New to K-Cars. To buy or not to buy?
Saw this ’83 Lebaron for sale on craigslist. My concern is the engine type. Owner says it’s a 2.2 but he's not sure. I understand that the 2.6 has lots of problems and don’t want to get stuck with replacing the motor or doing Weber carb. swap.
Here is what the owner is saying:
"It has a 2.2 litre(i think) 4 cylinder, carburated engine. Automatic trans, power windows & locks & seats. Cruise & tilt wheel. Pretty much everything that was offered in 1983. Factory am-fm casette radio will not come on. Trip meter has some lights that light up but does not work. Air conditioning lost its charge sometime about 4 years ago while in storage (compressor is not froze up). Car has had 3 owners of which the last 2 have been collectors. Its been in storage and only driven once or twice a year for several years. All original, never restored. Doesn't leak fluids. Always starts right up when battery is charged."
