    I thought you used to be able to offer a 2nd chance to buy to the 2nd bidder on ebay. I would do it soon before the bidder cools to the idea of owning it. Money likes speed.

    Someone brought cold hard had cash right to your door step at one time ..Dealing with people imo is the worst, and it seems about 80% are complete morons. Hopefully it turns out for ya.

    This is one of my favorite, classic quotes from a movie I like to use!

    Super nice write-up and video!! Maybe I will be seeing you in person, soon.

    Thanks. If there is anything I can answer, be sure to ask a question. I am concerned that ever panel has some dents, but they don't show on video. However, it is as solid as I claim and mechanically as described.

    Maybe this time it will finally go to a turbo mopar person instead of a Nigerian scammer, or a guy who thinks it's an automatic!

    Well this time in an interesting twist, the car simply failed to make reserve... Down a full $1k from the last auction. This is getting annoying...

    So I guess it's back off ebay for a while, and back onto the plain ol' internet.

    It works like that at the dealer auctions too. If a car doesn't sell the first time on the block, a dealer has the option to have it rerun for a fee. It usually comes at the end of the lane and invariably brings less unless the auction gods are smiling on it.

    You are right, limit its exposure for a while and when you repost the auction, change it up and give it a different look.

    True enough. This car has the stink of eBay failure all over it right now.

    I do get inquiries from time-to-time, but I know they're from all the wrong people...

    "My wife really likes the car, and the lease is up on our 2009 Explorer. She wants to know if your car has heated seats?"

    "My son is going to college and thinks having a convertible would be 'awesome'. He wants to know if the trunk is big enough for a keg."

    "My Dihatsu Charade blew-up and I need something to drive... This thing runs good, right? It's some kind of Dodge-Plymouth thing?"
    So I'll just wait for the right person to come along. I don't have the heart to turn this car into somebody's beater. Stupid I know.

    Did you know that there are only 235 turbo 5 speed convertible Lebarons made in 1992? Info from

    http://www.pbase.com/rmscott/lebaron_conv

    Production Numbers for 92 LeBaron GTC's with the 2.5 Turbo:
    Convertible; A568, 5 Speed = 235 A413, Automatic = 227 Total 92 GTC Convertible's = 462
    Coupe; A568, 5 Speed = 25 A413, Automatic = 56 Total 92 GTC Coupes = 81
    Total 92 LeBaron GTC's with the 2.5 Turbo = 543

    I've no idea where he got these stats from or how accurate they are but it says my daily driver (beater?) is 1 of 25!

    Oh and yes, the A568 is correct (that's apparently rare too as they only did that for something like '91 & 92 only.)

    If I had an income plus a little bit of disposable income, this one would so be mine.
