    1986 Lebaron Convertible

    Ok, guys it's time to get rid of it. body is pretty straight, with no rust holes,
    but it's got a couple of fair sized dents in it. one is in the l/f corner where some a@@^$% backed into it, same goes for the right quarter panel behind the door.
    the top is shredded, and the interior is not in very good shape.
    car is a T-1 drawthrough with a garrett turbo, it had a blown head gasket which was replaced with a 005 gasket and new headbolts.
    that's about as far as i got, head is bolted to the engine, everything else needs to be finished, so it's kind of a basket case.
    I converted the car to a 5 speed a couple of years ago, it's got a '93 523 in it, new flywheel, new clutch( 230mm standard clutch, nothing fancy) and a set of booger bushings in it. conversion parts came from a '93 shadow.
    the car has a set of beretta GT wheels on it, rear rubber is pretty well shot.
    fronts are ok.
    I had some plans for this car, but i hit my wall with it and i'm hoping someone else can bring it back to life and enjoy it

    I'll entertain any offer over $200, otherwise it's gonna go to the boneyard as the city is on my --- about this one
    let me know
    Bryan

    Those Beretta wheels look nice on there...was wanting to do the same thing years ago but had a hard time finding a full set.

    Hey Karl, let's both roadtrip to Kansas! You can drive, and I'll buy it

    i got lucky on the wheels, they were given to me by someone who was scrapping out one.
    i always liked the looks of them too.

    you guys aren't too far away really, Ottawa is located 35mi. SW of Kansas City on I-35

    yes, that's a hearse across the street, '71 caddy if i remember right.
    that guy was a little strange, but he's a good guy.
    let me know if you want it, i'll consider yours the first offer.
    although everyone i've talked to today says i'm nuts for getting rid of it.
