Up for auction is a VERY CLEAN ORIGINAL 1972 Chrysler Imperial with approximately 24,700 DOCUMENTED miles. This vehicle has original paint, body panels, engine, transmission and interior. The vehicle has also won numerous awards for its category including "Best in Class" in 2007 & "First Place" in 2011. Interior is pristine with no stains, tears, blemishes on the seats or dashboard. Carpet is like new with no rips or tears. Headlight motors work flawlessly as well as the power antenna. This vehicle has always been stored in a garage and I always followed "winter storage" guidelines. Raised the wheels off the ground to protect the tires, changed the oil and antifreeze before AND after winter storage as well as covered with custom car cover during storage. All power windows and locks work great with the exception of the passenger side rear window. It works fine but moves a little slower than the other windows. The "Air Temp" system (otherwise known as automatic climate control) has been disassembled due to manufacturer problems of that era. I have all the parts available including the servo, there are aftermarket companies that will exchange parts for working materials if buyer desires to fix. However everything else in the "Air Temp" system is fully functional including the compressor. When I purchased the vehicle in 2005 I installed new brakes on all four wheels, new OEM radiator with all new hoses and OEM Fuel Tank. Both the carburetor was rebuilt and new dual exhaust was installed to factory specifications from header to rear. Tires are new with less than 1,000 miles on them. With the vehicle comes an extra set of tires mounted on Chrysler Imperial rims used for winter storage.
Pictures will show only one minor scratch on the vehicle located on the right rear quarter panel. Vinyl roof in great shape with the exception of a very small (approx. 1") flaw where it has slipped out from trim piece.
This car runs very well, is fun to drive and has an extremely smooth ride. Really captures the looks from passer by. Vehicle weighs approximately 5,000 lbs., is about 18-19 feet in length and about 6.5 feet wide. Along with the purchase comes numerous extra original equipment trim pieces & tail lights. Thank you looking!

Chrysler de Mexico to sell rebadged Mitsubishi model in shades of Colt deal
Wed, 02 Jul 2014Chrysler and Mitsubishi have had a close relationship since the early '70s. Back then, they partnered up to sell the Japanese brand's models under American names as captive imports in the US. Vehicles like the Dodge Colt, Eagle Summit, and eventually the 3000GT/Stealth twins and lots of other cars and trucks became the fruits of that alliance. In fact, the two companies still maintain a good rapport, as evidenced by reports of a new deal to sell the Mitsubishi Attrage, also known the Mirage G4, in Mexico starting in November.
The Attrage is a small, four-door sedan that borrows many of the mechanical bits from the Mitsubishi Mirage hatchback. According to Automotive News, the deal allows Chrysler to sell the model in Mexico for the next five years. The deal could be a win-win for both companies. Mitsubishi gets to use more capacity at its Laem Chabang, Thailand factory where the car is made, and Chrysler gets a new vehicle for a growing market with almost zero development costs. At this time, there's no indication of the new model's name in Mexico, though.
There's also still a chance the Attrage might make it to the US market as well. The automaker showed off the sedan as the Mirage G4 at the 2014 Montreal Motor Show ahead of promised sales in small-car-friendly Canada. The Mirage hatchback was introduced to the US in a similar way, debuting in Canada first and then crossing the border. While reviews for the Mirage have been pretty atrocious, it would still be interesting to see Mitsubishi further expanding its lineup in North America.
What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name
Thu, 07 Aug 2014
The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?
Hot sales have Detroit automakers shortening summer shutdowns
Tue, 08 Jul 2014Back in May, there was speculation that the Detroit Three automakers would maintain or perhaps even extend their traditional summer shutdowns, mostly due to a bitingly cold winter that saw below-freezing temperatures infiltrate the southernmost reaches of the US, putting a chill on auto sales. Now, though, the numbers are in, and thanks to some promising sales figures, it looks like some domestic line workers are going to be working clear through July, in some cases.
According to Automotive News, Ford has slashed its traditional two-week hiatus for factory workers in half at four of its plants, while both Chrysler and General Motors will keep factories running nonstop (two plants in Chrysler's case and a third of GM's factories).
This is, as we said, thanks to some positive numbers. Chief among those is the Seasonal Adjusted Annual Rate, which was at an eight-year high of 17 million units. Individual figures were less promising. GM, embroiled in its recall scandal, still saw a one-percent increase while Ford dropped six percent in year-over-year sales. Chrysler was the big winner, though, with a nine-percent jump in June.
