1961 Chrysler Newport 2door hardtop This is a long time COLORADO car, so its not all rusted out like a back-east car. The trunk was rusted out but I have patched in a rock solid trunk floor from a donor car (not thin and floppy like the patch panels) The floors are good in the back seat and passenger areas. The drivers area floor is rusted through, but I have a new patch panel that comes with. There is some collision damage (just scrape, not deep) on the right side, with some old bondo on it, there is still some dentage there. There is a rust though area near the left headlight that looks like a thin line about 3 inches long. The trim is good, some clips are loose, pot metal pieces are good compared to whats out there. The front seat is ok for a guy, but you wouldn’t sit your date on it. The back seat is out, springs good, needs recover. The astrodome dash lights up in blue luminescent, but the sppedo does not work. Maybe the cable? All glass is good, with only a small crack in the corner of the right rear side glass, and some minor wiper wear in the front. All windows regulate well. Brakes are all new with a Master kit from Kanter, master cylinder , hoses, 6 wheel cyliners and new shoes. The car has a new fuel tank, sending unit and pump. The car has original 361, which came with a 2bbl. I have converted to a 4bbl with period correct Mopar parts. She runs and drives, and with the nice patina, makes a beautiful head-turning rat rod, but its also a super solid platform for a restoration or custom. Smokes a little on startup, but smooths out after a while. The tranny looses fluid when sitting. After the level is back up, she shifts well and does not slip. The Wheels and tires are borrowed from another car. They are NOT included in this sale. They are new 15 x 7 Wheel Vintiques, with new 205/70 in front and 225/70 in back. You can buy them as an add-on for an extra $1000, or I will fit the car with “roller” tires, suitable for transport, but not for street use. Last year for Chrysler BIG FINS. This is your chance! Happy Independence Day! roysvintagecars Roy 303-988-0391 ps. I will not reveal the reserve price before auction close. |

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.
GM, Chrysler bailouts saved 2.6 million jobs
Tue, 10 Dec 2013
The Center for Automotive Research (CAR) has been studying the effects of the General Motors and Chrysler bailouts in 2009. Now that the US Treasury has officially sold off the rest of its stake in GM (and Chrysler has already paid back its loan), CAR has released its study on the effects of the bailout with this concluding note: "CAR is confident that in the years ahead, this peacetime intervention in the private sector by the US government will be seen as one of the most successful in US economic history."
Big words, for sure, but there's plenty of evidence to back up the claim. Bailing out GM alone saved 1.2-million jobs. If both GM and Chrysler hadn't been bailed out, US employment would have been reduced by 2.631-million jobs in 2009 and another 1.519-million jobs in 2010, according to the study. If both automakers were allowed to fail, personal income in the US would have decreased by $173.5 billion in 2009 and $110.9 billion in 2010. Instead, the study found that $284.4 billion of personal income was saved by the bailouts.
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles recalls nearly 750k vehicles in two campaigns
Thu, 16 Oct 2014Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is recalling a total of 747,817 vehicles in the US in two separate campaigns recently added to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration database.
The first one covers about 434,581 units of the Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, Challenger, Durango, and Jeep Grand Cherokee from the 2011-2014 model years with electric hydraulic power steering, the 3.6-liter V6 engine and a 160 amp alternator, according to FCA. In the affected vehicles, it's possible for the alternator to fail without warning and possibly cause the car to stall. According to the documentation submitted to NHTSA, the automaker began investigating the problem in August 2014 and has found possible evidence of one crash caused by the failures but no known injuries.
Customers will begin receiving notification about the recall next month, and obviously the repairs will be done at no cost to them.
