This vehicle has an interesting story to go along with it. The car was found under a fig tree where it had been sitting for 30 or so years. The tree had to be cut away to even see the car. Bees had made a hive inside the left side of the trunk but the bees have all been removed and the hive is gone. The only thing left is the rusty trunk floor and left quarter.

This vehicle needs a total restoration and is mostly complete, missing only a few things.The car does have some rusty parts and dents in a few places. I put an electric fuel pump on the car to see if it would start and it did. It smoked for a little while but it went away and the car seems to run really good. The driveshaft is not in the car( it is in the trunk), so I have not driven the car, the push buttons for the transmission seem to be stuck in reverse (the trans is turning when the engine is running) so that will need to be addressed as well. I have not pulled the carpet back to see what the floors look like but I will if you need pics of those areas. I took as many pics as I could so you could see all the areas. The frame rails look to be in good shape, all the glass is in good shape, I haven't noticed any dents in the trim except for the broken 300 medallions on the rear quarters. The bumpers will need to be stripped and rechromed. I have another right door that is complete that will go with the car (in case you don't want to fix the dent in the current door). The taillights are broken as is the left taillight trim. All the pics of the underside of the car show only surface rust that may/may not be an issue to clean up. When I took the pics the car was running so I took a pic of the instrument panel. The charging system was working, the oil pressure was up and the temp gauge was working. I did replace the water pump and I put a used starter in the car so it would run without any problems. The fuel line is not hooked up and the brake master cylinder is empty. I do not know the condition of the fuel tank but I would bet it needs replacing. 

I have a number of parts that go with the car: One extra door glass, the bumper jack, one horn, the door previously mentioned, water pump pulley, two outer mirrors, one ashtray, 6 boxes that contain seals and springs for the wheel cylinders, the "Chrysler" plate for the left front fender, an extra hood latch, an extra trunk latch, two misc pieces for an instrument panel and a front turn signal housing. I also have a push button mechanism for the dash (transmission i believe).

Please ask any and all questions before you bid, also if you need/want pictures of any other area that I did not cover let me know and I will post them for you.

Car has a clean/clear title. Car is being offered as is without any warranty expressed or implied. 

THE AREA WHERE THE NUMBERS ARE STAMPED HAS AN "S" ON IT. I LOOKED THAT "S" UP AND IT MAY BE THAT THIS ENGINE WAS A WARRANTY REPLACEMENT ENGINE.

Bob Dylan to star in Chrysler Super Bowl spot [w/videos]

Thu, 30 Jan 2014

Billboard reports that Bob Dylan will be working with Chrysler again, this time starring in a Super Bowl ad expected to showcase the company's new 200 sedan. The rock icon first tied up with the Chrysler Group late last year when a commercial for the new 2014 Jeep Cherokee used Dylan's unreleased cover of Blind Willie Johnson's "Motherless Children" for its soundtrack.
The last big-game commercial for the 200 used Eminem in 2011 to introduce us to the outgoing 200 and the tagline-turned-mini-movement, "Imported from Detroit." Since then, Clint Eastwood, Berry Gordy, Jr., and America's farmers have taken turns impressing us with Chrysler Group's wares. It isn't yet known what song will be used for the spot. Speaking of the coming ad, company CEO Sergio Marchionne said, "Someone made the comment to me that I had the right commercial in 2011 and the wrong car. I think we now have hopefully the right commercial and the right car."
It's not Dylan's first outing with a carmaker, having starred in a spot to promote the Cadillac Escalade in 2007. Nor will it be the only Dylan music we get during the Super Bowl, the singer having licensed a track that's used in a one-minute commercial for Chobani Greek yogurt.

Chrysler and Hyundai join Pepsi and Coke as top Super Bowl spenders [w/ video]

Thu, 23 Jan 2014

Super Bowl XLVIII is barely a week away, and some of the early ads are already leaking out. It's timely then that The Street has released rankings of the top five Super Bowl advertisers since 2009, showing Chrysler and Hyundai/Kia taking two of the spots with $131.7 million in cumulative spending.
Since 2010, the cost to air a 30-second Super Bowl ad has risen from $3 million in 2009 to about $4 million in 2014, and about a fifth of advertisers opt for a one-minute ad, which doubles costs. Last year, the ads brought in $292 million, and they have brought in roughly $2 billion since 2010.
Chrysler has spent $64.3 million since 2009 to make it the fourth highest spending company in the last five years. In that time, the company has rebranded itself as it emerged from bankruptcy with the Imported from Detroit ad campaign that premiered in 2011 and last year's God Made a Farmer Ram Trucks ad. Its 2012 Halftime in America sparked national debate about whether it was also a reference to the upcoming presidential election.

Ram confirms Fiat Ducato vans to form new Promaster series for US

Wed, 28 Nov 2012

Chrysler 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.
