1978 Chrysler Newport Coupe ****40,000 Actual Miles***** on 2040-cars
Omaha, Nebraska, United States
|
A TRUE time capsule, a survivor with just over 40,000 actual miles. Recently purchased from an estate this is probably the nicest original 36 year old car you'll find...anywhere!! LOOK CLOSE AT THE PICTURES AND REMEMBER THIS CAR HAS HAD ABSOLUTELY NO RESTORATION...EVER!! It wears it's original paint, interior and drive train. The spare tire was installed by Chrysler Corporation in 1978 and it's NEVER been on the ground!! And of course never any rust...ever!!
Mechanically the car runs and drives great!! I just drove the car 125 miles on the interstate at 75 mph. The cruise works perfectly and it's just a great driving and running car. For those of us my age, we remember how cra**y Chrysler's Lean Burn System cars ran. They didn't work very well when they were new. Well...this one is the exception to the Lean Burn rule!! It starts right up, no chugging and choking. And it doesn't "stumble" as you accelerate. It's impressive how it runs. Quiet and smooth. The four barrel carb kicks right down and has decent power for such a big car. The factory AC is ice cold still on R12 refrigerant. Brakes and shocks work as they should. The tires are excellent. Options..there are many: 400 4-barrel, power steering, brakes and power driver seat. Cruise control and tilt steering with telescoping wheel. Cornering lights, fender skirts, am-fm radio. Front split bench seat with dual arm rests. Light package. Even rare for the time "delay" windshield wipers too!! Cosmetically there are just a very few flaws. As seen in the pics a few scratches, minor road rash very low behind the rear wheels. The vinyl top has a small area that has "curled" as you can see. The dash pad is perfect, the glas is original and very nice. The headliner is drooping. It's being sold this way but there's a possibility I can have it replaced by auction ends..WATCH FOR UPDATES regarding I will post. Summing it up: This car is ready for summer cruise nights and local car shows. It's a great classic piece of American iron at it's best from the company that was called Chrysler Corporation!! The reserve is low...very low to enable anyone that wants a nice LOW MILEAGE classic car to own it. I NEED TO PUT THE CAP BUTTON ON...DO NOT BID ON THIS CAR UNLESS YOU HAVE THE MEANS AND INTENTIONS TO BUY IT!! Have your financial affairs in order and permission from your spouse, partner or signifigant other PRIOR to bidding. ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING. My phone is with me 24/7 and I'll answer your questions honestly and openly. Fly in drive the car home in total comfort, I can pick you up at the airport. Shipping is the buyers responsibility. The car is stored in a secure building. Winning bidder to send a $500 non-refundable deposit via Paypal 48 hours end of auction. Balance to be paid within 7-days via bank to bank wire transfer, certified bank funds or cash when picked up. Remember...call me anytime with any questions Tom 402-650-3849 |

Chrysler extends fuel tank warranties on LX cars, NHTSA ends probe
Tue, 18 Feb 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has ended its investigation of 153,817, 5.7-liter and 6.1-liter Hemi V8-powered 2006 Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum models after reports of stalling. Chrysler has responded by granting a lifetime warranty on the fuel tanks for these vehicles.
NHTSA received 299 reports of engines stalling while the models were stopped or driving at low speeds, and began an investigation. The government agency found that the control valve shutoff float in the V8s' 19-gallon fuel tank could malfunction if the fuel had too high of an ethanol content. In many cases, the valve would break in the open position, allowing the tank to be overfilled, which would then cause the cars to stall. However, there were no accidents reported, and the vehicles could be restarted immediately.
There will not be a recall on these vehicles because, "the condition represents a low risk to motor vehicle safety and is adequately addressed by Chrysler's extended warranty," NHTSA said to The Detroit News.
Small number of 2013 Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger models recalled
Sun, 24 Feb 2013A small number of units of the 2013 Chrysler 200 (inset) and 2013 Dodge Avenger are being recalled over a broken control valve in the fuel tank assembly. The potential 1,785 sedans were manufactured late last year, and if affected with a broken control valve could suffer from stalling or fuel leakage.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notes that the recall should begin next month, at which time owners can take their cars to dealers for repair free of charge. The full release with more information is just below.
FCA discussing tech partnership with Hyundai, but no merger
Sun, Dec 3 2017Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is in talks with South Korea's Hyundai about a technical partnership, but there are no merger talks between the two, FCA Chief Executive Sergio Marchionne said on Saturday. FCA is often the subject of merger speculation, especially after its unsuccessful 2015 attempt to tie up with larger U.S. rival GM. Its share price jumped to record highs in August after reports of interest from China and Hyundai. "We already buy components from (Hyundai) .... let's see if we can agree on other points, especially for the development of transmissions and hydrogen," Marchionne told journalists, adding there was "nothing to announce for the moment". Asked whether this collaboration could turn into a merger, Marchionne said: "I don't believe so".
