The first straight 6 Chrysler cars came out in 1924.  The company formed from Maxwell and Chalmers.  Chrysler was 7th place in sales in 1927. Body styles I think included two passenger roadster (w/o rumble), four passenger roadster (w/rumble), four passenger sedan/saloon, four passenger coupe, phaeton, and seven passenger limousine with divider window.  There may have been others as well.  Model 60 meant it could cruise at 60 mph all day which was considered a racing speed of a mile a minute at that time.

Driving one of these cars was like driving an automatic transmission car.  1st to 2nd gear at about 5 mph, 2nd to 3rd gear at about 10/12 mph and 3rd gear above 12 mph.

The Indy 500 pace car in 1926 was a Chrysler.  Chrysler competed with Cadillac, Lincoln, Packard and Duesenberg in the luxury car field.  

Seller packs well and ships promptly.  You will not be disappointed with this old manual.

McLaren 12C Can-Am & Historic McLaren Can-Ams at 2013 Goodwood FoS

Tue, 30 Apr 2013

It seems it was, because by November McLaren revealed the 12C Can Am was going in to limited production – just 30 units at £375,000 each – for deep-pocketed Americans to go track day racing with a 12C that weighs in at 1200kg, gets a few extra horses and 30 per cent more downforce compared to the road going 12C. So with a new track car and a 50th anniversary to celebrate in 2013, McLaren has decided it’s a good idea to take the 12C Can-Am off to play on the Goodwood hillcimb this summer at the 2013 Festival of Speed and, for added interest, take along a selection of models from their heritage collection – the ultimate McLaren racers of the 1960s and 70s – for our delight. McLaren has also given us a teaser video of the M8D Can-Am Racer (below) as a taster of what visitors to this year’s FoS can look forward too, yet another reason to get yourself down to Sussex in July.

2011 Kia Magentis / Kia Optima revealed

Mon, 22 Feb 2010

Kia has revealed the 2011 Kia Optima / Kia Magentis ahead of a reveal at the New York Motor Show in April You might reasonably expect that Kia are teasing the 2011 Kia Magentis (or Kia Optima, as it is in the US) ahead of a reveal at the Geneva Motor Show. After all, every other car maker is at it at the moment. But Kia are teasing this ahead of the next big motor show after Geneva – the 2010 New York Motor Show – which isn’t until April.
