Car runs and drives very well.The motor has approx. 30k on a rebuild..my mechanic thinks it has a cam in it as it idles a bit lumpy and has better power than most 360s. Radiator was replaced at the same time.  Car has Incredible oil pressure...runs at the top of the gauge...even hot..on the road.  Uses absolutely no oil.  The car does not leak, burn or use any fluids.  The motor does not smoke, knock or tick and the transmission (torqueflite 904) shifts as it should. The car always starts easily- hot or cold.  Needs a vacuum advance installed on the distributor (I have the part, but runs well enough that I haven't bothered to put it in yet) and a rear tranny mount replaced, it's a little loose- will cure the slight driveline vibration that it has. A/C is currently inop but the compressor has a rebuild tag on it...haven't looked into it and the cruise linkage is unhooked from the carb...haven't looked into that either.

The front seat was reupholstered at some point in a different cloth and is a little faded.  Dash is good with no cracks. Even the digital clock works and keeps good time!

Although the car is very rust free and the chrome is in very good condition, the paint is definitely a 10 footer with fading on the top surfaces and some peeling around the edges and around the sunroof. The car was originally 2-tone Spinnaker White and Nightwatch Blue but was painted in the past what appears to be B-5 blue. Has (5) of the rare(r) cast turbine wheel covers. There is also some scaly rust in the trunk where it has leaked in the past.  Being a CA car, the door window seals and trunk gasket are a bit dry and crumbly. My mechanic loves working on this car as the underneath is so clean...there isn't even surface rust under there. I have personally driven this car on several 200-600 mile trips with no issues whatsoever. The car averages about 12-15 MPG around town and 18 MPG or so on the highway.  I have seen 21 MPG on a trip. I get 'thumbs up' and waves and smiles every time I drive the car.  I would love to keep it.

All in all a nice and reliable car... I was planning on keeping it, so I made sure it was done right, but lost my winter storage...and the car is too clean to leave out in the weather this coming winter. I can assist you with shipping as I  am familiar with it...but ultimately the pick-yp of the car is up to you.  Will be more than happy to meet your shipper or pick you up at the airport/bus terminal/train station if you choose to drive it home. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or if you would like more pictures.

Chrysler fires protest organizer at MI assembly plant

Tue, 12 Mar 2013

Chrysler has reportedly fired a Warren Stamping Plant worker for what the company is calling a violation of its code of conduct. Alex Wassell (left), a 20-year veteran with the automaker, was suspended without pay after he was quoted in an article in The Detroit News. The 63-year-old welder repairman helped organize a demonstration against a new work schedule and was protesting outside the Michigan plant on February 28 when he was interviewed. Chrysler then fired Wassell when the paper published his comments. Wassell, has since filed a grievance and says that he's looking for an amicable settlement between his union and his former employer.
Meanwhile, multiple civil liberties groups have spoken out against Chrysler's decision to dismiss Wassell. Both the National Lawyer's Guild and the American Civil Liberties Union have released statements on the situation, with the ACLU saying "Employees have a right to air their grievances, even if that means a public demonstration or a comments to the media."
According to The Detroit News, Chrysler spokesperson Jodi Tinson said that Wassell was fired for "engaging in activity constituting or appearing to constitute a conflict with the interest of the company."

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.

FCA recalling 33k vans and SUVs for TPMS problems in two campaigns

Thu, 30 Oct 2014

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is issuing two, separate recalls covering a total of 33,443 examples in the US of the 2014 Ram ProMaster, 2014 Jeep Wrangler, 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan and 2014 Chrysler Town & Country because of potential problems with the tire pressure monitoring system in the vehicles.
The first campaign is for 23,053 units of the 2014 Ram ProMaster. It's possible for the TPMS to not recognize the location of the data coming from the sensors in the wheels. If this happens, then the low tire pressure warning light comes on and potentially gives the driver a false positive. If the warning isn't cleared, and drivers keep going, they might not be aware of another tire that actually has low pressure. This fix for this is a software update.
The second recall covers 10,390 examples of the 2014 Wrangler, Grand Caravan and Town & Country. According to FCA, it's possible that a test mode for the TPMS is still on since being shipped from the supplier. On affected vehicles, it could cause inaccurate pressure readings. The repair involves disabling that mode on the TPMS module.
