1950 Chrysler Windsor / Royal on 2040-cars
Staten Island, New York, United States
|
Hello there prospective bidders, This is a 1950 Chrysler Royal with only 32141 miles; I purchased it from an adorable little old lady who had it parked in her garage since her husband died in 1968. He was the original and only owner. He really must have loved this car because he took very good care of it. I love this car also and when I started working on it I intended to keep it forever, however I also have a 1965 Impala that has been languishing on jack stands now for a few years so I've decided to pass this beauty on for someone else to enjoy. I have been through this car with a fine toothed comb and except for the door moldings which are still good I have changed everything that has rubber in it. Everything works as it should in this car including the lighter, and it is ready to drive anywhere including cross country. The Fluidmatic shifts great and is a pleasure to drive. The following is a list of things I have done to this car, I’m a mechanic not a body guy so the car still has the original paint, you can see in the pics under the car where the undercoating has fallen off that the paint is still shiny. She is unmolested and like a time capsule. I adapted the rims for new heavy duty Hankook tubeless tires. NOS fuel tank coated inside and out. New fuel sending unit and calibrated with gauge in dash. New fuel pump. Entire new brake system including master cylinder. Rebuilt distributor and vacuum advance. Rebuilt starter. Rebuilt generator. New plugs and wires. Repacked front and rear bearings with new seals. Rebuilt carburetor. Repacked U Joints. Removed cleaned and greased wiper motor and linkages. Changed oil, dropped oil pan and cleaned residue from the old oil. Changed transmission oil not once but 2x. Changed rear end oil same 2x. All new coolant hoses. New exhaust. Dropped cleaned filter housing and installed drain plug. Spares with the car, 2 manuals one is new. Oil pressure gauge hose. 2 headlights. New coil. 4 Hub caps. New hub puller for rear wheels. I have a color copy of the original title; I had to turn the original in for the registration. Original spare tire, tire tools and even unused green wood tire chock. I also have anything I took off the car including the old tires and brake cylinders if you should want them. This really is a great car and I hope it goes to someone who will appreciate it. You can feel safe to drive it anywhere and I have even had my 4yo daughter’s baby seat in it (I had to pull the rear seat to find suitable anchors for it). Buyers this car is in fantastic shape for being 64 y/o , like I said, I'm not a body and paint guy so if any paint came off the car I touched it up with some primer to keep it protected. You can rest assured that there is only good clean 1950's metal on this car. Please look closely at the pics and around the wheel wells, it all clean. If you would like additional pics, I can send them to you. Buyer is responsible for shipping. If you have any questions call or text me at 347-204-6477 and I will get back to you. Good luck and happy bidding. Thanks for looking. |

Chrysler earns $1.7B in 2012, revises product plans for US
Wed, 30 Jan 2013Hot on the heels of Ford's earnings announcement for the year that was, Chrysler today reported a 2012 net income of $1.7 billion, up substantially from the comparatively minuscule $183 million profit earned in 2011 when it repaid its US government loans.
Chrysler's good year ended with an excellent fourth quarter that saw net income rise 68 percent from $225 million in 2011 to $378 million. Where are all those extra earnings coming from? Market share, which Chrysler saw increase to 11.4% last year on sales of 1.65 million vehicles. In fact, the Auburn Hills, MI-based automaker out-paced the industry's market growth of 13 percent last year with sales up 21 percent for the year.
The company also revealed an updated product plan for its Chrysler Group and Fiat brands that looks all the way out to 2016. It's an updated version of the plan introduced in 2009 shortly after Fiat took control of the American automaker, and includes such new additions as an Alfa Romeo model, likely the 4C, to be introduced in the US this year, as well five more Alfa models by 2016. Likewise, Fiat will be growing by an additional seven models in the coming few years.
Question of the Day: Most heinous act of badge engineering?
Wed, Dec 30 2015Badge engineering, in which one company slaps its emblems on another company's product and sells it, has a long history in the automotive industry. When Sears wanted to sell cars, a deal was made with Kaiser-Frazer and the Sears Allstate was born. Iranians wanted new cars in the 1960s, and the Rootes Group was happy to offer Hillman Hunters for sale as Iran Khodro Paykans. Sometimes, though, certain badge-engineered vehicles made sense only in the 26th hour of negotiations between companies. The Suzuki Equator, say, which was a puzzling rebadge job of the Nissan Frontier. How did that happen? My personal favorite what-the-heck-were-they-thinking example of badge engineering is the 1971-1973 Plymouth Cricket. Chrysler Europe, through its ownership of the Rootes Group, was able to ship over Hillman Avanger subcompacts for sale in the US market. This would have made sense... if Chrysler hadn't already been selling rebadged Mitsubishi Colt Galants (as Dodge Colts) and Simca 1100s as (Simca 1204s) in its American showrooms. Few bought the Cricket, despite its cheery ad campaign. So, what's the badge-engineered car you find most confounding?

Chrysler Recalling 870,000 SUVs For Brake Defect
Wed, Apr 2 2014Chrysler is recalling nearly 870,000 SUVs because corrosion may make the vehicles' brakes harder to use. Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from the 2011 through 2014 model years are involved. Chrysler says crimp joints in the brake boosters can corrode if they're exposed to water. If the water freezes, the boosters won't aid braking as they usually do. Chrysler began investigating after some customers said their brakes felt too firm when pressed down. The company knows of one accident, but no injuries, due to the defect. Dealers will install a shield to protect the boosters for free and replace boosters that aren't working properly. Chrysler has since changed the design to make the boosters more corrosion resistant. Chrysler will notify owners of the recall, which involves 867,795 vehicles.
