1961 Chrysler Imperial 4 Door 413cu In. Rat Rod Hot Rod Nostalgic on 2040-cars
Huntsville, Ontario, Canada
|
Complete for restoration, hot rod or rat rod build or parts if you are looking for all those hard to find pieces for your own. Many good parts and trim. Complete dash, drive-train, chassis, etc. Has rust across lower three inches of car through-out yet spotless in others (see pics), I haven't heard it run or drive but consider it to be requiring a total overhaul (engine is stuck, I've oiled the cylinders but consider it seized) I took it in as part trade and don't this one hanging around for long, she is just too awesome to sit any longer. We've seen steering wheels listed for over the starting price of this auction. Tail lights and headlights sell for over $300 a set! Everything is here. 413 cu.in (6.8L) with matching torque flight push button transmission. Some of the Imperial best known and distinctive features were the steering wheel was squared-off at top and bottom, designed for better leg room and view through the windshield, dashboard lighting was "electroluminescent" which glowed more than lit-up, it has the largest tail fins ever, the Imperial would once again be the longest non-limousine car made in America though 1966...Google it cause I did. Will make a great rat rod too! I don't want to part it out even though I'd make a lot more money that way, I just don't have the inclination or time to do so. |

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.
More 2015 Chrysler 200 photos surface
Wed, 08 Jan 2014Just 24 hours after the first official 2015 Chrysler 200 shot made its way onto the web, a whole smattering of images have surfaced, courtesy of the folks at Motorward. Here, we can see the new Chrysler family sedan from every angle, including the interior, and might we say, she's pretty.
As we told you yesterday, the new 200 will be offered with either a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine with 184 horsepower and 173 pound-feet of torque or a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 with 295 hp and 262 lb-ft. A nine-speed automatic transmission accessed through Chrysler's rotary shifter (mounted on a Volvo-style floating center console) will direct power to the wheels. We've heard that both front- and all-wheel drive will be available, and what's more, it's been said that the new 200 will be able to achieve at least 35 miles per gallon on the highway.
An on-sale date has yet to be announced, but the new 200 will reportedly be priced at $21,700, not including $995 for destination. Have a look at the new round of photos in the gallery above - the striking blue model above looks to be the sportier 200S - and stay tuned for the officially official stuff early next week... if not sooner.
