1970 Chrysler Imperial LeBaron survivor car.  First the bad:  This original comes with original dings, dents, and scratches that a car will pick up from use, but all are minor.  Some cracks on the rear corner markers from what appears to be a light swipe - both sides, unfortunately.  Headliner in the rear driver-side corner is beginning to come loose, but is intact.  Vinyl top under the rear window was repaired (underneath has some surface rust but is solid).   Some sealing repair to the trunk - rubber seal was replaced with an alternative that honestly isn't cutting it.  Radio is not factory, and there is a crack in the steering wheel.  Motor could use a tune-up, and the front end could use adjustment to the alignment.  Some of the interior stitching in the seats is beginning to stretch, but there are no rips or tears.  Valve cover gasket has a slight leak, and the radiator is not original, but is still a chrysler manufacture.  NOW THE GOOD:  The interior carpet is immaculate - nice and plush, and not faded or threadbare.  Paint is original, everything works (we haven't tried the AC - probably it needs a recharge), including those pesky diaphragms for the headlights!  Some great details included are that ALL EMBLEMS are intact!  All the chrome is nice and shiny - "imperial" lettering is all there and looking good.  Hubcaps all bear the eagle emblem.  Original rubber floor mat with crest.  Even the extra seat belts mounted over the front doors are there!  Somewhere in this car's history, somebody had the wherewithal to get the underside coated, and the result is that aside from surface rust on exposed heavy metal pieces, the fuel tank, floor pans, and so on are rust free.  The body panels are also rust free with the exception of some surface rust at a few of the seams.  Power windows and seats, and a very smooth ride.  We can account for half of the car's life.  Alternator is new, and new brake master cylinder seal makes for good stops.  We have in the past year driven the car for several hours at a time, and it was smooth all the way.  It is a TRUE SURVIVOR, and a great, rare find - one of only about 11,000 made.  Odometer reads 21K, but likely it has flipped once and is 121K - 200k would make a lot more wear.  Take a look at the pics - there is much to see and scrutinize, but you WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.  Please don't hesitate to ask any questions.  Thanks for looking!

Chrysler hoons Pacifica minivan, issues recall

Fri, Sep 22 2017

Chrysler is recalling about 50,000 Pacifica minivans after finding an issue with a seat belt. According to the NHTSA recall notice, "In certain passenger seating and vehicle situations, the second-row center seating position seat belt buckle could cause the left outboard seat belt to become unlatched." The affected vehicles have the eight-passenger configuration, and includes 47,927 Pacificas in the U.S. from model years 2017 and 2018, plus another 1,908 vehicles in Canada. It appears the problem occurs under spirited driving (or "extreme handling maneuvers"), which is kind of funny, because: minivan. FCA's statement, though, adds a little more clarity. The problem was discovered through Chrysler's own testing, not some dad hooning his minivan on the way to soccer practice. The problem only occurs when there are people sitting in both the center and left outboard seat of the second row. In hard cornering, the left seat belt's release button would come into contact with the center buckle, which caused it to unlatch. FCA will notify owners, and will install a shorter second-row seat belt buckle for free. The automaker is unaware of any injuries related to this issue, but urges customers to "avoid using the second-row center seat in conjunction with the other second-row positions." Better yet, if you're going to autocross your Pacifica this weekend, leave your kids on the sidelines. They're just added weight anyway.

Poor Chrysler 200 sales blamed for 1,420 layoffs in Sterling Heights

Wed, Apr 6 2016

FCA will indefinitely lay off a total of 1,420 workers from its Sterling Heights Assembly and Stamping plants on July 5, according to The Detroit News. This decision will cut a 1,300-person shift that builds the Chrysler 200, and it will also affect 120 people who stamp the sedan's components. The company's statement said the decision would "better align production with demand." FCA plans to give these folks open full-time positions as they become available. Chrysler 200 sales are down 63 percent to just under 18,000 units so far in 2016. After the cuts, there will still be one shift to build the 200, but even then the model won't have much of a future. In January, CEO Sergio Marchionne announced that FCA would discontinue production of the 200 and Dodge Dart because customers were no longer interested in small sedans. All of the roughly 3,000 hourly workers at Sterling Heights have been on a temporary layoff since February 1, according to The Detroit News. They don't go back to work until next week. United Auto Workers Vice President Norwood Jewell released a statement saying that while the "shift reduction at Sterling Heights Assembly is unfortunate, it is not unexpected." However, he was fairly upbeat about the cuts because FCA plans to increase production capacity for trucks and SUVs. "I believe that in the long term this move will be a positive one for our members and the company," he said. During last year's labor negotiations, the UAW's deal reportedly included an agreement for FCA to move 200 and Dodge Dart production to Toluca, Mexico, but the company promised to build the Ram 1500 at Sterling Heights Assembly. FCA spokesperson Jodi Tinson gave no comment about future vehicles at the factory when asked by Autoblog.

The Company will place indefinitely laid off employees in open full-time positions as they become available within the Detroit labor market based on seniority. A Statement from UAW Vice President Norwood Jewell on FCA Announcement about Sterling Heights Assembly: While today's announcement of a shift reduction at Sterling Heights Assembly is unfortunate, it is not unexpected.

CES 2022 was huge for EVs | Autoblog Podcast #711

Fri, Jan 7 2022

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor, Green, John Beltz Snyder. CES took place this week, and there were some nice electric surprises from automakers, especially General Motors. John has been driving the Ram 1500 Power Wagon, as well as what seems to be its polar opposite, the electric Mini Cooper SE. Greg talks about the differences between the Acura TLX A-Spec long-termer (which is back in the shop) and the Type S loaner that's filling in for it. John's also got some interesting thoughts on leather interiors. Finally, the editors reach into the mailbag and help a repeat customer decide on a suitable replacement for a 2008 Lexus GX 470 in this week's Spend My Money segment.
