For sale, 1967 Chrylser Newport from the dry high desert. Just purchased from the original owner with docs including ownercard, warranty and original sales order from Wilson Motors in Butte, MT with a purchase price of $4,141 and all maintenance records. Title is the original issued in 1967. Found the original build sheets (2) under back seat in readable condition. Owner was a fussy engineer and car was mechanically very well maintained. Exterior weathered from outside storage and now it's wearing some great patina. Super solid foundation for a restoration or drive as for great entry level muscle classic - you won't find any better in this price range.  I'll do my best to describe this neat time capsule find below:

Exterior: Paint is original and weathered as shown. No cancer or rot, only minor surface rust. There is no salt used on the roads here in the land of the prickly pear cactus and sagebrush, and we only get 10 inches of total precipitation per year. Basically, every where there was a paint chip low on the car there is now surface rust spots. I've done some bodywork, and when you sand it for repaint, if you sprayed some neutralizer on it you'd be good to go. There's a lot of small specks but only a couple of noticeable spots, one above skirt on each side and one area on trunk deck.(shown) I had the car on a hoist, and there is no rot underneath and I don't see any areas of concern whatsoever - and I know where to look. We just don't see major rust issues here. The skirts were repainted as the originals were lost and a set of maroon ones were sourced and subsequently repainted. Trunk floor has only minor surface rust as shown. Glass is good except windshield, which is cracked as shown. Bumpers are dull and need rechromed. Exterior brightwork is good, only pitting I can see is on tail light bezels. There is a crease on the right front fender and door as shown, and the front fender chrome there is dinged.

Interior: All original. Headliner good, no major issues with door panels or carpet. Seats have splits as shown, with top of rear seat pretty baked. Dash has a few small cracks as shown. Driver armrest has a tear, and minor pitting on interior handles. Seat upholstery is inexpensive for these cars and that alone would bring the car right up to cruise night status. Everything on this car seems to work except radio, right down to all the little inside lights and trunk light. No rodent damage or smells. I've been driving it and even as is it gets compliments.

Mechanical: Here's the great part - mechanically she's up to snuff. Very well maintained, and 10 years ago the original owner took the car to the local Dodge dealership and had everything done the car needed - $2,000 in receipts. It's only had maintenance miles since then. Brakes (including master cylinder) were done, carb, radiator, front timing chain and seal, shocks, alternator, regulator, etc etc. Jump in and go, it's ready. Tires show good tread and no weather cracking but not sure how old they are. Nice throaty dual exhaust with new tail pipes. Original 383 provides grunt and moves this big car with muscle. Trans shifts great. No weird noises whatsoever. Starts, runs, stops, and drives out smooth. Underhood is neat and clean as can be. A few small leaks, nothing major. The fuel was never soured, and I wouldn't hesitate to drive the car as is. Driver window is a bit sloppy, thinking it needs felt runners replaced. Passenger window works great, rear windows are sticky and I didn't force them. This car is original and complete right down to the original jack and hardware still in the trunk.

Pricing/Misc: I got a good deal on this car and you will too. I see this era C body bringing stupid money when they are clean, especially from rust belt bidders. I guess it  must cost much more to fix  cancer and rot than to pay a few hundred bucks to ship a dry rig from the high desert. This car is a solid driveable project car, and it's priced accordingly. It seems that most of these cars for sale are either thrashed to death, or priced in the stratosphere. Reserve price is WAY under $2k for quick sale - great price on a classic 60's big block 2 door hardtop that you can jump in and drive today. Title is clear and open, signed off by original owner and ready to fill your name in as purchaser. There is a lien showing from 1967, but it's been long since paid and I called the DMV and they show no liens and I have a DMV form stating that. GOOD LUCK! Keep in mind that with all cars, THEY LOOK BETTER IN PICTURES THAN IN PERSON.  Keywords Mopar Chrysler 300 New Yorker Dodge Plymouth Mopar Polara Belvedere Roadrunner Charger Coronet Sport Fury Barracuda Challenger 440 400 426 340 Desoto Hemi ram wedge B RB magnum Satellite GTX

