It's an 87 with power everything. Wish it had been a year older so that it didn't have the crappy log type setup and such. Plan on changing that over as long as that doesn't mean much wiring. This car doesn't even have a boost gauge?!

What are the first things to be done on a log car? This car is an auto, and it doesn't get anywhere fast.

I didn't think they made a GTC untill 88. The best thing you can do is switch it over to TII.

They didn't.

and to overlord: I assume you mean a year newer? Does it have the digital info cluster (vs the backlit lightbulb setup)?

Thats the one option my 88 Premium doesnt have. I'm not sure I really care though, my Laser has it and the talking part of it gets very annoying after awhile.

Open the glove box on the Laser and reach up, you'll find a switch. Flip it... voice goes away. :)

Okay, Well it's not quite a GTC, but its power everything and turbo. Yes I mean I wish it was a year newer. Taking a look at the vaccum routing tonight and doing general tuneup.

Thats funny my log 87 baron coupe didn't run that bad. I could do some nice burnouts too if I powerbraked it. Althought mine had a fairly fresh reman turbo which i didn't know about until the car got totalled and disassembled. You can convert from log to 1 pc. without even going to smec if you you get a harness from a smec car and switch some pins on the injectors to correct for a potential lean problem on some cylinders. I think the dodge garage has some info on that.

Sorry no, not a GTS. Thought that's what they called turbo lebarons. I just have a turbo lebaron with power seats, mirrors, windows, and locks.
