Was rebuilt, and is in the process of still being completely restored. New engine was put in in 2010, has 30,000 miles on it as of 6/6/14. Miles on speedometer says 97,000 or somewhere around that. New shocks were put on 5/5/14. Most parts on the car are either completely original or brand new. The things that are original, are the only things I have had to fix over the 4 years. The interior is a bit incomplete, it has rubber floor mats, and the seats are dry rotted. The headliner was installed in 2010, and it still looks great. The exterior was freshly painted in 2010. It has a couple dings, ad rusts spots, from everyday wear and tear. the rear deck lid has a little ding and rust spot, where I Backed into someone. The car is beautiful overall, runs great, I drive it on a daily Basis. The tires are only a year old, but only have about 1500 miles on them. This car is manual, 4 cylinder. Runs like a champ. The car has the original stick shift in it, and the running boards seem to be from a 1974 beetle style, but they were put in brand new in 2010. The windshield wipers runs off the spare tire and whatnot. There is a blower motor in it for the heat, which works fabulous once you get the car going! The exhaust was put on new in 2011, but has normal wear and tear. Spark plugs, distributer, points, coil, air filter were all just changed 5/5/14. In the city it gets about 20 mpg, and highway about 30 mpg. I drive it on a daily basis, so I know it is a reliable car.

Chrysler slows minivan production, hasn't built VW Routan this year
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Chrysler has slowed production of its Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans this week, Automotive News reports. The Windsor, Ontario plant will cut its three shifts from eight hours each to four hours each in an effort "to align production with market demand," a Chrysler spokesperson told AN. Chrysler also builds the closely related Routan minivan for Volkswagen at its Ontario facility, but has not built a single example thus far in 2013.
Sales of Chrysler's minivans fell 15 percent for the first two months of 2013, and a large part of that has to do with the 26-percent drop of the Grand Caravan alone (the T&C was only down by one percent). According to Automotive News data, as of March 1, Chrysler had an unsold inventory of 24,713 Town and Country models and 18,547 Grand Caravans - a 69- and 43-day supply, respectively.
"No sense running full speed now, then have a lot of vehicles sitting around a few months down the line," Chrysler spokeswoman Jodi Tinson told AN. Full production is expected to resume again on March 18.

Volkswagen CrossBlue previews a three-row future, diesel-hybrid power [w/video]
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Volkswagen looks to be getting ready to jump into the large three-row crossover game. The automaker has officially pulled back the curtain on the CrossBlue Concept at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show.
Designers and engineers penned the machine specifically for the Canadian and US markets, and with a plug-in diesel electric hybrid drivetrain, the hulking five-door, at least in concept form, should offer substantially better efficiency than anything else on the market. The drivetrain pairs a 2.0-liter turbo diesel four-cylinder engine with two electric motors for a combined output of 305 horsepower and a ludicrous 516 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed dual-clutch gearbox handles shifting detail, while one electric motor spins the front wheels. The second motor spins the back axle independently, make the CrossBlue a through-the-road hybrid.
As a result, the crossover can pop to 60 mph in 7.2 seconds. Perhaps more impressively, the CrossBlue can whir around on all-electric propulsion for up to 14 miles at up to 75 mph. Once the diesel four kicks in, the drivetrain can yield up to 39 mpg, though Volkswagen says the hardware can hit 89 MPGe on a full charge thanks to a 9.8 kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Check out the full press release below for more information.
