Granny's car! This car was owned by an elderly relative of mine, it was parked in her garage seven years ago when she went into a nursing home. She has since passed, and her car is being sold to settle her estate. I have clear title in hand.

A new battery was installed,, and fresh gas put in the tank, and it started right away. It has been driven approx. 50 miles, and there is nothing at all wrong with the way it runs or drives. The engine is smooth and idles nicely.  It has plenty of performance, and does not smoke or knock at all.  A very well kept vehicle for 25 years old!  Have all the owners manuals and papers for the car. Does 70 mph with no problem.  This car still gets looks!  Very comfortable to drive-seats feel real good!  Has convertible top boot. Was garaged most of its life, and the interior and features prove it. Was also dealer maintained, and never abused or driven hard.

The good> no rust Anywhere-and I do mean NO RUST.  We put it on a lift, and the attendant was amazed at just how clean the undercarriage was. Southern car, never seen snow or ice. No noticeable dents. Interior is almost like new. No splits, tears or defects on seats. Carpets are wear-free. Door panels are in great shape, but paint is chipping off on the drivers side handle area inside. Almost new tires, good exhaust, top is in good shape, does not leak and goes up and down flawlessly. Solid car, never wrecked to my knowledge. Can be driven away and to anywhere. Power top fits well, doors open and close solidly. Straight seams on body panels. Great brakes-high pedal, COLD air conditioning! I can honestly say this is a super-clean car with very little wear, no rust, and solid shape.

The bad> rear window behind passenger window sometimes does not work and go down all the way. Paint is solid and not faded, but needs a good buffing.  Side molding trim that was chromed is starting to peel, and will need attention. Radio works, hard to tune. Trip meter sometimes does not work if reset button pushed too hard. Small things, but I try to list as honestly as possible. Nothing seriously wrong with this car.

The last photo in the series shows what it looked like when it was backed out of the garage after being stored for seven years.

You will definitely not regret the purchase of this fine automobile in fantastic shape for its age. It is fun to drive, economical, and you will get lots of compliments and looks!

Sold at NO RESERVE-last bid gets it!

Vehicle is also listed for sale locally.

Chrysler's completely redesigned 200 caught totally uncovered

Fri, 13 Dec 2013

Preparing for a big debut at the Detroit Auto Show next month, the all-new 2015 Chrysler 200 was out for a late-night photo shoot fully undisguised, and our spy shooters were there to capture its all-new design completely uncovered. While there's no camouflage, the cover of darkness proved to be almost as effective, but we still get a good idea of what this former sore spot in the brand's lineup will look like after its clean-sheet redesign.
The first thing we notice is the stylish four-door-coupe roofline doing its best to impersonate something like the Audi A7, or maybe the Volkswagen CC. The front-end styling is a departure from recent Chrysler designs with narrow headlights and an equally short, chrome-trimmed grille. In profile, the bullet-nosed 200 is somewhat reminiscent of the Tesla Model S. This new design language should definitely help the 200 get noticed in a segment filled with hot sellers like the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord, as well as more stylish offerings like the Ford Fusion and Mazda6.
Our spies also caught up with the 200 testing in daylight and got some good shots of the interior. The instrument panel design looks similar to what is found in the Dodge Dart, including the oversized instrument gauges and possibly even the LED accent lighting. We would have to assume - and hope - this prototype is a test model due to its small touchscreen display, as Chrysler's 8.4-inch screen would look much better in its place. The center stack and console are clean with minimal buttons and knobs, but we do see a rotary gear selector, which may confirm reports from last year that suggested the 200 will use a nine-speed automatic transmission to help hit 38 miles per gallon on the highway.

Chrysler recalling over 200k vehicles across its brands

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

With more than 200,000 units across six separate recalls and almost all of its brands, it appears that Chrysler has officially jumped headfirst into the recall pool this month. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued three official recalls for the automaker, and The Detroit News is reporting that the automaker itself has announced three more.
The biggest of the recalls applies to about 120,000 Dodge Charger, Dodge Challenger and Chrysler 300 models for 2011 and 2012 due to faulty wiring harnesses for the seat-mounted side airbags, which could lead to these airbags not deploying in the event of a crash. A little more than 60,000 two-wheel-drive versions of the 2007-2008 Dodge Nitro and 2008 Jeep Liberty SUVs are being recalled due to a heat shield that could cause the driveshaft to break, which if that isn't bad on its own, could then hit underneath where the airbag sensor is mounted, causing the airbags to deploy. Wrapping up NHTSA's recall notices, about 20,000 Jeep Patriot and Jeep Compass models for 2012 are also being recalled due to a problem with the fuel tank transfer tube that could lead to the vehicle stalling. The LX car recall campaign is going into effect this month, while the other two will start next month - all three notices are posted below.
In addition to the official NHTSA recalls, The Detroit News is also reporting that Chrysler is recalling more than 16,000 Ram trucks and a small number of Dodge Dart sedans. Around 6,500 2013 Ram 1500 trucks will be recalled due to an improper adjustment of the parking brake cable from the factory, while 7,000 Cummins-powered 2013 Ram Heavy Duty trucks are being recalled due to an engine cover that does not have as much heat resistance as it is supposed to. Finally, a total of 46 Dodge Dart sedans are being recalled due to a problem with the brake calipers and/or parking brake.

GM, Chrysler bailouts saved 2.6 million jobs

Tue, 10 Dec 2013


The Center for Automotive Research (CAR) has been studying the effects of the General Motors and Chrysler bailouts in 2009. Now that the US Treasury has officially sold off the rest of its stake in GM (and Chrysler has already paid back its loan), CAR has released its study on the effects of the bailout with this concluding note: "CAR is confident that in the years ahead, this peacetime intervention in the private sector by the US government will be seen as one of the most successful in US economic history."
Big words, for sure, but there's plenty of evidence to back up the claim. Bailing out GM alone saved 1.2-million jobs. If both GM and Chrysler hadn't been bailed out, US employment would have been reduced by 2.631-million jobs in 2009 and another 1.519-million jobs in 2010, according to the study. If both automakers were allowed to fail, personal income in the US would have decreased by $173.5 billion in 2009 and $110.9 billion in 2010. Instead, the study found that $284.4 billion of personal income was saved by the bailouts.
