1963 Chrysler "Crown" Imperial

You are bidding on a 1963 Chrysler "Crown" Imperial.  This 2-owner classic luxury car was first driven as a chauffeured vehicle in St. Petersberg, FL.  It was then purchased in the mid-60's and driven as a central Florida family car until ~1998.  It was garage-stored until 2009.  It is currently NOT RUNNING; however, ALL parts are original.  Please examine the photos.

The original hood latch has broken off and was replaced with a home-made substitute; however, the original hood latch is included with this auction.  The back driver's side door is stuck and will not open with normal force.   An extra set of wheel covers is also included with this auction and are pictured in the trunk of the car.

Aside from the obvious effects of weather and time, there are three minor blemishes:  a horizontal dent and scratch in the back passenger door of the car, a dent in the front chrome bumper on the driver's side, and a small section of broken chrome near the trunk ( all seen in the photos).   This car has spent it's life in Central Florida where there is no snow, ice, or salted roadways!

The winning bidder must make arrangements to have the vehicle towed and transported from it's current location in southern Polk County, FL as it is not running

This vehicle is the perfect project car as all parts are ORIGINAL!  Take advantage of this fantastic opportunity to restore this classic luxury car to it's original splendor!  BID NOW!  Don't let it pass you by!

Fiat Chrysler's London offices will be small, with financial focus

Tue, 20 May 2014

Fiat Chrysler's decision to locate its new corporate headquarters in jolly old London won't herald a sprawling relocation effort. Instead, it's very likely that the FCA outfit will be a small one, primarily focused on finance.
The report comes from Automotive News Europe, which claims FCA's London office will employ about 50 people with backgrounds in finance. CEO Sergio Marchionne and Fiat Group Chairman John Elkann will both have offices at the corporate headquarters, as well.
ANE cites an anonymous source that claims the people employed at the London office will focus primarily on treasury operations. It's unlikely that FCA will take on any additional employees specifically for its UK offices. That said, FCA isn't likely to downsize either its Turin or Auburn Hills offices once London comes online.

Chrysler IPO to be filed as early as this week

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

An initial public offering for the Chrysler Group could happen this week, following Sergio Marchionne's comments to Financial Times in London, according to a report from The Detroit News. Fiat, which owns 58.5 percent of Chrysler, has been in a battle with the UAW retiree healthcare trust over its minority stake in the company. While the automotive union recognizes its role as a temporary shareholder, the two couldn't come to an agreement on how the shares should be priced.
As Marchionne explained to FT, a Chrysler IPO allows the market, rather than the two competing sides, to determine the value of the shares. The public offering is a risky move, which could potentially hang one side out to dry - if the shares go high, it's bad news for Fiat, but if they go low, the UAW stands to lose. Regardless of where the stock prices go in an IPO, though, it's a move that's being supported by analysts, who are quick to cite Chrysler's near-constant growth and a product lineup that is getting healthier with each new introduction.

Fiat-Chrysler CEO: Please Don't Buy The Fiat 500e

Wed, May 21 2014

Fiat-Chrysler's CEO had a strange request for electric vehicle shoppers on Wednesday: don't buy the all-electric Fiat 500e. While CEO Sergio Marchionne was speaking at a conference in Washington, he told the crowd he's tired of Chrysler-Fiat losing money, The Detroit News reported. "I hope you don't buy it [the 500e] because every time I sell one it costs me $14,000," he said to the audience at the Brookings Institution. "I'm honest enough to tell you that." Marchionne said federal and state fuel efficiency mandates are forcing the automaker to build unprofitable cars, according to Reuters. A normal Fiat 500 starts at $16,195, and the 500e starts at $32,650, before federal and state tax credits. There are no sales data to indicate how the 500e is performing.