Marchionne open to combination with Ford or GM

Fri, Mar 13 2015

At the depths of the auto industry implosion, there was widely reported talk that General Motors and Chrysler would be merged into a mighty import-beating behemoth. While such notions clearly never materialized, that doesn't mean the idea is dead. In fact, FCA boss Sergio Marchionne still welcomes the idea of a partnership with either GM or Ford. He responded positively to the idea, calling it "technically feasible," when asked about it at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show, Automotive News reports. "There's bantering that goes on all the time," Marchionne told AN, before quashing suspicions that a plan was in the works by adding that "nothing substantive" was going on. Our favorite black sweater enthusiast isn't quite as interested in the idea of teaming with a foreign manufacturer like PSA Peugeot Citroen, or in the rumored tie-up with Volkswagen, though. That is a shame, particularly in regards to Marchionne's shut down of a partnership with the French, although it isn't necessarily surprising – FCA already consists of eight automakers, and as Sergio told AN, there's really nothing at PSA that could help the company out. What are your thoughts? Is there an obvious project or segment that would benefit from an FCA partnership with Ford or GM? Have your say in Comments.

This 1958 Chrysler Imperial Ultra 7 Pointer 1 is Japan's Batmobile

Sun, 02 Mar 2014

It might be sacrilegious to admit among some auto enthusiasts, but there's more to driving than performance and speed. Sometimes it can be a matter of love, as it is for Yasushi Shiroi, who has spent the last 21 years building a faithful replica of a car from a '60s Japanese sci-fi show.
Shiroi's car is the star of the latest video from The Aficionauto and it's truly a labor of love. This machine, which is sort of like a Japanese Batmobile, is based on a 1958 Chrysler Imperial and is designed to recreate a car called the Pointer 1 from the series Ultra 7. The latter was apparently hugely popular when it ran in Japan in 1967 and 1968, and told the story a seven-member team that fought off aliens attacking Earth. While the car in the series never actually ran, Shiroi wanted one that would.
The Pointer 1 has been in constant development since Shiroi has owned it. All of the body modifications have been done in steel, but mechanically, it remains something of a mess. This replica might be slow - and to many people, ugly - but it has brought its owner about as much happiness as a car can, and that's something worth celebrating. Scroll down to check it out.

Fiat Chrysler wins top Total Quality Award for first time

Mon, Jul 20 2015

The Strategic Vision Total Quality Awards are 20 years old in 2015, and Chrysler has never topped the awards before. Until now, that is. Fiat Chrysler takes the overall award on the corporate level with six segment leaders from Fiat, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram. The Fiat 500 won Small Multi-Function Car, the 500e won Small Alternative Powertrain, the Dodge Challenger tied at the top in the Specialty Coupe category alongside the very un-coupe Mini Cooper Countryman, the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited took the Entry SUV category, the Dodge Durango won in Mid-Size SUV, and Ram took the overall in Best Non-Luxury Brand. The accolade means FCA has gone from one segment winner in 2010 to overall victory in five years. Cars have gotten so good, says Strategic Vision, that it is harder than ever to win. In fact, says the group, 18 years ago 85 percent of all vehicle brands had more than half a problem per vehicle. This year, no brand has more than half a problem per vehicle. The organization measures "over 155 specific aspects of the customer's experience," and scores are based on input from more than 46,000 customers. Other notables in and near the winner's circle include Volkswagen and General Motors, who tied for second place on the corporate scale, one point behind FCA. The Mini Cooper Roadster scored the highest of any model, the Corvette Stingray Convertible and Coupe scored the second- and third-highest. The Chevrolet Colorado is the first domestic Standard Pickup winner in more than ten years, and the Nissan Titan carried the Full-Size Pickup category. The press release below has all the details on how winners and losers are selected, and the full list of automakers and how they finished. "The Customer's 'Total' Experience Defines Quality, Fiat Chrysler Scores Highest in Total Quality," says Strategic Vision The 2015 Total Quality Awards® SAN DIEGO, Friday, July 17, 2015 — Unknown to many, when some consumer research firms rank a car company's quality performance they often do so by simply "counting problems." In the past, this may have been acceptable, but in today's modern and efficient manufacturing world the difference between the worst brand and best brand is LESS than half-a-problem per vehicle. Thus, any "quality ranking" based on this method is severely lacking in the complete picture of the "Total" Quality experience that customers actually use to judge their product ownership.
