Two 1979 300's for sale.  One is a good survivor, other would need a complete restoration.

I'm the original owner of this 1979 Chrysler 300.  It has 9,8xx miles and still has the original window sticker stuck to the window. Have all original paperwork from when I bought it (broadcast sheet, title, inspections etc).  It has the original drivetrain in it and runs and drives fine.  Always wins trophys when we take it to shows.  The interior is in good shape overall.  Some of the door panels and trim pieces have faded, which is very common on these cars(I have two more).  But this has not gone more than around the block or on and off the trailer at car shows.  So this wouldn't be a car to buy, fly in and drive it home.  I would definitely trailer it as it has most of the original fluids and the original tires.

Has a ding here and there and a nickel sized surface rust spot as shown in the pictures by the rear window. Front end was repainted in the early 2000's.  The undercarriage has some surface rust, but has no soft spots or holes anywhere on the car. One of the front tires has a cut on the side, but could probably be switched with the spare tire. Some pitting on chrome in spots.  Has new exhaust on it and an aftermarket stereo head unit. Other than that, it's original.  (pictures available of everything)

The second one that goes with this is a 2 fender tag 1979 300.  There was another one at the Mopar Nationals that claimed only 321 were made with t-tops.  It is loaded with just about every option (power windows, t-tops, power locks, etc).  It needs a new trunk floor, interior redone, quarter panel work, motor redone, possibly transmission, and other spots which have rust.  Driver fender needs work/replaced. Needs a COMPLETE restoration.  Clean title though.

$500 non-refundable deposit is due within 48 hours after the end of the auction.  Cars must be picked up and fully paid for within 14 days after the end of auction, unless otherwise discussed.  Car will be paid in full before it leaves my possession.  Cash, paypal(and you take the fee's), or wire the money to my bank account.  Can help with loading.  Any questions, feel free to email me on here and I will get back asap.  If you want more pictures just ask, I have over 100 showing all imperfections, top, bottom, everything.  I've sold two cars on here in the past year($6,500 and $12,500) and bought one 2.5 years ago ($30K) and still have perfect feedback.

Detroit's new emergency city manager worked on Chrysler bankruptcy [w/video]

Fri, 15 Mar 2013


Kevyn Orr, the new emergency city manager of Detroit, has a history with one of Michigan's most famous residents: Chrysler. Governor Rick Snyder (at right) appointed Orr to the position yesterday with the belief that Detroit needs outside assistance to right the city's mounting financial woes. Orr (at left), a partner with the Jones Day law firm, will begin work on March 25 and receive $275,000 a year for his work. While state officials believe the new city manager will be able to complete his duties in 18 months, the contract is technically open-ended.
The 54-year-old attorney helped steer Chrysler through its 2009 bankruptcy, earning $700 per hour for his efforts. He was also instrumental in convincing the courts to allow Chrysler to shutter 789 dealerships in a single month. Orr says he's aware that his efforts won't have made him any friends in Southern Michigan.

Final Toledo Jeep decision may have nothing to do with city's efforts

Mon, Apr 13 2015

Toledo, OH is doing all that it can to keep production of the Jeep Wrangler in its boundaries, but the biggest issue facing the plant may be insurmountable, no matter how desperately the city wants to keep the Wrangler local. The Wrangler is built in a rather interesting manner at the Toledo Supplier Park: Fiat Chrysler only handles the very final assembly of each vehicle, while two other companies, Kuka, a German firm, and Hyundai-Mobis, a member of the sprawling Hyundai empire, produce the body and chassis, respectively. The vehicles are then transferred over to the FCA part of the park, where they're painted and completed. This was, as The Detroit News explains, a convenient arrangement back in 2006 when the supplier park opened. Chrysler, which was still owned by Daimler at the time, arranged for Kuka and Mobis to handle production, saving it a huge sum of money. Both suppliers own their own machinery and buildings and employ their own workers. Now that FCA is a relatively healthy entity, though, there's not a lot of need to be sharing profits with two other companies. "What [FCA boss Sergio Marchionne] would like is to have the advantages of high-capacity utilization, owning that capacity and taking advantage of that for himself versus having a supplier doing some of the things his competitors do internally," David Cole, chairman emeritus at the Ann Arbor, MI-based Center for Automotive Research, told The News. "It really adds another level of complexity to the situation." While Sergio Marchionne is a man that generally gets what he wants, it seems unlikely that either Mobis or Kuka would give up their role quietly. According to Jon Zapf, Mobis North America's chairperson for UAW Local 12, the company "definitely wants to maintain their part of this production process." According to The News, Jeep is likely to announce the location of next-generation Wrangler production in June. Expect to hear much more on this one in the coming months.

Stellantis wants to trim 3,500 hourly U.S. jobs, UAW says

Wed, Apr 26 2023

WASHINGTON — Chrysler-parent Stellantis NV wants to cut approximately 3,500 hourly U.S. jobs and is offering voluntary exit packages, according to a United Auto Workers union letter made public Tuesday. The automaker is looking to reduce its hourly workforce offering incentive packages that include $50,000 payments for workers hired before 2007, UAW Local 1264 said in a letter dated Monday posted on its Facebook page. Stellantis spokeswoman Jodi Tinson declined to comment. A person briefed on the matter said the figure might be lower than the figure cited in the UAW letter. In late February, Stellantis indefinitely halted operations at an assembly plant in Illinois, citing rising costs of electric vehicle production. The action impacted about 1,350 workers at the Belvidere, Illinois, plant that built the Jeep Cherokee SUV and resulted in indefinite layoffs. The automaker has warned it may not resume operations as it considers other options. The UAW letter said openings created by workers leaving would be filled by workers on indefinite layoff. Stellantis said in February that about 40,000 U.S. hourly workers were eligible for profit sharing. Last week, UAW President Shawn Fain said Stellantis' decision to idle the Illinois plant was "a flat-out violation" of the union's contract with the UAW and is unacceptable. The UAW will enter talks with the Detroit Three before labor contracts expire in mid-September. Earlier this month, General Motors said about 5,000 salaried workers accepted buyouts to leave the automaker. GM CEO Mary Barra said February job cuts of a few hundred jobs and the 5,000 buyouts "provided approximately $1 billion towards" a $2 billion cost cutting target. Ford Motor Co recently announced significant job cuts in Spain, Germany and other parts of Europe and in August said it would cut a total of 3,000 salaried and contract jobs, mostly in North America and India.
