My K-car Trio

Postby 88 aries » Thu May 14, 2009 12:49 pm

my 88 Aries 85 Aries and my 86 Reliant Image

this picture you can see the damage that external damage that my 85 has suffered but im sure its happy now, living with 2 other K-cars Image

back end shot, notice that the 85 doesnt have the K at the end, thats because in 1983 they eliminated the K and the k returned in 1986 to the trunk lid. Image

Such a nice trio! My first K was an '87 Reliant; same blue except I had some silver plastic 5-spoke wheel covers from Target. Still looked ok though... But yours has the wheel covers I want so bad! I love that style. And they look even better with painted centers.

They look great! My favorite is your Reliant but I guess I am just partial because it is identical to mine. When my computer savvy friend and I have some time I'm going to try to get some pictures of my cars on the forum. I showed my 1986 at the end of April and took a few pics of it then.

Question. Is mine the only Aries with Black Headlight Bezels? I see Justin's Aries are all chrome. I know the Reliant's were chrome but I didn't think the Aries were chrome. Can anyone explain to me?

well, my 88 had the black ones 2 years ago, but i was sick of shining them with back to black, so i found some from an 86 Aries in the junkyard and added them. my 85 is original from the day it was born.

My headlight bezels are cheap, black plastic from 1988. They are starting to deterioate from Cali Sun. They are turning yellow and need to be replaced. I want to get metal headlight bezels that I can paint black. Wonder where I can get some.

This is a wonderful little party of K's. It is amazing that you found three in the same color, generation, and in such good condition! Congratulations and keep them all nice and running.

Come to think of it, if you find a light blue Lebaron and replace one of the Aries' with it, you'll be all set with a true K-trio. But this one is nice too! 8)
