home my answer is your nut's-I did that once when I purchased an old lincoln from the carlise pa fall swap meet. since i was only 235 miles away I chanced it since the car was in excellent shape with low miles. well about 100 miles into the trip the car started to backfire under load-I did make it home but swore I would never do that again.plan on trailering this please!! I took the car for a short ride and the car goes down the road nicely-it is cold blooded and needs to warm up,but once it is ready to go it runs nice/shifts/stops nicely and goes down the road straight. This car needs to be used and it still needs some odds and ends such as the rear windows don't go down but the motors are working so the rear panels need to be pulled to see whats going on. The drivers window goes down but needs a little help going back up.The bottom line is this car needs some work but you can use it and work on it as needed.I will be posting pictures later on this evening. if you would rather talk then email[I prefer talking] my # is 845-863-6327 Steve. Now I have plenty of room to store this car until you can find a reasonable/knowledgable shipper-no need to panic and find a poor shipper because you think the car needs to be moved quickly-DO YOUR HOMEWORK TO FIND THE RIGHT MOVER!!- I have seen some hacks and butchers from the USHIP WEBSITE so take your time!! no paypal please and ALL CHECKS NEED AMPLE TIME TO CLEAR- clear registration still in bobs name ready to be handed over to the new buyer- a buffing and cleaning will do wonders-- I have more pics available-just ask

What will Detroit do with the abandoned AMC headquarters?
Mon, Dec 28 2015As with so many other industrial and residential properties in Detroit, the former headquarters for the American Motors Corporation is having a hard time finding a reputable buyer. In October the Wayne County Treasurer held a tax foreclosure auction of 25,000 properties that included the AMC building, the starting bid being $500. Nicholas Casab won the building for $500, but the county voided the sale when Casab didn't pay the $232,000 in back property taxes. Detroit authorities haven't commented on the failed sale, but the city has until January 4 to decide if it wants to keep the building. If it doesn't want to hold onto it, the 1.5-million-square-foot property on 57 acres might be ceded to the Wayne County Land Bank Corporation. No matter who holds the deed come January 5, all anyone really wants is for someone to take possession of the building who will actually turn it into something useful and viable. The property opened in 1927 as a factory for the Kelvinator Corporation. Over the following decades, Kelvinator merged with the Nash Motor Company, and that merged entity merged with Hudson Motor Car Co, becoming American Motors. Chrysler took over the building in 1987 when it bought AMC, then shuttered it in 2009. The complex has produced refrigerators, Sikorsky helicopters, Jeeps, AMCs, and was used as an engineering center for Jeeps and other Chrysler products. Having been through several hands in the past six years, it is cited as part of the cycle of abandonment plaguing Detroit.

Stellantis wants to outfit cars with AI software to drive revenue
Tue, Dec 7 2021MILAN — Carmaker Stellantis announced a strategy Tuesday to embed AI-enabled software in 34 million vehicles across its 14 brands, hoping the tech upgrade will help it bring in 20 billion euros ($22.6 billion) in annual revenue by 2030. CEO Carlos Tavares heralded the move as part of a strategy that would transform the car company into a “sustainable mobility tech company,” with business growth coming from features and services tied to the internet. That includes using voice commands to activate navigation, make payments and order products online. The company is expanding existing partnerships with BMW on partially automated driving, iPhone manufacturer Foxconn on customized cockpits and Waymo to push their autonomous driving work into light commercial vehicle delivery fleets. StellantisÂ’ embrace of artificial intelligence and expansion of software-enabled vehicles is part of a broad transformation in the auto industry, with a race toward more fully electric and hybrid propulsion systems, more autonomous driving features and increased connectivity in automobiles. Ford and General Motors also are banking on dramatically increased revenue from similar online subscription services. But the automakers face immense competition for monthly consumer spending from movie and music streaming services, news outlets, Amazon Prime and others. Stellantis, which was formed from the combination of PSA Peugeot and FCA Fiat Chrysler, said the software would seamlessly integrate into customers' lives, with the capability of live updates providing upgraded services over time. New products will include the possibility to subscribe to automated driving features, purchase usage-based car insurance or even increase the power of the vehicle with a tune-up to add horsepower. As a baseline, Stellantis generates 400 million euros in revenue on software-generated services installed in 12 million vehicles. To meet the targets, Stellantis will expand its software engineering team of 1,000 to 4,500 in North America, Asia and Europe. More than 1,000 of the expanded team will be retrained in house. Stellantis also announced a new partnership with Foxconn to develop semiconductors to cover 80% of the companyÂ’s needs and simplify the supply chain. The first microchips from the partnership are targeted to be installed in vehicles in 2024.
Fiat board makes Chrysler merger official, approves $5.4B bond sale
Mon, 16 Jun 2014Fiat's board of directors has officially approved the merger plan that will see the conglomerate's automotive operations merged with Chrysler into the new Fiat Chrysler Automobiles.
The plan essentially provides a road map for the structure of the new company. It includes provisions for Fiat shareholders - one Fiat share will translate to one share of FCA common stock. The new company will also include a loyalty voting structure, which will provide for shareholders of Fiat stock or those that have held FCA stock for at least three years. According to the plan, these shareholders would see their voting power double, with two votes for every share of FCA's common stock. The overall merger plan still needs to be approved by the company's shareholders.
In other Fiat-related news, the company's board has announced a bond issuance of four billion euro ($5.4 billion). The new bonds should provide the company with a degree of flexibility in refinancing debts associated with the merger plan.
