Hello, this auction is for a "B" titled 1968 Imperial Crown four door hardtop.
It was purchase from the original owners family in 1996 and he was a military man. The title is branded "Out of Country" because he used this car in the Sudan.
It was built for export and he brought it home with him.
It s in very good, original condition- Body, Chrome, Interior, Stainless trim, Glass, Top. The tires are also very good. There is no body work that we are aware of and the entire outside of the car has minimal wear, which is appropriate to it's 47,000 original miles. It is equipped with a 440 cu inch motor and coupled to a 727 transmission. It may or may not have a posi-traction rear. It does have a factory type trailer hitch. The rugs are good in the iterior as well as in the trunk. There is an original triple stripe whitewall tire in the trunk.
The car has been owned by me since 1995 or 1996 and was purchased from the owners estate. The car was placed into storage when I bought it. At that time it was running a little rough and in need of a carburator rebuild. I started the car this week and it does need the carb replaced or rebuilt as it starts, stalls and sometimes back fires. The gas has been treated over the years with STABIL but it is probably fouled and suspect of the poor running. It will start and tries to idle but will stall if not given a little pressure on the gas pedal.
The two rear power windows are stuck in the closed posistion and the power antenna activates but doesn't raise. I do ot know if the air conditioning needs a charge or not. The car is equipped with cruise control/auto pilot but has not been tested.
This car was purchased for $5000,00 and not driven by me, it was put into storage and not used so it is in need of some basic CPR to run and operate as it should.
It is being sold 100% AS IS.

New UAW boss Williams talks tough, vows 'no more concessions'
Sun, 08 Jun 2014Dennis Williams, the newly elected president of the UAW, had some tough words for American automakers in his inauguration speech at the 2014 UAW Convention, striking down the possibility of any additional concessions from the 400,000-strong union.
"No more concessions. We are tired of it. Enough is enough," Williams said during his speech. UAW employees have not received a raise in nearly 10 years, according to Reuters.
Considering the recent strong results for Ford, Chrysler and General Motors, the union's demands are likely to carry a bit more weight in next year's negotiations. And considering Williams' tough stance, we could be in for some fireworks once negotiations commence.
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.
Chrysler killing off the 200 Convertible, Dodge Avenger
Sun, 23 Feb 2014When Chrysler rolled out the first-generation 200 to replace the Sebring range in 2010, it included replacements for both the sedan and the convertible. The Sebring Coupe, however, was left out of the mix. And now that the second-generation Chrysler 200 is descending upon us, Auburn Hills is paring things down even further. But this time, it's the convertible that reportedly isn't making the cut. Shame, too, since the rendering above shows what could have been quite an attractive droptop.
As our compatriots at Edmunds point out, sales of the convertible model accounted for less than five percent of overall Chrysler 200 sales, and at those numbers, the considerable cost of engineering a new drop-top couldn't be justified. With the Toyota Camry Solara and Volkswagen Eos also gone from the market (well, the VW isn't gone quite yet), the discontinuation of the Chrysler 200 Convertible leaves the affordable convertible segment largely to the sportier likes of the Ford Mustang and Chevy Camaro and smaller European offerings like the Mini Cooper and VW Beetle.
The Chrysler 200 Convertible isn't the only derivative being left behind with the new model: so too is the Dodge Avenger. That will leave a glaring hole in the Dodge lineup, with nothing to bridge the gap between the compact Dart and the larger Charger. Whether the Dodge brand has any plans to replace the Avenger with another model, not to be based on the 200, remains to be seen.
