Rare, Fully Loaded 1962 Chrysler Imperial Crown Imperial Crown, 66k, 413 V8. Options include a/c, power windows, power seats, power steering and power brakes. I bought the Imperial from the son of a Mopar collector, it was in his family since the 70's. The previous owner claimed the 66k on the odometer is original, my mechanic thinks so as well. I'm looking for someone to keep going where I have to stop due to finances (or lack!). The Imperial is one of my all time favorites, it's the wild-style baby of Chrysler designer Virgil Exner. There is simply not another car like it. I've naturally got more into the car than my asking price, I just hope it goes to someone who will bring it the rest of the way. Mechanical: Entire new brake system, including booster, dual chamber master cylinder (I kept the original setup), brake lines, all six wheel cylinders, brake shoes and emergency brake overhaul. If you're familiar with these cars you know how much labor is involved getting all those components installed, adjusted, bled and stopping just right. The fuel system was replaced as well: fuel tank and sending unit, fuel lines, rebuilt carburetor and fuel pump. Complete tuneup as well including new battery and ground cable as well as all new belts. I got all the lights working including the dash lights, directinals and brights. I've been driving it around locally and recently the exhaust has gotten loud, it's one of the pipes coming down off the exhaust manifold to the bottom of the car. The exhaust system is solid otherwise, newer muffler and tailpipe. The pushbutton transmission has gotten intermittent as well, you need to shift back and forth from neutral to drive a few times to engage the tranny. From what I've read the solenoid that moves the gear selector gets worn and sloppy. The heater works, the a/c compressor turns on but doesn't blow cold and the radio works intermittently. The passenger side power window works, the others don't; I don't know if it's the switch or motors. The power seat does not work, the wipers and horn work. The tires are new as well. The engine starts easily even after sitting for weeks and the garage floor is always dry when I pull the car out. No noises from engine, power steering works perfectly, the 413 V8 is surprisingly quiet and smooth. Cosmetic: I haven't done anything to make the car look better in the photos; once I made the decision earlier today I pulled the car out of the garage in the rain and took quick shots with my phone! I didn't even reinstall the rear window chrome trim for the photos, it's in the trunk. I haven't done anything cosmetically, just removed the old carpet and was glad to see the floors are all solid. I have matched color loop style carpet I can include. The seats are good, one small opening of about two inches at the bottom of the driver's seat, otherwise just some fading at the tops of the seats. The front and rear center armrests are good as well as the headliner and visors. The front door panels are better than the rear but they're all complete, they're fraying at the edges. The rear deck material is dry and faded. The dash, dash display and steering wheel are near perfect. The glass is very nice all around including the windshield, no scratches or discoloration. The front bumper is good as well as the grill, the separate bumper extensions under the front corners of the fenders are peeling and the rear bumper is peeling in spots. Some small areas of corrosion down the bottom under the doors, nothing too bad, the worst is forward of the driver's side rear wheel well as seen in the pix. All the panels line up straight, doors, hood and trunk and the doors close easily. The body and undercarriage are solid overall, floors and frame good. The car has never been repainted or had any body repair. The title is in my name; you can probably tell I had big plans for the Imperial! I reserve the right to end the auction early as the Imperial is for sale locally and I'm open to reasonable buy it now offers as well. I can assist with shipping in the USA or internationally if necessary, cost of shipping to paid by buyer. I can recommend a door to door auto shipper I've used in the past; they're professional, reliable and have great rates. Rare classic Mopar which will only appreciate in value!

