Petrified Wood: 1985 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible

Definitions for pet·ri·fied: 1. so frightened that one is unable to move; terrified.  2. changed into a stony substance; ossified.  When it comes to this well preserved LeBaron convertible it's hard to pick which describes it accurately.  Personally, I am leaning towards the first one.  Find this 1985 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible for sale in Tuscon, AZ for $4,500 via craigslist.

The Kollector: 22 Chyrlser LeBarons & Town 'N' Country

Owning one Chrysler LeBaron can be easily described as an accident.  Owning two...well, it is simple to do maintenance on your cars when you just order two of everything. Sure, it's the automotive equivalent of having twins.  Three LeBarons and you are starting to get into from "paint your eyelids with little open eyeballs" levels of freakishness, BUT 22 different Chrysler LeBaroni in convertible only?  That is a whole new ball game of celebrity toenail clipping collections and hairdolls levels of insanity.  Find this collection of 22 Chyrlser LeBaron convertibles 1983-1986 offered for $500 to $2000 depending on condition.  Tip from Matt C.

Against the Grain: 1983 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible Woody


 There was a time from the 1930s through the 1950s when wood was used to augment automobile body panels. In the 1960s, actual wood was phased out in favor of decals and plastic inserts, presumably for ease of manufacture and safety reasons. By the 1980s, faux wood grain paneling had degenerated from simulation to near caricature. This is perhaps best exemplified by the Chrysler Woody LeBaron of the 1980s. Find this 1983 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible Woody sale in Brady, NE for $4,750 via craigslist.

Call Me Mr The Baron: 1988 Chrysler Lebaron Convertible

Don't you love it when you find clean low mile examples of undesirable cars offered for cheap?  Sure, you might feel guilty for the poor sap who spent a bunch of his hard earned cash when he purchased this thing new and only put 20k miles on it...but look at the minty clean convertible you can buy for the price of a high end 4K flat panel television.  Who needs high-def when you can experience life in real-def?  Find this 1988 Chrysler Lebaron offered for $3,500 in Concord, CA via craigslist.  Tip from Kaibeezy.

Sour Puss: 1960 Imperial LeBaron Sedan by Chrysler

In 1955 the Imperial transcended its role as Chrysler's top of the line automobile and became its own marque.  It was no longer the Chrysler Imperial, it was simply the Imperial -- a trick later borrowed by the artist that was previously The Artist Formerly Known as Prince.  I have no idea and even less interest in knowing what that gyrating freak wants people to call him these days, but I can tell you that this next car is not a Chrysler.  Find this 1960 Imperial Le Baron Sedan by Chrysler here on eBay bidding for $6,600 with 3 days to go, located in Greenville, SC.

A Selection of Classics from the SF Bay Area Craigslist by Kaibeezy

DT's logo guru Kaibeezy has always claimed that the SF Bay area craigslist is by far the best place to search for an inexpensive classic car (your Daily Turismo) and at first the assertion seemed silly.  Unfortunately, my local craigslist (Los Angeles), despite its favorable weather, is filled with a disproportionately large percentage of cars that represent dashed dreams and shattered realities of the central Los Angeles life. For some reason the same blight that infects the LA craigslist does not infect the SF Bay Area craigslist in the same percentage, and inexpensive decent condition classics just fall off trees.  Check out these examples with descriptions by Kaibeezy.
