The Chrysler K-Car Club

I don't know what people are telling you, mechanics work on all kind's of crap, I work on car's with engines covered in oil and god knows what. We're not afraid of it here maybe Californian mechanics are not as tough? So if you do it yourself don't be afraid of the oil and sh*t because a mechanics n...

Calm down, this is also a place where we can voice our opinions, Butch saying he'd rather scrap them all is mean but from his experience as a tech I'm sure he'd like to as with many difficult cars kill them all :lol: . But I agree its not constructive at all. I'd like to scrap most Cavaliers without...

The EPA Website http://www.fueleconomy.gov says that a 1984 2.2 3-Speed Automatic gets 21 City, 23 Combined, and 26 Hwy. Where as a 1989 2.2 3-Speed Automatic gets 21 City, 24 Combined, and 28 Hwy. So it seems there is no real difference between the Carb and the TBI except in highway figures. And to...

$500 is the mid range price around here, fairly rusty but in good enough shape to pass inspection, $200 will get you either a bad body or a bad drivetrain, $1000 will get you super good condition when they show up once in a blue moon, your best bet is the $500 one and to throw the cash at it to make...

LOL I almost spit coffee on my computer when I read 1985 LeBaron "2.6" for $4,800 bucks! I'd pay half that at most, there are very few K-Cars that I'd pay around 5-6 grand for and there usually very special ones.

Indeed, dealer's hate people not ready to spend money.

Yes most of the rust could be repaired, it would cost a few thousand dollars for a pro to do it and amateur could do it for a few hundred dollars but it wouldn't look good and it would probably take months to a year.

Sorry but that Corolla is just not safe, I've actually called the police before to have cars I've seen removed from the road and it works everytime, and I couldn't give two shits about the person who owns it as they let it get to the point that it needs to be pulled, its about keeping motorists safe...

[quote="Butch"]Total POS, I worked on one once, deservses to be distroyed.[/quote]
I second that, but not so much just the Cimmarron but the rest of the J-Body line as well.

The stories he tells us about the Corolla makes me question whether or not it should be on the road at all, I know when I see a crappy and/or dangerous car on the road I try to force it to stop, either by blowing my horn and forcing my way in front of it to put the four-ways and brakes on or by scre...