FCA to recall 318,000 vehicles for faulty backup camera software
Wed, Apr 8 2020An array of 2019 and 2020 FCA vehicles are being recalled over faulty backup camera software that doesn’t meet federal regulations. According to recall documents, the backup camera may not turn off “until a drive cycle ends.” ThatÂ’s far longer than the 10-second linger time allowed by the rules, so FCA has to recall all of the vehicles to implement a fix. WeÂ’ve listed all of the vehicles involved below. 2020 Jeep Gladiator 2020 Jeep Cherokee 2019-2020 Ram 1500 2019-2020 Ram 2500 2019-2020 Ram 3500 2019-2020 Chrysler Pacifica 2019-2020 Dodge Durango 2019-2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee 2019-2020 Jeep Wrangler 2019-2020 Jeep Renegade 2019 Dodge Challenger ItÂ’s an extensive list encompassing a huge chunk of FCAÂ’s lineup in the United States. In total, FCA is recalling 318,537 vehicles. They must be equipped with the 8.4-inch or 12-inch infotainment system for the problem to present itself. FCA expects the recall to start on May 22 this year and will begin to notify owners soon. To fix the vehicles that may be affected, FCA plans to update the infotainment system at the dealer or over-the-air. If youÂ’ve noticed a screen thatÂ’s sluggish to relinquish its hold on the backup camera feed (or maybe never does), then you have this recall to look forward to. Update: FCA has provided additional information about the repair methodology. Customers will be able to receive an update over the air or have their cars updated at the dealership. Customers will begin receiving notifications this month. Related video: Recalls Chrysler Dodge Jeep Crossover Minivan/Van SUV
Future Classic: 1990-2012 Mitsubishi Eclipse
Thu, Jun 22 2023It was meant to be a premiere partnership, pregnant with possibilities: the alliance of a pair of global automotive powerhouses from Japan and America. Eventually the merger gave birth to a trio of highly-regarded sports coupes: the Mitsubishi Eclipse, the Eagle Talon and the Plymouth Laser, cars developed by the company that became Diamond-Star Motors. Although DSM’s beginnings can be traced back to a flirtation in 1970, when Chrysler Corporation took a 15-percent stake in Mitsubishi Motors, the partnership later culminated in a formal pairing in 1985. It was good timing: Chrysler was emerging from near-bankruptcy; the Japanese company just didnÂ’t have anything to please U.S. buyers, and with government-imposed “voluntary” import quotas, its supply lines were broadly restricted. Chrysler, looking to expand its lines, built a plant in Normal, Illinois, but, although Chrysler put up half the $650 million for the facility, it left management to Mitsubishi. And the Japanese facilities provided engines and transmissions. By the end of 1989, production of the Diamond-Star triplets — the Laser, Eclipse and Talon — was in full swing.

The Eclipse, supposedly named for an unbeaten 18th-century English racehorse that won 18 races in a row, was the shining star of the line. Because of its long run in series production, the genealogy of the Eclipse is worth discussing. Initially the car, designed at the Mitsubishi Motors North America Design Studio and introduced in 1990, was available in four trim levels: Eclipse, Eclipse GS, Eclipse GS-T (Turbo) and Eclipse GSX. It evolved first as a two-door coupe, later as a convertible or liftback, with front-wheel or all-wheel drive, and with engine choices including naturally aspirated fours, turbocharged fours and V6 options. One really needs a scorecard to chart the generations: 1st Gen (1990-1994), 2nd Gen (1995-1999), 3rd Gen (2000-2005), and 4th Gen (2006-2012). Before the EclipseÂ…well, was eclipsed, buyers of the third and fourth-gen cars could specify a 3.8L V6 engine as well as a four. This swank 2+2 sports car and its nearly identical cousin, the Eagle Talon TSi, emerged as hot rods for the Nineties, and tuners gave them full props for power.
EIB ups financing for Fiat Chrysler's electric vehicles to $949 million
Sat, Sep 19 2020MILAN — The European Investment Bank (EIB) has increased to almost 800 million euros ($949 million) its funding to Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) to support production of electric and hybrid vehicles, they said in a joint statement. Investments to manufacture battery electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles will be mainly directed at FCA plants located in southern Italy, supporting employment and compliance with the strictest environmental criteria. To improve capacity utilization at FCA's Italian plants, the group has announced a 5 billion euro investment plan for the country through 2021 which envisages the launch of new electric and hybrid models. EIB and FCA had sealed 300 million euros in financing before the summer to fund investments for plug-in hybrid electric vehicle production lines at plants in Melfi, in the southern Basilicata region, and battery electric vehicles at Fiat's historic Turin plant of Mirafiori over the 2019-2021 period. FCA has now finalized a 485 million euro deal with EIB to support both an innovative line of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles at the Pomigliano plant in the southern Campania region as well as R&D activities at FCA laboratories in Turin. The EIB credit line covers 75% of the total value of FCA's investment in the project for the 2020-2023 period. Earnings/Financials Green Plants/Manufacturing Chrysler Fiat
