Chrysler's MTSC training program for its dealership service department mechanics was an extraordinary set of reference booklets, POSTERS, filmstrips and teacher's guides which were created decades ago. They currently benefit people who collect and restore automotive Chrysler products of the 1940's though the 1970's. These materials were sent to each MoPar (Chrysler Products) dealer's repair department every month from 1948 through at least the late 1970's. They covered a different topic each month, and they were written to educate the simplest of minds. The booklets, called the MASTER TECHNICIANS SERVICE CONFERENCE SERVICE REFERENCE BOOKS, were about 4 inches by 6 inches, and had around 20 or 30 pages packed with LOTS of helpful information. They came five to a box, along with a stop-action filmstrip in a metal or plastic canister, a 33-13-RPM record to act as the soundtrack for the filmstrip, a POSTER for the front of the room, a teacher's guide for a senior mechanic, a set of short, pre-sharpened pencils, and a fresh needle for the record-player. This auction is for a poster from one of those sessions, and the content is intended to inform the service technicians who would be working on Chrysler Corporation cars of the era. The booklets are small and user-friendly, and they hold a massive wealth of information of interest to someone who is restoring a 1956 Imperial or a 1949 Plymouth or any other fine old MoPar. The nearly complete set is posted with permission from Chrysler on the Online Imperial Club website. If you have materials that are not posted, we would appreciate a donation of a scanned version of your item (or the actual item if you don't want it) for our online collection. The accompanying films are simple to understand, and they are a valuable resource. Many of those too are posted on the Imperial Club website (see LITERATURE --> REPAIR LITERATURE) They usually featured the gruff-voiced wooden puppet named "Tech." His role was to get the discussion going, and moving along briskly. If a car collector buys a shop manual for their car, expecting to learn all about fixing their car or giving it a good tune-up, they are not normally going to have a very easy time of it. This is because the shop-manual assumes that the reader is a mechanic who has completed the training course provided by these materials, among others. These are fantastic mid-century industrial art posters that would do well framed and/or hanging in your garage or man-area. If you are a REAL man/woman, you will frame it and hang it in the livingroom without worry about what your spouse or parents think. Possibilities for these posters are limited only by one's imagination.

Hello Chrysler, ciao Lancia?

Thu, 03 Dec 2009

Starting as early as 2011, Fiat S.p.A. may extend the Chrysler brand name to models currently sold as Lancias in Europe. Such a move would be a blow to the 103-year-old Fiat-owned automaker that many speculated would play a greater role in Europe following its parent's decision earlier this year to take control of Chrysler.

Electric wire eases closing of Corvette Stingray hatch

Tue, 12 Feb 2013

A single piece of wire makes closing the hatch on the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray easier. Tucked behind the rear fascia, the alloy wire changes shape when an electric current heats it up. The wire returns to its previous shape when it cools.

Toyota ME.WE concept

Wed, 24 Apr 2013

Toyota and leading European industrial designer Jean-Marie Massaud have developed a new electric car concept, dubbed the ME.WE.

It also had to "propose an alternative synthesis based on personal choices about vehicle architecture, lower running costs and the way the vehicle will be used".
