Parting 89 TII Lebaron Convert

[blk86trbo]

Bought a wrecked and rusty Lebaron.

Parts that I need from it include the engine, wiring harness, wheels...probably the springs and radio/CD too.

Everything else is up for grabs. Four wheel discs. It has a gray leather interior...I don't believe there are any cracks or splits, but the drivers side bolster is wearing thin. Door panels look very nice. It has a digital climate control switch...never seen one of those before.

555 tranny seems fine...the car was driven 30 miles to my house.

PM me for more info...I can send pics if you provide me with your email addy.

I'm located an hour southwest of Chicago.

Thanks,

Paul

What condition is the Rad/IC? Looking for something that isn't needing a recore or anything.

[R/T]

[blk86trbo]

Sorry I've missed your posts in the last few days fellas...I was watching for PM's, but hadn't checked the thread.

Ryan, I intend to keep the rad/int for my van. I apologize for neglecting to list that as spoken for.

The top is repaired, and badly at that.

I also need to keep the complete engine, including the turbo.

Here's a couple pics, including an interior shot for Tracy.

Thanks,

Paul

Is the frame bent on the car? How bad is the rust?
I sent a pm.

Hey Paul how are the rear discs I could use a pair. Also how much would you need for them?

Thanks, Joseph

[BadAssPerformance]

Paul,

How many miles on it, and how much for the A555? I need to keep my collection growing.

.. and shame on you for not posting this to the SDAC-Chicago mailing list first!

p.s. gonna be at the meeting tonight? I'll bring your a-pillar pods...

[The S is Silent]

I'll give you $50 for the engine wiring harness?

[Dodge Aries K]

I would like to buy the shifter plate that's on the center console.

[WickedShelby88]

Lol I was thinking of you needing one of those Mr Aries. Looks like you found it.

[Dodge Aries K]

All depends. There may be a buyer for the whole car shell (and interior).

[blk86trbo]

Hey guys, thanks for inquiring. Please PM me if you have questions. I haven't been able to check the list daily, but I have access to my email (which lets me know if I have a PM).

Matt, sorry, but as I stated above, I need to keep the engine wiring harness.

JT, I sent you a reply.

Joseph, I may have the shell sold. The car is sitting in the grass, and the ground needs to either freeze or dry out before I can move it. When I can move it, I'm gonna get it in the air and take some pics of the underneath for the gentleman interested in the shell. If the floor looks ok, he'll be taking the rolling body and the complete interior. If the floors don't look ok, the rear brakes are yours...cheap if you want to come pull them.

Thanks again,

Paul

Matt, sorry, but as I stated above, I need to keep the engine wiring harness.

Sorry, I just re-read it. It's ok though...I already found 2.

[blk86trbo]

Gonna start tearing this apart tomorrow. My plans are to get the engine bay stripped. Most of which is spoken for in previous posts, but there are a lot of good parts still available on the rest of the car.

The gray covering in the trunk looks nice...even the formed cover that fits over the spare. All the plugs and fasteners that hold it in place are present...I'd hate to see it go to the yard...would be perfect for someone that needs a more presentable example.

The trunk lid is in nice shape. No rust visible...I may have to remove a plastic insert from the luggage rack to use on my VNT GTC, but I'd like to find the lid a good home.

Seats are decent...no rips or tears, but some stains and wear marks on the driver's seat. Leather door panels would clean up really nice! Gauge panel, boost gauge, trip computer all function.

Has a super cool digital A/C temp/fan control...works exactly as it should...not sure if I want to sell that yet, but I'm gonna post some pics.

I'm open to all fair offers...people willing to come and remove the parts themselves will get stuff for practically free...if I have to remove it myself, it will be at my convenience and I'll have to charge for my time invested.

Any questions or offers will be answered in order recieved as early as possible.

Thanks!

Spent some time this morning tearing into her...man I almost feel guilty! This was one helluva car when it was new! Not to mention how rare it is...the only consoling factor is the rust and collision damage.

Here's some pics. The trunk lid is perfect under the lip! And the trunk covering looks nice.

Please guys, someone come grab some parts off this...even if you have to drive 5 hours one way to grab some stuff, I promise the price is gonna be right!

I would like to have had this car when it was new also. I'm a little curious about the grille. If this was a GTC TII, I'm thinking the grille should have
been body color. Also did the door trim have and script? Can't tell from the pics.

just curious,
Tony

[blk86trbo]

Yeah Tony, I'm not sure if the 89's grills were body color or not. I'm thinking that maybe they started that in 90, but am not sure. It's very possible that it's non-original.

Don't have a good pic on hand of the moulding, but I think it's black with the words "TURBO GTC" in gray.
