1968 Chrysler Town And Country Wagon on 2040-cars

Year:1968 Mileage:100006
Location:

New Tazewell, Tennessee, United States

New Tazewell, Tennessee, United States

This is an original 1968 Chrysler Town and Country wagon.  It was purchased new on December 13, 1967, by Mr. Edward B. Robinson at Bill Binko Chrysler Plymouth in Fort Lauderdale, FL. Mr. Robinson paid $6,051.06. I have the original title, sales agreement, and dealer invoice. It has a 383ci engine.

It has the following options:

- vinyl split bench seat
- air conditioning
- power seat L 6-way (power driver seat)
- radio AM-FM
- power windows
- tailgate washer (yes it is a window washer for the tailgate window - rare
  option)
- luggage rack
- right head rest (passenger head rest)
- tinted glass
- left remote mirror
- door moldings
- deluxe lap belts
- undercoat
- 8.85x14 white side wall tires

It also has a reclining passenger seat.

I have the original hubcaps. However, at some point, someone changed out the original 14 inch wheels for 15 inch wheels.
  It has the original jack in the spare tire compartment.

It is missing the driver’s side kick panel and the antenna.  I actually have the antenna and the base, but it has been broken.

The very end of the hood has some holes due to rust. I think it was dripped on over the years. These are the only holes in the car.  The rest of the body is solid with some minor areas of surface rust. The car was undercoated when new and the undercarriage is solid.

It runs and moves, but the brakes need to be bled before it can be driven.  The car will need some restoration work, but with a little tinkering you could have her ready for the local cruise-ins and car shows.  After than you can restore it while you drive it. 

The interior is in original condition.  The seams have split on the bottom portion of the front seat (see photos). The rear seat and rear facing seat are in excellent condition.  The door panels and headliner are in great shape as well. The dash is free of cracks.

All of the glass is good and free of cracks or hazing.

Chrysler recalling over 280k minivans because airbags may deploy on wrong side

Mon, 08 Jul 2013

Chrysler has issued a recall for some 2013 Town & Country, Dodge Grand Caravan and Ram C/V Tradesman vans built between May 10, 2012 and June 7, 2013. These vehicles may have a software error that would cause the wrong side (opposite side) airbags to deploy in a crash. With this defect, a left-side impact would cause the right-side airbag to deploy, etc.
The recall affects 281,500 vehicles in total: 224k in the US, 49,300 in Canada, 2,900 in Mexico and 5,300 in other locations. Chrysler will notify owners of effected vehicles, and reflash the offending occupant restraint control module to resolve the issue. Scroll down to read the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration press release.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles targets mid-October IPO

Thu, 04 Sep 2014

The merged Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is targeting October 13 to launch its initial public offering on the New York Stock Exchange, CEO Sergio Marchionne told reporters assembled for a meeting in Rimini, Italy.
"The most likely date for the listing in the US is October 13," Marchionne said, according to Reuters.
Marchionne is trusting that the money made in the IPO will be contribute heavily his ambitious, $64-billion five-year growth plan, which will see FCA reboot Alfa Romeo and Maserati and expand Jeep's global presence. Should the IPO fall short, though, Marchionne has confirmed that "all decision [sic] on any capital increase will be taken by the board of FCA at the end of October."

Honda may recall up to 1M vehicles for airbag issue, following Toyota's lead

Mon, 16 Jun 2014

It seems Toyota won't be the only one recalling the faulty Takata airbag inflators for long. Honda insiders in Japan claim that the company is getting close to announcing its own worldwide campaign that would begin before the end of June.
Unnamed sources close to Honda in Japan tell Automotive News that the company is pursuing an internal investigation into possibly affected models and is working with Takata to gather more information. They claim that it could involve even more than the 1.14 million cars worldwide that the automaker covered under the first recall for the problem in April 2013, including 561,000 vehicles in the US.
Toyota jumpstarted this process last week when it recalled over 2 million cars worldwide, including 844,277 in the US. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began a preliminary evaluation into the issue following six reported incidents, and started assembling data about potentially affected models from Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Chrysler. NHTSA also began investigating Takata itself.
