A super daily driver for sale! Fantastic mechanically sound vehicle! Starts and runs every time! I believe I am the third owner and have invested a ton of time and love into this car. Hate to see her go but with three kids I no longer have room for them all in the car!
THINGS THAT NEED ATTENTION:
- Front end needs repair. I backed into her with my truck one dark morning! Estimate is about $900 in work.
- AC system works but needs a new belt from the compressor to the fan.
- Some of the minor electrical systems are non-working. Radio has a loose wire, electric antennae and power windows need new wiring. All other electrical systems work
- Drivers side seat has a split along seam - has been re-sewn
- Will need new tires eventually
- Odometer stopped working right after I purchased the vehicle. Estimate about 100,000 on her. Bought it with 85,000. Drive her 2-4 times a week to work and back which is about a 12 mile round trip.
THINGS I HAVE DONE:
- New soft top
- New exhaust system
- New clutch and brake reservoir/master cylinder
- New brakes
A great car for someone who wants to buy a great project car that is mechanically sound!

Chrysler appoints new heads of Alfa Romeo and Ram
Mon, 18 Aug 2014Chrysler has announced to two key appointments to its senior leadership, both of them taking immediate effect. First up is Reid Bigland, who has been named head of the Alfa Romeo brand for North America. Bigland has served until now as head of the Ram Truck brand, a portfolio he now hands over to Robert Hegbloom, who had served until now as its director.
As a result of the appointments, both Bigland and Hegbloom will take up seats on Chrysler's NAFTA Leadership Team, and Bigland will also join the Fiat Chrysler Group Executive Council - the highest decision-making body in the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles empire.
As per Sergio Marchionne's leadership style, Bigland will continue to serve in two major capacities, maintaining his role as president and CEO of Chrysler Canada. Other senior executives who hold multiple key portfolios include Harald Wester (who serves as the group's Chief Technology Officer and also overseas Alfa Romeo, Maserati and Abarth), Olivier Francois (group Chief Marketing Officer and head of the Fiat brand) and Michael Manley (head of the Asia-Pacific region and the Jeep brand).
Marchionne offers belated apology for 'wop engine' comment
Wed, 22 May 2013Automotive News reports Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has issued a written apology for his comments regarding his decision to stick with an Italian engine for the upcoming Alfa Romeo 4C. As you may recall, back in January, Marchionne was quoted as saying, "I cannot come up with a schlock product, I just won't. I won't put an American engine into that car. With all due respect to my American friends, it has to be a wop engine." The CEO penned an apology to the Italian American ONE VOICE Coalition for using the racial epithet, saying that he made the comment in jest. Marchionne also said he realizes his remarks were unacceptable.
ONE VOICE, an organization aimed at fighting discrimination and stereotyping of Italian Americans, thanked Marchionne, Chrysler and Fiat for the apology. Marchionne is an Italian-born Canadian citizen, and he's gotten in trouble for other comments in the past. In 2011, he called high interest rates Chrysler was paying to the Canadian government "shyster rates." He apologized a day later.
