for sale

Price: US $30,000.00

Description:

Selling a 68 coronet 4 door that comes with a Chrysler Turbine Engine. Car has no rear axle, no wheels, rotted out. Now, about the engine that's included. This is a 1976-1977 vintage 7th Generation Chrysler Turbine free rotor motor. There were SEVEN made. 2 went into modified 76 Dodge Aspens, 1 in the Chrysler Lebaron concept car, and the other 4 went to Chrysler for R&D. I believe 1 of these engines is in a museum, so that would make this 1 of 3 left. This is one of the test engines, where the test probes are still intact. NASA provided technical administration & support to the Department of Energy on this program. The inside of the engine looks all complete, including the power turbine, the rotating regenerator, and all shafts, gears, etc to drive the accessory pulley and the output shaft. The front of the engine appears to have the air box missing, and not sure what else goes behind it, possibly the compressor turbine. I don't know what else is missing from the outside of the engine. This was an experimental engine, so I couldn't even begin to describe what's not there. The pulley spins freely, as does the rest of the engine, in sync. This is not seized up. This has been stored indoors for over 20 years. This could either be a project for the right person to complete it, or just to own a piece of Chrysler history. Either way, it's pretty cool! The transmission is just an empty case attached for display purposes.
I apologize to the previous bidders, where this listing was removed from the Bay for being in the wrong category, and another for incorrect amounts, and duration. So here's the proper listing for this 68 coronet along with this incredibly rare Chrysler Turbine. Thank you.
Also, this is a factory 318 coronet. This is NOT the car that Chrysler experimented earlier versions of the turbine with.
