Low Miles Survivor Chrysler Lebaron Mark Cross Town&country Turbo Station Wagon on 2040-cars
Upper Marlboro, Maryland, United States
This preserved survivor 1987 Chrysler LeBaron Town&Country station wagon is the ultimate 1980s retro-mobile! Super luxurious and comfortable with its Mark Cross leather seats, deep carpeting, power driver seat, AM/FM/Cassette, super 1980s status with its wood trim in excellent condition, white walls and wire wheel covers, and hood ornament, fun and fast to drive with its turbo engine and front wheel drive, and yet practical with room in the wagon to bring the picnic to the next car show! The LeBaron looks, runs, and drives great. The over the top Mark Cross leather interior is in amazing condition. The seats and door panels show very little wear; the headliner is just a few years old (no sagging headliner here!), there are no cracks or fading in the dash. The power drivers seat is very comfortable and works great; all power windows work, power locks work, and the AMFM radio works (I have never used the cassette player). With the tilt wheel and the power seat, it is a smooth and comfortable ride! And for the ultimate in 1980s retro mobile show, the period cell phone (remember they were called 'car phones') is on a stand facing the rear seat passenger! The phone appears to have been installed when the car was purchased new, and the original cell phone owners manual is included. The only notable cosmetic item is a broken plastic trim piece at the drivers seat lower side by the seat controls; it is barely noticeable even when pointed out, and in now way affects the seat or seat mechanism. The power rear view mirrors do not work. The really cool period digital dash display works great and includes full instrumentation, which shows that this LeBaron is in great running condition, as gages work showing the oil pressure, temperature, and alternator are all performing in good operating ranges. Mechanically, the LeBaron starts right up, sounds great, and is very quick. Brakes work fine, the transmission shifts smoothly into and through gears, steering feels fine and it makes no unusual noises. Even the cruise control works! The air conditioning comes on, but blows only moderately cool. The LeBaron has largely been stored for the last few years, always indoors, and started periodically. I have taken it on short drives over the last several weeks, and it has started, run, driven, and braked great, but I would recommend changing fluids and inspecting the car before taking it on a longer trip. The body on this LeBaron is in excellent condition, I can see absolutely no rust anywhere. The wood is overall in excellent condition, probably better than any other period LeBaron woody that I have seen. The LeBaron has had some minor body work to the front bumper and hood at some point in the past, and the paint on the hood has some minor and hard to see checking. The wood trim panels on the left front fender and left front door have some minor damage (see photos) but the rest of the wood is really in amazing condition, without the fading and yellowing that is on almost all of these woody wagons, and with only very minor wear or chips. The shiny aluminum trim around the windows is in excellent, shiny condition, again this is almost always somewhat faded but on this car it looks great. The roof rack is also in great condition, and has its tie down attachments. Finally, the LeBaron has a set of new old stock wire wheel covers, all in excellent condition, without curb rash or deterioration. I only put the new wheel covers on for the photos, and have stored them in the car so that they are not damaged. The luggage compartment is clean and is not faded, but the hatch struts need to be replaced. The spare tire appears to be the unused original! This is a very obviously well cared for, garaged, original survivor LeBaron Town & Country turbo wagon. You can't get more 1980s than this... and you can cruise to local car shows with your gear in the time capsule wagon. It is fun to drive and shows well. I have described this LeBaron to the best of my knowledge; it is a 27 year old car and is sold as is, where is. If you have any questions, please ask before you bid! A bid is a contract to purchase the car if you are the high bidder! Bidders with zero or negative feedback please contact me before bidding or I reserve the right to cancel your bid. The buyer is responsible for picking up the car or for transport, though I can assist to meet a transport provider. I can store the car indoors for a short time while pick up arrangements are being made. A non refundable $500 deposit is due within 24 hours of auction end; the balance in cash or USPS money order are due within seven days of auction end. I have clear title in my name and it will be provided and the car released when payment in full has been made and funds are cleared. I hope that you will enjoy this time capsule LeBaron turbo wagon! |

Time to catch up with Jay Leno's Garage, including his Lamborghini Espada restoration
Tue, Dec 23 2014If you're already jealous of the time, effort and money that Jay Leno can devote to his massive car collection, prepare to get a little greener with envy with this latest video from Jay Leno's Garage. Instead of the usual format of discussing a model for about ten minutes and then taking it out for a test drive, this week Leno gives viewers on a tour of over a dozen projects concurrently happening in his stable. The breadth of the vehicles shown and the things being done to them run the entire span of the automotive hobby. At the same time, Jay's shop is working on just a simple restoration of his 1969 Lamborghini Espada (pictured), and at the other side of the building, the team is rebuilding a wood-bodied 1914 Detroit Electric from scratch. He eventually plans to slot a more modern electric drivetrain into it. If bikes are more your interest, there's a freshly completed Brough Superior just waiting for a ride, and if American models are your thing, a Ford Bronco is getting a Coyote V8 installed into it. You have some very specific tastes if you can't watch this clip and start wishing at least one of these vehicles could be in your own garage. Other than the personal projects his mechanics are working on in the shop, Jay gets to have them all, plus plenty more.
