ok first i'm just going to say this is a slow project lol

ok i started out with a 87 t1 (log) lebaron gts with a manual. the first thing i done was swap a new motor in becuse the block was cracked and leaking water out the back. i put a 86 t1 motor in and the turbo was bad so i swaped everything from a 88 new yorker onto it. wirring and all. i drove it for 4 months before i smashed oil pan on speed bump. pulled motor and found a bad rod bearing so its sat untill a few weeks ago. i'll update in a few...

pictures lol
when i first got it..
