Selling my 1963 Chrysler New Yorker Salon. This a rare car! They only made the Salon model in 63-64. In 63 they built 593 and in 64 they built 1,621. Thats only a total of 2,214 in 2 years! This car has every option including AC, Power Steering, Power Brakes, Auto Pilot (cruise control), Power windows, Power seat, head rest, Arm rest in front and rear, rear cigarette lighters, map lights.....etc. See the pictures for the full list. It has a 413cu V8 with a automatic push button transmission.

I bought this car as a project because its just cool, but I just don't have the time to fix it. When I got it there was no radiator, air cleaner, or starter, but everything else seems to be there and original. After I bought it I put in a new starter, plugs, wires, and carb kit, but could never get it started. It turns over slow so I put a oil pump primer on it and it wouldnt' pump. I installed a new oil pump but still could never get oil to the top end of the motor and that is as far as I got. I think theres a possible oil passage blocked or bad bearing in the motor somewhere which isnt allowing oil to the top of the motor. I have not pulled the motor and verified this though. The tires are currently flat but should air up fine.

There is some rust in a few places as well as some bondo on the hood and trunk lid and wheel wells. It appears to have been repainted at some point, but most of the clear coat is gone on the top side.

I have the original owners manual where the dealer filled out the info on the car. It was originally sold in New York and even have the name of the dealership that sold it!

This would make a great restoration project but I just don't have the time or the funds right now and would rather see someone get her running then just let it sit longer. I have a clear Title. Feel free to ask questions. I also have this car for sale locally, so reserve the right to end the auction early.

Payment is to be paid in CASH upon pickup and should be picked up within 2 weeks of auction end unless other arrangements are made.

Jeep Wrangler diesel likely after 2015 model refresh

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

We automotive journalists aren't always the right people to ask about whether a US-spec vehicle should or should not be offered with a diesel powertrain (hint: the answer is usually "YES"). But when it comes to the iconic, off-road-ready Jeep Wrangler, we aren't the only ones who have been clamoring for an oil-burning engine behind that famous seven-slat grille. To that end, it appears there's good news on the horizon, as Jeep CEO Mike Manley recently told Ward's Auto that the "Wrangler is on the radar to get (a) diesel."
"I'm confident that the Grand Cherokee will show just how large a demand there is for diesel, and I think what that will do is reinforce the need for us to target Wrangler as a vehicle that can take a diesel," Manley told Ward's. The most rugged of Jeeps is scheduled to get an overhaul around 2015-16, and the diesel powertrain will likely be introduced around that time.
This year alone, Chrysler will be adding a diesel engine to the Grand Cherokee SUV, as well as the Ram 1500 pickup and Promaster utility van.

UAW urging Chrysler to sell shares to investors

Thu, 10 Jan 2013

The United Auto Workers union is pushing Chrysler to sell 16.6 percent of its stock to investors in an attempt to establish the value of the shares. The UAW is currently locked in a lawsuit with Chrysler parent company Fiat over how much the Italian automaker should pay to buy shares from the trust fund. Last year, Fiat told the trust it intended to exercise its right to purchase 3.3 percent of the union's shares at issue. But the union contended the 54,154 shares were worth closer to $381 million instead of the $155 million Fiat offered.
Currently, the UAW owns 41.5 percent of Chrysler while Fiat holds 58.5 percent of the company. Currently, it's unclear whether the UAW could force Chrysler to put the shares on the open market. Doing so would be the first step toward a much-anticipated initial public offering. Chrysler has said it will comply with its shareholders agreement, and Fiat has echoed that tune. According to The Detroit Free Press, the UAW Retiree Medical Benefits Trust has declined to comment on the situation.

Marchionne to take his sweater and go home after 2018

Wed, 08 Oct 2014

The end is in sight for Fiat Chrysler boss Sergio Marchionne, who confirmed in an interview with Bloomberg that once FCA's sweeping five-year plan is completed, he'd be stepping down from his post to "undoubtedly" do something else that didn't involve turning around global corporations. That would mean he should finish up after 2018 if all goes according to plan.
"It's as important to walk away from the table as it is to sit down," Marchionne told Bloomberg.
Marchionne has been at Fiat since June of 2004 and is one of the chief architects behind the Italian company's acquisition of Chrysler. Despite his successes, he does sound quite ready to move beyond the auto industry, rhetorically asking his Bloomberg interviewers if there "are other things I like to do apart from this?"
