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!

Ford tops GM in US vehicle sales in May, driven by fleets
Thu, Jun 1 2017DETROIT - Ford, bolstered by heavy sales to fleet customers, surpassed General Motors in US new vehicle sales in May, according to figures reported Thursday. Ford said May sales rose 2.2 percent from a year ago to 241,126 units. GM sales dropped 1.3 percent to 237,364. GM said it had been trimming sales of heavily discounted vehicles to car rental companies. Such fleet sales made up about 19 percent of its total sales in May. Ford's fleet sales rose 8.4 percent, representing more than 34 percent of total sales. The industry average is around 20 percent. Analysts had expected mixed results for the industry, with sales likely propped up by heavy discounts. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles said May sales dipped 0.9 percent to 193,040. Toyota's US sales dropped 0.5 percent to 218,248. Nissan said US sales in May rose 3.0 percent, to 137,471. After demand fell in March and April, analysts estimated May sales at just over 1.5 million. The seasonally adjusted annual rate of sales in May was estimated at 16.8 million to 16.9 million vehicles, about the same as April. A year earlier, sales stood at 17.55 million vehicles. Early reports indicated that sales over the three-day Memorial Day weekend were helped by heavy discounts. "While demand for new vehicles is still relatively strong, it's a bit of smoke and mirrors," said Jessica Caldwell, executive director of industry analysis at Edmunds, the car shopping website. Manufacturers and dealers "really pushed the deals over the holiday weekend to prop up their May numbers," she said. "Incentives were up sharply, and it seems automakers are putting more cash on the hood to nudge car shoppers to buy versus lease." General Motors dealers were offering discounts of up to $12,000 on the full-size Chevrolet Silverado pickup, while some dealer discounts on Ford Motor Co's F-series pickups were more than $10,000 on 2017 models and more than $14,000 on leftover 2016 models. The 2017 model year started eight months ago. Reporting by Paul LienertRelated Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

SRT reveals Satin Vapor Edition 300, Charger and Challenger SRT models
Fri, 07 Feb 2014With the exception of some notable truck and van introductions, Chrysler brands have tended to use the Chicago Auto Show to bring out new special editions, pimp their aftermarket parts support or indulge in the occasional flight of fancy. That plan is holding true for 2014, as well. Cases in point are these new Satin Vapor Editions of the 2014-model-year Dodge Challenger, Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300 - all from SRT.
The Satin Vapor name may sound like a failed 1970s glam-rock band, or a pseudo-gynecological diagnosis from the Old West, but is, in fact, pretty much a tape-and-trim package for this trio of hi-po Mopars. 300, Challenger and Charger alike come shod with 20-inch aluminum wheels finished in Black Satin Vapor Chrome, and are accented with Satin Black bits aplenty. The 300 gets blacked-out mirrors, spoiler and roof; the Challenger applies it to mirrors and its fuel door; while the Charger has the stuff covering its roof, hood and Super Bee tail graphic.
Interiors of the cars have been mildly updated as well, with all three getting some combination of Nappa leather, ultra-suede and carbon-fiberish finishes.
