I had to relist this auction because I was not able to add the info needed to the first one. When I brought the car to my house as described below the truck was locked and there was no key. While fielding questions about parts I realized there is too much missing from the car and I remember seeing all that stuff at some point. Anyway, I got into the truck and found all of the missing parts. So I canceled the first auction and started this one. This way everyone has all of the information from the start. Thank you. I used to drive it all the time but over the past ten years it has been sitting in my driveway. I changed the top but my cat and the weather were able to tear it up. The car was always stored with a high quality cover. I changed the cover about five times over the years. The car was last stored at my office for about six years. I just sold that building and so you can see in some of the photos the car was towed to my house. I just now wrapped it in the blue non breathable tarp knowing it would only be here for a week or two. My village is very picky about unregistered cars in the driveway, which is why I covered it. The car is all original. The dashboard with the dome panel. The push button transmission gears. All of the chrome. Most of the missing interior parts in the photos are packed nicely in the trunk. The car has little to no surface rust. I haven't started the engine in a few years. This car needs a full restoration. I have a clean TRANSFERABLE REGISTRATION, which in NY for 1970 and older is the same thing as a title. It is a great project car for anyone who has the time and the effort. The car is located on Long Island in NY. Anyone is welcome to see the car before or after winning the auction. Once payment is made the sale will be final. Buyer is responsible for all transpiration of the vehicle. The car must be removed within ten days of sale. About the car itself. The engine is a big block. I am not sure of the engine size exactly. There is one carb and everything is original. At some point I was going to restore the car and so I took apart the interior. It is all sitting in the trunk. All the door panels and little reading lights and power window switches are all there. There exterior 300 emblems are in great condition. The top is ripped up but the mechanics of the top work fine. You can see the truck photos show no rust or bond. Even though the car sat it held up very well. This was a running and driving car with working everything when I last used it. But that was a while ago. So the only thing wrong with the car would be time and lack of use. |

Preserving automotive history costs big bucks
Wed, 29 Jan 2014
$1.8 million is spent each year to maintain GM's fleet of 600 production and concept cars.
When at least two of the Detroit Three were on the verge of death a few years back, one of the tough questions that was asked of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler execs - outside of why execs were still taking private planes to meetings - was why each company maintained huge archives of old production and concept vehicles. GM, for example, had an 1,100-vehicle collection when talk of a federal bailout began.
Maserati's new North American CEO is Chrysler's dealer guru
Wed, 13 Nov 2013There's been a bit of a shakeup among the executive ranks at Chrysler and Maserati, as the Italian sports car manufacturer has appointed Peter Grady as its new North American CEO. Grady, who we imagine is about to get a very nice upgrade to his company car, will retain his role as vice president of dealer network development for Chrysler and Chrysler Capital, and is replacing Bob Graczyk at Maserati.
"It is with pleasure and anticipation that I welcome Peter to Maserati. He brings to our company nearly 30 years of leadership and experience. His background and industry expertise will be a great basis for the continued expansion of Maserati in North America," said Maserati CEO Harald Wester in a statement.
Also joining the team at Maserati is Saad Chehab, who previously worked for the Chrysler and Lancia brands and will be the new head of marketing for the Italian brand. He'll be replaced by Al Gardner, the former boss of Chrysler's southeast business center, as the head of Chrysler brand, according to Automotive News.
Hurricane Sandy cost automakers 15,000 vehicles, may have ruined up to 200k
Wed, 07 Nov 2012Hurricane Sandy was the largest Atlantic storm in US history, and its total economic impact is just now coming into view. According to Automotive News, Toyota, Chrysler, Nissan and Honda are set to scrap around 15,000 new vehicles ruined by the storm. Nissan alone accounts for about 40 percent of those, with 6,000 Nissan and Infiniti models deeded "un-saleable" due to damage. The company saw 56 dealerships shuttered due to the storm, but 51 of those have since reopened.
Toyota, meanwhile, had some 4,000 vehicles at its Newark port facility, and of those, 3,000 may be scrapped. An additional 825 were dealer inventory when they were ruined. Honda and Acura dealers are reportedly sending 3,440 vehicles to the salvage yard. By comparison, Chrysler weathered the storm fairly well with 825 units destroyed, while Hyundai suffered only 400 lost units and Kia scrapped around 200.
As you may recall, Fisker also suffered some losses, and Automotive News reports the manufacturer saw 320 Karma models damaged beyond repair. Ford and General Motors have yet to come up with estimates, and no automaker has commented on the full cost of replacing the vehicles.
