Description of 1990 Chrysler LeBaron

Up for sale here is a blank canvas for anyone that wants something rare and unique. It is a fully functioning complete survivor car. This was my teenage car. It wasn't titled in my name until 2003. but I've had the keys since 1997. It had 71K miles on it when I started driving it; and until 2005 it was my primary transportation. It is still titled. insured. and registration and plate is current. I still drive it from time to time just for giggles. but it's time a collector or hot-rodder with some real financial backing brought it back to shiny glory. In my county emissions are not a requirement. so I've never had it tested. I'm not entirely confident it would pass emissions in its current condition. so know that while looking at the otherwise excellent condition it's in. Of the thousands of these cars made. only 762 (according to Allpar) were V6-5 speed cars. Here's what's stock-3. 0L Chrysler (it's really Mitsubishi built) SOHC V6 141bhp (160hp net) (yes the smoker 6. I just don't feel like doing valve seals again)Disc Brakes front and rearBlue Interior w/driver's airbagPower Drivers SeatCruise ControlGlass rear window w/defrosterTrip Computer/Mileage/Average ReaderCenter Console with HandbrakeWhite Parade Cover (to cover the hole created when the top is down)Luggage Rack on Trunk LidHere's what's been added/modified1998: Aluminum "Telephone Dial" Wheels from the Omni/GLHS era. 15x6. 5/100mmGTS Springs. Struts and Sway Bar from a GTS Donor carNew Valve Stem Seals. Timing Belt and Water Pump. Hoses2003: Pioneer Head Unit (this was before I learned factory Mopar CD/Tape Players from a 1993-1997 New Yorker/LHS/Intrepid would fit plug and play) I used a quickie plug so the factory Chrysler wiring harness could remain intact. 2005: Radio Link Box- This I added between the sunvisors to allow me to turn on the radio without the key. It has two switches; the other switch was going to be for the silent alarm. but hasn't ever been hooked up to anything. Silent Alarm w/Pager- This is mounted below the drivers seat and has never been hooked up. Headlight Door Box- This is mounted on the same bracket as the Silent Alarm. and has two switches. the black one is up/down for the headlight doors. and the green one was going to be for the silent alarm and was also never used. New Valve Stem Seals. Timing Belt and Water Pump again. and hoses2006: New Muffler2008: New Radiator. Used Engine (because of the radiator). New Timing Belt. Water Pump. Hoses. I still have the engine that came out of it and can be included for an extra fee- note. I don't know if it's a numbers matching engine. I've never checked. The valve seals in the old engine are probably still good. it just isn't worth dismantling the old engine to find out2009: New Ignition Lock Cylinder and Switch (I wore it out)2013:5-speed manual conversion from a donor (wrecked) LeBaron; including all of the interior trim pieces. correct pedal brackets and correct factory shift hardware. The 4-speed electronic automatic wiring harness was retired in place rather than removed. and I have the correct manual car wiring harness. but at the time. I needed to drive it so I hardwired pin number 4 in that particular sub-harness to ground. The manual car wiring harness will be included with the car. Everything about this conversion is bone stock; so stock parts will fit and are actually readily availableNew Clutch Kit and New Flywheel set was installed when I did the 5-speed conversionNew Quick ratio GTS/Spirit RT (2. 5 turns lock-to-lock) steering rack w/power assistNew Outer Tie Rod Ends (Inners are part of the steering rack)New Front Monroe StrutsNew Power Steering Hoses and Pump install2014: The plan to repaint it included trying different paint schemes on it- hence the current look of the peeling paint from what was a spray can job. I did it partially to prevent the factory peeling from getting worse and allowing rust to start. and partially to see how it would look two-toned. Original color was white with a blue pin-stripe. (ergo. my title. blank canvas)The fiberglass above driver's side headlight cover needs to be redone. (I hate apartment complexes. they're full of drunk people who do stupid stuff in the middle of the night to your stuff)New Top (I'll never do another one. what a pain in the butt)Came with a plastic window. I should have reinstalled the glass window. The glass window will be included in the saleReplacement gauge cluster; The original one started showing empty on a full tank and 4500 RPM with the engine off; but I still have it. and it will be included with the sale also; just in case you want it. I hope that the next person or persons to buy the car will enjoy and respect it the way I have and show it the love I can no longer give it. Right now the cruise control no longer works. it needs wiper arm bushings. and as of yesterday (23Apr2015) the right rear window motor is locked up (stuck in the up position). It still runs and drives great. if you have any other questions. just ask!
