I am selling my ultra rare 1961 Chrysler Newport 2 door coupe. The car received a body up restoration 12 years ago and was driven only a very few miles since, then was garaged with the door down.I recently pulled it out of long storage (3 years) and now it needs to go to someone who will enjoy it and use it as she deserves.
This model is almost impossible to find anymore, and the 300 versions are going well over the 40K mark now. These are the identical same car to the 300, just with minor side trim differences and grill. The previous owner I bought it from added the highly desirable 'cross ram' induction set up (dual carbs) to the stock 361 V8. Now the bonus with this car is it now has the 300 bucket seats instead of the factory bench seat. Now I have had some folks tell me it may be the 413 motor which the 300's had, but I do not know how to confirm this?
The original carbs are long gone & have been replaced with more reliable & efficient Edelbrock 600cfm carbs. But other than that, she retains all the original parts. It has the infamous push button automatic changer on the left side of the dash mated to the indestructible 727 Torque Flight auto. It is complemented with these 17" chrome wheels with 275x55x17 rears with 235x55x17 fronts. These were factory drum brake cars as was the 300. I do not have the original wheels or caps. This is how I bought the car.
As you can see, it has a gorgeous metallic silver paint (originally red?) and laser straight all over. The bumpers still look & shine like new and are just perfect, as is ALL the glass, which this car has a LOT of! The interior was redone in a classic white tuck & roll style with new black carpeting, which looks marvelous against the outer paint & chrome wheels.
The car runs & drives just fine, but after sitting so long, I noticed recently it has developed a few minor issues which I have not got the time or energy to do. Simple things like the front/rear turn signals aren't flashing anymore, the 'Astrodome' speedometer has stopped working and it's gauges, yet the under dash gauges are working, so probably a short? So nothing major that could not be fixed in a day, as these were all working once.
Bottom line here is that you will have one of the rarest & most beautifully designed cars out there. You will NEVER see one at a show or for sale, you will have EVERYBODY ask you what is it? and ultimately, be the proud owner of the last year of Virgil M. Exner's forward look finned Mopars! (57-61)
Now remembering...there were only 1200 '300' coupes made for 1961 and 9405 of these Newport coupes. How many are left today...?

Chrysler 200 subtitles performance in latest round of advertising
Mon, 27 Oct 2014Every once in a while, we come across a car video narrated in a foreign language and subtitled in English. They usually center on foreign-made automobiles, but this latest series of videos comes straight from Detroit.
Airing for the first time during's NFL broadcasts, these four commercials for the 2015 Chrysler 200 were produced by Wieden + Kennedy Portland - the same advertising firm that created the now-legendary Eminem spot for the last-generation 200.
Each clip in the "Ready to Take on the World" campaign highlights a different aspect of the American sedan and is narrated in Japanese, German or Swedish - each with English subtitles - associating the 200's Japanese level of quality, German performance and Swedish safety standards. But while the clips are ostensibly set in Japan, Germany and Sweden, Automotive News reports that they were actually filmed at home in the US.
Fiat Chrysler and Peugeot boards meet to finalize merger
Tue, Dec 17 2019MILAN/PARIS — The boards of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and Peugeot will meet separately on Tuesday to discuss finalizing an initial agreement for a $50 billion merger to create the world's number four carmaker, sources said. A source close to FCA said the two companies could announce the signing of a binding memorandum early on Wednesday, followed by a conference call to explain further details later in the day. The two mid-sized carmakers announced plans six weeks ago for a tie-up to help them deal with big challenges in the industry, including a global demand downturn and the need to develop costly cleaner cars to meet looming anti-pollution rules. Ahead of the meetings, entities representing the Peugeot family, Etablissements Peugeot Freres (EPF) and FFP, unanimously approved a proposed memorandum of understanding for the planned merger, a source familiar with the situation said. FCA and PSA have said they would seek to finalize a deal by year-end to create a group with 8.7 million in annual vehicle sales. That would put it fourth globally behind Volkswagen, Toyota and the Renault-Nissan alliance. PSA's Carlos Tavares will be chief executive and FCA's John Elkann — the scion of Italy's Agnelli family, which controls FCA through their holding company Exor — chairman of the combined company. The group will include the Fiat, Jeep, Dodge, Ram, Chrysler, Alfa Romeo, Maserati, Peugeot, DS, Opel and Vauxhall brands, allowing it to serve mass and premium passenger car markets as well as those for trucks and light commercial vehicles.

Dodge Grand Caravan to live in fleets through 2017
Mon, Jun 22 2015After a hard-working career of hauling around families for decades, the Dodge Grand Caravan name was set to retire in 2016 under FCA's five-year plan for the US. The decision would have put all of the automaker's focus behind the next-generation Chrysler Town & Country, but that original strategy might have changed. Now, Dodge's minivan may have to work just a few more years before it can finally shuffle off. There are set to be 2016 and 2017 model year examples of the current Grand Caravan, according to an internal FCA production document obtained by Automotive News. This report suggests no changes in the minivan between those two years, and there's no mention of the company's intentions deeper into the future. "While we've announced the Grand Caravan will eventually be the minivan that goes away, we're not going into more detail at this time," a Dodge spokesperson said to AN. For the next Town & Country, production would start in Windsor, Ontario, in late February 2016. This document also suggests a brief run of 2016 Chrysler minivans based on the current model from August 2015 until February 2016. Automotive News speculates that the reprieve for the Grand Caravan could allow that model to focus on fleets and the Canadian market while the new Town and Country gets up and running. The latest generation T&C will reportedly debut at the 2016 Detroit Auto Show and will possibly carry a higher price to befit a vehicle with a more modern platform and improved tech.
