1953 Chrysler Custom Crown Imperial. Only 823 of these we're made in 1953. Story is the man bought it new and only drove it around town for a couple years then he passed away. After that his wife let it sit in the garage for 30 years. Then it went to a body shop in the 90s to get restored and the shop closed down and the car sat there for 10 more years. They took off some front trim and started doing bodywork I have all front trim and door panels in trunk. All side window and back trim is still on the car. Even vent window visors and crown emblems. Dash is beautiful has all knobs working and steering wheel is in very good condition, not much wear or tear that's why I truly believe this is a 9k mile car, it even has factory "OK" stamps still on the firewall. It's a true time capsule it came with a issue of popular mechanics from feb 1953 witch I will include with the car. Original wire wheels and a spare. HEMI engine, "fire power" and it's all there even the wiring. Power windows, power locks, power brakes, power steering and first year for ac! This was a luxury car in its day. The unfortunate thing is when it was at the body shop over those years it sat outside and all the interior turned to a crisp the dash pad is cracked and seats are falling apart. Everything is there, just has to be upholstered. Also from sitting outside the rocker panels went bad. The floor is solid and around the windows is nice as well. Even the drip rails over the windows are clean with no rust at all. Only on the outer rocker panels. Truly a beautiful and unique car. I had a hard time even finding any online. Also someone told me it was a special order with some add ons that didn't come factory. These cars are very rare and go for 35-40k when restored. Any questions please let me know. John 626 222 3093

Chrysler dealers terminated in bankruptcy still stuck in court
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Part of the deal for the federal bailouts of Chrysler and General Motors was that both organizations were required to trim their vast array of dealerships. This move did not sit well with the people that would be losing out on franchises, though, and in Chrysler's case, 148 of the shuttered dealers have fought for money they feel they are entitled to.
These dealers believe that they should be compensated by the federal government, as Chrysler wouldn't have trimmed its sales centers had it not been ordered to by Uncle Sam. Now, thanks to the ruling of three judges on the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, the dealers will get a chance to argue their point.
According to Automotive News, the dealers argue that the mandatory shuttering of dealers was unconstitutional, because the federal government was taking property without compensation. If the dealers are victorious, not only would the government be out millions of dollars, but a precedent could be set that would allow similarly closed GM dealerships to cash in.
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.
