A fun reliable strong running car with only a few of the usual suspects with these old cars. New brakes 2000 milers ago which included new master cylinder, front and rear wheel cylinders, shoes all the way around. New plugs and points and tune up 200 miles ago. The thing runs great. Starts up first thing in the cold morning - automatic choke works great. When I bought the car it had an aftermarket air cleaner on it. The previous owner had the seats reupholstered in a very tasteful almost period looking fabric and vinyl. ZERO rust anywhere on the car. I believe it spent most of its life in Oklahoma and California before coming to New Mexico. One repaint that now has some areas of clearcoat peeling mostly on the hood and top of drivers rear fender. Tires have plenty of life left. No crash damage or dents. Some mile peppering to chrome taillights. Trunk area very nice with no stains to carpet. Non smoker car apparently most of its life. All glass is in great shape. Nothing is leaking and oil always looks clean. Dash has two splits - one on binnacle and other by speaker grill. Steering wheel has a few splits. The steering is telescopic and works great.

OK - the things that need work but no rush - drivers side rear window does not operate - bad switch or motor?. The front windows roll down quickly and nicely. The passenger rear is slow and occasionally needs assistance. The air conditioner does not blow cold. The headliner seam over the rear seat has a blown seam - a few safety pins keep it up. Some door seals are worn. Odometer stopped working the day I bought it making tons of noise then "pop" and all silent which is common for these cars with old grease and plastic gears - this is my third big chrysler and they all have failed on me eventually. Title says actual miles and if you get the plastic replacement gear you can continue logging miles on your new title.

I'm sure there are some minor things I'm forgetting and will update as I remember but this car has been great. It doesnt smoke and pulls strong. I trust the car to cross the country so if you want to fly in and drive home it is completely reliable plus Santa Fe aint a bad place to visit! However, being an old car, I recommend a AAA membership and will not guarantee that something won't blow up down the road. Sold as-is where is and I will work with your shipper to get it loaded and document the process with photographs.

I had previously posted the car and had a lot of overseas interest. Please, I'm happy to arrange and help with shipping to your port of choice here in the USA but I will not make arrangements to get the car overseas - that is your job. There were some misunderstandings in the prior auction that I would do this. I'm selling the car quite cheap and it's not worth the effort for me to micro-manage the shipment to europe. I have successfully shipped to ports of choice in the past and can hold the car for 2-3 weeks after the sale while you make arrangements.

This is a great car and gets compliments and looks wherever I go in it. And, she is RUST FREE.

FCA may sell off Magneti Marelli

Mon, Jul 20 2015

FCA is reportedly just days away from filing the official prospectus for the Ferrari initial public offering, and it could put the Italian sportscar maker's value at $11 billion. Although, Sergio Marchionne always seems to have another iron in the fire, and his next big deal could shed the automotive giant's Magneti Marelli parts business to the tune of $3.3 billion. According to Reuters citing anonymous insider sources, at least two private equity firms are considering joint submitting bids with firms already in the industry. This deal has reportedly been in the works for at least the last few weeks. According to Reuters, FCA already rejected a roughly $2.7-billion offer in June. Marchionne apparently wants at least the equivalent of $3.3 billion for the company. Publicly, FCA isn't talking, though. Company spokesperson Gualberto Ranieri told Reuters and reiterated to Autoblog simply that Magneti Marelli wasn't for sale. However, a move to get rid of the parts company has been discussed in the past. In 2013, the business was rumored to be part of a purported arrangement to sell Alfa Romeo to Audi. While there's no final decision yet, according to Reuters, if the Magneti Marelli sale does move forward the decision would likely come sometime after the Ferrari IPO. The company would likely be split up among the various divisions. "Everyone will take a fair share of it," one of the anonymous sources to Reuters.

FB Tuning debuts 400-hp carbon-bodied Chrysler Crossfire in Monaco

Wed, 30 Apr 2014

The Chrysler Crossfire was, suffice it to say, a matter of taste. Based on old Mercedes-Benz mechanicals, it included retro styling accents and an armadillo roofline. Some loved it, but there was clearly room for improvement - not to mention more sales - and that's just what Italian coachbuilder FB Tuning had to showcase at the Top Marques show in Monaco this year.
Called the FB-ONE, it's based on the Crossfire, which itself was based on the same R170 chassis as the first-generation Mercedes-Benz SLK. It packs the same 3.2-liter V6 as well, which FB claims to have tuned farther than anything Daimler-Chrysler ever managed with the same engine. Whereas the SLK32 AMG packed 354 horsepower and the Crossfire SRT-6 offered 330, the FB-One packs a nice, round 400 hp, which ought to be good for a 0-60 time of little over four seconds.
As you can see, that's not all they've done with FB-One. It's also been rebodied in carbon fiber, with gold accents, deep-dish alloys that look like they came out of a casino and the headlights from an Audi A8. Whether the result is your cup of tea likely depends, as it did with the Crossfire in the first place, on your own personal tastes, so check it out for yourself in the video below.

NHTSA closes book on Jeep 'trailer hitch' recall after all

Mon, 20 Jan 2014

After much debating and hand-wringing, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration now says it has "no reservations" with Chrysler's plan to recall certain Jeep Liberty and Grand Cherokee models over concerns that their fuel tanks, which are located behind the rear axle, could rupture or leak in the event of a rear impact. The longstanding argument between the two entities saw Chrysler openly defy the Feds after a request to recall 2.7 million units back in June.
Chrysler's "voluntary campaign" will instead see it recall 1.56-million 1993-2004 model year Grand Cherokee SUVs, along with 2002-2007 Liberty models. Affected vehicles will get a trailer hitch installed free of charge, which Chrysler says will provide an additional degree of protection for the fuel tanks in the event of a crash. Jeeps with Mopar-branded hitches or hitches that were installed at the factory aren't affected by this recall.
Chrysler's argument throughout this battle has been that the Jeeps in question are no more susceptible to fires than comparable vehicles from the same time period, a position that NHTSA has seemingly arrived at as well. "Those vehicles performed at a rate similar to their peers. That is the keystone analysis as to whether something poses an unreasonable risk to safety," said outgoing NHTSA boss David Strickland during an interview with the The Associated Press.
