The 1979 Chrysler 300 Cordoba Special Edition was a one-year-only special that Chrysler marketed during some of the company's worst financial times. The Cordoba had been out since 1975 and was a big success for the company, selling nearly 150,000 per year. It was similar to the Monte Carlo and Grand Prix that General Motors sold in those times of a 'personal luxury car'. Big, heavy, V-8 cars with a nice ride and an appetite for lots of gasoline. The 300 was put together with all the high performance parts that Chrysler had in their parts bins for the police cars. It had heavy duty suspension, the largest performance engine at the time, a 360 cubic inch, high performance, 4 barrel carbed affair from the famed Little Red Express truck and the police cars. I had a fairly low-geared rear axle ratio of 3.21:l for a little more performance at the expense of gas mileage. Even the transmission was heavy-duty, so it shifted a little harder and you could hold your foot on the gas pedal longer in each gear. There were 300 badges and decals all over the car, including the inside red interior with a fancy metal-turned look instrument cluster featuring a tachometer along with all the other instruments. All the cars got the red leather interior with a console mounted shifter. Was it a good car? Indeed it was, and they are now considered 'collectible' and the values are rising. It started and ran and drove well, very much like its sister cars, was a little quicker, rode a little rougher and of course, the above-mentioned like for gasoline in larger quantities.

With 70,000 miles this 300 has been very well cared for over the years, the exterior of the car is finished in its original white paint in very good condition with the exception of a few touch ups on the passenger door. The original white paint has held up very well over the years and still has its original red and blue stripes around the car, the lower stainless is in good condition as well as the front and rear bumpers. The cars all original sheet metal and has zero rust issues including the floors as seen in the photos .Original wheels are still in the car with white wall tires being on the inside  it is missing the front left center cap. All glass is original and not blemed.

The interior of the car is 100% stock, the leather interior is in very good condition with the exception of the passenger outer top of the seat have having a small tear. The dash has a small split and so does the driver door arm rest. All gauges light signals and horn where are working and the cars equipped with an optional factory 8 track radio and working Ac that just need a shot of Freon to get it cold.
This 300 runs very well having always been cared for, the car runs cool, shifts nicely through all the gears, brakes and suspension also are in good working condition.

Hot sales have Detroit automakers shortening summer shutdowns

Tue, 08 Jul 2014

Back in May, there was speculation that the Detroit Three automakers would maintain or perhaps even extend their traditional summer shutdowns, mostly due to a bitingly cold winter that saw below-freezing temperatures infiltrate the southernmost reaches of the US, putting a chill on auto sales. Now, though, the numbers are in, and thanks to some promising sales figures, it looks like some domestic line workers are going to be working clear through July, in some cases.
According to Automotive News, Ford has slashed its traditional two-week hiatus for factory workers in half at four of its plants, while both Chrysler and General Motors will keep factories running nonstop (two plants in Chrysler's case and a third of GM's factories).
This is, as we said, thanks to some positive numbers. Chief among those is the Seasonal Adjusted Annual Rate, which was at an eight-year high of 17 million units. Individual figures were less promising. GM, embroiled in its recall scandal, still saw a one-percent increase while Ford dropped six percent in year-over-year sales. Chrysler was the big winner, though, with a nine-percent jump in June.

Does the future of Fiat-Chrysler include Dodge?

Thu, 13 Jun 2013

Wards Auto reports the future of Dodge is looking uncertain. Fiat has more or less laid out it's game plan for the next few years, and while the Chrysler, Fiat and Jeep lines are set to receive plenty of love, Dodge isn't so lucky. Fiat has already hobbled Dodge significantly by splitting off the brand's trucks into a separate Ram line.
Wards says that after the Avenger rides off into the sunset early next year, Fiat-Chrysler won't replace the model, leaving a gaping midsize hole in the Dodge lineup. The report also cites unnamed sources as saying that at least two other current Dodge products will move to the Chrysler line.
One of those could very well be the Grand Caravan. Chrysler has already made it clear that it plans to trim redundancy between its minivan offerings, but it has yet to clarify which other vehicle could sail under the Chrysler banner moving forward. Either way, such changes to the product line would theoretically leave Dodge with just four models.

Junkyard Gem: 1979 Chrysler Cordoba

Thu, Oct 20 2016

The original Cordoba personal luxury coupe, which debuted for the 1975 model year, was a big hit for Chrysler. Through the 1979 model year, it was based on the successful Chrysler B-Body platform, making it a sibling to the Dukes of Hazzard Charger and Governor Moonbeam's Plymouth Satellite sedan. I see a surprising number of Cordobas showing up in the self-service wrecking yards I frequent in California and Colorado, and this two-tone '79 showed up in a San Francisco Bay Area yard a while back. You could get the 1979 Cordoba with typical 1970s fuzzy-velour seats, but this one has the iconic Corinthian Leather of Ricardo Montalban fame. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Yes, soft Corinthian Leather! This one has just about every possible option, if we are to go by the information in the brochure. The vinyl landau roof and two-tone paint were for serious buyers only. This V8 is either a 318 or a 360, and we won't discuss the depressing power figures that you get with engines of the late 1970s. Worth restoring? Not in this kind of condition. Source of parts for other, more valuable B-bodies? Yes. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.
