1977 Chrysler Newport with 56,100 Original Miles.
This was a ONE-OWNER, purchased New in Athens, Alabama in 1977 for $7,500!
ALMOST Showroom NEW! As a matter of fact, it still had the plastic on the seats, up until a month ago!
NEW TOYO TIRES with less than 3,000 miles, and I just had my Mechanic replace the Valve Cover Gaskets.
Has the Original 400cc Engine with Lean Burn System.
Runs and Drives GREAT, with no issues AT ALL... Shifts Excellent, and rides like a dream.
It does have a small dent above the rear driver-side wheel well, as shown. I haven't gotten it down to the paintless dent-removal place yet, to see if they can easily pop it out, but I am sure it could be done.
Has Original Factory A/C (R-12 Freon,) but my mechanic said it has a leak when he tried to pull a vacuum on it, so I just had him leave it alone, and didn't go any further.
I have the Original window sticker from Gordon Chrysler in Athens, Alabama.
This car has lived it's entire life in NW Alabama, and has ZERO rust, and was always garage-kept, so the paint looks almost like New!
I also have the Original Owner's Manual where the woman made notations inside the back for all the Maintenance that she did over the years. (Example: Oil/Filter in 02/85 with 37,788 miles, etc, etc....)
Alabama does not Title anything over 35 years old, but the Registration is in MY NAME, and I will gladly go with you to the D.M.V.... I DO have the Original Title, though, where it was sold to me (signed by myself and the Seller.) When I presented it to the DMV, they told me that I could keep it, as they didn't issue Titles for anything over 35 years old, so I will include this Title to the winning bidder, as well.
Located in Huntsville, Alabama. You are responsible for PICKUP ONLY. If you want to pre-arrange a shipping service to come get it, that is fine, as well. I will gladly meet them and let them load it onto their truck/trailer, assuming that payment has already been made in ADVANCE.
Payment is by: CASH (or Cashier's Check) ONLY upon Pickup.
Email me your phone number and I will gladly give you a call if you have any questions that I can answer!

Is it time for American carmakers to give up on dual-clutch transmissions? [w/poll]
Mon, 22 Jul 2013Last week, in the midst of Detroit's first days seeking relief in Chapter 9 of the bankruptcy code, Automotive News contributor Larry P. Vellequette penned an editorial suggesting that American car companies raise the white flag on dual clutch transmissions and give up on trying to persuade Americans to buy cars fitted with them. Why? Because, Vellequette says, like CVT transmissions, they "just don't sound right or feel right to American drivers." (Note: In the article, it's not clear if Vellequette is arguing against wet-clutch and dry-clutch DCTs or just dry-clutch DCTs, which is what Ford and Chrysler use.) The article goes on to state that Ford and Chrysler have experimented with DCTs and that both consumers and the automotive press haven't exactly given them glowing reviews, despite their quicker shifts and increased fuel efficiency potential compared to torque-converter automatic transmissions.
Autoblog staffers who weighed in on the relevance of DCTs in American cars generally disagreed with the blanket nature of Vellequette's statement that they don't sound or feel right, but admit that their lack of refinement compared to traditional automatics can be an issue for consumers. That's particularly true in workaday cars like the Ford Focus and Dodge Dart, both of which have come in for criticism in reviews and owner surveys. From where we sit, the higher-performance orientation of such transmissions doesn't always meld as well with the marching orders of everyday commuters (particularly if drivers haven't been educated as to the transmission's benefits and tradeoffs), and in models not fitted with paddle shifters, it's particularly hard for drivers to use a DCT to its best advantage.
Finally, we also note that DCT tuning is very much an evolving science. For instance, Autoblog editors who objected to dual-clutch tuning in the Dart have more recently found the technology agreeable in the Fiat 500L. Practice makes perfect - or at least more acceptable.
Chrysler's Woodward Dream Cruise festivities include Ram concept truck debut
Tue, 13 Aug 2013The streets will be crowded next weekend along Woodward Avenue in Royal Oak, Michigan for the 19th Annual Woodward Dream Cruise. As part of the run-up to the festivities, Chrysler has announced that all of its brands - Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram, Fiat, SRT and Mopar - will bring along their latest vehicles. Also included will be a collection of classic American cars and various activities for attendees at the official Chrysler location on the corner of Woodward and 13 Mile Road.
Special to this year, Ram brand director Bob Hegbloom and head of design John Dehner will unveil a Ram concept truck on Saturday. Chrysler will also bring Ryan Friedlinghaus of West Coast Customs fame along to show off a few custom Chrysler-made vehicles of his own. Fans of the brand on Facebook will get the chance to virtually customize a vehicle from the automaker's portfolio, with the winner getting their dream car built for them by Chrysler. Pretty cool stuff, no?
As in past years, Ford and General Motors will have an official presence at the event as well, and you can expect to see plenty of cars of all makes and models from all parts of the globe. The madness starts this Friday, August 16, from 4:30 PM to 10 PM, with the main event taking place on Saturday, from 9 AM to 9 PM. For more details on the show, including events and their times, check out the press release below.
Stellantis reports $15B profit in first year of merger
Wed, Feb 23 2022FRANKFURT, Germany — Automaker Stellantis said Wednesday that it made 13.4 billion euros ($15.2 billion) in its first year after it was formed from the merger of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and PSA Group. The earnings nearly tripled profits compared with its pre-merger existence as two separate companies, as the maker of Jeep, Opel and Peugeot vehicles exploited cost efficiencies from combining the businesses. The result compared to a combined 4.79 billion euros for the separate companies in 2020 before the merger, which took effect on Jan. 17, 2021. Revenue for the combined business rose 14%, to 152 billion euros. CEO Carlos Tavares said the results “prove that Stellantis is well positioned to deliver strong performance" and had overcome “intense headwinds” during the year. Automakers have struggled with shortages of key parts such as semiconductor electronic components and rising costs for raw materials as the global rebound from the worst of the coronavirus pandemic brings more demand. The company said the benefits of the merger were worth some 3.2 billion euros during the year. Mergers can lead to streamlined costs as companies combine functions and spread fixed costs over a larger revenue base. The company accelerated its rollout of battery-powered vehicles, with sales of low-emission vehicles reaching 388,000 — an increase of 160%. Stricter environmental regulations in Europe and China are pushing automakers to roll out more electric vehicles with longer range. Stellantis started production of a hydrogen fuel cell commercial van under its Opel brand in December. Stellantis' other brands include Chrysler, Citroen, DS, Fiat, Maserati, Ram and Vauxhall.
