FEEDBACK !!! if you cant take 10 min to read thru our feedback on the cars we have sold here over the last 10 yrs, then you also shouldnt be bidding on our auctions. Ebay offers our Feedback rating for a reason,... try trusting it. BRIEF DESCRIPTION: This is a cool piece of American car culture and history. In the mid 70s with the gas crunch in full effect, the big 3 where still trying to give car buyers large luxury cars and no one wanted to drop off the radar with not having such a vehicle available. This is Chryslers last hurrah to offer a giant, plush classy luxury car you could almost live in :) It shows just over 30k on the odometer, and the original owner we got it from swears its original miles. And looking at the cars overall condition (things like wear on the pedals, original spare tire in trunk, the amt of OEM clamps and Mopar marked hoses under the hood) I tend to easily believe his info. This car starts, runs and drives great. Most everything does work still on the car, but a few things that come to mind are not all the PW go work. They try to move, but just move a bit and stop. Speedo works, but cable is dry, it bounces alot. PDL not working. Think thats it. Headlights/radio/P seats/ and more are currently working fine. A/C blows, but its not cold.
DONT BID UNLESS YOU HAVE THE FUNDS IN HAND BUILD ANYWAY YOU WANT, NO HARM NO FOUL ! Excellent Investment / Clean Clear Arizona Title IF you bid, also please email us thru ebay to let us know you are bidding on the car, if you dont we may cancel your bid ! LOW FAIR RESERVE !!!
DRIVETRAIN: factory 440 4v, some of the last of the factory big block era, and the power feels great. Motor runs well, trans shifts smooth and works great. Pop the hood and its very original and unmolested. Almost a time capsule. Dont want to oversell it, but the car speaks for itself. INTERIOR: take a look at the pics, the interior is in amazing shape from front to back. The car was garaged almost its whole life staying out of the AZ sun and heat. All the gauges seem to work fine, radio works too. Seats cushions and upholstery are in amazing shape for being a 74 model. Nice color too. Really only thing to report is, glove box doesnt want to stay latched and dr side front lower kick panel missing. Its like sitting on your couch in your living room, pile in a family of 6 in this beast and take it to the next cruise nite !
EXTERIOR:the body very straight for its age, but this is a 90% rust FREE survivor. Original sheetmetal the best I can tell from 1974, I believe the paint is also still all original. In areas the paint is getting thin, but show some signs of small nicks and dings along the doors some. Lots of what I call factory orange peel too. Chrome on the bumpers is amazing. The current wheel covers are not original, but look okay. Rust or rot I should say is pretty much non existent on the body. Much nicer by comparison to most Mopars this old living on the Eastcoast. Look underneath and no signs of rot. A fair amt of surface rust, thats about it. Someone added a trailer hitch many yrs ago. Hide A way headlights work great as do rest of the lights and lenses in great shape. Even the reverse lights work. Only thing worth mentioning is the factory vinyl top is showing some wear after 40+ yrs and back by the rear window there is mild rust from what I can tell in a small area near the bottom Easily not a deal breaker but needs to be mentioned.
SUSPENSION:the suspension looks normal from what I can see Just your basic factory front torsion set up, rear shocks are Blue and could be original. No wacky mods and surface rust at best. Makes coming apart a breeze. Glides down the road like a 70s luxury car was built to. Brakes could prob be bleed and Im going to try to do that this week.

There you go, probably The BEST represented Mopars on Ebay. Shows you all the good as well as any bad. We put a lot of time and effort in marketing our cars. People wait months for a car this solid to come up for sale and even if you have to pay shipping to your area, it still beats paying a body shop to hopefully fix a rusty car for weeks on end. Having as much as the original steel on a non restored car these speaks volumes. Survivors are getting harder to find ! Also, if you buy a car thats been "restored", who knows what surprises are hidden under new paint or thick undercoating. People are flipping cars all the time when most of the jobs are fast, for a quick buck and quality suffers.
Email us with ANY questions before you bid please
Our Impeccable FEEDBACK speaks for itself. We show you as much feasibly possible via pics. Dont let auctions withlittle to no pics try to fool you. If they cant take the time to take pics of areas under the car being offered, maybe its not the best car to buy long distance. With other auctions, you really dont know what to expect until you take the car apart. While we go over our cars with great pics to help making your decision easier. Along with ANY other questions you may have. Email me for a quote for shipping.
