Read, understand and agree to full description, photos and all terms before placing bid. Have all funds in order and be ready to complete the transaction as per the terms payment methods and deadlines if you are the winning bidder. Thank you Where to start, I would love to keep this amazing piece of automotive history but I simply no longer have the space and storage. This 1952 Chrysler New Yorker is a two owner car. I have the ORIGINAL 1952 Title and the original 1952 license plate which came with the car. This automobile has been garaged its entire life. It has never been out in the rain, or any kind of weather, It was stored inside a garage with a wooden floor its entire life. Dry and protected from the elements. The car is almost completely original and untouched, the way it came out of the showroom floor 62 years ago. Take a look at the photos they tell the car as it is. The 331 Chrysler Hemi runs absolutely amazing. Starts right up, runs whisper quiet. No smoke, no leaks. The fluid drive transmission operates flawlessly It of course has had a minimal going over to make it road safe. It has New Brakes and wheel cylinders all the way around as well as a new master cylinder. It has a brand new Water Pump, the starter and generator were gone over and freshened up and it has a newer NAPA battery Everything else is original, including the hoses and belts. Tires are old poly glass bias tires. I am shocked that they are not dry rotted but I would strongly suggest they be replaced with a vintage reproduction tire if the car is going to be driven any distance to shows or cruises. The interior is in one word INCREDIBLE! It is basically flawless, the way it looked in 1952 and completely original. I found one hairline crack in the passenger side front arm rest. Very small and almost not even visible but I mention what I see. How this was kept in this condition is amazing. The original carpets are like new, seats, door panels etc. The exterior paint is about the same way, it is smooth and has a nice lustre. Now it is 62 years old so it is not like the paints of today. It is the paint they used in 1952. There is no rust or rot on this car at all. The rear fenders have some very small blisters under the paint, I have seen this on other 50's mopars, if you pick them off, the metal is bare underneath, not rusty. Again, this is not something noticeable but mentionable. Personally I would not bother having them redone, as it would take away from the total originality of this vehicle. Paint wise, one other spot to mention is I noticed a small touch up spot above the right rear fender which would have had to have been done long long ago. Possibly even when it was new. The chrome on the car ranges from beautiful to presentable. Most of the die cast is very nice. The hood ornament and hood and trunk 'V" are beautiful. The fender spears have some pitting, as well as some very very small pitting on the door handles. The stainless work is perfect. The bumpers are as Mopar made them back then, a commercial non brilliant chrome. They do show aging but present themselves as they were produced in the proper authentic chroming that was done to Chrysler bumpers back then. Everything works on the car with possibly the clock, I am not sure if the former owner pulled the fuse as most did cause they were electric and ran the battery down over time. Radio works, as do all lights and heater although again, the hoses should be replaced to that, they are 62 years old. Take a good look at the photos, feel free to ask questions as I may have missed something important to you and PLEASE FOLLOW ALL TERMS AND PAYMENT DEADLINES IF BIDDING and PLEASE!! NO TIRE KICKERS! I want this car to go to a proper home where it can be preserved the way it is or improved. If you are not serious enough to commit to a car of this quality, please look elsewhere. Thank You!

Fiat Chrysler quietly sends Pentastar logo out to pasture
Wed, 05 Nov 2014Logos come and go, and in the case of the famed Chrysler Pentastar, it's on its way back out. The well-known five-sided emblem, which sits prominently atop the massive Chrysler Technical Center complex in Auburn Hills, MI, is officially going to be phased out now that the company has united with Fiat and formed the new Fiat Chrysler Automobiles.
As a nearly 50-year-old icon, though, the fate of the Pentastar has been deeply intertwined with Chrysler's history. Hemmings has an excellent recap of that history, from its development in 1962 by a Chrysler ad agency through to its temporary discontinuation during the disastrous marriage between the American company and Daimler-Benz, and then on to its revival during the time the automaker regained its independence.
If you've been a fan of Chrysler and its brands over the years, you're going to want to give this piece a read. Head over and take a look.
FCA and UAW deal could mean huge production shakeups
Thu, Sep 17 2015The big labor contract between Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and the United Auto Workers is likely to lead to some very serious production shakeups across the company's North American manufacturing operations. That's according to a new report from Automotive News, which details the sweeping changes at no fewer than five production facilities in Michigan, Illinois, Ohio, Mexico, and Poland. So without further ado, here's what's going where, presented in easy to digest bullet form. Ram 1500 production would move from Warren, MI to Sterling Heights, MI Warren, MI would be retooled for unibody production and would handle the Jeep Grand Wagoneer and could potentially build Grand Cherokees to ease the strain on Detroit's Jefferson North factory Chrysler 200 production would move from Sterling Heights, MI to Toluca, Mexico Dodge Dart production would move from Belvidere, IL to Toluca, Mexic Fiat 500 production, which is currently handled by Toluca, would be concentrated in Poland, where the Euro-spec Cinquecento is built Jeep Cherokee production would move from Toledo, OH to Belvidere, IL to make room for Wrangler and Wrangler Pickup production Like we said, those are some big changes. But, as FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne said in an earlier interview with Automotive News, this kind of shakeup would make a lot of sense. In that August interview the exec said that automakers moved truck production to Mexico because they were "threatened" by the UAW. "The only thing [the UAW] want is to move the truck back. Which is right. If you move the truck back here, which is [the UAW's] domain, [and move] all the cars that we get killed on somewhere else, we could actually make sense of this bloody industry and actually increase the number of people employed in this country and really share wealth because we are making money," Marchionne told AN.

Fiat board makes Chrysler merger official, approves $5.4B bond sale
Mon, 16 Jun 2014Fiat's board of directors has officially approved the merger plan that will see the conglomerate's automotive operations merged with Chrysler into the new Fiat Chrysler Automobiles.
The plan essentially provides a road map for the structure of the new company. It includes provisions for Fiat shareholders - one Fiat share will translate to one share of FCA common stock. The new company will also include a loyalty voting structure, which will provide for shareholders of Fiat stock or those that have held FCA stock for at least three years. According to the plan, these shareholders would see their voting power double, with two votes for every share of FCA's common stock. The overall merger plan still needs to be approved by the company's shareholders.
In other Fiat-related news, the company's board has announced a bond issuance of four billion euro ($5.4 billion). The new bonds should provide the company with a degree of flexibility in refinancing debts associated with the merger plan.
