1991 Chrysler Imperial Base Sedan 4-door 3.3l on 2040-cars
Houston, Texas, United States
|
I bought this car in February of 2009 from a lady at a retirement apartment complex where I was helping a friend. I saw the car there for many years, not moving but once a year or so. The owner knew something was wrong with it, but couldn't remember what it was called. I found out the word was "transmission"! When I bought the car, the transmission had a problem so I had it professionally rebuilt for more than $2000.00. I had the cracked windshield replaced, rebuilt the alternator, new battery, radiator rebuilt, A/C drier and gaskets replaced, Converted to R-134a refrigerant, new front brake pads and rotors and front struts, and new Cooper white wall tires. The rear struts need to be replaced, but I have not been able to find any. The A/C is cold and radio and power antenna work. All windows and locks appear to be working. The cruise control is not working and is one item I have not gotten to checking out. I had the vinyl top repainted and front bumper fillers replaced and repainted. This led to me having the hood and front panels repainted due to rock chips and one or two panels on the rear repainted and the pinstripes re-done at a cost of around $860.00. A sudden downpour led me to run in the garage with a ladder and I bumped the top left of the trunk and scratched the paint. It could probably be corrected with touch up paint. I originally bought the car to pair with my 1974 Imperial in a car show with a "Back to the Future" theme, but the brake caliper froze up on the 1974 the day of the show, so it wasn't meant to be. Since I have owned the car, I used it to go to car club meetings and events, and sometimes not used it for a couple of months at a time. The mileage that the car shows was put on early in the cars life as I have not put many miles on it since I have owned it and it was not driven for about 3+ years just before I owned it. I need to get rid of some of my cars as I do not have enough storage space for them all. Nine is a bit much to take care of. I'm also selling a 1974 Imperial, a 1976 Fleetwood, and a 2004 Volvo V70. |

Pickup prices rising at 2x industry average
Tue, 11 Jun 2013We've said it before, but bears repeating: Pickup trucks are the financial engines of America's automakers. Good thing, then, that the segment is in rude health - in fact, Automotive News is suggesting that pickup truck sales are arguably healthier than they were pre-recession, even though the segment's volume is still significantly down from where it was before the bottom fell out of the US economy. That's because per-unit profits on full-size trucks are skyrocketing, outpacing the industry's average price increases by more than double since 2005. According to data from Edmunds, the average transaction price of a full-size pickup is now $39,915 - a heady increase over the $31,059 average price in 2005 - a gain of over 8 percent after inflation is factored in.
Just how important are trucks to automakers' bottom lines? Automotive News quotes a Morgan Stanley analyst as saying the Ford F-Series is responsible for 90 percent of the company's 2012 profits, and General Motors isn't far behind, with the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra twins chipping in about two-thirds of the automaker's earnings.
Automotive News points out that Detroit's automakers now have the money to invest in modernizing their full-size truck offerings, in part because they don't have the same overhead and legacy costs that pushed General Motors and Chrysler into bankruptcy. Certainly, the pickup segment has seen a lot of innovations as of late, including turbocharged V6s, coil-spring rear suspensions and active aero. Those improvements in important areas like fuel economy and ride comfort have given existing pickup buyers new reasons to upgrade. In addition, automakers are piling on the tech and luxury goodies, creating more and more high-content, high-profit models like the Ford F-150 King Ranch, Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn and Chevrolet Silverado High Country (shown).

"The 2014 Ram Power Wagon fills a need for those who travel into extreme terrain for rescue or recreation." - Reid Bigland
More, more, more. That's the philosophy behind the latest Ram Power Wagon. The extra-brawny, Ram 2500-based pickup is back for 2014, and naturally, it's even more extreme than its predecessor.
Chrysler purchases remaining shares from VEBA Trust, announces funding plan
Thu, 23 Jan 2014It's official: The Detroit Three is now The Detroit Two and The Fiat Subsidiary, Chrysler. Both the Italian carmaker and The Pentastar announced the completion of cash payments and a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on future payments necessary to make the Chrysler Group a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fiat. As previously detailed, Chrysler made a cash payment of $1.9 billion and Fiat North America made a cash payment of $1.75 billion to the Voluntary Employment Benefit Association (VEBA) run by the United Auto Workers union.
On top of that, Chrysler Group signed an MOU that agrees to payments of $700 million to the VEBA in four installments, the first of which was made concurrently with the other cash payments. And for you trivia mavens, the full name of the UAW is the International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America. So go impress your loved ones with that nugget after you check out the press release below.
