1965 Chrysler 300 4-door Hardtop with the following features:
6.3L, 383 ci V8
4 barrel carb
Optional 3-speed Automatic
Engine and Trans are original to the car
Two-tone black and burgundy paint scheme
New black interior over original seats
Limo-Tinted windows
Very reliable


The car is pretty much all original. It has not been restored, but it is in very clean shape and runs well. One of the things that originally attracted me to the car was that it was pretty much stock all around, even down to the original hubcaps and rim size. It strikes quite a pose on the road and has always elicited positive comments from folks who see it.

I've taken it on multiple 300+mile day trips and have gotten 15 miles per gallon on those rides. I've also always used lead additive with full tanks. Most recently, I added new shocks and had the brakes done. (Drum) She's also had some transmission work and a few oil changes in addition to a full tune-up with new plugs, etc.

The car has about 7 small spots of rust and maybe 4 small paint chips, but other than that the body is in great shape... especially considering she's 49+ years old. She's capable of being a daily driver and I've been driving her regularly for over two years.

Overall condition, given her age and the fact that she's unrestored, is VERY good.

I purchased this car from a man who claimed to be the second owner.  According to him, it was stored in a barn in Wisconsin from 1994-2009 on blocks.  He purchased it in 2009, gave it a new paint job, restored the interior, did some other minor work on it and put it back on the road.

Buyer must handle all transportation logistics and payments but I will work with your shipper to make the process go as easy as possible.  I can hold the car following sale but will need it paid for, in full and cleared, before title is transferred and car is released.

Condition Description:

This car can be driven on a daily basis and for the age, it's in very good condition.  There is very little-to-no rust on the car except for 6-7 small spots on the body along with 3-4 paint chips.  The chrome rear bumper has some small areas of rust as well.  The inside of the trunk is missing carpet but shows NO rust areas or holes.  There is no jack or spare tire with this car.  The two rear doors need new window regulators and the rear windows need some minor adjustment but all of the glass is in perfect order.  The dashboard has one crack in it.  There is a passenger side mirror that is not original and should be removed.  The car was barn kept for 15+ years and stored properly at the time.  I've replaced shocks, had brake work done, and other minor repairs.  Otherwise, the car runs well and strong.  We've taken it on numerous 300+ mile trips over the years with no issues.  We've always used high octane fuel with lead additive.  The gas gauge is not always reliable!

The large print giveth and small print taketh away:  We reserve the right to end the auction early in line with eBay policies, as it is also for sale locally.  Notice to international buyers:  You are responsible for ALL logistics and shipping costs.  I am not prepared to do anything more than have your shipper pick up the vehicle after all payments have cleared and title has been transferred.

Chrysler investigating complaints of vehicles with faulty power modules

Sun, 24 Aug 2014

Chrysler owners are hopping mad after experiencing a series of electrical gremlins in some of the company's vehicles. Issues range from mere annoyances - windows rolling down and radios turning off of their own accord - to serious safety issues, with headlights that randomly shut off at night and cars that stall and refuse to start.
The issues are being blamed on the total integrated power module, which can cost up to $1,000 for customers to replace. This, of course, has led to a hefty batch of complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, with 240 owners expressing their displeasure so far. Another site, CarComplaints.com, has registered over 300 complaints relating to the 2010 to 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango, alone, according to The New York Times.
Chrysler has acknowledged that it's investigating the complaints and is analyzing the faulty TIPMs, but that isn't quite enough for customers of the affected vehicles. The newspaper has snagged a few of the more harrowing tales with the electrically challenged Chrysler products, culled from the NHTSA complaints.

NHTSA investigating Chrysler for airbags, ignition switches

Wed, 18 Jun 2014

Chrysler is being targeted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in a pair of actions that focus on over 1.2 million Jeeps, minivans and crossovers.
The first is a "preliminary investigation" that focuses on an airbag issue afflicting the Jeep Commander built in model years 2006 and 2007 and Grand Cherokee from 2005 to 2006. In total, 700,000 vehicles could potentially be affected. It's not entirely clear what the airbag issue is, with The Detroit Free Press simply stating that the restraint systems in the affected Jeeps may be "faulty."
The other investigation is what's called a "recall query" and it covers a problem that General Motors should be familiar with. In this case, there could be a problem with the ignition switches of 525,000 vehicles, ranging from 2008 to 2010 Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans, to the 2008 to 2010 Dodge Journey crossover. Again, it's not entirely clear what sort of behavior prompted the 32 complaints that NHTSA has received on these vehicles.

eBay Find of the Day: 1979 Chrysler ETV-1 electric car prototype

Mon, 27 Jan 2014

Electric cars may be reaching their time in the sun with successes like the Tesla Model S, but the basic concept goes back to practically beginning of motoring. EVs also saw a brief renaissance in the 1970s when automakers were trying find a way around rising fuel prices. This 1979 Chrysler ETV-1 concept for sale on eBay Motors is a great example from that era.
Built in 1979, designers hoped the ETV-1 would preview what an electric car would look like in 1985. The base price was slated to start at $6,400, or the rough equivalent of $20,536, which seems like an optimistic price. General Electric created the ETV-1's powertrain, and Chrysler was in charge of styling. At the time, the Department of Energy called it "the first advanced four-passenger subcompact experimental electric car."
While it seems ancient compared to today's EVs, the ETV-1 featured regenerative braking and a computer-controlled electric motor. Chrysler reported a 100-mile range at 45 miles per hour with two passengers in the car. The range fell to 75 miles with four passengers. Acceleration was not brisk with Chrysler claiming the run to 30 mph in 9 seconds. Power was stored in 18 lead-acid batteries, and a full charge took 10 hours from a home outlet.
