Street Machines is proud to present this astonishing 1982 Chrysler LeBaron Mark Cross edition convertible. The introduction of Chrysler's 1982 K-car lineup saved the automaker from bankruptcy. This example is the top-optioned offering for 1982, displaying its original paint, special leather interior, and number's matching drivetrain. This car has always been garage-kept and is in excellent condition. A 2-owner car, this 1st edition 1982 Chrysler Medallion Lebaron Mark Cross Convertible was garaged and Sunday driven by its first owner until 2010 at 25,000 miles. The 2nd owner put just over 5,000 miles on the car until our acquisition. This simply has to be one of the best original K cars in existence today, from the leather to the mechanicals and paint, outstanding car. Few of these cars remain in this kind of condition. I have no idea how many are surviving. You could order this 1st year special convertible in either Mahogany Metallic or this, the Pearl White. Enjoy our presentation and feel free to email or phone with any questions. View our 100% positive customer feedback and bid with 100% confidence. This up and coming collector car is over 32 years old and an official antique.
The exterior showcases all original body panels and paint, down to the original pinstripe down both sides of the car.
The two optional wheels available on the 1982 Chrysler were a decorate wire wheel cover and these full alloy wheels. The tires were recently replaced with new Goodyear Insignia whitewall radials all around. This is a turn-key car with all working amenities. It is in excellent mechanical and cosmetic condition.
Open the doors to luxury.
The interior displays showroom fresh and original leather interior. Everything is original in the interior down to the plush carpeting.
The Mark Cross leather upholstery is in excellent condition, very well cared for and it shows. Absolutely Gorgeous saddle leather, with extremely rare 1982 Mark Cross Chrysler factory promotional items.
The dash displays all original gauges and woodgrain trim. The instruments are functional throughout. The dash pad is as new. The speedometer lense face is excellent, the original mileage on display. The air conditioning has been recently serviced with a new line installed. It blows cold on all speeds and the heat blows hot air.
Chrysler's optional stereo system also functions as it should, providing the symphonic experience. The power antenna is also functioning as it should. We also have an un-opened original Sounds of Chrysler cassette that came with this optional stereo for 1982.
Chrysler was very proud of their new small K car platform with front wheel drive and excellent fuel economy characteristics.
Under the hood is the top-optioned for 1982 2.6 liter Mitsubishi-derived in-line 4-cylinder engine. The engine compartment is very clean, original, and detailed. The original decals and markings are intact throughout the engine. The firewall, inner fenders, and core support are excellent. This is a corrosion-free example and it shows.
The engine itself runs smoothly and is fast to start. The transmission shifts correctly and the brakes stop straight. There are no check lights or otherwise faulty illuminations to be found. We are proud of this little LeBaron. The convertible top boot is original and in excellent condition as is the original convertible top, inside and out. The plastic rear window is also clear. The paint has never been repaired or worked. It is original throughout and in remarkable condition. There are a few tiny chip touch-ups and imperfections in the paint along with some nicks in the original pinstripe. You really have to look hard for any flaws in this amazing car. It is corrosion-free underneath with factory undercoating and all original flooring and sheetmetal throughout.
The white convertible top is original, power-operated and in excellent condition.
Underneath the car, you'll find excellent original flooring throughout, never altered or repaired in any way. The suspension components are original and excellent. This car has never been involved in any kind of collision or experienced rust damage, unlike so many K cars. I wonder how many of these cars are left today?
The trunk is excellent, displaying all original carpeting, spare tire/wheel and jacking equipment.
Note the Chrysler-offered Mark Cross umbrella, also in excellent condition, never used along with the leather-bound notebook and factory documents. This car has the original owner's manual and dealer brochure as well. This gold-plated metal plaque is a vintage original piece offered by Chrysler dealers in 1982 to personalize your Mark Cross edition convertible. It is a rare find and is left blank for inscription of your choice. The adhesive backing is still in place, never removed or installed in any way.
Chysler's famed pentastar hood ornament is in excellent condition, as is the exterior brightwork (chrome) throughout this car. Cartier supplied the special jeweled hood ornament for Chrysler, the perfect compliment to the high-end Mark Cross leather interior. Mark Cross was established in 1845 and is still in business today, selling high-end leather goods.

It's official: The Detroit Three is now The Detroit Two and The Fiat Subsidiary, Chrysler. Both the Italian carmaker and The Pentastar announced the completion of cash payments and a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on future payments necessary to make the Chrysler Group a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fiat. As previously detailed, Chrysler made a cash payment of $1.9 billion and Fiat North America made a cash payment of $1.75 billion to the Voluntary Employment Benefit Association (VEBA) run by the United Auto Workers union. On top of that, Chrysler Group signed an MOU that agrees to payments of $700 million to the VEBA in four installments, the first of which was made concurrently with the other cash payments. And for you trivia mavens, the full name of the UAW is the International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America. So go impress your loved ones with that nugget after you check out the press release below.
What, you expected the "fastest muscle car ever" to help fleetwide fuel economy? Nope, don't think that's going to happen. That means Fiat Chrysler will likely to continue to languish at the bottom of the heap when it comes to fleetwide fuel economy among the largest automakers serving the US, especially as the automaker starts to sell its Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat. A few hundred Fiat 500E electric vehicles aren't going to turn the trend around. See, Chrysler has once again finished at the bottom of the list when it came to fleetwide fuel economy among automakers for 2014 model-year vehicles, according to a preliminary study by the US Environmental Protection Agency. Chrysler and Fiat had an average of 21.1 miles per gallon. That substantially lagged the overall 24.2 mpg average, but it was an increase from the company's 20.9 mpg average last year and the 20.1 mpg average two years prior. For 2014, General Motors had the second-worst fleetwide fuel economy at an even 22 mpg. Fiat Chrysler does say it's working on improving its fuel economy, according to Automotive News. The company plans on making its inline-four-cylinder and V6 engines smaller, and will sell more vehicles with eight- and nine-speed transmissions. Heck, there's even a plug-in hybrid version of the Chrysler Town & Country minivan in the works for late 2015, and the company can tout fuel-efficiency gains with the Chrysler 200 and Jeep Cherokee. We would be remiss if we didn't note that, compared to its muscle-car forefathers, the Hellcat actually performs pretty well at the pump. Last month, word got out that the 2015 Challenger Hellcat, equipped either with a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic transmission, got a combined fuel economy of 16 mpg. Heck, the automatic-tranny version got 22 mpg on the highway. And that's for a car with 707 horsepower and a 10-second quarter-mile time. Still, with the pedal floored, the car can burn a gallon and a half of fuel per minute. Ouch.
Chrysler is being targeted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in a pair of actions that focus on over 1.2 million Jeeps, minivans and crossovers. The first is a "preliminary investigation" that focuses on an airbag issue afflicting the Jeep Commander built in model years 2006 and 2007 and Grand Cherokee from 2005 to 2006. In total, 700,000 vehicles could potentially be affected. It's not entirely clear what the airbag issue is, with The Detroit Free Press simply stating that the restraint systems in the affected Jeeps may be "faulty." The other investigation is what's called a "recall query" and it covers a problem that General Motors should be familiar with. In this case, there could be a problem with the ignition switches of 525,000 vehicles, ranging from 2008 to 2010 Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans, to the 2008 to 2010 Dodge Journey crossover. Again, it's not entirely clear what sort of behavior prompted the 32 complaints that NHTSA has received on these vehicles.
