1964 Imperial Convertible With Factory Ac. "refreshed Original" on 2040-cars
Solana Beach, California, United States
1964 Imperial Crown Covertible. “Refreshed Original” with AC
One of 922 Made.
This is a very nice, stock car that has been “refreshed” with one same-color paint job, new leather in the front seats and all mechanical attention required to make it a comfortable, safe and reliable driver. Front Chrome is gorgeous, rear is ok (but RE-CHROMED BUMPER comes with the car).
THIS CAR HAS NO RUST ON IT NOW, NOR DID IT EVER. NOW in San Diego, it was originally from SPOKANE, WA (DESERT ENVIRONMENT).
This car runs beautifully and is a joy to drive. It is quiet and smooth and does not smoke-FROM ANYWHERE.
The car still has its correct “bubble” windshield (Imperial fans will know what I’m talking about); still has correct skirts on the back of the front seats; still has correct, original top well liner with drains; still has the highly sought after ORIGINAL PARADE BOOTS and center piece; ORIGINAL (but worn) carpet; Original and Near Perfect Door Panels and all interior panels; Original dash top with only two SMALL cracks (again, Imperial folks will recognize this as rare); still has its original Jiffy-Jet; Still has its original Carburetor and Air Cleaner; Still has its correct Fan Clutch and Fan Shroud; Original Jack and spare and they are stowed correctly with spring and wood chock.
Over the past 2 years I have done the following work: 1. Rebuilt original carburetor 2. Replaced all 4 tires 3. Replaced the convertible Top and Rear Window 4. Replaced the Master Cylinder 5. Re-Cored the original Radiator with 4 core 6. Plugs, Points, Condenser, Wires, Cap, Rotor. 7. Replaced Front Brake Shoes 8. Replaced All RUBBER brake Lines 9. Replaced Water Pump 10.Replaced all Belts and Hoses 11. Replaced Heater Valve (Ranco H-16) 12. Rebuilt HVAC Vacuum/Electric switch 13. New Battery 14. Replaced Starter with Rebuilt 15. Replaced Windlace
The car has functioning factory Air Conditioning that has NOT been charged but all switch positions result in proper opening/closing of heat and AC doors and correct actuation of AC Compressor. I noticed that the Receiver/Dryer/ Strainer HAS been replaced with a newer unit so I will assume that at some time in the recent past the AC was working. The Heater is Excellent and neither the heater core nor the heater valve leaks. All 4 Power Windows work, but some are slow. BOTH 4 Way Power Seats work in all directions Passenger Side Recliner works All Interior and Exterior lights work (including Ash tray and Glove Compartment) The rare and original first year AM/FM factory radio plays beautifully on AM and on FM. The ORIGINAL Power Antenna goes all the way up and all the way down-from the switch, as it should. The original and first year Tilt Wheel works as it should. ALL Hood Snubbers and Door Snubbers and Trunk Snubbers and Gas Tank Door snubbers present. DOOR HINGES WITH SPRINGS FUNCTION CORRECTLY.
The car does have a couple of drips – AS THEY ALL DID EVEN WHEN THEY WERE ONLY A COUPLE OF YEARS OLD. (I KNOW, MY FATHER HAD THEM THEN).
This is NOT a perfect car or a SHOW car, but an EXTREMELY NICE car that looks beautiful-even close up (and is) original in appearance and equipment and will take you wherever you point it. Even better, you won’t see yourself coming and going because this is truly one of the rarest cars of the 60’s. NINE HUNDRED TWENTY TWO EVER MADE.
The car is REGISTERED, TITLED and INSURED IN MY NAME. I OWN
IT. Check my Feedback and look at the pictures. |

Dodge shows can-do attitude with grand Can'avan sculpture
Fri, 01 Nov 2013There are lots of ways to celebrate an important birthday, and all of them are well deserved. You can throw a big party, buy yourself something nice, or - if you're the altruistic type - do something for others in need. The latter is how Chrysler has opted to mark the 30th anniversary of its Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country.
Together with hunger-advocacy organization Canstruction, the Chrysler Foundation has built a full-scale replica of the Grand Caravan out of 30,000 food cans in the square at the corner of Yonge and Dundas in Toronto, a ways down the highway from where the real vans are built in Windsor. The sculpture was built over the course of 10 hours by 30 volunteers and was displayed earlier this week.
Now the installation is being taken down, and the cans of food are being donated to the Daily Bread Food Bank, which will assemble them into 2,000 food baskets to be distributed to those in need through its network of 200 food banks across the Canadian metropolis. Check out a neat time-lapse video of the build and the press release below.
Chrysler recalls AWD 300, Charger, Ram 1500 over ZF transmission
Tue, 24 Dec 2013What do the Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Ram 1500 all have in common? Yes, they're all Chrysler products, and two of them are based on the same platform. And we're sure you could find more similarities between them all, but the common trait we're looking at here is that, while they all come standard in rear-drive form, they're also available with all-wheel drive. And it's the transmission in those models that's the subject of the latest recall notice issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The output shaft on the eight-speed automatic transmission supplied by ZF to Chrysler for the AWD versions of the 300, Charger and Ram 1500 is apparently prone to fracture. That in the end could leave the vehicle without power and could, according to the NHTSA investigation, increase the chance of a crash. The vehicle could also roll away if even if left in Park without the handbrake applied.
That's why Chrysler is calling in 4,194 examples of those three models from the 2013 model year. Dealers will be responsible for inspecting the transmissions and, where necessary, replace the entire unit. See the full recall notice below for all the details.
2015 Chrysler 300 looks to recapture its mojo in LA
Wed, 19 Nov 2014Chrysler's 300 sedan has never been a shrinking violet, but it arguably lost a bit of swagger when its second-generation model bowed. There was no way that an evolutionary design could ever upend the automotive establishment the way the original 2005 model did, but even so, something was clearly left on the table when the 2011 model bowed.
You don't have take our word for it - Chrysler knows it, too. Reflecting back upon the second-generation model's styling today, Ralph Gilles, Chrysler's senior vice president of design is refreshingly candid, telling Autoblog, "Our previous generation of leaders didn't understand the car very well, and kind of forced this front end on us." For 2015, Gilles and Co. have worked to recapture some of the 2005 design's lightning in a bottle. In Gilles' words, the brief for the refreshed 2015 model was to "give the car the attitude it deserves... up the attitude, up the presence."
Visually, the new 300 initially appears very similar to the current car, but closer inspection and side-by-side comparisons reveal countless changes, the most noticeable being a much larger front grille (by about 30 percent), redone light fixtures and a 'Mobius-strip' lower fascia that picks up where the new 200 left off. The cabin has been upgraded, too, with a standard seven-inch display in the gauge cluster, the latest UConnect infotainment system and improved material choices.
