1964 Imperial Convertible With Factory Ac. "refreshed Original" on 2040-cars
Solana Beach, California, United States
1964 Imperial Crown Covertible. “Refreshed Original” with AC
One of 922 Made.
This is a very nice, stock car that has been “refreshed” with one same-color paint job, new leather in the front seats and all mechanical attention required to make it a comfortable, safe and reliable driver. Front Chrome is gorgeous, rear is ok (but RE-CHROMED BUMPER comes with the car).
THIS CAR HAS NO RUST ON IT NOW, NOR DID IT EVER. NOW in San Diego, it was originally from SPOKANE, WA (DESERT ENVIRONMENT).
This car runs beautifully and is a joy to drive. It is quiet and smooth and does not smoke-FROM ANYWHERE.
The car still has its correct “bubble” windshield (Imperial fans will know what I’m talking about); still has correct skirts on the back of the front seats; still has correct, original top well liner with drains; still has the highly sought after ORIGINAL PARADE BOOTS and center piece; ORIGINAL (but worn) carpet; Original and Near Perfect Door Panels and all interior panels; Original dash top with only two SMALL cracks (again, Imperial folks will recognize this as rare); still has its original Jiffy-Jet; Still has its original Carburetor and Air Cleaner; Still has its correct Fan Clutch and Fan Shroud; Original Jack and spare and they are stowed correctly with spring and wood chock.
Over the past 2 years I have done the following work: 1. Rebuilt original carburetor 2. Replaced all 4 tires 3. Replaced the convertible Top and Rear Window 4. Replaced the Master Cylinder 5. Re-Cored the original Radiator with 4 core 6. Plugs, Points, Condenser, Wires, Cap, Rotor. 7. Replaced Front Brake Shoes 8. Replaced All RUBBER brake Lines 9. Replaced Water Pump 10.Replaced all Belts and Hoses 11. Replaced Heater Valve (Ranco H-16) 12. Rebuilt HVAC Vacuum/Electric switch 13. New Battery 14. Replaced Starter with Rebuilt 15. Replaced Windlace
The car has functioning factory Air Conditioning that has NOT been charged but all switch positions result in proper opening/closing of heat and AC doors and correct actuation of AC Compressor. I noticed that the Receiver/Dryer/ Strainer HAS been replaced with a newer unit so I will assume that at some time in the recent past the AC was working. The Heater is Excellent and neither the heater core nor the heater valve leaks. All 4 Power Windows work, but some are slow. BOTH 4 Way Power Seats work in all directions Passenger Side Recliner works All Interior and Exterior lights work (including Ash tray and Glove Compartment) The rare and original first year AM/FM factory radio plays beautifully on AM and on FM. The ORIGINAL Power Antenna goes all the way up and all the way down-from the switch, as it should. The original and first year Tilt Wheel works as it should. ALL Hood Snubbers and Door Snubbers and Trunk Snubbers and Gas Tank Door snubbers present. DOOR HINGES WITH SPRINGS FUNCTION CORRECTLY.
The car does have a couple of drips – AS THEY ALL DID EVEN WHEN THEY WERE ONLY A COUPLE OF YEARS OLD. (I KNOW, MY FATHER HAD THEM THEN).
This is NOT a perfect car or a SHOW car, but an EXTREMELY NICE car that looks beautiful-even close up (and is) original in appearance and equipment and will take you wherever you point it. Even better, you won’t see yourself coming and going because this is truly one of the rarest cars of the 60’s. NINE HUNDRED TWENTY TWO EVER MADE.
The car is REGISTERED, TITLED and INSURED IN MY NAME. I OWN
IT. Check my Feedback and look at the pictures. |

Chrysler recalling 31k SUVs and vans
Fri, 06 Jun 2014Chrysler is issuing recalls covering roughly 31,700 vehicles worldwide due to two separate problems. In both cases the company believes that most of the affected vehicles are either still on, or in transit to, dealer lots.
One recall covers roughly 10,700 Dodge Durango, Jeep Cherokee, Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee SRT models from the 2014 model year built between January 16 and April 17, 2014. The SUVs need a software update for the cruise control. It's possible that when the cruise is on and the driver presses on the throttle, the acceleration could last a second after the pedal is released or two seconds for the SRT. Afterward, they return to the speed originally set by the driver.
Chrysler says it isn't aware of any accidents, injuries or even reported incidents of this happening in the real world. Also, in all cases, if the driver presses on the brake, the cruise shuts off. The automaker believes that there are about 6,100 affected SUVs in the US, 950 in Canada, 425 in Mexico and 3,200 outside of North America. The software upgrade will be ready shortly, the company says.
Chrysler unveils Dodge Charger SRT8 392, 300 SRT Concept to the faithful
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Our man Steven J. Ewing recently spent some time in a 2013 Dodge Charger SRT8 Super Bee, and while he found a lot to love - particularly underhood - he didn't care for the sedan's retro-steeped visuals, preferring the standard SRT's look instead. Perhaps he'll dig this throwback look instead. Over the weekend, Chrysler unveiled this handsome 2013 Dodge Charger SRT8 392 Appearance Package at the eighth annual Spring Festival of LXs, a gathering of Charger, Challenger and Chrysler 300 enthusiasts held in Irvine, California.
Unveiled by SRT CEO Ralph Gilles in front of an estimated 2,500 Spring Fest goers, the 392 features 20-inch Black Vapor Chrome alloys set off by a black-painted roof panel, hood bulge, spoiler and mirror caps. Additional exterior changes include model-specific striping and badging along with the requisite serialized dash plaque inside. The 392 will be available in five colors - Billet Silver Metallic, Bright White, Hemi Orange, Plum Crazy and the TorRed pain seen here.
Performance-wise, the 392 remains unchanged from standard SRT8s, but that's hardly a slight - the 6.4 liter Hemi V8 continues to churn out 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels. Like other 2013 SRT8s, the 392 benefits from the institution of a new launch control system and a retuned three-mode adaptive suspension.
Chrysler 300 SRT dead in US, updated elsewhere
Sat, Aug 29 2015The Chrysler 300 SRT is officially dead here in the US, but the sedan's big V8 continues to rumble in a handful of other markets around the world. In fact, the model just received a refresh abroad to fit the standard version's recently updated styling. According to Car and Driver, customers in countries like Australia, Japan, South Africa, South Korea, and a few other places can stop by their local Chrysler dealer soon to pick up some of this imported muscle. For the refresh, the 300 SRT's 6.4-liter V8 remains under the hood producing 470 horsepower, and it's now hooked up to an eight-speed automatic gearbox. The styling also gets some updates like LED lights in the lower air dam, a reshaped mesh grille with the SRT logo, and a simplified design for the taillights. If it seems odd to go to the work of updating the 300 SRT's styling, while killing off the model in the US, the reason has to do with FCA's brand strategy here. Dodge is supposed to be the automaker's performance marque in America, and according to Car and Driver, Jeep gets to keep SRT branding on the Grand Cherokee because of the brawny SUV's popularity. That might not last much longer, because reports suggest a Hellcat-powered Trackhawk is on the way. Related Video:
