Description
1982 CHRYSLER LEBARON
Before World War II, LeBaron was one the greatest of all the pre-war coach builders. Their stylish bodies adorned such makes as Packard, Duesenberg, Rolls-Royce, and Hispano-Suiza. In the 1920's LeBaron became a part of the larger Briggs Manufacturing Company.
In 1953 Briggs was bought by Chrysler. Along with Briggs manufacturing ability, Chrysler obtained the rights to use the LeBaron trade mark. While the market for coach built automobiles essentially ended with World War II, the name LeBaron still had cache. For over forty years, LeBaron was used to designate Chrysler's premium models.
What we are offering is a very smart looking 1982 LeBaron convertible. Based on the K-car platform (the platform that saved Chrysler the first time) this was the first convertible offered by Detroit since 1976.
This LeBaron two-door drop-top is loaded. It has power steering, power top, A/C, power brakes and wire wheel hub caps. Powered by Chrysler's unbreakable 2.2 liter in- line 4 mated to a 3-speed automatic. It is painted red with a matching red interior white canvas top. All this with only 23,831 original miles.
Estimate: $8,000-$12,500
