Affordable Classic - 1986 Chrysler Lebaron K-car Convertible on 2040-cars
Bowling Green, Ohio, United States
|
This 1986 Chrysler LeBaron Mark Cross edition convertible is a true survivor that has spent the last 28 years being very gently driven and cared for. It was delivered to its original owner - a prominent Toledo businessman - at Valiton Motors of Toledo, Ohio on August 1 of that same year and was used primarily by his socialite wife in the summer months. The body of the car is straight and clean and has never been rusted. The only exception is some very slight bubbles that are just starting to form in the paint on the trunk lid by the LeBaron badge (shown in pictures). It wears its original paint, which is in excellent condition with a lot of lustre and shine to it. The car is light cream in color with a tan pinstripe and a tan convertible top. The top is in good condition overall. The motor work and the top raises and lowers well. The stitching that surrounds the rear window is beginning to come undone because of the age of the threads and will need to be restitched (shown in pictures). The convertible boot is in the trunk of the car and is in perfect condition. The original wire wheels are in excellent condition and the white wall tires have good tread life. The brakes are in great working condition on the car. All of the lights and gauges in the car work. The car has cream-colored Mark Cross leather interior with a slightly darker tan dash. The leather seats are the most comfortable car seats I have ever sat in. There are no rips or tears in the leather, but there is some slight cracking to the leather, consistent with the age of the seats and the quality of the leather that was used in cars of the 1980s. The dash has no cracks or blemishes. The interior of the car is immaculately clean - the carpeting, the floor mats, the dash and the seats. It has a power driver's seat that is full working order. The AM/FM stereo/ cassette works, as does the cruise control. As is often the case with cars of this vintage, the air conditioning does not blow cold as a result of having lost its charge. But who cares... this is a convertible... it was made for top-down driving. The original 2.2L Turbo engine is in good shape and has been checked by the local Chrysler dealership. The carburetor was recently cleaned and they found everything else, including the turbocharger, to be in good working order. The car starts right up and it does not leak and smoke. The transmission is in great shape. It shifts right into gear and has no clunking, slipping, or any other indications of wear. The brakes are in good condition and work well. The tires still have good tread life. I just replaced the front axles on the car, which had worn from age. This is a wonderful car in great condition and a beautiful example of the car that saved Chrysler. I've tried to be honest about any issues that the car has, and to document them with photos here in the listing. I'd be happy to answer any questions and will consider all fair and reasonable offers for the car. That it has been garage-kept its entire life will come as no surprise to anyone who sees it in person.

UAW urging Chrysler to sell shares to investors
Thu, 10 Jan 2013The United Auto Workers union is pushing Chrysler to sell 16.6 percent of its stock to investors in an attempt to establish the value of the shares. The UAW is currently locked in a lawsuit with Chrysler parent company Fiat over how much the Italian automaker should pay to buy shares from the trust fund. Last year, Fiat told the trust it intended to exercise its right to purchase 3.3 percent of the union's shares at issue. But the union contended the 54,154 shares were worth closer to $381 million instead of the $155 million Fiat offered.
Currently, the UAW owns 41.5 percent of Chrysler while Fiat holds 58.5 percent of the company. Currently, it's unclear whether the UAW could force Chrysler to put the shares on the open market. Doing so would be the first step toward a much-anticipated initial public offering. Chrysler has said it will comply with its shareholders agreement, and Fiat has echoed that tune. According to The Detroit Free Press, the UAW Retiree Medical Benefits Trust has declined to comment on the situation.
Editors' Picks March 2021 | Ford Mustang Mach-E, Polestar 2, Land Rover Defender and more
Thu, Apr 8 2021The month of March was unofficial minivan month here at Autoblog. We drove all of them but the Kia Carnival, but don’t worry, you wonÂ’t have to wait much longer to read that review. Among all the family-toting machines, we drove some more exciting vehicles including the Land Rover Defender and a pair of up-and-coming EVs. It was a month of excellent cars, meaning that this monthÂ’s litter of EditorsÂ’ Picks is stacked. In case you missed FebruaryÂ’s picks, hereÂ’s a quick refresher on whatÂ’s going on here. We rate all the new cars we drive with a 1-10 score. Cars that are exemplary or stand out in their respective segments get EditorsÂ’ Pick status. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. The list that youÂ’ll find below consists of every car we rated in March that earned the honor of being an EditorsÂ’ Pick. 2021 Ford Bronco Sport 2021 Ford Bronco Sport First Edition View 32 Photos Quick take: Ford's baby Bronco is an authentic foil to the big Bronco 2-Door and 4-Door. It brings rugged styling, better-than-average off-road capability and thoughtful utility features to a generic segment of cars. Score: 8 What it competes with: Jeep Compass, Jeep Cherokee, Mazda CX-30, Subaru Crosstrek, Kia Seltos, Chevrolet Trailblazer Pros: Stellar design, excellent off-road, clever interior details throughout Cons: Pricier than most, average transmission, underwhelming interior quality and ambiance in lowest trims From the editors: Road Test Editor Zac Palmer — “I genuinely enjoy driving this cute crossover. It feels like a mini truck on the road, and Ford admirably translated the design from its big Bronco over to this Escape-based crossover. News Editor Joel Stocksdale — "The Bronco Sport isn't perfect, the transmission could use some work, and it's a little bumpy, but it's a characterful little thing with loads of style, great visibility and space, and impressive capabilities on and off road in the powerful Badlands form." In-depth analysis: 2021 Ford Bronco Sport Review | Bronco for the masses  2021 Land Rover Defender 2021 Land Rover Defender 110 View 64 Photos Quick take: The Land Rover Defender provides everything you'd hope for in a modern Land Rover: superlative off-road capability, surprisingly plush on-road demeanor, abundant interior space and abundant character. The base four-cylinder is likely all you'll need and lower trim levels provide more than enough equipment.
2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat revealed [UPDATE]
Wed, 13 Aug 2014Almost immediately after we drove the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, we began wondering: what's next? Pumping 707 horsepower into the Challenger seemed so crazy - and so intoxicating - we just assumed that Dodge would try that trick again.
Rumors swirled about a Charger Hellcat. Frankly it makes even more sense than the Challenger version. The Charger is a bigger car, and Dodge has never been shy about dropping monster engines under its hood. Hell (cat), we've seen Charger mules running around town that appeared to be the super sedan.
And finally, it's here. The 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat was revealed today at a preview event near Detroit, and it will be a centerpiece of the Chrysler display this weekend at the Woodward Dream Cruise.
