1986 Chrysler Lebaron Convertible on 2040-cars
Clinton, Illinois, United States
Here is my 86 convertible. It has new tires about 2500 miles on them. It runs good could maybe use a tune up. I have been driving to work daily 100 miles round trip so mileage may change. The a/c needs to be charged I took the belt off because it tries to run and makes a whining sound. The radiator, belts, hoses, thermostat, water pump, and alternator have been changed. I also changed the drivers side power window motor. The small back windows would not move both tracks which are made of plastic have broken I also replaced both of those they work like new. The shocks in the rear, brakes front and rear, along with the drums and rotors. Also replaced the shocks for the trunk. This car was my grandpa hate to sell but have to. The cruise, power locks, windows, heater and radio all work. The wipers stopped working and had to replace the bushings from the motor to the wiper arm assembly a few weeks ago. The power seat on drivers side works but something is loose under seat moves some when you sit down. The seats are in ok condition a few cracks on drivers side. The arm rest is a little faded where it says mark cross. The air vent outlet on passenger side is broken also where the sun visors mount in the center the piece is broken off it is a full piece that runs along the top of window inside. The paint is ok there is a few dents and scratches not to bad also one of the center caps of the hub caps is missing. The trunk has some white spots in the paint not sure what that is. The top has a small hole in it and just this year the back window has started to peel at bottom I took a picture of. The top goes up and down as it should. Also the dash works but in the sunlight you can't see like it is on dim? Not sure what the problem is i think the dimmer switch is fine I have a Garmin I use when I can't see the dash. Any other questions just ask would like to see it go to a good home.

Ford tumbles to second worst in Consumer Reports reliability survey, list dominated by Japanese [w/video]
Mon, 29 Oct 2012It's no secret that MyFord Touch has had its share of problems since being introduced, but the most recent reliability survey from Consumer Reports shows just how much this infotainment system has affected Ford. Just two years ago, the automaker was in the top 10 for the institute's reliability rankings, but since then, it has tumbled to the second-lowest rung just above dead-last Jaguar. In addition to MyFord Touch, CR also attributes a handful of new products that have had issues right out of the gate.
Compiled from 1.2 million subscriber surveys, this year's auto reliability survey heavily favors Japanese automakers, with eight of the 10 spots hailing from Japan. Toyota brands grabbed the top three spots (Scion, Toyota and Lexus - in that order) with Mazda, Subaru, Honda and Acura filling the next four spots. The only non-Asian automaker cracking the top 10 was Audi at number eight.
Audi climbed a total of 18 spots from last year, and Cadillac and GMC round out this year's top gainers breaking into the top 15. Helping Cadillac's upward movement, the CTS Coupe was named the most reliable domestic car. Lincoln, Volvo and Chrysler join Ford on this year's biggest loser list.
NYT profiles Blue Nelson, a reclusive and interesting CA car collector
Thu, 25 Sep 2014If it weren't for his Dale Earnhardt Sr. looks, Blue Nelson could be one one of those soft-spoken, nondescript guys whom you meet briefly and never learn much more about. However, as The New York Times shows in a recent profile and video, behind closed doors, Nelson keeps a fascinatingly eclectic collection of automotive oddities and vintage bicycles.
While his main career is in the movie industry, Nelson's other job is as a car hunter. He takes on clients searching for a specific model and helps them find and restore the dream vehicle that they're after. Hiring him takes some dedication, though, because Nelson doesn't advertise his services. "If people want to find me, they know how to find me," he says in the video.
Beyond being an automotive private detective, Nelson has a fantastically varied collection of vehicles of his own. He likes to have models that people don't usually see, and his garage holds a classic Chrysler New Yorker and an extremely rare Rometsch convertible. Although, the one that means the most to him is the 1962 Porsche 356 convertible that Blue came home in as a baby. Check out the video to learn more about Nelson and his philosophy about forming a bond with a car.
Marchionne urges industry consolidation, again
Fri, May 29 2015Sergio Marchionne isn't just an instigator of mergers – he's also a staunch advocate for their need in the industry. And he seems convinced another big one will happen in the next few years. "I am absolutely certain that before 2018 there will be a merger," said Marchionne. "It's my personal opinion, based on a gut feeling." Though the terms "absolutely certain" and "gut feeling" would seem to convey vastly different degrees of certainty, his chief's statement would seem to suggest some inside knowledge of an impending deal. Marchionne, of course, brokered the consolidation of the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles empire over which he now presides, and has been actively seeking another merger to help reduce redundancy and overhead between major automakers in the industry. With which automaker he might be seeking such a merger, however, remains a big question. He was recently reported to have approached Mary Barra regarding a potential merger with General Motors, but was said to have been rebuffed. The Italian-Canadian executive may not be alone in his advocacy for industry consolidation, though. Opel chief Karl-Thomas Neumann said that "In principle, Marchionne is right – the auto industry develops the same things ten times over." Bringing major automakers together would ostensibly reduce that redundancy. Marchionne had been linked to a potential takeover of Opel when GM was shedding brands post-bankruptcy, but in the end the Detroit giant opted to keep its European division in-house.
