Vehicle Description
1977 Chrysler Cordoba
De Plaane Boz, De Plane!! Cue the Ottmar Liebert guitar music and
have Ricardo Montalban on his spot! Action!! C�rdoba also spelled
Cordova in English, is a city in Andalusia, southern Spain, and the
capital of the province of C�rdoba.
Who can forget that wonderful "Spanich" rrrroll of the tongue by
actor Rrricardo Montelban and his infamous Chrysler Cordoba
commercials! And now for consignment that famous car made famous by
the famous actor and his use of the words "Corinthian Leather". Our
first Cordoba! to grace our "pasillos sagrados". This car also has
just 11,306 original miles and it shows!
Exterior
1977 brought us the large midsize car meant to save on gas yet
still provide comfort for the family to be transported in comfort.
So they came up with the Cordoba with its leading edge round
headlights and smaller round running turn signal lights flanking
the larger headlight. A central chrome encased vertical ribbed
grille in V form is in on, and a nice corresponding bumper below.
Formal Black Sunfire Metallic (and it has fairly large flakes)
adorns this car with a few faults, but overall nicety has been
retained. Shiny trimmings for the wheel wells and rockers and a tan
vinyl "landau top" complete with opera window in on the rear third
of the roof. A trunk with room for all the luggage and then some is
under the large long rear deck. On either side are rectangle
taillights and below a shiny chrome bumper to cradle the taillights
and frame the bottom of the trunk. Polished 15-inch Chrysler road
wheels are on all 4 corners and wrapped in 215/75-R15's all
around.
Interior
Wait for it.....Wait for it....Corrrrrinthian Leather (swoon and a
faint to the couch!) wrapped in light gold Corinthian Leather and
vinyl adorn the interior surfaces of this classic. Front high back
buttoned and tufted buckets sit in front of the original dash setup
and a similar buttoned and tufted rear bench is stretching across
the back from cathedral window to cathedral window. 1977 adornments
like an 8-track player, cruise control, power windows, and power
locks. All this in a sea of gold carpeting, and a smooth one-piece
headliner also in gold. Certainly, all that glitters it is.! Hay
oro en ellos colinas!!
Drivetrain
Looking it just drove off the showroom floor this all clean and
buttoned up 400ci V8 with its single 4-barrel carb atop and A727
Torqueflite transmission on back, and a 9.75 inch 3.21 gear rear
axle is ripe for the picking. Very nicely detailed and preserved.
"In a word...seemply beeeeuteeful!
Undercarriage
Some surface rust on the usual suspects like the suspension and
driveshaft, but otherwise looking just great. Torsion bar
suspension for the front, and leaf springs for the rear along with
power disc brakes on front and power drums for the back and a nice
solid exhaust, take the wheel and drive to the coast Ricardo!
Drive-Ability
A quick starter and inside was luxurious in the tufted and buttoned
Corinthian Leather..I just love saying that..Corinthian
Leather...but i digress to the test track where she lumbered around
turns with that cushy 1977 ride, nice smooth acceleration, and bias
free panic stopping. I noticed the drivers window is off track, and
the wipers are currently in op.
Always garaged, 11K original miles, plenty of receipts to back
everything up, we have a unique classic that will be your with a
roll of the tongue and a roll of cash. Gracias Ricardo
Montelban.
