You are viewing my 1972 Chrysler Newport Royale with a 400 cu in V8 motor and brand-new magnum wheels on BF Goodrich TA radial tires. As you can see from the photos, it is a very striking car. That beautiful gold paint, the gleaming chrome, the Magnums on raised letters and that dazzling motor make this a muscle car to be reckoned with. And with all that cool, its still got plenty of room for the family and the big car road manners to take you anywhere you want to go in comfort and style. But what is really great about this car is that you simply don't see them anymore. Sure, you see Mustangs and Camaros and Corvettes everywhere you go, but you may go years without seeing another '72 Newport, let alone one in this incredible condition. Look at how perfect all the panel gaps still are! I've done a lot of driving in this car over the last month or so and it is simply a great running, ready-to-go cruiser with a whole lot of attitude and a uniqueness that sets it apart from nearly everything else on the road. This is a car you can put in your garage and take it out for sunny day drives, or you could just as easily drive it every day. It is a great American classic, one that will remind you to slow down life a little bit, smell the roses, and enjoy some time with family and friends. That's my favorite part of owning a classic car, the fact that they help people come together and relax. Maybe enjoy a long weekend, or a drive to the lake, or just head out on a balmy evening when the wind is just right and the sound of that big motor humming down the highway is like a great rock n' roll song. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. I love all classics (I still own my first classic that I bought when I was 16!), so I'm open to interesting trades as well. Thanks again for taking a look at my Chrysler. -- Dustin Here's a link to more photos: http://www.supersportmotors.com/view_car.php?vehicle_id=186

NHTSA investigating power modules on Chrysler Group SUVs and minivans
Mon, 29 Sep 2014The Center for Auto Safety is officially petitioning the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to begin scrutinizing alleged problems with the totally integrated power module (TIPM) on about 24 Chrysler Group SUVs and minivans. The advocacy group claims that the part's failure can cause affected vehicles to stall or not start at all. NHTSA is still looking into the accusations and deciding whether a full investigation is actually warranted.
The CAS petition claims at least 70 TIPM failures, but according to NHTSA, six of the complaints are for models that don't have the modules. In 34 of the reported cases, the vehicles refused to start, and in 17 of them the engine stalled. There were also two allegations of smoke and one of a fire. However, none of these affected airbag deployment or resulted in a crash.
This petition isn't the first TIPM-related problem for Chrysler Group. A recent report in the New York Times alleged that it found 240 complaints potentially related to the issue on NHTSA's website alone. In September, the automaker also recalled 230,760 examples worldwide (188,723 in the US) of the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango replace the fuel pump relay circuit inside of the TIPM-7 with one external to the unit. The original part could allegedly cause the models to stall without warning. Even earlier, the company also recalled about 80,000 examples of the Jeep Wrangler and Dodge Nitro in 2007 to have the module reprogrammed.
How fracking is causing Chrysler minivans to sit on Detroit's riverfront
Fri, 25 Apr 2014It's fascinating the way that one change to a complex system can have all sorts of unintended consequences. For instance, there are hundreds of new Chrysler Town and County and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans built in Windsor, Ontario, sitting in lots on the Detroit waterfront because of the energy boom in the Bakken oil field in the northern US and parts of Canada.
The huge amount of crude oil coming from these sites mostly use freight trains for transport, and that supply boom has resulted in a shortage of railcars to carry other goods. According to The Windsor Star, North American crude oil transport by train has gone from 9,500 carloads in 2008 to 434,032 carloads in 2013. Making matters worse, some North American rail infrastructure is still damaged because of this year's harsh winter, and that's slowing things down even further.
Chrysler admits to The Star that it has had some delivery delays due to the freight train shortage. In the meantime, it's using more trucks to deliver its vehicles. Trucking is a far less economical solution, partially because a train can carry so many more units at one time, but alternatives are slim. The Windsor plant alone has a deal for 33 trucks to distribute the minivans around Canada and the Midwestern US.
Jeep hiring 1,000 part-time workers in Toledo on Wrangler, Cherokee demand
Wed, 12 Mar 2014The new Jeep Cherokee has been quite a success for Chrysler, but its factory workers are getting tired. The automaker has agreed to hire up to 1,000 part-time, temporary employees at its Toledo Assembly Complex where the CUV and Wrangler are built. It will allow the company to keep Jeep production moving, while giving laborers a break.
According to plant manager Chuck Padden in the Toledo Blade, full-time workers are regularly taking on 60 hours a week, and it's beginning to wear on them. "To get them more time off is important to us, to make sure they're refreshed, and can work safely," said Padden.
Chrysler has already hired 380 temporary, part-time workers for the plant, and 50 have been converted to full-time employees. The company is in the process of interviewing the rest of the new hires now and plans to have all 1,000 in place by the summer. They will work between 10 and 30 hours a week mostly on weekends for $15.78 per hour with limited benefits. The temporary positions will last "as long as demand continues for the Jeep Wrangler and the Jeep Cherokee," said Jodi Tinson, Chrysler spokesperson for manufacturing and labor communications, to Autoblog in an email.
