Thank you all for your inquiries and views. I have decided to keep the car (simply too much temptation while working on it).

Thank to 85dodge600esturbo I was able to find an old posting for the same car. This posting must have been done two owners ago but the car is still in the condition you'll see on this website. It's...

** My apologies, this is a 1987 Dodge Lancer...
I did go investigating today and the hose in worst condition was the line from the waste gate to the manifold (though I have a small "boost controller" as a bypass there). The hose coming from the...
Goddam it this is why I love this community, thanks for the input guys.
Visual inspection of the vacuum lines gave me nothing. They look intact, no cracks no tears.
One more item to mention is...
Need help with my car. My 1987 LeBaron daily driver has been undriveable with a high idle issue.
The car has a 2.2L TI Engine. When in neutral the car idles at 2100 rpm. If the speedometer is...
Update: After installing the suspension kit I gotta say I'm happy with the change. Car feels solid again, no more creaking or rattling.
You could see the crappiness of the tie rods that were in...
Thanks for the feedback! I went with the kit for now, though I will have to make a note that the ball joints are not of the utmost quality. Unfortunately the Christmas budget doesn't allow for all...
I'm hoping someone can help me with a question. I have a 2010 Caliber, not the SRT version but my issue is Caliber universal. Basically my front suspension feels worn out. Tire rods are shot and I've...
Update: So as of this morning I am under a verbal contract to purchase the Lancer. I can't confirm that this is a done deal until I have the title in my hand. But it looks as though this Lancer will...
Here's what worked on my LeBaron. I can tell you it was never removed, because the wires were resoldered after the previous person tried and failed to remove it... for an '87, this is a 28 year old...
That wouldn't be a bad idea, it's Jakub that got me in this mess in the first place!
Shoot, if this was a Shelby Lancer there would be no question as to what to do.
Do any of the Lancer...
No worries Aries_Turbo, trust me, I know where you're coming from. Luckily, this is not quite the case for me.
The LeBaron is a coupe, so yes, it's been a toin coss for me as well.
I'm leaning...
The kid is already here! Along with another one that's been here! That's why I love the idea of a 4 door sleeper.
I can't stick a baby seat in the LeBaron. As usual I appreciate all the input from...
Woah... I think I presented the dilemma in the wrong light. The issue is not so much me vs my wife. It's really a matter of which car deserves the most attention for longevity. We have a Dodge...
That's a messed up joke! And I still laughed... Yeah, the Lancer has the pizza wheels, 15". That's an impressive collection, and I'm talking about just the Shelby alone.
2 door LeBaron...
I need the input of guys who have gone thru this dilemma.
I own an '87 LeBaron, 2.2L TI. Since I've owned the car the head gasket, rear brake line, all drum hardware and shoes, front brakes and...
I'm interested in the shifter cables (if the shifter is included that's cool, but don't really need it). Can you check the crossover cable to make sure that it is P/N 4446876? If it is, what...
acannell, I'm really interested in understanding what you did here but I can't see the pics... any way you can upload them again to this thread? Assuming you've kept them handy all these years...
...
That's a good idea. But I do have to mention, I think going based on year and model for LeBarons is misleading. I'm not sure why, but if I say I have an 87 LeBaron with a 520, I will get positive...
I am in need of a shift cable. OEM part number is 4446876. This should be a shift cable (crossover) of 47.5" - 48.5" for J/G Body cars. If anyone has an OEM one that would be even better. Please only...
Update: Found where the part number on the original shift cable was at. As the Chrysler gods would have it, the number has been severely scratched off. I need the help of a parts guy, or a vendor, to...
At NO point do I give up!
But you may have a point there... as I mentioned this is my daily driver, I have very limited options to get around. Not sure if I can afford to wait 3 weeks for these...
Update on where I'm at: Received Pioneer CA 8207 cable. Overall length matched perfectly. The retaining brackets did not. The length of the ball socket to the bracket that attaches at the...
