Photos above are of the actual items you will get, they are not "stock photos." Please excuse any reflections or focus issues!
Back when Chrysler announced that they would be coming out with the PT Cruiser and I thought I would get one, I sent away for all kinds of brochures and other information about the car. You will get everything in the photos above. All of these items are in excellent, like new condition except the envelope, which shows some wear and which I am including just for the heck of it.
Details about everything you will get (starting at top left and going left to right):
a) 10-page approx. 9" x 9" square brochure on heavy cardstock paper. This is the same brochure whose cover is the second photo above, with the text "The Dream The Awakening The Execution The Realization Chrysler Cruiser" on the front. The third page is another spread from this brochure, and the fourth photo shows the fold-open back cover (folds out to the width of three pages). Really nice photos in this one.
b) The only item in this auction that's not from Chrysler is the two-page ad from the October 3, 1999, issue of Parade magazine that is at the top left of the first photo. Note that it has been folded, so it has a horizontal crease (as well as the vertical crease where the two pages came together).
c) The first brochure in the second row is the coolest thing in this group. It is folded out to three times its width in the first photo. On the third page is a 3-D lenticular image of the PT Cruiser's "rear suspension with Watt's linkage." Tilting it makes it look as if the axle is moving up and down. Really neat! This brochure is one continuous sheet of card stock that can fold out to five times its width. The fifth photo above shows the lenticular page along with the cover folded in. On the cover is an envelope of "Technical Information" -- a 12-page booklet called the "2001 PT Cruiser Product Information Guide Prepared by DaimlerChrysler Platform Team Planners, Engineers, Designers and Developers."
d) Just under that brochure is the one that says "Chrysler PT Cruiser" and shows a front, left and right view of the car. This is an eight-page approximately 8" x 8" cardstock brochure. The coolest thing about it is that when you open it (see photo six above), there's an actual 1999 penny on the left page next to the text "A penny for your thoughts about PT Cruiser." On the right page are the words "What do you think the price of the new PT Cruiser will be" over an image of a calculator with a scratch-off area (it has NOT been scratched off, it is still completely intact) with the text "Use your penny to scratch off the MSRP space on the calculator above." The seventh and eighth photos above are more two-page spreads from this brochure.
e) The second brochure in the bottom row of the first photo above is the same one that is shown in close-up in the ninth photo. That image actually is on the back of the brochure, which measures approx. 8.5" x 5.5" and folds out to three times its width. The front cover is the tenth photo above, with the text "Your grip tightens. Your pulse races. Your adrenaline surges. And that's just in the parking lot." The 11th photo shows this brochure unfolded all the way.
f) The silver-color envelope shows some wear, but I'm throwing it in just because, why not?
g) The brochure at bottom right of the first photo is really the nicest thing in this auction, too bad I ran out of free eBay photos! The 12th photo above shows its open back cover, showing all of the exterior and interior colors available on 2000 year Chryslers. This 36-page brochure on nice heavy paper stock has info about all of the Chrysler cars that year (the 300M, the LHS, the Concorde, the Cirrus, the Sebring Convertible, the Sebring Coupe, the Town & Country, the Voyager and the 2001 PT Cruiser). Also includes a separate card about the Chrysler Java. Nice!
Any questions, just ask!
Another great auction, from a smoke-free, pet-free home!

INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS:
Note that eBay adds a sometimes substantial premium to the price of international shipping. I do not get any of that money -- I only get exactly the same amount that a US bidder would pay, and eBay keeps the rest. So if the shipping price seems high, don't blame me!
Good luck!
