Omaha, Nebraska, United States

READ THIS ONE CAREFULLY IT'S A VERY COOL STORY....much like a "barn find" but stored in a garage since 1991.
Bought new at Baxter Chrysler-Plymouth in Omaha, Nebraska in the fall of 1978, the Chrysler was carefully driven until the purchase of the "new car" in 1991, an Olds 98. But the beloved Chrysler wasn't traded it was parked in the elderly couple's single car garage and covered up with blankets...LOTS of blankets!!! Fast forward the spring of 2014. Mr. M**** passed away leaving the beloved and beautiful Cordoba still covered under all those blankets. This is where I came in, purchasing the car from the estate. A new battery and some fresh gas the car fired right up!! Backed it from the garage and YES the "new car" '91 Olds right there in the driveway too!! The Olds NEVER saw the garage in 23 years there was only room for one...the beloved Cordoba......... The elderly couple kept EVERY single piece of documentation. Including the factory window sticker, the original bill of sale showing a 1966 "Pontiac 2-door" being traded in on the Chrysler. Even service coupons and promotions from Baxter's Chrysler were kept neatly with ALL the other paperwork. And the warranty booklet and owners manual and alot more!! All of these items AND a new Nebraska title stating ACTUAL MILES on the face!! Not an exempt title..it's an ACTUAL mile title!! The car is in MINT condition. NEVER rusted, damaged or repainted. The car you see in the pictures has not been detailed, just lightly cleaned. The ONLY cosmetic issues are as follows: A few and I mean very few stone chips on the nose of the car near the headlights. On the door panels, the plastic is discolored for some reason. My guess is that there was a cleaner used that didn't agree with it causing this sometime in the past. The car was undercoated AND rust proofed when new. The interior is in otherwise excellent condition. No rips or tears, perfect glass, carpet AND headliner. WHAT A TIME CAPSULE!! Mechanically it starts instantly and runs smoothly EVEN with the Lean Burn System still functioning. The 360 V8 2-barrell doesn't miss a beat. The transmission shifts as it should nice and smooth. The car has power steering and power brakes that stop the car nice and smooth. Tilt wheel and cruise control that works perfectly. Even a power driver's seat!! Oddly, the car was a radio delete but a $79. AM radio was added by the dealer. The car was ordered with a Sure-grip rear end but no remote or "sport" mirror was ordered. The factory AC blows ICE COLD. The tires look good but it's unknown how old they are. To sum it up...this is one of those "ONCE IN A LIFE TIME" cars that just don't come along all that often. The reserve is a fair one but I'm NOT giving the car away. So...bid with confidence and bid to own it!! If you have ANY questions about the car give me a call anytime for an HONEST discussion about the car. I just want to stress what a fantastic find this car really is!! I'm Tom and my number is 402-650-3849 OK...the fine print. The winning bidder to send a $1000. non-refundable deposit via Paypal 48 hours end of auction. The balance to be paid within 7 days with certified bank checks, bank to bank wire transfer, or cash when you pick the car up. The car is safe and sound in a climate controlled building and can stay there until it's picked up. Also, if you choose to drive it home I'd be happy to pick you up at the airport. I can also suggest a local transporter that I've personally used for years. Shipping is the buyer's responsibility and expense. READ MY AD CAREFULLY and call with any questions Thanks Tom |

Italian government to lean on Fiat's Marchionne to commit to country
Sun, 26 May 2013With the recent chatter that Fiat is looking to move its global headquarters to the US following a complete merger with Chrysler, the Italian government is voicing its opinion on the matter. Facing the potential job loss from the automaker leaving the country, Italy's industry minister is meeting with Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne in what will likely be a plea to keep the company based in Turin rather than moving to Auburn Hills, MI - if indeed it is able to acquire the additional 41.5 percent of Chrysler currently owned by the United Auto Workers.
According to Bloomberg, Fiat is Italy's biggest private employer and unemployment is already nearing a 20-year high. The non-car side of Fiat, Fiat Industrial, is already planning a move to the UK, so it goes without saying that Fiat moving would be a pretty big blow for the Italian economy. In the article, Fiat says that the headquarters issue is "not on its agenda now," but that statement is far from a denial.
Ram confirms Fiat Ducato vans to form new Promaster series for US
Wed, 28 Nov 2012Chrysler has officially confirmed that Ram will develop an all-new large van for the US market based on the Fiat Ducato. The commercial rig will go on sale in the third quarter of next year, joining the Ram C/V on the company's professional van line. Expect to see the Promaster face off against the Ford Transit and revised Chevrolet Express.
Chrysler is pretty skimpy on details when it comes to the Promaster, but it has said the vehicle will make use of "familiar Ram Truck styling cues." The van will reportedly also bow with powertrains targeted specifically at the North American market.
Chrysler and Ram made the announcement ahead of the LA Auto Show alongside news that the company will launch a new Ram commercial truck division.
Marchionne says Fiat Chrysler can make 6 million cars per year
Tue, 01 Apr 2014The combined Fiat Chrysler Automobiles will see its production capacity increase from a projected 4.6 million in 2014 to 6 million units once it completes its integration, according to statements made by FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne.
"With the initiatives we will announce in May, six million is accessible," Marchionne said during a Fiat shareholders' meeting in Turin, according to The Detroit News. Marchionne is aiming to complete the merger between the Turin, Italy-based Fiat and the Auburn Hills, MI-based Chrysler by the end of this year.
Increasing production by 1.4 million units is no small order, particularly when combined Fiat and Chrysler sales have increased only modestly in the past few years - only 4.4 million units were sold in 2013, and while 4.6 million is projected for 2014, 4.5 million is also a distinct possibility. Six million units per year has been Marchionne's self-imposed goal for the combined automaker, according to The News, claiming that FCA would need to crest that point to achieve profitability.
