78 NYB, 4 door hardtop, 400, lockup 727. Car runs perfect, and would be drivable anywhere with no work. I was driving this car daily until last fall. Was never driven in winter, I am the second owner. Has new tires, hoses, HEI ignition, Edelbrock carb, dual exhaust, Monroe air shocks. Factory non catylist car, no egr, no air pump. Engine is perfect and clean, no sludge and pics to prove that.

This is one of the least optioned NYB's around! Did not even have a vinyl top, which to me is a bonus as the roof was actually finished and painted, no rust! The only option it got was manual AC, no auto temp II to worry about.

No power seats, locks, etc. not even a passenger side mirror! It of course does have power windows as they were standard equipment. It is a Canadian spec so the rear electric defogger was standard. Delay wipers work perfect as well.

Car is as rust free as you can get, seriously!, the only spots are the lower rear quarters. These have been patched simply with metal riveted over, these are not visible unless you really look for them. All other metal on the car is perfect but the paint needs work. There are the usual dings and dents as well as some areas where the paint is worn off. Chrome is all good and everything works as it should. You will not see one of these as clean as this! Inside, outside and underside is SPOTLESS. A must see if you want the last of the full size Chryslers, the last of the B block passenger cars!

Has a medium duty trailer hitch as well. The interior is very good with just some light fading of the material in some areas. Needs a steering wheel or even just a cover to clean things up a bit. Dash is perfect.
Car would make a nice import to your country! Big comfy couch with a cigarette lighter and ashtray on each door! Reading lamps and passenger pillows. They don't come any more comfortable than this.

Pics, these are a bit old but the car looks exactly as shown. Come and see it or email for more pics.

Chrysler 200 replacement coming in January

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Autoweek reports the next Chrysler 200 will bow early next year. CEO Sergio Marchionne has said the 2015 model will debut next January, and Chrysler plans to cut the 2014 200 model year short to make way for the model's successor. According to AW, internal documents reveal 2014 model production will start this July and run through early January, 2014. The memos don't specify whether its Dodge Avenger twin will also see a shortened model year (the latter was originally rumored for discontinuation, but a successor is apparently back on the table). Chrysler is investing some $1 billion to construct paint and body facilities at its Sterling Heights, Michigan plant for the next-generation 200.
From what we've heard so far, we can expect the 2015 200 to bring a new design language to the Chrysler brand that will eventually bleed into the automaker's other products. Early reports have also suggested the four door will boast a nine-speed automatic transmission and return up to 38 miles per gallon.
Chrysler executed a very successful facelift in 2011, turning the flailing Sebring into the newly minted 200. Buyers responded enthusiastically, with sales jumping 44 percent in 2012. That step up was enough to make the 200 the brand's best-selling car. The momentum hasn't slackened, either, with sales up 21 percent during the first two months of this year.

This forgotten Chrysler was its bid for Humvee contract

Wed, 27 Aug 2014

Today, the Humvee might be as associated with the dead automotive brand from General Motors as it is with the hard-working truck that has long served as one of the backbone vehicles of America's military. But Autoline host John McElroy is showing off a practically unknown part of the model's story by digging out some old photos from his personal archive.
The High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle project, better known today as the Humvee, can be traced back to a US Department of Defense request for bids to build a new military truck. According to McElroy, he was invited to the Chrysler proving grounds in 1981 to check out the bid from the brand's defense division. The company's concept was that it might be able to build an inexpensive, capable vehicle by using off-the-shelf parts.
The angular body panels gave the truck a look almost like a modern, stealth vehicle. However, the flat look was actually just to make the tooling as cheap as possible to produce. Still, this Chrysler looked surprisingly futuristic for the early '80s. It's actually not too far away from the famous Lamborghini LM002, itself intended as a possible military-spec machine.

Marchionne completed Fiat-Chrysler deal from a Florida beach

Fri, 03 Jan 2014

Sergio Marchionne is the CEO of Fiat, which as you may have heard, has finally worked up a deal to finish acquiring the Chrysler Group after months of bargaining with the United Auto Workers and its VEBA healthcare trust, which owned just over 40 percent of the American brand. Where was Marchionne when the deal was finally hammered out? Well, not tucked away in a frigid Detroit board room until the wee hours of the morning.
Nope, one of the largest deals in automotive history was reportedly hammered out on the beach - at the home of a banker, in the Florida resort town of Vero Beach. Marchionne traveled to the home of Alain Lebec, a senior managing director at Brock Capital LLC, one of the advisory companies for the VEBA fund, where both sides met to make final arrangements in the $4.35-billion exchange. The location of the final deal, though, is nearly as remarkable as the pace with which it came about.
According to anonymous sources pinned down by Automotive News Europe, before the meeting, the two sides were meeting in Detroit as recently as December 19, which is where Fiat made one of its final revised offers. Naturally, the VEBA made a counter offer, which led Marchionne to initiate the Vero Beach meeting.
