Pre-Costanza Mopar Woodgrain: ’78 Town and Country
Unlike the famous-due-to-Seinfeld woodgrain LeBaron, this ’78 Town and Country offers genuine rear-wheel drive and a V8. Okay, it’s a 70s 318 and likely offers frighteningly low horsepower, but probably has decent enough torque and, let’s be honest, this thing isn’t likely going racing, anyway. The seller claims 76K original miles and, despite so-so photos,…

Way too many Starions/Conquests at the same time.
Every enthusiast knows that the general public under-appreciates the Starion and its Conquest twin. Strangely, two of each have popped up on eBay in the last few days. Okay, two are from the same seller, but still… Obviously, the manual cars will be the fun drivers. Maybe the autos have low mileage because they just…

Honey, Can You Sell One of the Cars in the Yard?
Is the woman in this photograph supervising the eventual sale and removal of one of her husbands prized yard ornaments? Many cities in TN have begun a crackdown on yards full of junk (or property maintenance codes) and this NY’er could be a casualty of that. In any case, the seller states the car was…

Take your pick: Two Mark Cross edition LeBaron convertibles (plus a bonus Dodge 600).

One might even suggest that they envied AMC so much that they bought what was left of the company five years later. These early LeBarons offer pure K-car squareness lost in the later models. Interestingly, two…

Quickie: Multiple identity crises?
Some may remember the Ramcharger, which was Chrysler’s Bronco and Blazer competitor for a number fo years. But, do you remember the equivalent Plymouth Trailduster? Most don’t. It’ll be that way soon with the Chrysler Aspen. We guess “Duster” was brought in because it was already a “successful” Plymouth model name, even though the Duster was…

Is this better or worse than an original Dodge 600 convertible?
We thought only MN12 T-Birds got this type of treatment. Clearly, we were wrong. This one’s almost too easy to pick apart, starting with the INSANE price, but we are particularly amused by the complete lack of information on the build. Did the seller have it done/do it himself? Second owner? Fifth owner? Who made…

Nicest one remaining? Perhaps, but why?
This is pretty cool – Colt Vista with 5-speed manual and 25K miles!? Does it get better? Maybe a Mitsu Expo or the JDM Chariot (same car). Click for Craigslist ad $3,800 Signal Hill, CA (AKA Long Beach) We don’t usually start of with a rear or interior shot, but the shifter is key here…