Fiat Chrysler recalls 4.8 million U.S. vehicles for cruise control defect
Fri, May 25 2018WASHINGTON - Fiat Chrysler said on Friday it is recalling 4.8 million U.S. vehicles over a defect that could prevent drivers from deactivating cruise control and warned owners not to use the function until they get software upgrades. The Italian-American automaker said no injuries or crashes are related to the large recall campaign but said it had one report of a driver of a 2017 Dodge Journey rental car unable to deactivate the cruise control. Fiat Chrysler, which in 2015 was hit with penalties from U.S. regulators totaling $175 million for safety lapses, did not say how much the recalls would cost. The recall addresses what Fiat Chrysler called an "extremely rare" series of events that could lead to drivers being unable to cancel cruise control. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said on Friday it "strongly encourages vehicle owners to follow a warning" to stop using cruise control on the recalled vehicles until repaired. NHTSA said drivers could overpower the system by forcefully applying the brakes until the vehicle stopped. Fiat Chrysler also said the vehicle could be stopped by shifting into neutral and braking. Fiat Chrysler shares fell more than 2 percent in premarket trading in New York on the recall. Fiat Chrysler noted that at times cruise control systems automatically initiate acceleration to help vehicles maintain driver-selected speeds, including when going up an incline. If an acceleration occurs simultaneously with a short-circuit in a specific electrical network, a driver could be unable to deactivate the function. Fiat Chrysler said vehicles may be placed in park once stopped, at which point cruise-control is canceled. The recall involves a group of gasoline-powered vehicles with automatic transmissions from various model years built from 2014 through the 2019 model year. Most of the vehicles being recalled cover the 2014-2018 model years. Among the vehicles being recalled are the Chrysler 200, Chrysler 300, Chrysler Pacifica, Dodge Charger, Dodge Challenger, Dodge Journey, Dodge Durango, Jeep Cherokee, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Jeep Wrangler and Ram 1500, 2500 and 3500 pickup trucks and Ram 3500/4500/5500 cab chassis trucks. Fiat Chrysler made the announcement going into the busy Memorial Day weekend, which traditionally kicks off the summer driving season.
Chrysler and Google launch virtual 200 factory tour [w/video]
Tue, 23 Sep 2014Google is no stranger to showing off some of the most interesting automotive destinations in the world, like the museums for Lamborghini and Ducati, or even a Tesla showroom. However, it's taking that technology even further with a new, in-depth look of the Sterling Heights Assembly Plant where the Chrysler 200 is made. Unlike these earlier online excursions, the new Chrysler factory tour is a fully guided experience that includes several 360-degree videos explaining many parts of the production process.
"Just as we pioneered a completely new Chrysler 200, we are pioneering a new way for consumers to research a vehicle. The Factory Tour is an opportunity for us to prove to consumers that the all-new 2015 Chrysler 200 is not one ever built before," said Olivier Francois, Chrysler's chief marketing officer, in the company's release.
Chrysler was already pretty proud of its nearly $1 billion in recent updates to the Sterling Heights factory having released a look at the 200's assembly process earlier this year. However, the new Google tour goes far deeper by including 12 videos, and between highlighted stops, viewers can swing the camera all over to get a full view of the action. The whole thing is an intriguing way to show the way a modern car gets built.
