1961 Chrysler Newport 2door hardtop This is a long time COLORADO car, so its not all rusted out like a back-east car. The trunk was rusted out but I have patched in a rock solid trunk floor from a donor car (not thin and floppy like the patch panels) The floors are good in the back seat and passenger areas. The drivers area floor is rusted through, but I have a new patch panel that comes with. There is some collision damage (just scrape, not deep) on the right side, with some old bondo on it, there is still some dentage there. There is a rust though area near the left headlight that looks like a thin line about 3 inches long. The trim is good, some clips are loose, pot metal pieces are good compared to whats out there. The front seat is ok for a guy, but you wouldn’t sit your date on it. The back seat is out, springs good, needs recover. The astrodome dash lights up in blue luminescent, but the sppedo does not work. Maybe the cable? All glass is good, with only a small crack in the corner of the right rear side glass, and some minor wiper wear in the front. All windows regulate well. Brakes are all new with a Master kit from Kanter, master cylinder , hoses, 6 wheel cyliners and new shoes. The car has a new fuel tank, sending unit and pump. The car has original 361, which came with a 2bbl. I have converted to a 4bbl with period correct Mopar parts. She runs and drives, and with the nice patina, makes a beautiful head-turning rat rod, but its also a super solid platform for a restoration or custom. Smokes a little on startup, but smooths out after a while. The tranny looses fluid when sitting. After the level is back up, she shifts well and does not slip. The Wheels and tires are borrowed from another car. They are NOT included in this sale. They are new 15 x 7 Wheel Vintiques, with new 205/70 in front and 225/70 in back. You can buy them as an add-on for an extra $1000, or I will fit the car with “roller” tires, suitable for transport, but not for street use. Last year for Chrysler BIG FINS. This is your chance! Happy Independence Day! roysvintagecars Roy 303-988-0391 ps. I will not reveal the reserve price before auction close. |

A closer look at the 2015 Chrysler 200
Fri, 17 Jan 2014When the doors of the Detroit Auto Show open to the public tomorrow, there's no doubt that the Chevy, BMW and Lexus booths will attract plenty of foot traffic with flashy sports cars. But when it comes to relevance as it relates to sales volume and in-market shoppers, the 2015 Chrysler 200 could end up being one of the more important introductions from the show. Positioned in the highly competitive midsize sedan segment, Chrysler has quite the challenge ahead of it, so we asked Andy Love, product chief of the 200, to give us a closer look at the new sedan to see how it will stack up against cars like the Toyota Camry, Ford Fusion and Honda Accord.
All of the pertinent information about the new 200 was revealed during the on-stage introduction, but Love gave us a first-hand look at the sedan's more intricate details. This includes some of the exterior design elements such as the wide use of LED exterior lighting and the strategic placement of the side marker lights, and even interior cues like electronic shifter, which allowed for extra storage space in the center console. Aside from the name, the 2015 200 started from scratch riding on a similar platform as the Dodge Dart and Jeep Cherokee, based on the Alfa Romeo Giulietta.
Scroll down to watch Love talk us through the 2015 Chrysler 200, and you can find more information about it at our original post from earlier in the week.
Bob Dylan to star in Chrysler Super Bowl spot [w/videos]
Thu, 30 Jan 2014Billboard 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 trademark suggest new Rebel in the family
Mon, 05 May 2014Trademark filings can be a first alert in the auto industry that something is coming. For example, Lamborghini trademarked Aventador before we saw its supercar, and Chevrolet did the same thing with Z28. Other times, an automaker files to protect a name and never does anything with it. Chrysler is dredging up a brand from the past by filing a US request for "Rebel." The name is specifically for "motor vehicles, namely automobiles, trucks, vans, sport utility vehicles and structural parts therefor," according to Ignitionist quoting the filing.
In the US, Rebel was previously used on some American Motors Corporation models. It even spawned a muscle car version called the Machine (pictured above). Chrysler eventually bought AMC when it bowed out of the auto industry in 1987.
Chrysler's plans for the name are a complete mystery at the moment. Although, it probably won't be a midsize sedan like the original. That just seems too unlikely given the brand's current, established lineup. Rebel seems like a fantastic name for the performance trim of a vehicle, though. The Jeep Renegade Rebel has a nice ring to it, and a Ram 1500 Rebel pickup could also work. We're going to have to wait and see what's in store for the moniker. Let us know in Comments what model you think would fit the Rebel name.
