1952 Chrysler Imperial 2-door hardtop in Superior Blue.  Originally with Yuma Gray top, as can be seen on the inside of the pillar.  Very rare, one of 3450 Imperial hardtops made in 1951/1952.  (Chrysler didn't break out the production figures for each year.)  Not many left now.  331 hemi V-8, Fluid-Torque semi-automatic with optional torque convertor (as opposed to the standard fluid coupling).   Original and unrestored condition.  Colorado car with solid body and trunk.  The odometer is reading just under 30,000 miles, it probably has flipped over once for actual mileage of 130,000.  The old hemi starts readily and pulls the car easily with little effort.  The transmission shifts with no problems.  Power front windows, wipers, lighting, starting and charging all working as when the car was new.   Only the the radio, clock and fuel sending unit are going to need some attention.  The power steering makes driving the car nearly effortless, and the power assisted brakes pull the car down in vintage fashion.  Both the brake master cylinder and carburetor have recently been rebuilt.  This car will need kingpins.  That and new tires and it can be driven anywhere.  A good rat rod candidate, or restoration project, well worth the effort for this appreciating car.

Included is a copy of the original owner's manual packet.

Seller will need to make a deposit of $500 within 3 days of the auction’s end, the balance to be paid within 7 days of the auction’s end.  Buyer assumes responsibility for shipping.  Of course, local pick up is no problem.

Thanks for looking, and good luck!

Chrysler Airflow concept previews the brand's all-electric future

Wed, Jan 5 2022

For a couple of years now, Chrysler has been teasing an electric concept with the name of Airflow, and now the company has finally revealed a seemingly close-to-production version. Simply called the Chrysler Airflow Concept, it seems to be a preview of what might be the brand's first all-electric car, due by 2025. Compared to a number of recent electric cars, the Airflow looks rather conservative, but not unattractive. The nose very modest grilles, with the upper one bearing an illuminated Chrysler wing badge. There's hardly a sharp crease on the rounded, organic body. The wheel arches are emphasized with taller, wider metal over the fenders. The roof has a trendy contrasting paint, and the rear has a wide and thin taillight bar. Inside, the Airflow has a similarly soft and rounded aesthetic. Light leather is found on the doors, dash and seats. Most of the dash consists of screens, too. There's a center screen for driver infotainment, with instrument screen and screens for climate control on either side. The rear seats get screens, too. But they all look feasible, especially considering the raft of displays in the Jeep Grand Wagoneer. Among some of the high-tech features are the ability for each passenger to customize their screens, and information can be sent to other passengers' screens at will. Each passenger position has a camera for video calling, too. Chrysler was light on mechanical details. All the company said was that it features two 201-horsepower electric motors, one at the front, the other at the rear for all-wheel drive. Exact battery capacity wasn't given, but Chrysler says range should be between 350 and 400 miles. Additionally, the car supposedly features SAE Level 3 semi-autonomous driver assist under the name STLA AutoDrive. Chrysler hasn't explicitly said the Airflow is coming to production, but this concept looks like it's almost ready for market. The brand also said that its first EV is coming before 2025, a step towards going fully electric by 2028. Related video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Chrysler 200 prototype spied for first time with new body

Tue, 17 Sep 2013

Chrysler is deep into testing for its next-generation 200 sedan, a new model that is utterly essential to the brand's continued health. The next iteration is tasked with wiping away anything reminiscent of the Sebring, which the current 200 is still based on. According to our spy, this is one of the first of the new 200s to wear a production body rather than the Alfa Romeo Giulietta-based mules that are thick on the ground in Auburn Hills.
Immediately apparent is that the new 200 ditches the awkwardly styled C-pillar that's typified four-door 200 sedans (and Sebrings before them) for years. The new, sleeker roofline is almost more of a four-door coupe than a traditional sedan, which hints that this new car will try to be more fashion-forward than its predecessor. The rear deck is set off by a sporty decklid spoiler, while a set of staggered rectangular exhaust pipes poke out of the bumper.
The front end appears sleeker, and we'd be lying if we didn't spy a bit of Dart through the camouflage, particularly with the headlights. A large, gaping lower air intake is visible, although our spy seems to think it'll shrink before production models debut. Whatever the new 200 ends up looking like, we expect to see a lot more of its styling from Chrysler in the coming years.
