Super nice Reliant! My first Reliant was an 82 in that color! I loved that car. I now have an 81 two door as well. Base model, one owner, but only 23K original. Would love to see more pics!

Any photos yet? Is it a good solid original or does it need alot of restoration work? Plan on doing a show quality restoration?

well heres some of the pictures of her, shes black with gold pin stripe and purple Image


2.2 liter carb, definately in need of detailing Image


Yep its very BASIC, take a look at the no chrome moldings or even wood grain trim on the dash. even the steering wheel is the queen of base. Image check out the bus shifter as well





over all its a nice little car, the only problem is that I have no room for another one, I dont want to sell my 88 as its been with me since I was 11 years old, Im not worried, god will have a plan for it, but ya enjoy my allpar mates.

Thanks for the photos. Looks like its in great shape and has been well taken car of over the years. Best of all manual trans!!!

I never saw plaid seats in a K-car before. Chrysler used to have a plaid seat option back in the 50's and called it the Highlander model.
