This is the blue car mentioned earlier. It is kinda dirty in these pictures. My mom hasn't driven it since mid august but i do take it out every now and then to take my brother to basketball to give it some exercise. The car is nearly flawless with a small dent in the trunk lid that can be popped out with some dry ice. Other then needing front end alignment the car is drives awesome with a pretty peppy t1 automatic. A pretty good 100 dollar investment.

This car was a 3.0 automatic that had been in my family since new. We sold it in 2000. Nicknamed the James Bond get away car because once the car got warm that thing would smoke like most of those 3.0 mitsubishi motors would. Wasnt a bad car though. The white car is a 70 sport satelite convert that is my dads now bird clone convertible.

There's an 88 T1/auto LeBaron conv. near my house now for sale. It's gun metal metallic with a camel leather interior. In very good shape. Top isn't torn or anything. Needs a little work, but nothing major. They're asking $800 for it. I just don't have the money. Or the space for another car for that matter.

the first two are of my 89 gtc at my dad's house, when i went back home to ohio for the mopar nationals. the white car was my 90 gt. found it broke down on a road i take to work. left my name and number on the car, and they sold it to me for $200! needed a timing belt, waterpump and soleniod pack for the a604. it was a one owner with 68k miles. last monday i sold it to a friend to make room for my shadow

In need of a wash, but who washes their car that much in the winter?

Im aware of that but he was refering to "His style" of lebaron wich he called an l body.I never siad all lebarons are j bodies. There are K,J and i believe the 4 drs are H bodies. We are talking about the good looking lebarons lol.

lebaron begins with L. threw me off. At least i know the tc's a Q!!!

I wonder if we should include those in this thread lol. I figure they're pretty much a shortened lebaron with a badass 16valve T2

No they really aren't. They don't share a single body panel with the LeBaron. The door skin *may* be the exception as I've never heard any different, but EVERYTHING else is pretty much unique.

You have to remember that our J-body LeBarons were designed AFTER the TC. They are copies of that car, not the other way around.

Cool. I thought the TC came out after? Well I learned something today. Thanks. I know they look quite similar.
