Thanks for welcoming new K car owners to join, I appreciate it !
I've owned a great many vehicles in the past, but this (recently acquired) 1986 Dodge Aries is actually the first Mopar for me !
It is a rust free Florida car with just 64,600 actual miles on, purchased brand new in the town of Zephyrhills, according to original warranty paperwork I found in glovebox. It was originally white in exterior color, then repainted later on, although in a brighter shade of white. It looks surprisingly straight for a car that is about 33 years old. Various minor dings here and there, but panel gaps looking uniform and good overall.
I do most of my own mechanical repairs and maintenance, but I have a lot to learn about the K car, so I'm looking forward to getting started.. The car does need one fix I know of already, the wipers do not operate.. Although I did try them when I bought the car (they worked then) but now, no wipers now when I try the switch (fuse is not blown) so I'll be looking into that, and probably will be posting soon on the repair forums here..
