Up for sale is a truly beautiful, rather rare, piece of "Art Deco" automotive history! 1950 Chrysler Windsor Royal Club Coupe. This original survivor is in remarkable condition having travelled only 71,300 miles in the last 64 years. The car was driven a conservative 43,000 miles up to 1983 by the original owner. Upon her passing it was passed to her daughter and son inlaw and was given a light face-lift consisting of some mechanical updating and a few paint touch-ups. The car was used for more than 30 years as a Sunday drive and show car staying with the original family. All of its life it has been garaged and pampered. The car has been serviced regularly throughout the years with some oil changes having less than 100 miles driven. The paint is close to 2/3 original with a few blow ins and touch-ups over the years to keep it pristine. The interior is all original with only the slightest of fading with no rips. The seats have always been covered over with plaid matching blankets front and back. The door panels are all original also with only light wear on the drivers door. The carpet is presentable but a recent vacuuming revealed some fraying and a few un-ravels. ( New carpets have been ordered) It has the original rubber floor mats with the "Royal" crown on both as with instrument cluster. The headliner, sun visors and arm-rests are original and in fabulous condition. The rest of the interior is in super condition, also all the chrome, buttons, knobs and handles are all great. The trunk is all original from the jack and tire, right down to the original trunk mat. The paint, as stated, is mostly original with only a few touch-ups. There are a few knicks and light scratches that do not show in the photos, but can be seen at 6-12 inches. The undercarriage is almost factory fresh!! The dealer-applied asphault undercoating is quite dry from so many years in Nevada and California and is easily scraped off. Under the undercoating it is factory paint with no rust!! Truly remarkable!! The Chrome is the real tell-tale of pride of ownership. The chrome is nearly flawless and is super bright and shiney. The rear bumper was rechromed 20+ years ago for the usual exhaust discoloration and oxidization. It still looks great! All of the factory options work! Radio was overhauled in the 80's and all new tubes put in. It sounds fabulous! All gauges work perfectly and are super accurate. The interior chrome is stunning. The 2-speed electric wipers work great and park when turned off. The steering wheel has a dozen or so hairline cracks in the acryllic. The rad and heater core were replaced a few years ago as were belts and hoses. The 3 speed dual fans blow hard and hot when required. The brake system was overhauled 2 years ago also as was the fluid-drive transmission. It is a true Timex. Last summer it drove over 5000 miles on a 3 week family trip at 70 mph. This past month we drove it 2000 miles on another... 500+ miles were in torrential rains with no issues. Tires are only a few years old and in great shape. The car still has its original headlights. If you look closely at the center of the lights you will see the focus beam center. All other light lenses are in outstanding condition with little to no crazing. Original manuals and brochures are with the car. All systems are in top shape. I would not hesitate to drive coast to coast!! Registered appraisal of $29,900.00 DOT Safety inspected last week. The car gets rave reviews and thumbs up everywhere we go. While it is not a Concourse vehicle, it has many trophies and accolades. There are another 60 plus photos available for email. Any questions feel free to call 905-717-2431 I will help with shipping arrangements. There are some spare parts that go with the car. ( Hoses, lines, exhaust, factory original spotlight, wiper blades, car cover and more) The pictures speak for themselves.

2017 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid electrifies the family hauler

Mon, Jan 11 2016

The 2017 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid is the first-ever hybrid minivan – why didn't anyone think of this before? The extra jolt of electric propulsion lets Chrysler estimate this hauler can get a very green 80 miles per gallon equivalent, with 30 miles of full electric range. To make those amazing numbers possible, the Pacifica Hybrid uses a version of the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 that runs on the Atkinson cycle for improved efficiency, matched with an electric motor. A 16-kWh lithium-ion battery sits underneath the second-row floor to supply the energy. The PHEV doesn't launch until the latter half of 2016, but Chrysler currently estimates the powertrain's output at 248 horsepower, versus 287 hp from the non-hybrid Pacifica. Charging the system to full takes just two hours from a 240-volt outlet. Other than the charging port just head of the driver's door and different wheel designs, the Pacifica Hybrid looks the same as the other model. The nearly identical styling isn't a bad thing because this is one of the most attractive minivans ever. The aesthetics are similar inside, too, but the battery removes the ability to stow the second row of seats. However, the third row can still fold flat. First hybrid powertrain in minivan segment "Due to its large footprint and multiple daily trip patterns, the minivan is ideally suited for electrification technology," said Bob Lee, Vice President and Head of Engine, Powertrain and Electrified Propulsion Systems Engineering, FCA Â– North America. "The all-new 2017 Chrysler Pacifica lives up to this promise and then some, with efficiency, power and refinement." Launching in second half of 2016, the Pacifica Hybrid is the industry's first electrified minivan. With an estimated 248 horsepower, the vehicle will deliver an estimated range of 30 miles solely on zero-emissions electric power from a 16-kWh lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery. In city driving, it is expected to achieve an efficiency rating of 80 miles per gallon equivalent (MPGe), based on U.S. Environmental Protection Agency standards. When the battery's energy is depleted to a certain threshold, the Pacifica Hybrid becomes a part-time electric vehicle, like a conventional hybrid. Power to the wheels is supplied by the electric drive system or supplemented by a specially adapted new version of the award-winning FCA US Pentastar 3.6-liter V-6 engine.

Even with the new position, Gorlier continues to be the boss at Mopar and retains his seat on FCA's global executive council, which is the company's top decision-making group. This is essentially one more step up the ladder for the Turin-born executive. Gorlier became CEO of Mopar service, parts, and customer care for FCA US in 2009 and took over that role worldwide in 2011. FCA announces new appointment Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V.

Fiat Chrysler, surprise, had to buy a lot of emissions credits

Sun, Dec 27 2015

The world of carbon emissions uses some unusual units of measure. Take, for example, 8.2 million megagrams. Who needs to know how much that is? Someone at Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, that's who. FCA had to buy that many greenhouse-gas emissions credits from greener automakers, Reuters says, citing a report from the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Because its vehicles' collective fuel economy continues to trail the industry average, FCA purchased the emissions credits at of the end of 2014 in order to meet US emissions regulations. About two-thirds of those credits were acquired from Toyota, while the rest were purchased from Tesla and Honda. Daimler and Ferrari, not surprisingly, were among the other automobile companies that had to acquire emissions credits in order to meet US greenhouse gas regulations. Because the price for these credits is set privately by the companies, the EPA didn't disclose how much FCA had to pay to stay on the green side. The reason for the millions FCA likely spent is because the company is making a slow progress building and selling cleaner cars. The company did increase average fuel efficiency by about one mile per gallon to almost 22 mpg for the 2015 model year, but it wasn't enough. Such a performance likely only put the automaker in a last-place tie with General Motors. The emissions credits purchased from Tesla are notable because that California-based maker of electric vehicles has long generated substantial revenue by selling various credits to its less-electrified counterparts. In 2013, Tesla sold more of California's ZEV credits than any other automaker, but Nissan took that title in 2014. While these are not the same as the EPA's GHG credits, they do offer another way to track which automakers are meeting the targets and which need help.
